Hello! WP Bench often reveals the secrets of the new Windows Phone devices, this time highlighted device called Nokia Phi. In this device, the system is installed Windows Phone OS 8.0.9698.0. Build number is significantly different from the known assembly Tango 8773! It is very interesting, isn't it?

I don't like the name at all, hopefully it's just a test unit. I'd love to see the actual scores tho :/

WP Bench scores can be faked… I don't really trust this.
And now it has the Nokia Lambda with 8.0.9638. They're greek letters (codenames in my opinion)

If you look at WP Bench at this time you will see: Nokia
PureLambda OS 8.0.9842
this is a newer version than the Nokia Phi, and the name is PureLambda... the Pure part of the name maybe reveils that a Windows Phone also will have an 41Megapixel Camere just like the Nokia PureView 808....
All except the Lumia Phi are fake...

The short answer is no. The easiest way for ports to be made is to use similar/identical hardware that is running the desired platform. Therefore seeing as there isn't any similar hardware running WP7.5 then it would be insanely hard.

1. WP7 is a closed-source operating system, its hard to modify it like implementing other drivers.
2. The exynos processor is a very unique component, no wp7 phone uses such a processor, its a hard workt to rewrite nearly the whole os.
and these are only 2 arguments, why we will never get wp7 on our sgs2.

thanx for quick reply , i didn't know that windows is closed-source and it's so hardware demanded.
The one and only not-WP7-phones to run a Windows Phone are HD2 and Toshiba TG-01. Those are WM phones and I don't think that it's possible for any Android device to run WP7.
And I used it quite a bit when I still had my HD2. Believe me-Android is way better .

Hi everyone!
Searching from news in Navifirm saw today that this version is rolling out to our Lumia, anyone knows about it? Flash it or not?
Does it worth?
Great search!
Unfortunately I cannot find it. The latest version I can find using navifirm 1.7+ is the 1600.2487.8107.12070.
Probably tommorow on the upcoming Microsoft event, Nokia will release new Tango (aka refresh) firmwares for the Lumia.
Nevertheless, as anyone download this and tried it?
Hi, i don't have this in my navifirm+ v1.7, if you can upload we can test this. Thanks.

Do you think MS will release WP8 to Lumia 800? I got this phone only last night, so i'm really ignorant regarding all this.

It isn't yet clear if Microsoft is going to make the the Apolo compatible with existing phones.
There have been a lot of rumors and sayings on this but nothing official.
I think today is the day they will clarify this topic, but I believe that, with Nokia backgrounds on providing frequent updates, at least the flagship phones (Lumia 800 and 900) will be able to be updated.
Let's cross fingers and wait they have the good sense to make wp8 compatible our phones.
UPDATED: The news aren't good with T-Mobile saying: «a statement posted by a T-Mobile Germany representative that the handset definitely won’t be receiving the update. The latest information comes after T-Mobile customers pinged the operator asking when the handset was due to be released on the network.»
NO WP8 to existing LUMIA or WP phones!
All the phones will be DEAD! specially NOKIA!
Well, i figure out after a clean cache that firmware on Navifirm went out, someone was not supposed to put it online, so thats why quickly disappeared.
About Windows aka Apollo 8 , nobody at least Microsoft or Nokia can afirm that, we can only especulate and personally i think that will cause Lumia 800 and 900 are the flagship of Windows Phone, if they wont update it will be like a totally shame. Imagine if Apple launched iOS 6 only to run in the new iPhone coming...

im using the china variant tango past a month now, without FB integration but with wifi sharing and a VERY VERY NICE BATTERY BACK UP, im happy!
Well, it's official.
Although Microsoft's newly unveiled Windows Phone 8 boasts exciting features like more customization options and integration with voice-over IP, one unpleasant suspicion we had about the new mobile OS has been confirmed: current Windows Phone devices won't be able to upgrade to WP8.
That Nokia Lumia 800/900 we've just bought! Consider it a obsolete for the next year :-(.

ROFL not really.
So, What is the version about?
Is it possible to install Android 4 on Nokia Lumia 920?
Unfortunately not at this point in time, Many users would love to have a dual boot option, Set a bounty to the Dark Forces Team to work on HSPL and if there is enough interest then may be work will begin
Either way it will not be happening for a very long time.
Yes, you just need the boot floppy.
i want Android too.
Not much love in WM8 now.
According to the reviews I read getting HSPL for the WP8 devices is close to impossible. (although that was said about a lot of things) I personally would however not want Android on this awesome device even if someone paid me for it

Buy an Android phone then. Problem solved.
These aren't desktop computers you can just load any OS onto, they are complex embedded devices.
There is a surprising lack of compatibility on ARM processors, so you're better buying the phone with the OS you want to run.

Have to agree, why get a WM8 phone if you want to put Android on it?
HD2 was also a wm6.5 phone, right??
But I don't think there are a lot of HD2 still running wm6.5.
Why people keep porting different OS into it? They can just buy an android device, problem solved, too.
I think there will be more fans if 920 can be ported other OS.

What is "WM8"?
There are more than enough Android phones bro.
You bought the wrong phone if you really want Android
the Lumia 920 is pure Windows Phone, you can fell the power and style it
radiates
There was not a single port of Android to a WP7 phone and almost all of them had HSPL. When looking into HSPL for Nokia though some Devs decided it was to hard to crack - I would guess with Secure Boot this has not gotten easier.
So all in all: it is highly unlikely that you will see an Android port for the Lumia phones or any other WP for that matter. If you don't like WP8 and want an Android device: sell the Lumia and buy an Android - everything else seems likely to just frustrate you to no end.
I'm wondering if there are Android ROMs for Lumia hardware. Nokia's hardware is cheap and good - it would be nice to run Android on it.
Anyone know any other hackers from Nokia that are running it on their personal phones.

i think ROM isnt right. You need a whole OS with kernel i dont know what else.
i'm not a dev, but i think thats pretty impossible....maybe if you have all the sources and driver and a big team... something like microsoft
and nokia isnt relly cheap although
no, it's impossible. lumia supports only windows phone and so far nobody found solution how to install android on those devices. if u had nokia n900 then this wouldn't be a problem but you can't do anything with lumia );

Not possible in current situation.
Though I have been hearing rumors that Nokia was supposedly developing Android ROMs for their Lumia series which was under very secret testing. If you have any of those top secret devices then maybe......

Actually that's because Nokia can unlock the bootloader and sideload any OS onto it.
@ OP: If you find a way to unlock the qualcomm bootloader, you can install Android onto it, however, that doesn't seem possible at the moment
Hi Everyone,
I am a user of android phone and now I want to switch to windows phone but I have a question about the speed of windows phone. I think windows phone has slow speed comparison to android phone.
Don't really think so. I recently switched from HTC HD7 with 7.8 to Galaxy S4. I'd say with all the bloatware Samsung put in, my stock S4 is way slower than my WP7 which is... 3 years old? and way lower in hardware spec.
Generally speaking, I'd prefer WP over Android but I can't get the Nokia 1020 on my network...
I had Lumia 920 before my s4, in my opinion the s4 stock is slower than the lumia 920. But after I rooted and installed the 4.4 gpe rom the s4 is way faster than the lumia 920.
A friend of mine has a Lumia 620, and despite its low specs (1 GHz dualcore, 512 mb), it is very responsive.
I've also developed some D3D11 code for it, and it ran very well. In my experience, Windows Phone 8 is very fast. I think a big difference is that their .NET implementation is much faster than Dalvik, and not so sensitive to lagging.
both are really up to the mark.....
but i find WP a edge over android.....(when almost internal space is full almost)....:victory::victory:

I am also on WP side. It's incredible how even the cheapest phones with weak hardware run as fast as android flagships.
Hi,
I am big android fan ,I have been using android since I owned my first smartphone.
I also owned one windows phone lumia 520. Let me tell you that windows OS is fastest among ios and android.
Problem that windows phone that had is level of customization that you can do with android and war with google.
Microsoft like apple and other closed os is making device with best combination of software and hardware.So you can forget about smoothness because there is no problem in that.Real question to ask when you want to own windows phone is level of freedom you want from your OS(interms of Apps,Roms,Themes etc.etc).
Google ecosystem is simply very strong.So just see if level of customization in windows ecosystem suits you or not.
Thanks,
I hate Windows Phone: it's too simple UI, no apps,.. you know. Android is Open Source, I love it.
But you can speed up WP with removing applications .
It depends on the phone
It really depends more on the specific phone than on the OS. You can get a low end WP or Android phone that will be a little laggy. You can also get a high end WP or Android phone whose processor will not even be challenged.
Having said that, I have the lowest of the Lumia line, the 520, and find it's speed to be fine and animations are smooth. Speed should not deter you from getting a WP. The only knock against WP IMO is fewer apps in the store. On the other hand, not every Android app works on every Android phone so that knock is also slightly mitigated.
As a mobile app developer I use all kinds of phones and tablets every day. I prefer the simple and clean interface of WP but that's just my opinion.

Well mate after the Cyan upgrade wp is very much fancy, I was android user since 2009 and this year bought a Lumia 720 and is better than any andorid device with 1GB of RAM wp is faster than android you can compare any Andorid with 512 RAM and any WP with same RAM and Wp app's fly.
I'll stay on WP for a long time until android with all they resorces and open code show they're better than WP.
i bought one windows phone from kingsbuying.com ,even
though it is non-brand ones at cheap price like under 100$ ,
but i thought its speed is faster than s3 which i have ever used before .
so i thought windows one must be better android .

The speed of any Nokia Lumia is great! I have been using windows phone since the release to developers.
Web browsing sucks, apps are limited, its a good/decent work phone but would shoot myself if it was my personal phone. I have the Nokia 920
Expensive Android and WP phones are comparable in speed, but low end WP models are faster and smoother than Android. You can compare low end Lumia or WP HTC and any Android phone for the price, lumia will be a clear winner.
I wonder what I would be doing with a windows phone ?.
With all those limitations, if only they were a little open with stuff like sharing apps, theme customizations etc, windows phones suck.
I‘m only waiting for the day when opensource will take over, or maybe when windows will switch to opensource, but untill then Android rocks.
