so is it possibly to port that.:highfive:
Wow!

No it isn't, its ZTE Skate Acqua but it's still an Android smartphone
However it's a ARMv7 phone with a Qualcomm MSM7227A chipset
These phones have the same hardware so they probably used roms from them

Technically it should be because all Windows OS'es come with a big pack of drivers so does WP and the binaries seem to be compiled for ARM generic.
And the WP emulator runs on ARMv6 :victory:
However currently porting it is dangerous as Microsoft sues people doing it, perhaps when Microsoft releases WP8 if they will no longer care about WP7 then only it can be ported
but working audio and other sensors is still next to impossible as not everything is identical between those devices.. still good to see some kind of hacking

Actually if i remember correctly Microsoft provides Development kits to manufacturers and Developer phone owners which include all supported chipset drivers, so someone might have gotten his/hers hands on them
So all in all a port should be possible.
But to be honest we shouldnt expect this or

That's definitely not a Blade.
Think that's just a hardware swap. It's impossible to port WP7 to a 600MHz armv6 device (WP7 requires a 1GHz armv7 Snapdragon chip).
WP7 also needs a DirectX9 rendering-capable GPU, which the Blade does not have.
Lol nokia 610 has adreno200 only... And read comments which shows the model number

Our SGSII is probably getting ICS right? But any idea on when will that happen?
And is there any change that someone makes WP7 Mango rom for SGSII?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
ICS is supposed to come out within the next couple of months on google phones, so add another 2 - 3 months for a Samsung release.
WP7 is not open source so the only way to port it would be if there was an identical Samsung WP7 phone on the market, which there isn't. So, unless that happens, we wont see WP7 on the GSII.
As far as i know u need the specific qualcomm snapdragon chipset for wp7 so it won't be possible on exynos.ICS Q1 2012 maybe....

But maybe cyanogen will port it sooner

What about the new released Samsung Focus S? Does this make it possible Now? It seems to be VERY similar. I could't find out what the actual specifics are of the hardware, but the screen seems identical.

Hi All,
Is it possible that install windows 7 rom on neo ?
Very improbable.....:
Wm7 is proprietary closed software, even if you found one for similar hardware you wouldn't have the exact drivers, they would have to be written from scratch, which lets face it phones are obsolete within a year or two so can't really see anyone reverse engineering....
And before anyone mentions hd2 that was a windows phone that has android ported to it a completely different kettle of cats.

WP7 on Xperia Neo is a waste of good hardware,because,excepting UI,WP 7 is much weaker platform than Android.Trust me,i've worked 1 week with a Lumia 710,and it was horrible.If you want WP7 UI,you can install Launcher 7 from Market,MILocker with WP7 theme,zune player,wp7 contacts,messaging 7 and wp7 email,and you'll have a complete wp7 ui,with Android OS.

Its ok, i just want clarify my question. I know we are on the better platform and i love it,
Thanks to all !!!
I wanted to know if we can port Windows 7.5 OS or symbian.
I know and I agree android is the net and that is why I am use Xperia Neo
Btw, symbian wasn't bad. I used more than 6 symbian phone
I also have iPhone 3G but I gave it to my sister cuz ios is really pain in the neck.

Totally agree with this... android is Open Source and hence can be worked on and ported to some devices.

I don't think so!
Thnks for the launcher 7 idea, i would try it if it feels the same. but i believe it wont have the same push mail service as wm7.
I don't understand...

Because android is open source it can be ported to other devices... However wp7, iOS, symbian are not open source so they cannot be ported.

i dont know why we r having this topic in 1st place
Pretty improbable to happen. WM7 is not open source, so you would need to spend a lot of time (and probably money too...)
And just to remember that it is very difficult to a different system, such as the WP7 android on a device, fully functional, stable ... you will have many problems with incompatible ...
Hi,
as hardware are really similar, you guys think it is allowed to install a HTC One X rom on the XS ?
Cheers
Not similar at all so no.
Sent from my LT26i using Tapatalk 2
LOLing at the OP.
The OneX is a QUAD CORE and the XS is a dual core just for starters. All the hardware is completely different. Had a few joints before you came on XDA did you?
And what !
PC have many different hardware configs, but all can run i.e. Windows

If you want sense UI go to dev section there is a rom with sense UI I think.

Yes, but it seems it is not maintained anymore
Anyway, thanks for your answer.
i am going to try to port an htc sense rom (4.0) to the P
an port to the s would be possible after that
Good news, keep us informed
i figured that the galaxy S III is a storng quad core device so can it run windows?
Does Microsoft support the phone? CPU, chipset, drivers? If yes then you can.

No, because windows is closed source and xp/7 even has no arm support, but you can run linux (I.e. ubuntu on it).

No madness. Even I did Google few months earlier. The answer is big no because MS Os is a closed source. If it wasn't xda developers would be the first hunter.

I wish I could experience the wp7 or wp8 in this beast. Simply for fun.those animation effects and all really eye appealing. HTC hd2 able to run both. But it's a wp phone. Hope someday someone brings a port!! Though hopes not much up!!

Hello everybody.
Sorry in advance, I suppose that this question should be a sort of XDA trending topic during these days. However after a little search, I didn't find anything similar on the matter. Hence I'm opening a new thread. Feel free to close it if necessary
I suppose that somebody is already working on a "Google Edition" of i9300. A vanilla AOSP. Would it be so different from a classic CyanogenMod or AOKP?
Thank you for your answers.
Peace.
Will just look like the nexus but with a better camera and new bootanimation

No it is not possible to directly port it as the Google Ed. phone runs Qualcomm's Snapdragon 600. The i9300's sorry excuse of an SoC is Exynos 4.

What's so bad with Exynos? When this device came out it was a beast compared any other on the market. So far we have a well established base of development and mods.
There is nothing wrong with Our SOC other than its now older than the newer devices.

Yes, it's your opinion and you're entitled to one, but you're wrong when you say that there's nothing wrong with Exynos 4. Though I bet no SoC is per definition "perfect".

Not as fast as it could be if the sources for the Exynos based processors were available.
To answer OPs question technically it is possible but it will require a lot of time and effort ..not to mention a lot of skill as well...the reason being both are quite different phones with different SoCs ..it would be somewhat easier to do it from the AOSP source code but as everyone already knows without documentation from Samsung that is again a difficult prospect ...none of the devs want to invest time in a project which they already know will be a a failure ...this is not about which is better TW or pure Google experience but about having a choice.
