Is there any way to dump an original iphone for tryng a porting to pocketpc hardware?
so no skin or graphical plugin to emulate the iphone on WM5/6 but the real iphone OS patched and installed on a ppc
Is not a news, you can install OSx on a intel/amd PC, maybe is possible to do the same on a pocketpc?
Iphone and ppc have really very different hardware?
could be great a dualboot phone with WM/iphone OS !
No not currently or likely in the future.
There are several attempts to port Linux to our platforms which are all at varying stages of success. As far as I know there isnt a practical linux solution ready yet.
Stick to themes and 3rd party clone apps at present.
Microsoft must be planning a response to the success of the Iphone but when that will see the light of day is anyones guess. It certainly isnt WinMobile 6.1 !!!

As far as I know this wouldn't make sense because for a lot of gestures you need a different hardware. Its not the same system like touchflo etc.

there is a working linux for ppc, for hp iPAQ only for now.
check this, if one can bring it for htc
http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/
I am no linux expert but it seems that could possibly run on most HTC devices with some kernal patching??
I think the new OS looks better than Windows Mobile and is certainly better than touchflo 3d.
I am calling on the information of all the cooks,developers and hackers on this forum to answer this, do you think it would be possible to create a ROM that boots out HTC devices into this new Android OS and therefor rid us of microsofts limited WM6/6.1 OS ??
I am all for trying if you are!
Me too. I had expected to see more questions about android. I'm setting up a linux box to see what we can do with the source! Hope to see some progress here!
I think you should follow this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=396782&page=124
The people out there are working on a working Android on the Kaiser. When finished, the Android system can easily ported to some other HTC devices (I think).
I think that Google Android is working better than Windows Mobile with TouchFlo (2d & 3d), so I hope that they finish the job soon
Why not !
I'm own Win CE 6 SDK and VS 2005. I start developing custom OS builds. It's going fine, I can build custom image, here is example.
It is compiled for ARM so architecture is compatibile with WM Devices. It generate ROM image which can be moded with existing tools. At this stage I want to develop good, stable image, and then start stage 2 - Combining WM drivers from WM device (They are back compatible) with Win CE 6 image.
We will see if this will end it any way, I will informe you about progress...
The first and two last screenshots show IV distribution which is "universal" and total commander runing fine
The second screenshots are from first, profiled version, but they show fine some win ce features...
At this moment I must update distribution to r2
If you saw, or not... Win Ce is runing fine on Nokia N800, the video was also posted here: http://www.engadget.com/2009/02/27/vmware-mvp-weds-windows-ce-and-android-in-unholy-matrimony-on-du/
Edit: If anyone is interested what components and features can be included in build, I created screenshots which show them:
http://rapidshare.com/files/204557405/features.rar.html
Edit 2: Currently updating to R2 for maximum quality of release.
looks good, i think, whats the implications of this exactly?
wm6/6.5 is built on winCE 5, right?
WM 6, 6.1, 6.5 = CE 5
WM 7 = CE 6
Generaly CE 6 is faster. mor stable than 5, there is also more drivers, I test pocket total commander and it works fine, win ce 6 also use cab installers but they arent the same as for wm, they need litle modyfications to run on ce
sounds good
man, i wish you all the best.
(topic notification ON, pernamently!)
looking forward to this!
Good Luck!!! will keep an eye on this thread..
This is really good for those GPS programs that only CE car units can do. This would be amazing step towards running full gps sw with all options on a ppc windows mobile way to go..
I wish you a luck... fingers crossed.
I own only PB5.0...
Good Luck Dude..Hope u comeup wid a Revolution..
Will you produce a kitchen for all devices presented here, or (and) others as well?.. And how do you think, could the drivers porting process be a hell?
wow definitely subscribing to this thread!
but are you using a derivative of the meizu firmware based on wince 6? Wouldn't that be easier than making something from scratch? Is it possible to port that to our devices? This is an excellent morning treat =)
As I say before, porting drivers is not requried, becouse drivers work on kernel level so there is no somethink like WM drivers, there are onlu Win CE drivers, But drivers from Win CE 5.2 (on which are based all WM devices) are compatibile with CE 6. I'm curently working on stable distribution for Win CE 6, then i will merge WM emulator image with CE image and will see if it will work, if yes I will go to hardware test - my candidate is my ipaq 214 becouse it is perfect for Win CE due to strong hardware, and there is not many drivers to repleace becous this ipaq doesnt have camera, gsm, gps... If this all will go fine I will publish distribution and instructions how to do this...
not bad
so it will still take some time before it is seen on a touch pro which isn't bad
in fact I have no knowledge of this truthfully ><
I am very happy you are doing this
but as far cosmetic design how does this differ from wince 5.2?

in case of Kernel it is like XP to Vista kernel, in case of UI there is not big difference from 5.2 to 6
but then with this would it be possible to integrate at least cosmetic theme like uhm this one

minus the multi touch feature

Is a completely different APIs in there? I'm talking about porting OEM apps...

No the API's are most the same, there are eaven the same DirectX and DirectShow, as default Net cf 2.0 can be included
I was actually thinking about something like this about a month or two ago.... i watched the vs studio videos on it and it just started looking like it was a little above my level for the amount of time i had Good luck on the project!
To those of you worried about cosmetics...
Right now we have the control to customize about 50 to 60 percent of the ui. With a custom build of wince, everything is 100% customizable (because we have access to the source code.)
I like customizability but I have no clue on where to begin ><
that would be the sucky part...but if it is touted to be better and faster than win ce 5.0 it would be something I am willing to try
Maybe it will soon be possible to run android and windows nt nativly at the same time on the Transformer !
how? - ReactOS:
http://www.reactos.org/ (if you are going to test it in a virtual machine dont' use the 0.3.14 version of os, use the trunk build version its much much much better)
ReactOS is an open source windows clone and most of the windows applications work on it ! (MS office, opera, ff, ...) the good news is there is an ARM port of ReactOS - Windows RT equivalent:
http://www.reactos.org/wiki/ARM_Port
ReactOS still has problems to work on real hardware because of many different components but on some PC it works very well (it can be targeted to work on a platform and fix the bugs)
The ARM port is able to run on the transformer but there is still a lot of work to do.
Windows will soon release a Office ARM version for winRT and in order to run any windows application on the transformer a recompile is needed.
and about android there is already a port of android that runs native on windowsne emulation no virtual machine !!)
http://mobile.slashdot.org/story/13...utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed
If anyone has any coding skills it would be nice to try to port reactos to the transformer or just to donate to the project with the subject "arm port for transformer"
cool, thanks for sharing Cruonit
im just curious about that, i dont really any info.
its kinda possible install win 10 on switch and other Tegra X1 devices.
Hacker Installs Windows 10 on Nintendo's Switch Console
Nintendo Switch now supports Windows?
www.overclock3d.net
There is a thing called Windows phone, while it unpopular for now, who knows maybe it's time to shine is soon with this Windows 11 update. And Samsung idea of implementing AMD GPU into it's devices for the very first phone that supports ray tracing, it's very likely to be a catalyst to that as well.
The leaked version of Windows 11 is still in development, and it's still gonna have much more features, it also has a built-in android emulator that Microsoft works on.
Anything is possible on Linux if you have the knowledge, you probably shouldn't do that tho as it may prove to be security fatal to your data and also from the video you can see it's a bit sluggish which is yukky in my standards. Also for obvious reasons most android apps won't work on it.
