No it wasn't. Windows 8 has not and will not be released to the public for arm devices.

LOL where do u get ur news?

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-18301673
attachment for you who are outside the UK and can't see the video, im assuming it was a galaxy tab unless anybody else has got any brighter ideas rather than mocking me

Actually I am almost sure it is a Samsung slate 7 which is an Intel i5 tablet. And nobody has yet mocked you

Some people live in small worlds that don't have SEARCH functions

I thought I'd ask here but clearly that was the wrong idea since this place is full of condescending people who just like to berate others rather than providing answers

I think that classed as mocking.
Since I got my answer this thread can be closed since some people aren't being constructive enough

Well your question was valid but you're the one stating win 8 has been loaded on the gtab. So its you who's misinforming us.

You need to search before asking or commenting. Search for the exact words I wrote Samsung slate 7 and you will see that it is an 11.6" tablet from the search results without even clicking to results.
People here are expecting a little bit of search before asking something. Because things can get out of control so easily and forum can get filled with garbage data. As you say so that needs management. Why not make a little search than ask people and use more resource

Android is also open source

Just because something isn't open sourced do sent mean it can't be done. If you have learned anything by now you need to. Apples os wasnt meant to be put on a PC but if the hardware supports it so it has been done. . There are talented people out there that thrive to done what isn't suppose to be.
There are ways of bypassing all that legal stuff.

Yeah, but HP didn't deliberately design the BIOS to exclude other OS's from running. MSFT has stated plainly that its Win8 for ARM will only run on tablets where the manufacturer has locked out other OS's at the hardware level.

With a question like that, you bought the wrong phone.
Try this :

Investors fled GPS-makers' shares today after Google announced it would offer free turn-by-turn GPS directions in its Android phones and as a service for other mobile phones, like Apple's iPhone.
Garmin shares dropped 17% and TomTom shares dropped 21%.

If you want/need Garmin, buy an iPhone instead. Pretty simple solution if you ask me.

Don't think ChromeOs will boot on our phones.
Also it's said focus will be on tablets.

I don't see this new OS coming on smart phone. I have read anywhere that jelly bin is for tablets. And it suppose to be for that only as ICS is in very early stage they can not ship new OS for smart phone.

and anyway the govt is allowing this 35$ for 20$ as student discount so 1 tab per student..
I have seen the specs, it's not a superb tablet (just like the Yarvik Tab211 I use for reading)
But it's nice to play with and trying to get more out of it
Allready working on getting ICS/CM9 build for my Tab

Transfer win 8 and compatible sammy drivers to a tar file and flash .
Will it break your phone yes almost certain but hey this is development suck it and let us know how you get on .
PS if it works don't forget to pay the rather large licence fee to Microsoft .

The most you can do is "apparently" get the windows 8 interface by installing a windows 8 launcher. There are a few in market.

I really wonder why you did buy an Android phone in the first place if you want to use Windows on it? It`s like saying, how can I install IOS on an Android phone? It makes no sense. If you want Windows sell your device and buy a Nokia Lumia.

Dude, I gave up on that conversation ages ago. People don't listen anyway...

[Q] is there any work out there to get 4.4.4 to work on AM2?

Just wondering if we can get CM11 or something else on here and if it will work?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
For CM11 you'd probably have to message their team and see I'd they can help us out. I'm sure the version of KK that's released for the Chinese version of this phone could be ported but it seems like nobody can or is interested in doing it. Sadly it just seems like there's no development for this thing at all
Stock/rooted?

Because none of us are developers or know what to do. If I knew how to port a ROM, I'd get CM11 on here ASAP, trust me.

Personally I don't see us getting KK for this device. That would be ridiculous but if they can openly post on their website that other variations of the device are getting it but will not confirm we are then I'm thinking we wont. Hopefully some of the Devs who got these things at the event can port something for us from the Mate 7 or another variation of the Mate 2

That would be really dumb if all their other phones are getting updated except the one phone they sell here. I hope they recognize this.
That being said, I wonder why they just gave out 15 of these to developers. No other company would do that lol. Their Google Plus page even said "custom ROMs are right around the corner" or something like that. Maybe we'll get an official custom ROM, like the One Plus One with its custom CyanogenMod?
Of course I'm just speculating haha, only time will tell.

That would be sweet. An official custom ROM. I like the sound of that. We can dream until they either burst our bubble or deliver. [emoji4]

Doesn't matter to me. GOING IN, I figured from the past look at Huawei, they provided little to no updates to their devices.
So, going in, I knew it wasn't going to get KK. Don't really care! JB4.3 has been ROCK SOLID with no lockups, lags, problems
of any kind. Heck, I don't even root it! It "just runs". I don't want to screw around with unstable builds, don't have time as this is
my bread & butter for work.
