would be nice eh? ive been wondering this myself. probably wont happen but who knows!
maybe w7 ?? but I would much rather keep my current os
People have wanted it for a while, and there's many postings about it on Netflix's actual website, but it all comes down to them saying that Android is too open and doesn't support the DRM needed for them to be allowed (by the movie studios/mpaa) to release a port. Supposedly, they're looking for an Android version early this year.
For example:

Hey friends,
probably this has been asked before, but still a major consideration of which phone to buy.
anyone knows for certain if this will be available \ can be done?
thanks a lot,
P.S you guys seem most skillful dev team, keep up guys.
it is possible but no one can assure you that this will happen. look at the orginal HD port as an example

you will never find the right answer, and we all already can see it is pretty tough to put an non android phone with a fully working android? So far, it is pretty impossible. Why would you putting high hope with a wm phone to be ported with android? this will not be a good factor at all for choosing a phone? my 2 cents.
If I read the signs right, there will bei a Android Version of the Leo in early 2010.
Maybe there is a change to flash between the two OS.
On the other Hand this would mean HTC didnt give an capactive Display to the Leo for being ready for Windows Mobile 7 but for being able to sell it as Android Device aswell.

If you want to google for this version you should use the magic words "HTC Dragon"
Cool .. I'm reading this forum for two weeks to get reason NOT to buy Leo. Still haven't found one. But this might be it ..

Hello everyone!
I had a question to ask ...
Some time ago I saw the dualboot windows-android htc available for some.
is also available on HD2?
thanks
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623792
i think you can install the dual.root but there is no version of android itself to run on htc hd 2, as i assume.

if they mange to port it yes, ideally it would have a dual boot where you can chose what you want too boot when you turn on the phone.. that would be really nice
what about this? i found this on a website wich i cannot post here because i'm new.

Yes, what he said. You can READ about the progress they have made, but please no posts like:
'Can't you just use the Android from Nexus One?'... The Developers are smart people. So to be honest, there is probably NOTHING you can teach them. Just let them to their job. It is harder then you guys think, so this could take a while.
Enjoy your HD2 as it is. The main reason I want Android is for the appstore. But probably tomorrow the Marketplace will get an update, that allows you to switch regions, install on SD card, and makes it easier for Developers to make apps. Let's hope the Marketplace start getting better within the next months!
there is no android version for htc hd2 i have tried other versions installing on my device but it did not work..... i think people are working on it hopefully sooner or later we will get it.....
Maybe never !!!
thank you guys and sorry.
This is a bit of an odd question, but please bare with me here.
I'm writing my thesis for the uni about C#... with the recent release of VS2010, I thought it'd be great to focus on this IDE and the new features it offers and put those in the thesis as well. I ALSO had an idea to show that one can write apps for mobile devices using C# (duh, but all's fair in the academic world ); I own a HD2, so being able to whip out the phone and show the app working would be a great way to blow some academic minds (well, not really, but I think it'd be nice).
However... VS2010 doesn't support WMo 6.X, which is a serious bummer. There are some rumours that an SDK will be released, but if and when that will happen remains a mystery.
So this leaves me WMo7, which has already been ported to HD2. However, it seems it's not public just yet. And besides not being public, WMo7 will supposedly only allow apps to be installed through MS store... so I have no idea if it'll be possible for me to write an app for that OS and actually use it (it won't be commercial in any way and 100% useless for 99% of people, as it only serves as a live example for my thesis).
To summarize:
- Is is possible for a "basement-programmer" like myself to use WMo7 to show off my own apps without the use of the MS store?
- If so, where could I get my hands on WMo7 for HD2?
- If WMo7 is not available to us mortals, could someone tell me roughly when a public release will be available?
- Or perhaps the whole idea is pointless and I should just develop my app in VS2080 and show it off with the HD2 that I currently own? (It's will be a simple app that connects to some database online without being limited to MSSQL and does something with it, where "something" is yet unspecified)

assume currently it wont be available for the HD2, if it is then it wont be available until a few months after the release of wp7

AKAIK it hasnt, there is a rom available but it doesnt run on any current device since its a beta rom for an unreleased device.
there is a chance they may get it working on the HD2 or some other phone but its not available currently.

So... the whole thing about W7 having been ported to HD2 was just a rumour?
I am not sure where you heard that winmo had been ported too hd2? is a link available.
I have just checked Da_G's twitter account and he is still working on the port, he has developed several new tools too help him but is struggling to get some stuff to do with the JTAG controller.
there is a hd2 application which attempts to reimplement some of the functions you can see in the wp7 promo videos but this is not a port it is just an application that looks like wp7.

write your app under 2008 and for 6.5, there hasn't been any word from the source of that rumour for months. C# code is very portable between 2008 and 2010, so don't worry about that. With a little work (can be on the order of hours) you can upgrade your code to 2010 and 7.0 if it ever arrives for HD2.
uuum.. u can show windows phone 7 with a emulator on a pc.. and i think ms released the windows phone 7 tools to programm apps for it alerady..
http://developer.windowsphone.com/Default.aspx
dont know if its possible to just run the app without the market.. i hope it is, but really dont know >.<
and its impossible to port wp7 to the HD2 right now. yes, it already happened, but that version is very laggy and buggy, so its useless when u want to show it
What do you guys think? It mentions that windows live services wont work.

Very cool, I had thought I was about to tell you to hush and we already knew about it...but this is genuine news! AWESOME! I for one would LOVE to be able to run WP7, would make me extremely happy.

From what I heard (read) from different sites, the WGA will keep a lot of things from working like it's supposed to.
I guess this is a question for the mods:
Based on the policies of the site, if they do port over WP7 to the HD2, would it be considered a warez because of the WGA?

I really hope things don't get ugly over something like this...
No, WP7 technically isn't a ware as the source is available, the whole WGA thing is so that unauthorized devices, IE cheap China clones and the like can't utilize Windows Live services. I am more than sure that there will be a way around the PVK/WGA system, and at least in some way Live Services will be able to function.
That's awesome!
Hey guys,
I was wondering if there is any sort of way to have apps open in windows instead of opening on the entire screen. I for some reason remember seeing something like this a while back but I don't know if I'm just having created memories or if I actually saw it.
Thanks for any help
Yea there is some company that tried to market it to OEMs for gingerbread a while back I believe. I haven't seen much recently on this accept that the ipad has a hack for jail-broken devices that allows this feature, so considering the floating apps android already supports and androids superior multitasking it should be possible if some really awesome devs work it into a ROM of find an incredible mod for stock ROMSs. This has always interested me so hopefully we can find how possible it is and maybe someone could get it done.
Edit;
Found the article on this, not as old as I thought, but it is still on an older version of Android.

Thanks for your reply. I was hoping it was already implemented somewhere. Maybe we will see it in the future of this device

Yea, I have the overscreen browser and aircalc calculator, I had to sideload the browser from my transformer though as the nexus is unsupported. But I would still like to see a mod or ROM that allows this for all apps, much like this mod for the ipad.
