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

But is it going to be ported for XPERIA too? I don't know I am completely disappointed by SE's software/firmware department. As soon as they sell the device to you then they "don't know you anymore".
im OK with the SE service. its a WinMo device. so basicly thats like a Windows PC. install, deliver and see what the user make out of it.
it can be (soft)modded to death and leaves u pretty much possibilities. but basicly, if u dont want to "hack" ur phone, the device is utter crap
for the 6.5 update, shouldnt be much of a problem. either SE releases it, or we just rip it off from other devices like we allready do. Most of our new ROMs are from the Blackstone allready.
codenamed SkyBox, SkyLine and SkyMarket.

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.

I concur. I couldn't imagine going to winmo after being blessed with android.

I guess we want what we don't have? Many folk are working on porting Android to our WM devices.... Maybe it's just the challenge of it all?

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.
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 repeat: if you use Android you will never go back to WM.
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!!!!

Ok, why can not download?
web explorer working fine.
google map working fine.
why can not download?
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.....

...or get the iPhoneToday plugin.

The reason I was considering it is just that I like the look and feel of the iPhone, and its OS isn't messy like Windows MoFoBile.
I'd get an iPhone...but I'm locked down for two years with this HTC HD2
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...

For people dying to get an iPhone, here is my usual advice!
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.

I have a really bad taste in my mouth over Windows Mobile devices. I owned a HTC Touch Diamond and a HTC dual Touch. Hardware was FANTASTIC, software SUCKED.
It might be not letting go of the past but i'm personally steering away from Windows mobile. In fact i had an Android port on my Dual Touch . That was the only way i could use it, with out wanting to kill someone when i was done with it.
He's not hating man. Mango its just a completely ugly. You want some kind of like mango for your android, download the w7 launcher off the market.
I wouldn't want it either.

I actually like the metro look. When Windows 8 comes out I want to try and find a way to get it to work on my Asus transformer. I would relish the idea of having devices that all run windows OS's again, esp since I'm a windows dev I could write apps myself if they don't exist. I'm too lazy to learn android atm.
