12.04 runs on my amd64 single core pretty good....
Minus the fact that it's absurd I need to use command line for basic functions covered by windows gui for about 15 years... Frickin Linux people love feeling like their doing something special by using a command line... Like its 1993..
That said it's silly my phone has better specs than my Windows 7 desktop but MAY not perform so hot on this...

As a very competent windows AND DOS user since my first upgrade to dos 6.1 and having computers since my atom (that ran off cassette tapes in the 80's) I think I can easily state that if the ubuntu for phone release is anywhere near as incompetent a release as 12.04 is Linux will die a highly unfortunate death.
The Linux community needs to get out of its own way to get up to date.. And FAST.... I LOVE computers / tech etc and I can deal with command line etc.. I'm not even angry... I am however a realist and the average user IS looking for an iPhone these days will NOT put up with command line to do ANYTHING like a list wifi/bluetooth connected devices or history...

Does anyone know how to convert a android Sprint evo ( HD2 ) to windows 6.5?
Has it been done?
All my software is windows based and I want to upgrade to HD2.
If someone can give me some direction and it has been done that would be nice. I have changed roms on my phone before but never PLATFORMS....
Can it be done?
Or do i need to buy a HD2 windows from Tmobile and unlock it?
Thanks for all the help
Chris
seriously ????
NO you will have to buy a hd2
So you want windows mobile on evo?
There is no way. They can't port it, since they dont have any 4G driver for Evo on WM. but i may be wrong
How about asking this on Evo's Forums?

If you need WinMo phone, you either need to change carrier and get a HD2, or you need to get the Sprint Touch Pro 2.

Um...nope...you can't "unlock" an HD2 to work on Sprint. Sprint operates on a CDMA network...T-Mobile uses GSM. Phones from the two carriers are hardware incompatible. Sorry...
Why would you Convert an EVO to an HD2(regarding your software)?

It is so 'state of the art' that Google has a nice open backdoor and can add and remove apps to and from your phone any time they like. (And no doubt before long hackers can walk through and pilfer your data.)

I've also heard talk that some Android apps won't even show up or be downloadable from the market if your phone is rooted, (which my wifes is )
They are not the same device. Diff hardware, they both have 4.3" screen and similar body style, but that's about it.
Hell, a bunch of us are wanting the android OS ported over to our HD2s, funny how the grass is always greener on the other side.

I see but why should you be afraid from simple viruses.After all it's a matter of time before someone do something about this.
I was just telling that Android is now the winning platform and WM is dying.
As for WP7 I see this OS to be too 'Serious'.So probably it will not make it.
Two years ago There was life in applications for WM but now a lot of them are no more updated and we are left with old apps while all the devs have moved to Android.
He is very lucky to have an EVO and we are not even seeing new WM builds.

AMEN to that .....
Both Android and Iphone have backdoors that allow the "Almighty Creators" to access your phone and tell you what apps you can run ... Not just a Network provider telling you what you can run on your phone, but the damn maker of the OS ..
Don't get me wrong Android is a great OS but it has its shortfalls as does any OS.
I use WinMO because , it may not be an open source OS, but it is a very hackable OS, and I guess I am just a control freak that way ....

He may appear to be the first, but certainly not the only one. I'm just sayin'. Even with the lack of support, and none going forward, WM6.5 is a familiar OS, and that is the draw. I ended up on this forum seeking answers to the very same questions. I've had my htc EVO 4G for only a week. I am a newbie when it comes to "Rooting" and adding custom ROMS, although I did just complete the Rooting process, successfully. I think the phones speed, and Sprints 3G network are very fast! I don't particularly "like" the UI, it feels sort of cumbersome. For being an "iPhone killer", they needed to make the UI less block-like. I am not pro-iOS, nor con-Android. I guess for me, it was more the network and the fact I didn't want a slider phone. If the iPhone was available on the Sprint network, that's what I would have.
I know you guys will rip me apart, but that's OK. Like I said, I am a newbie!
One more thought; yes, the grass does always appear to be greener on the other side, but unless you go to the other side, you can't know for certain if it is or not.
Thanks,

I got to thinking... Android is awesome, and what if Google decided to develop a whole new OS specifically designed for a PC? I mean, Android is a phone OS, and with the introduction of Honeycomb it is the very first real tablet OS. They also have Google TVs that run the same OS concept. The next step would be to take over the desktops and the laptops, yes? I think it would be great to see. Ofcourse they would have to adapt a lot of things to make it work and feel like it was made for a computer, like how Honeycomb is doing now in the tablet world.
I can see this happening for sure. If it became a reality and got a stable release... would you think about dropping your Windows and Macs for it? I probably would! I love Google and everything they do. I want the complete Google experience for all my devices!
I wonder what it would be called? Google PC, Chrome PC/PC Chrome, Project Google, or just OS Google/Google OS? I haven't the slighest idea what it would really be called. Lol.
Thoughts? Ideas? Let 'em out!
Google has a hell of a lot to do before they can even compete in the full-blown OS. Mac has a foothold in the graphics design, while Windows has the PC gaming market secured aside from the usual office productivity stuff. Linux is trying (have been for decades), but can't really compete and thus relegated to a small niche market. The way I see it, if Google does enter into the OS fray then they'd just get some of the Linux share which isn't that big to begin with.
Google already has an os http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Chrome_OS i was in the beta and it is really good but not at a level where I would drop ubuntu and Backtrack

Well I'll be darned! The latest stable release was only a few days ago. I know I remember seeing something about a Google OS once before awhile back, and I couuuuld have done a Google search like I always do, but I wanted to post on the awesome xda forums before I did that! Cool thanks!
And I guess I was close at guessing the OS name huh? Lol.
Also, I saw Google Chromebooks at either CES 2011, or Google IO 2011. The Chromebook uses the internet as an OS. Apps, movies, writing up a text document... all done over the internet with web apps, unlike Windows which you can do this natively through the desktop itself. This concept seems like a neat idea... everything is done from the internet instead of the desktop.

They have the potential to pull it off though. They are going through the same thing with Honeycomb tablets. Everyone seems to think the iPad is so amazing, but the OS is that of a iPhone, thus making it a ridiculously oversized phone. Honeycomb is the first to change that, and it will take time to perfect, but it will get done. And since Android is taking over, I can see them perfecting the Google OS for computers in due time. And when the time comes... I'm pretty sure it will have a nice impact, again considering Android is taking over and Google itself has always been boss status.
It won't happen in a day but it will happen. Windows did not become a household name in a day you know. Many people put the idea down and knocked it until... you guessed it! It became a hit, and it was all along. People just would not accept it at first.
Check it out.

That's what I was looking for. Because yes, Chromium OS, everything is done over the internet. I am looking for an actual desktop OS that makes use on the touch screen PCs. Seems logical and a good idea to me.

Indeed. It is pretty much a web OS that has no actual desktop. I wish they would make a real desktop OS like what Honeycomb is to tablets. They need to make that happen on the PC world with the Android Market and all.

Heh, yeah. It's a custom built PC with the best parts available to me.
The video for Bluestacks read me like a book when it said something like "Do you have a touchscreen PC and would like to run Android on it?" I am currently waiting for my custom built all in one touchscreen beast machine PC to be delivered in a few days. I wanna load Bluestacks up on this baby as soon as it becomes available.
It would be great if Android apps just ran natively inside Linux instead of having to use a crappy emulator from Google.

I want to try Windows 8 on the S3. Everyone knows it is possible but nobody knows who is working on it nor when it will be available.
I dont think people will bother in porting Windows Phone 7.5 but when Windows PHONE 8 comes out then people will try.
But what about the full beta OS of Windows 8?, just like in the past people were porting Ubuntu over to Android Handsets.
Lets be honest Windows Phone 8 (if it is what it claims to be) will leave Android and Google dead in the water.
Personally, I'm more than happy with Android. If you really want to make this happen though, good luck, but if you are only trying to start a flame war, then please do so somewhere else.

you know guys, i think android is the best mobile OS and indeed it is, but some times i am thinking maybe the future will be for windows phone, it is just a feeling, but if we look back to the 90's when windows 95 came out, a lot of people were saying it will fail, it is stolen it is, it is ...etc., but look now, windows is every where.
Microsoft now is taking the right track of developing the windows phone OS, even if we don't like it they are doing a great job and this job will take them some were.
Oh please. You haven't even seen it and you claim it will be better than anything else.
well seen as windows 8 is all closed source getting to to even boot would be a nightmare!

I honestly couldn't think of a worse OS for a mobile device. I liked windows os when i had xda's from years ago. then i had iphone and loved that, then moved to android which to me will be the best os for years to come.
the latest edition of windows phone, with tiles . . . . rubbish idea IMO!!!
At least with android you can have what you want where you want and have a good old desktop experience.
Android all the way i say!!
To the OP . . . good luck in your quest to run windows phone 8 on your gs3. :laugh:
Paul.
If you ask this it feels like you say "Let's port iOS to SGS3." Android is the best OS ever. Not because I'm saying that no because everyone says that. And WP8 is even weaker. Which Smartphones will get that? Nokias, Xingxings or other that. Android is #simplythebest! Sorry bout that but this had to be!

Enjoy your Windows/Apple slavery....personally I like my freedom
Where there is a will there is a way. If the HD2 can have Android and Windows Phone 7.5, then the S3 can certainly do it aswell.
And to those who think that Windows 8 will not be good and it is just another lame Microsoft attempt etc..
Imagine a day where you could flash ROMS and edit system files without a PC. You think Mobiles will ever allow you to flash another mobile??
Not in the next 10-15 years at least. Mobiles are largley entertainment and communication based.
Where as productivity and production-power will always remain with WINDOWS PCs. Hence, ''WINDOWS'' - Mac is a overated system which will never find a place for Mobile developers.
Why? Because of the price and the lack of customization. -- JUST LIKE iOS.
Windows 8 and Phone 8 will change the surface of Mobile in such a way that it will kill of Apple and then (sadly) Droids.
Android is cool and customizable OS but can be more unstable and insecure then any other.
At least with Windows there is security --- whether on a Phone or PC.

Porting android to a new device is relatively easy, because we have access to the source, hence android on HD2. Porting a closed source OS, windows 8, to a new device is a magnitude harder and illegal to boot.

And to those who think that Windows 8 will not be good and it is just another lame Microsoft attempt etc..
Imagine a day where you could flash ROMS and edit system files without a PC. You think Mobiles will ever allow you to flash another mobile??
Not in the next 10-15 years at least. Mobiles are largley entertainment and communication based.
Where as productivity and production-power will always remain with WINDOWS PCs. Hence, ''WINDOWS'' - Mac is a overated system which will never find a place for Mobile developers.

Hi everyone,
This is a post to existing ROM developers. A childhood dream of mine has always been to create a technology that makes any type of connected device intelligent in a general way. This is a goal that is now real in version 1.0 and is currently being integrated into an automation app.
You can see a CONCEPT video here (though, because Engadget never talked to me, the entire article is based on assumptions from the author. There is an awesome data privacy/control model in place and the tech doesn't "think" for you lol):
Doesn't look like I'm senior enough to post a link. So Google "Kimera Systems Engagdet" and the video will be the first result
And a recent tech meetup presentation with quick demo here (what tech can do today and how it is expected to evolve in 2014):
In the ideal world this type of AI is integrated deeper into the ROM to enable a real device experience rather than an app experience. And that's the point of this post. At some point we'll open up the framework (a API to a user's "personal cloud" - Because each user owns their own data and can host their cloud anywhere they want, each users API will have its own endpoint url) for anyone who wishes to integrate AI into their ROM, launcher, or app. But today we're too early for a general release and instead looking to partner with an existing developer who can see the long term potential.
If you're a ROM developer and interested in at least learning more, PM me and we can have an initial chat.
PS. Has to be for a Sprint Samsung Note 3 ROM. Why? I have that device and obviously for me to support you on development .... well, it would be ideal for me being able to run your ROM And also, since Note 3 is by far the absolute best device out there, I'm curious how you can innovate the user experience with this technology to something even better few people can imagine.
This sounds really interesting. I would like some more info if possible, unfortunately just that since I don't have an N3 (Sprint S3 instead).
And here's the link for others: http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/13/kimera-systems-wants-your-smartphone-to-think-for-you/
I thought google was working on this and it was named project "Majel", which is a reference to Majel Barrett of Star Trek fame for anybody in the know
Interesting!

Mind blowing, every time when I see something like this happening with technology I wonder that most of the things we saw in Si-Fi movies are about to come real. it's started, messing up with AI has started at right time and we are very fortunate to see something incredible in upcoming years.

Yeah, like Skynet and T1000 Military robots/drones. It will be awesome to be oppressed by our governments with AI! I cannot wait!

In short (okay, maybe not short) we built the technology to focus on
Allowing any connected device to understand the world the same way you do. That means "human-like intelligence' (and I believe we're the first one to have cracked that nut) and the ability for your devices to mimic your personality.
Complete data privacy. I hate the idea that 3rd party companies own and control your data and literally turning you into a product they can sell to advertisers. So we've implemented a "personal cloud" solution. The idea is that instead of all your Android devices connected to Google server farm, or Facebook server farm when starting your FB app, or Apple server farm for iOS etc....I want us to get to a point where all your devices connect to your personal cloud and that you can host your cloud anywhere you want so that you have full control over it. This means no one, including my startup, will ever get into a position to controlling the intelligence or data on the global network. Or in other words, no NSA and no Skynet.
This is the most important part: Devices need to understand "WHY?". Why are you doing this or that? etc. Anyone who can answer the question why exhibits real human intelligence. That is the main point of this AI.
From a practical standpoint, the AI really interconnects these personal clouds in specific ways so that they can "produce" intelligence. The result is an "intelligence briefing" that is sent to the device allowing the device to understand what is going on and why and provide information where the device can find apps, services, content so that device can automatically connect to the app. (no app stores or social networks or commerce platforms, just direct from user to service/product/app provider).
Kind went into the technical details here, but hopefully it answered your question
And thank you for posting the link

We designed it specifically to prevent government and hackers to invade your privacy. No Skynet!

I guess the real money in the future is to develop "psychiatric therapy centers" for electronic devices AI. if is going to be "human-like intelligence''... LOL now you're one step ahead of the curve.

In that case you also need jail cells for devices who decide to break the law

LOL! If it is being designed by a man you better believe that! The ultimate punishment will be having the device deactivated and being forced to run the Palm OS for the rest of its life.

Yeah both of those OSs will make a phone feel retarded. It will be the equivalent of having a stroke for a cell phone.

Forgot Apple iOS lol, if it was forced to run iOS it might start uninstalling itself and cause your device to brick to prevent it from having to deal w/ the OS........software seppuku lol

Having to run the IOS will be for misdemeanors and the Palm OS would be for life sentences. The blackberry OS is for everything in between.

I had used the palm treo for a while. It was cool for one of the first "operating system based phones", but maybe going back, since after not using it for so long, I would probably have to concur lol. I need to pick one up and play with it again.

The Palm OS was my favorite back in the days but times change and we have to adapt and keep with the times. Palm OS was good for it's time. The funny thing is Android approached Palm first to throw their OS in their phone but Palm told android to F-off. That decision F-ed Palm and now they are no longer making smartphones.

I want to port Windows Phone 8.1 to Droid DNA.
Just for now i wait for Board support package (BSP) from Qualcomm.
Windows Phone is free* for now.
I need a people who can help me in this project.
Seems like a giant undertaking for an aging device.
for all info, such as bsp and other write Private Message.
IMEI, Serial
what partition contents IMEI on Droid DNA?
I want to backup that partition via terminal.

Aging device? Its still in my opinion one of the top phones out, and should damn well be powerful enough to run a Windows Os . Just because a carrier stops supporting a phone doesn't mean its aged poorly. The DNA runs lollipop like a damn boss , so Wp.8.1 should be just as slick if its done . :beer:

I didn't mean it in a way to discredit its capabilities. I think it would run Windows Phone perfect. I think it could run any mobile OS that's out right now perfectly. I just don't a device that's two years old gaining the attention of developers. It's just such a complicated task to accomplish. Most would like to see it done on something new and shiny.
