Is it possible to build a 5.0 ROM for Magician using Platform Builder 5.0?

My institute has a genuine copy of Platform Builder for Windows CE 5.0 given by Microsoft. Is it possible to develop a 5.0 ROM for Magician using that?

No.
You need a BSP (Board Support Package) from the OEM that contains all the drivers and settings for a specific device.
Plus, there is a different Platform Builder for Windows CE and Windows Mobile.

Thank you very much. But I'd like to ask how do they realize Linux on Magician.

via reverse engeneering.
You can do the same - reverse engeneer the ROM, recreate BSP for magician and compile Windows CE 5.0, or even Windows CE 6.0 for your device. It would take 1-2 years for this to do.
You would be unable to compile Windows Mobile 5.0 because you don't have WinMobile adaptation kit. MS provides it to OEMs only.
And you should know the difference between CE and WM.

[Q] Windows Embedded

Hi,
This may seem a dumb question to you, but is it possible to somehow install Windows Embedded CE 6.0 on a T-Mobile MDA Vario II. I think my Hermes already has CE 5.2 on it. Please excuse the dumbness of this question, as I am only 11 and it is probably true that I do not know as much as you. Anyway, just so you know, I got the Embedded image from Microsoft Dreamspark.
Thanks,

[Q] Windows Ce instead of Android, Touchscreen don't work.

Hi
I am not sure were to put this.
Its about a android tablet ( not anymore )
I found on a other forum how to instal Windows Ce 6.0 on my Polaroid mpc700G 7" tablet.
It works like a charm and seems stable.
But no touchscreen.
Wel it is not that strange because this edition of Ce comes from a netbook,
and they don't need a touch.
Q, has someone by accident some drivers for that, or a other solution fore this problem?
Or has someone a complete firmware/rom of this.
Also need a driver for a 3070 Chipset for the wifi.

[Q] Can we install Windows CE?

Can we install Windows CE on our A500? Windows CE is compatible with ARM based processor architectures. So I think thats may be a way to install it on our tablet. Can someone help to make this happen?

Re-installing Windows CE 6.0 based device

Hi,
I'm currently in possession of a Windows CE 6.0 based device used for navigation. It's currently non-functional, it will start but it won't boot up Windows nor the navigation software. Is there any 'general' approach of installing a Windows CE 6.0 (based) ROM on such a device? Went through Search but couldn't find anything that matched my needs.
Pictures of the device attached.
Thanks in advance,

I got the same issue, but with a Medion GPS with Windows CE 5 , & don't know how to install Windows CE 6 on it.
It's now like a hard bricked pone, because I can't boot it up now after so much tries and tries with some bad tutorials on the internet.
(That happened to me to don't search it before on XDA and believe in a Youtuber guidance... ¬¬) PLEASE, NEVER DO THIS. IF SOMEONE IS READING HERE, IS BETTER TO WAIT A GOOD ANSWER IN THAT FORUM THAT TRY ANY TUTO OUTSIDE HERE OR ANOTHER PROFESSIONALS FORUMS LIKE THIS.
