Bravo good question.
Only your English seems
bad.
HTC HD Mini and HTC Legend
The device running Windows Mobile 6.5 Sense with 320 x 480 resolution HVGA is the "Touch HD Mini".
The best Windows Mobile system is present on "HD Mini" with graphic optimization and speed.
Also HTC Legend has a 320 x 480 resolution HVGA.
Both systems have a 600 MHz processor.
Sorry for my English.
The solution is simple. Don't buy a Legend if you want Windows Mobile. Buy a HD2, or anything else. I'm almost 100% sure that Windows Mobile won't be available for Legend (and there is no need to anyway). The main aspect for the Legend's success is Android and HTC Sense. I don't buy a Mac if I want to run Windows on it
Anyway it would be interesting trying Windows Phone 7 on Legend when it's available.
go wash your mouth wit soap.
How about a dual boot?

then buy a Windows Mobile 7 when it's on sale.
WM for me is a good but Legend has a nice aesthetics, I made only a demand since there are similarities between HTC HD Mini and HTC Legend.
However I have also an HD2.
winmo7 looks like a bad OS its so locked out compared to past versions seems like a backwards step

First we write,with not wit,ignorant,
then requested an opinion no one injured ...... peasant
so this is becoming a running gag now? new android device (not even rooted yet!) and someone asks to install winmo (which hasn't been done with ANY android device yet afaik)...
i would never even think of installing Windows Mobile in my Legend.... that would be blasphemy
I want to buy a new mobilefphone but i dont know which htc to buy..
i now had the htc polaris and its time for something new..
i'm thinking about the htc hd mini or the htc legend..
I saw some reviews about the andriod system.. but i don't know if i can sync my outlook with the device..

It's not so much an superiority/inferiority issue as to the 100's of dollars I've spent over the years for apps that will be useless with Android.

I have both HD2 and Legend. Legend is my daily phone and HD2 is my business phone. You have a point in telling Winmo offers more that's because Winmo has been on the stage for years and it's come to an end with WP7. There'll ben no upgrade or anything for oldschool winmo devices. Also winmo is quite heavy if you don't have a dragon inside your phone while android works very well with a 600mhz chip. As a matter of fact sometimes my Legend reacts faster than my HD2. And Android market is expanding faster than any other platform so there's no point in winmo anymore. Enjoy your nice designed eye-candy piece of technology as most of us do and forget about winmo the history )))

I noticed with you. In fact Android on speed and lightness of the system is perfect. Meanwhile I will use I HD2 and legend waiting for WM7.
I have confirmed that Windows Phone 7 is being released on several devices on November 8th. The tmobile version has two devices, the one that interests me is the HTC HD7 (and dell venue pro). Nice looking phone 4.3 inch screen, but major difference is it has three buttons (touch like the HD).
here is the link...
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsphone/en-us/buy/7/phones.aspx#filter=24&cmpid=14303000&wt.mc_id=insidernl
does anyone know how they plan to give the hd2 owners the OS? and what about the people who dont know anything about flashing?
WHo has reliable information on how they plan to do this.

Thank you for the bad/good news!!!
I actually just signed up to get a HD7 as soon as it's released. I keep seeing that there are too many driver/hardware compatibility issues to make wp7 work on the hd2...
A little f'd up because HTC hinted that anyone who bought the HD2 would be able to upgrade when wp7 came out...it's a good thing that we have great chef's otherwise the HD2 would be a waste

android on htc hd7 same as htc hd2??
now that this phone is coming out will it be the same process to run android on this new phone hd7, or is it more complicated then the htc hd2. are these the same phone basically spec wise except for touch buttons and a kickstand. lets strat the comparison, as i just ordered a hd2 to put android on it but not sure if the hd7 will run android better.
hd7 is not out yet how do we know if you can even run android on windows phone 7! we will all have to wait and see!
Hopefully our great devs here will be able to port wp7 over. Cotulla already got it to boot up on the hd2, which is a great sign. Considering the hd7 has the exact same hardware as our hd2, wp7 has the possibility to run great on our phones. We can only hope and support our devs. Time will tell.

You should get a native android phone if you just want to run android. Android on the hd2 will probably never run as well as native android phone... its always gonna be a hacked on version of android.

I'd be a little skeptical about trying the same process on the HD7, will an uploader work or will it brick the phone. we know what happened with the the hd2 hspl was neccessary. And, if the drivers are so different that the wm7 is incompatible with the hd2's hardware...i would assume just throwing the android we have now onto a diffent device is asking for trouble (althoug from everything I'm seeing, the hd7 is almost the same thing... i dont like the fact that the 16gb of memory is on board...will it have an sd slot?)
I'd wait until someone successfully does it
LANCELOT
When I looked at the spec it look like it the same processor as my HD2 except for the button. So it can be program to use Windows Mobile 7 without programming the other buttong? Just curious. Can someone check it out? Thanks.
Oh you dear, sweet, uninitiated. Allow me to clarify some points:
1-WILL THE HD2 GET AN UPGRADE TO WP7
A-Officially, no. This was announced some months ago that the HD2 will NOT be getting an upgrade to WP7 from MS or HTC.
2-DOES THAT MEAN THAT A CUSTOM WP7 ROM WILL HAPPEN?
A-Maybe. As it has been stated, Cotulla has booted WP7 successfully on HD2 hardware, but it is uncertain as to wether it will work in day to day use. His team is currently VERY secretive about what is/isn't working.
3-WHAT ABOUT ANDROID?
A-I have always said, if you wan't Android, buy and Android device. WP7 will almost certainly NOT work with current Android builds. Different hardware, different drivers etc. Oh and WP7 is not compatable with CE applications...which means HaRET...and pretty much any program written for WinMo.
I hope that clears some things up!
Was Just wondering if windows 7 can be flashed on HTC Elf......
Windows phone 7? No
Windows 7 (OS)? No.
The elfs processor is 1/5th of the reqired CPU usage for a start, and wasn't even meant to run winmo 6.5.

elfin has only a doubled rom/ram difference, cpu is the same. besides, not that a slight difference would work
what about eclair or froyo?
does someone have cab for that?
The answer is still no. There is only android1.6 donut for the elf/elfin. Wing Linux have done a great job getting it to the state that it is in at the moment. If you want a phone that is going to run android fully then just get an android phone. The elf is a very old device now when you consider the changes to mobile phones in the last year alone.
I'm sorry to be so blunt but I don't think it will happen. And even if it does it will be very slow and you'll probably end up with a negative impression of android or winphone 7 and not want to use it. You.can get early android phones for relatively cheap now. Look at the Hero, massive.community, but again, people are moving to faster devices already.

Saying that though, there is no.reason that you can't offer a helping hand to get eclair or group ported. Wing Linux will probably welcome the help.

hello guys
i just wanted to know if it will be possible to put windows phone7 as a second system on the dhd...i know i know windows phone 7 isnt a free sourcecode..but some people get it right on the hd 2..
so i was wondering if it wouldnt work for the dhd too?
at first: YES. it is possible.
BUT: it's a LOT of effort to port WP7 to the DHD and probably no one would do it.
so there would probably never be a working WP7 version on the DHD unless you get a really good DEV to work on this
I think there is a launcher called Windows phone 7. It looks exactly the same!
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
imo Windows 7 is not necessary on DHD.
Gingerbread is great.
im pretty sure WP7 wont come to the DHD as we first of all need the source code - which we most likely wont get.
+ imo the reason why we have working wp7 builds for the HD2 is, because it already has windows framework on it, which makes it way easier to port a newer version on it.
My question would be, will windows fans ever work out how to use search on XDA?, please this question has been asked time and time again.
Sry for the question bro actually im using revolution hd 5.11 and the windows phone 7 launcher the combination of windowd design and android software is great
I doubt it will. Even though WP 7 can be ported, almost all services in WP 7 will unuseable. The one that Im waiting is Meego or Ubuntu fully ported to DHD.
When I visit a big online store (which begins with an a ;P ) at this time all wp7 devices are really cheap xD. when you want wp7 I would recommend you to buy a htc hd7 for example. At the moment you will miss something like WOW effect of something new . Tested wp7 a while on my old hd2...there are many things missing (in OS itsself) and the hype came down after a short time after release of dft.
It would be good if can make it dual boot...

As we know Ubuntu Phone OS was anounced in CES 2013..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3YId_dwE99U
What do you guys think of it? Do you like it? Yes? No? And the most important question.. Could we have some hopes to see it on DHD? And would you like to use it on your DHD?
I would absolutely line to see this on the desire hd. Sadly thought desire hd doesn't really meet the requirements for it

Never say never..=)
I'd like to see Ubuntu become available for the DHD. I'd definitely enjoy playing around with it. If Ubuntu for the PC could have easily run Adobe apps (out of the box) I would probably have been using it at home for the past few years. Would love to see it on our phones. It would help to breathe new life into the trusty DHD, if indeed the DHD can run it smoothly enough.

Yeah the DHD doesn't reach the requirements but the never stoped developers for working hard and making it work. For Example " HTC HD2 "

Canonical announced that the new Ubuntu OS would be available in two kinds of phones, one at the entry level and the other one called “High-end superphone."
The hardware requirements are quite acceptable. The Entry level Ubuntu smartphone needs to have at least a 1Ghz Cortex A9 (single core as the bare minimum), 512MB or 1GB memory, a 4-8GB eMMC + SD for storage, and Multi-touch capability.
The high-end Ubuntu "superphone" is a little more demanding and will need at least Quad-core A9 or Intel Atom processors, minimum 1GB for memory, minimum 32GB eMMC + SD for storage, and Multi-touch.
The difference between the two models will consist in what Canonical calls “Desktop convergence.” With the help of a dock and a monitor, the high-end Ubuntu "superphone" can be turned into a thin client for Ubuntu.

despite the fact that QSD8255 architecture is simliar to Cortex A8, it easily reaches 1.5-1.7Ghz and with 700MB RAM it should be well above the minimum requirements, so performance shouldn't be an issue in any way..... Let's hope devs will succeed in integrating A8 based CPUs drivers.
I doubt, that it will be usefull. Just think about all the apps that support sharing with other OS and the SaaS through browsers. no need for DHD ubuntu here.
Ubuntu is a hell ride on desktop due to Unity. Hope it becomes joy ride on mobile phone.
Ahem
I do believe that Ubuntu stated
Our phones will use the same drivers that Android use

I do hope I remember this correctly or that I didn't dream this up.
Hopefully, if I did remember, this means that we will not need to tinker with Ubuntu too much just to get it running

The new version has been designed to work on last and current-generation Android handsets which share the Linux kernel. This means Ubuntu can re-use existing software drivers to control the hardware.

Hey,
I think one of the main problem will be the disk space because I think it will be impossible to run a dual dual on a acceptable speed. But as on every OS, the apps will decide.
Anyway, it will be nice to see some players on the field of the market
I think Ubuntu Phone OS will work with DHD. Its Linux Kernel, Linux OS. Its would be great when they release the source code.
Just remember HTC Said about the Sense 4.0 it will not work correctly on the DHD, it will lag. Now the DHD has Sense 4.1, we also have jellybean and icecream sandwich.
For the DHD there is no such word as can't.
I think it would take a long time to port Ubuntu to DHD
