Hope this doesn't piss off any android fans.
Anyone know of a way to install a cooked WM ROM on the EVO? I'm new to this stuff so directions would greatly be appreciated. Thanks
I feel the flames a comin'
Really though dude. Sell the EVO, go to t-mobile and buy an HD2. It's pretty much the same device but with WM.
Seriously why buy an android device if only to put windows mobile?
Anyway no you can't, windows is copyrighted or something of the sort and there for needs to be license etc.
Android is open and free hence why it can be placed on damn near everything.
There had been other threads like this btw.

Unless you want to spend months developing drivers then no, it isn't possible. As someone said, go with the HD2.

That's so weird. I've heard of the WinPho stuff ... but WinMo? That's two more steps back than WP7. Say it ain't so, Joe.

Some will argue that wp7 is two steps back from WinMo.

That was the initial release. Mango is like a mile a head WinMo.
I'm inclined to agree with both of you. Which confuses me.

Id love to see windows 7 on my shift. I'm pretty excited to try wp7
Sent from my PG06100 using XDA App
Ahh, I second this. Except the fact that most programmers are staying over at the Evo and I wish more programmers would come over here. Not many people of a Shift, I got one yesterday and Perm Rooted.
Not going to happen..EVER..
I mean your question should be..
"who wants to get sued by M$?"
because thats exactly what would happen to any developer who ports this to an Android phone...they let the HD2 slide because when you buy winmo phones they still make money..so they are being "tolerant"..if you port it over to an Android phone..M$ earns nothing and this helps their competition...M$ will be with a lawyer in your doorstep in no time...
On another note..MeeGo is open source..so you can get that ported...
If you just want the launcher download Metro UI on the market.

wp7 will never happen on the evo. the devs just do not seem interested in doing it. i too wouldn't mind playing with it but i doubt it will come to light.
more soo id still love too see webos ported to the evo, even xda has a section for it now.

For sure, webos is pretty fun to play with, I owned a pre for a little then traded it for my cdma heroc.
Edit: Aren't the evo and hd2 pretty much identical? (Hardware wise)

yeah i think the hd2, hd7 and the evo are pretty similar.
Legally... porting w7 to the hd2 is just as wrong as porting it to the evo....
all those people that say i has a license, so what? its like saying i have a license to run windows vista... so i can install a hacked version of windows 7 legally.
If they are allowed to post those roms here, we can too. The only thing is finding devs to do it.

I really wish a port would come to fruition. However, no dev even seems remotely interested.
Also, windows phone 7 has been out for quite a while now on GSM carriers, but there has been no port to a GSM android device. I fear there might be more issues than just developer interest.

I just read that the HTC arrive doesn't even have wimax support. I'm sure it would have been alot easier if it did. I'm guessing it would be a full time job for someone to take along the port i.e getting wimax to work and etc. So right now I don't believe there's even a cdma wp7 phone with wimax yet. Bummer

im sure we could get this too work. if they can port it to the hd2 then we can have it also. we just need a dev here to give it a go. im thinking virus could get interested.

Why do you feel the need to post this here? Don't mean to come off as an a-hole, but no one cares if you've changed to the iphone, so you gave up a locked down phone for an even more locked down phone that isn't nearly as customizable or fun to use, over some rumors. Im kinda glad you've changed phones now that I think of it.

So I assume this has something to do with P3Droids comments on Verizon "tracking" rooted phones right? (dude deleted the original post)
If your going to read into things like these, you have to keep up with them. If this guy would have, he would have known that Verizon currently can't actually see that your phone is rooted.
They HAVE implemented a way to see if your tethering in the new GB release. I think this is 100% acceptable for them to do. Period.
As for getting an iPhone. I'm not going to sit here and bash the phone. I may not like it as much as I do an Android phone, but everyone must admit the iPhone has some pros, like battery life. Everyone I know who has one has amazing battery life. This goes for Apple computers as well. Apple has it right with batteries.
Anywho, just thought I'd put my two cents in.
I guess the OP wants a phone that can't multitask and doesn't even have wallpaper. Good for him.

Err...You can change the wallpaper on an iPhone. Especially with iOs 4.0, which is what any iPhone out there is probably on nowadays.

This thread has now been closed.
There is a port that has been put alot of time into and needs the handy work of some talented devs that can get this going and finished in the right direction. The Droid X port. ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1134997 )
Camera is literally a second away from getting to work and other then that that WiFi is the only thing not working to my knowledge. me and a bunch of other members have been trying to keep the thread alive and checking in everyday to see how the progress was and at first it wasn't doing anything and no one was even bothering cause of it being motoblur and doubted it could ever work/
But then team Xron came in and literally brought this port from nothing to pretty damn usable. They fixed the screen tearing, the hw acceleration and the sound. All that is working right now and only thing that needs a touch up from a dev is the Wifi. Fix that and this can be one badass mother effin Port. Can't wait for this to get finished up and everyone can enjoy it because its really that good.
All i know is that Chubbz is still working on it but Swamp Goblin has given up and thinks this is as far as the rom will go, but i don't believe that. no pun intended but he got the evo 3d now and is off to bigger and better things lol
So im asking if anyone out their, dont even have to be a Myn or Virus but someone that can put some little more progress in this and it will be finished and ready to boot up for everyone to enjoy.
Thanks for hearing me out and hopefully word gets out to the right ears and they would want to lend a hand. i know it can be done.
May the force be with you all
Quick question.....I'm a long time Android user and rooter and I remember back ineligible the G1 and MyTouch 3G days there was a motoblur port and pretty much everything was running including cams and wifi.....do you think you guys can look into those roms and see what those devs did to get it working?? I mean it may be worth a shot......

for sure i will look into it, whatever it takes to get the rom back in business.
Do you remember the names of the ports or even links would be nice.

Ill do a little research and post in a sec.....
Is this port further along than the WP7 port?
didn't even know there was a WP7 port, never seen it in the 4g development forum. so i would have to say yes.
Like i said, all this needs is a cam fix and wifi and its ready to go

Light years ahead of the WP7 port....not bashing either I would love to see wp7 work out on the Evo especially since its going to be retired from sprints lineup soon.....but of course porting an android rom with a skin on top of it to a device already running android is easier than porting a whole different OS.....
The wp7 is vaporware its like the webos port....light years away LOL. You'd probably see an iOS port before wp7. I still have my evo id love to check out this droid x port.

Cmon dude sell your EVO bro, come to the darkside, there's ways. I know 3 people personally that called to have their upgrade reset then traded in evo to target for 150 and paid 50 bucks for 3D. If they did it in my city I would have gone that route. 50 bucks only! I love my og EVO too much to get rid of her though...
