the hardware is pretty similar with HD2, I wonder if we can flash HD2 ROM on this device. I like the hardware of Nexus One but missing the WM6.5. I will try to flash it when it is received tomorrow.
i have a better question... why would you want to?
Seriously, just buy an HD2 if you have such a WinMo boner
Are you kidding us? WM doesn't exist...
If you try Android you will never go back to WM..
yeah... gonna dump my fuze.. maybe sell it for $100 and get outta ATT..
buy the phone outright, and jump on the $59 plan they got (or maybe make up a different one - i'm not much of a texter), then add on the work discount.. cheaper than paying $180 for it and being stuck w/ the $80/mo plan.
I'm done with winmo after playing with my parents android phones
HD2 cost $670 +shipping, but if I flash the Nexus one, it only costs $562. it's a better choice than buy a HD2.

I like some games that can be played under WM, and other Apps that does not exist for Android.
Yeah! Bubble breaker FTW!!!!
I wonder if there was stable android ported for my SE X1 Xperia and you want WM on this g0dlike device

I couldn't even pick up the phone with WM.. It would just freeze..
is this a joke?
The 4 real mobile OS this generation are OS X Mobile, Android, Blackberry, and to some extent, Symbian... Winmo is not even an OS anymore it's pieces of junk getting stitched together like Frankenstein
Yay for developing honeycomb style apps screen for the past 2 years

Well there is a device called Sunno, supposed to have both WM&android - dual boot, similar to your desktop's dual boot. So it's possible then?I think it would be beneficial for these devices to have changeable os. Monday - android, tuesday - winmo. About stupidity - I don't like android (hero that is) - so I'm stupid then??
Biased people.. Android fans start to sound like iPhone groupies. All think Android is a new killer OS, ever owned a GOOD WM device? "whats new? what is all the fuss about?" What can you do now that is sooooo different from what I could do 3/5 years ago with Winmo? The only good thing in the nexus? The snapdragon used in WM HD2..
this android is just stupid program. Got it today.
can not download applications from Android market. it just say "starting download", but never start.
I try to download from windows XP, and copy to SD card, but
it even does not have file explore. it's no way to find and run the installation.
what a trash program!!!!

Exist any WM6.1 ROM for HTC Dream ? Please dont ask me why I need this.
Thanks.
No, not going to happen, been asked many, many, many times already.
why not ? where is the problem to cook non official ROM ?
For one, its a waste of a perfectly good phone to put that CRAP on it. If you want a piece of crap, buy a piece of crap.
Second, the required drivers simply don't exist.
What do you men crap ? OK, the second explanation is better.
I think lbcoder got it right. windows mobile IS Junk. I have a Kaiser in addition to the G1. The Kaiser has great hardware minus the KB, small screen, and quiet speaker, but it has a horrific OS e.g. It's slow, locks up, restarts itself for no reason.
The G1 however has a great OS that needs little or no changing at all, but dumbed down hardware.

Bottom line is if you want WinMo, buy a WinMo phone. Most of the hackers working on HTC Dream are working on Android.
Oh yeah and use the search.

Now that I think about it; I sure wouldn't mind the ability to dual boot. Not even sure why but maybe just for that hell of it.
Makes no sense
I had the T-mobile Dash before the G1 and wound up giving the dash to my wife. I was helping her learn to use it and only then did I realise how goofy the setup of it all is. They say the beauty of it is that it tries to emulate the Windows experience, but if my desktop worked like that...I'ld have a mac.

Best post in this thread. Completely true and funny as hell.
That being said I'm STILL excited to see what WinMo 7 brings to the table.
anybody else think the touch vogue & qvga is going to be making a huge comeback? all i see are threads with people selling their touch pros and diamonds to go back to the vogue. i think it is one of htc's most valued ppc's. also with android running so well on it now i really think alot of users will be coming back.
thoughts?
People want the latest & greatest. I don't even want the Vogue but is what I am stuck with because of the stupid thinking over at Verizon. I don't have a data plan & you can only get the touch Pro if you are on a data plan.
No other handset is as mature in the Android space. It is an amazing OS running well enough for everyday use.
I'm keeping my Vogue until I can get an Android phone.

x2... I'm locked into my Alltel/Verizon? Contract til 2010 but luckily I picked up the last two in-stock Vogues they had for the wifey and me for only $80/ea. I initially regretted my decision but now that Android on the Vogue has matured so much that it can be used for everyday use I'm more than thrilled with the decision. Happy to be Rockin' the Vogue!!!

Same, even though the Vogue has worked out for me. I still would rather have a touch pro, or the touch pro 2 once it comes out.
I'd really like to have the Moto Schole thats coming out after using Android on the Vogue, its a nice OS.

WM is a terrible platform, it doesnt offer anything that android doesnt or at some point wont. Android even runs better on the vogue which was designed for WM. I just dont see why anyone would voluntarily choose WM overandroid. It would be great, if this was 2003.

You can absolutely customize Android. There are apps on the market and tons of downloadable themes. The apps cost a bit of money, and being that we're not really "stable" yet, I haven't bothered to buy them.
And need I point out mssmison's themed builds?

I believe that was fixed today, although I may be mistaken on exactly what that entails.
Anyway, I tried the free "Lite" version of a couple theming apps a while back, and they worked fine. I forget what the difference between Lite and Full were though.

Dude, what apps are you trying to run that require root? I've seen you post this several times while looking around the forums today. I've never had an app intalled that wouldn't run because I wasn't root.
Okay, so before I get flamed to death for asking - it's just a random question!
Is it possible [or has it been done?] to rip the ROM from the iPhone [or get its OS or whatever] and flash it to the HTC HD2 so that it behaves like the iPhone?
Yes, it's a stupid question, but I would like to know the answer - Just to play around with the idea a bit.
I will take the lead!
If you want the iPhone OS, take the easy route and get an iPhone!
If you want the Windows OS, you have got a few options (and you are probably in the right place)!
lol...
No seriously, iPhone's MAJOR drawback is the ability of users/developers to access the installed operating system. Until this is sorted, no one can dump the iPhone OS and hence it can not be run on any other hardware.
But, why would you want to do that ?
Seriously,
If you want the iPhone OS, take the easy route and get.....
lol
...or get the iPhoneToday plugin.

However - that's not TOO bad since I cooked it with that Energy ROM - the BEST ROM IN THE WORLD, by the way.

I realise that the iPhone and the iPhone OS has virtually no customisability, but I mean...if a ROM was made that resembled it - then customisability could be cooked in somehow...

Flog your HTC HD2 on ebay, and then head to an apple store to purchase an iPhone. Uncle Steve loves you indeed!

You could get a good amount for a telstra hd2... they generally go for more than any other hd2, especially if you're willing to ship to the us. If you hate WinMo, I suggest you doing this and get yourself an iphone. telstra doesn't care what phone you use.

Why would we want to cripple our device with being forced to sync with iTunes or accept only being able to bluetooth another iphone?
1. Apple would sue the hell out of XDAdevelopers.
2. If you want the iphone OS get an iphone
3. I doubt the iphone OS would even accept foreign phone drivers.
It wont happen. Drivers are one big issue in the way of it, also Apple is too closed, paranoid and litigious to let it ever happen.

No it's not the same thing.
Put WinMobile on an iphone is an attempt to make that device useful.
Installing the apple os in a HD2 is just the best way to have this smartphone locked, less interesting, ugly and useless
go to themes and apps, search for win 95.
thers the how to thread, in that theres a picture of apple os9 on a hd.
now happy
otherwise go to a scrapheap and get an iphone
Or just download one of the many iphone themes for wm6.5.
I think there was an article on the front psge about someone who imitated the entire UI
