Windows Mobile on EVO 4G

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.

[Q] Dualboot: Windows Mobile & Android On Xperia X8

Sorry my ignorance, but is that possible to install both of the OS on a Xperia x8?
If it so, I would like to know how..
Thanks
(Sorry if my english isn't right, I'm portuguese.. xP)

At the moment impossible (I guess bootloader has to be cracked for that)
and the requirements for WP7 are higher. (For example at least 5MP camera...)

And how about WM 6.5? at least that.. xD

Why buy an Android phone if you want Windows mobile?

This thread is useless, Android >> WinMo 6.5

I love my xperia, thats why I don't what to buy other cell phone..
Anyway, it was just a question, don't blame me if I want to know something more about my phone.. xD

No, it is impossible to do on an android-based phone. You could try running ubuntu though, I'm sure there's a thread for that somewhere, not for the x8 specifically but you can attempt to do it on your phone, won't brick it or anything..

Pointless how? It'd be fun to try getting it working.

Froyo would be more fun
Only advantage from installing windows for me would be Automapa. Its a very good polish gps navigation software. Other than that I don't like windows mobile.

Windows 8 on galaxy s

Hi there ..... I know that this is the most stupid post you ever seen, but after seeing a galaxy note running windows 8 on it on youtube, I am asking if there is any possibility to have it on our device even in the far future

How can one become a senior member and then post a Q/A in dev section?

There is no Windows running on that galaxy note. Just the screen from a distant PC is sent to the Galaxy: splashscreen
You can remote control your PC running WIndows 8 through this Galaxy App....

Ont: Little bit wrong huh?

If it's the same video I just watched then he's not really running Windows 8. He's using Splashtop Streamer to stream his pc running Windows 8 to his phone.

if u meant this http://youtu.be/ODo2In7nEng then its Splashtop Remote, a VNC/RDP client that allows users to access and control their computer remotely through a mobile device running iOS or Android... win 8 isn't actually installed in note.for more info go here https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.splashtop.remote... have a nice day...

easy bro. install remote desktop client. tadaaa !!!
enjoy windows 8 on the 4" screen. make sure u bring magnifying glass.

OR you could just have said it's impossible because of the closed source nature of WP and let it be politely locked or left

Might be Windows 8 will support it.
Sammy prepared phone win Win 8.
If exist driver for Exinos platform in Win8 - it is POSSIBLE to write loader to load windows, why not?
See HTC HD2 as example - it can run as Android so Windows Phone as well

You sad it about Omnia, i am speaking about HTC HD2 - can not see connection
I am saying, HTC HD2 was build as Windows Mobile.
One great person (from Russia BTW) - hack boot loader, made OWN loader - MagLDR - that can load Android or Windows Phone 7.
So it is POSSIBLE to somehow run WP on phones, not designed for it.
Though writing such a complicate code, and in such a dangerous place as bootloader (may kill phone forever) very, VERY hard task

Well ATIV line of product is pretty much the WP8 cousin of Galaxy line. If you look closely, Galaxy ATIV is S3 hardware with WP8 installed and some minor changes.

Why? Just look at the upcoming windows phone 8 devices.

Everything is possible with proper sources (bootloader and drivers). Without them not possible.

Why would you want to offend your SGS3 by putting Windows Phone on it? Why not try putting iOS there while you're at it?!

That's just silly.
But for those saying that WP8 can be run on the SGS3, I'm afraid you're mistaken. The i9300 uses a Samsung Exynos Quadcore while the ATIV S will use a Qualcomm Snapdragon Dual-Care. There will most likely never be a Windows Phone 8 device with the same SoC found in the international SGS3.
The US versions could have more luck as they indeed do have the same CPU as the ATIV S and thus that a much better chance of getting drivers that work for them also.

As said before not gonna happen....ativ s doesnt run on exynos 4 quad, but on dual core qualcomm...so more likely that it gets ported to us sgs3

Is that possible? Are there any projects onlinr that i dont know? Thanks!

Dear oh Dear, no offence but get an iPad if you want iOS, if you want a 7 inch get the mini.
Why would you buy android and want iOS, there is a GOLauncher theme but whats the point?! Its a different OS for a reason !
Sorry to sound rude and blunt !
PS - I doubt this will happen properly, as Apple would definately sue like they always do, I'm surprised a launcher has lasted so long.

It's impossible, iOS isn't an open source OS as android

your best bet is to install Miui on it, and thow on a iOS theme.
then throw on a crappy keyboard
get rid of your appwidgetpicker.apk in system/app folder (because you wont be needing any widgets)
tether yourself to iTunes for music and videos
use a crappy maps app
and there you have it......iOS

Well well well... perhaps you misunderstanded me. I'm just asking for personal knowledge... nothing else!

Completely different hardware.. even if people were to port it to our device, it would never work as we would experience it on an iPad/iPhone. Apps wouldn't work, no hardware acceleration, no Bluetooth/gps etc.
