Dear all,
as I wrote on this other post (excuse me for crossposting - please mods to close the wrong-placed one):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=384850
there are two guys that recompiled Android for ARMv4 processor - like ARM920T, the trinity processor!!
Here you have the links:
http://benno.id.au/blog/
http://perpetual-notion.blogspot.com/2008/10/android-freerunnder-updates.html
They are working on the Freerunner and Neo1973 devices.. but the processor is the same..
Anyone out there wants Android on our beloved trinity?
At the moment I have no spare time (and skills) to take the challenge.. but I hope that someone will do.
I think that with the source code the CLZ and Thumb mode issues are completely addressed.
Anyone could confirm this to me?
Best regards,

Hi,
i'm also interested to see android on my htc hermes. i'm waiting benos new blog entries to see if he was able to run the code on "Neo1973".
What is the diference between htc hermes and htc dream (g1) regarding other chips beside the prcessor?
i don't think that drivers included in android can cover all chips in hermes. can someone maybe make an list of same and different devices(chips) in this 2 devices?
thanks
G phone?
So this is the same OS that the G phone is sporting yeah?
If The flashing process isn't harder than the current process then I'd be up for this. Also will it brick the phone?
Need some people to test.
Great Topic!

Since the openmoko is very like the p3600 I will give these patches a try. Let you know!
That would be awesome !
Please tel us your progression.
I'm waiting for a Android ROM for my Trinity ^_^
This is what we can try. The openmoke images are out. Since the openmoke is very like the p3600 we could give these images a try. The images are located over here.

We need haret for the images as well.

The thing we also need is to have a proper default.txt for haret. Who can help?
Hi piethein,
This will replace the rom we have installed in the trinity or is like an emulator running under wm ?
We dont loss any wm rom that we have installed ?
Dear all,
here you have some (bad) news:
http://groups.google.com/group/android-porting/browse_thread/thread/906dcae21176d4e9#
at the link above you will find a thread I started in adroid-porting developers group.
http://groups.google.com/group/android-porting/browse_thread/thread/0b3743f8151783f6#
at this link there are other infos, but let me report two msgs:
shaice:
Dear all,
sorry to bother you with (probably) silly questions but..
I own a HTC trinity that use the same ARM920T processor of Freerunner.
I saw benno's and christopher's posts on their blogs...
Is there any chance that your binaries will run on other ARM920T
phones?
Thank you in advance for any answer.
Best regards,

Christopher Friedt:
Hi Shaice,
In short, no (for now...)

sigh sob!
Now I'm searching for some fresh news.
Stay tuned!

uhmm reading somewhere in the group I found this post:

The shipping G1s have 192MB. Earlier development devices had 128MB,
and that wasn't quite enough to smoothly run the applications that
ship with the G1. Even if all the device's RAM could be allocated to
Android (no baseband, no framebuffer) 64MB would probably be very
tight, to the point where even foreground applications would risk
getting killed because of low memory conditions (the browser
especially comes to mind). In 32MB the system is likely to be
thrashing for memory even before it's done starting the system server
(if it can even start it at all).

Mmmmh no good news for us.. :-/

Hi there,
basically these are great news!!!

....but forget about running exactly these images on your trinity units.
It won't work
I don't want to digg your hope but there's a lot to do to make it real.
First:
You'll need a kernel that suits to trinity and offer some features the android OS needs.
Second:
You'll have to modify the image in jffs2 format to get loaded on trinity or build up a tricky environment to mount these image files after booting the kernel.
Have fun!

Android on Trinity wanted!!
now that the full Android code is out it's possible!!
we can have Android on Trinity!!
please help... I cannot stand anymore WM!!
IMHO there is no enough memory to run smoothly android on trinity...
but stay tuned..

Dear all,
there is no hope for trinity users like us to see android running on our wonderful device.
As stated here:
http://groups.google.com/group/android-internals/browse_thread/thread/788c201e75ca7351
Android don't run on the ARM920T used in Neo1973.
In the following site
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARM_architecture#ARM_cores there is a table
where are described all the ARM cpu.
Android framework is compiled for the ARMv5 architecture version, so run on
the all the processors that belong to this architecture version and also in
some cpu of the new architecture (ARMv6/v7).
Other information can be found on this site

hello! i own a HTC Touch 3G and i was wondering if it is possible to remove the Windows 6.1 and install a version of Linux. If this is possible i would like to know how to do it, if i can save the Windows 6.1 that came with my phone in case of mistake and what are the available versions of Linux in PPC. Thanks.

Hi! There is no such ROM Linux! Which future for HTC Touch 3G is no clear, because now I see nobody ROM to continue to build models anymore ... Should probably only switch to another PPC?
thanks for the reply. nobody release anything like that for HTC t3232 all this time ? i think i will stay with my WM6.1.

Well, considering you are new, I am not sure if I should go easy, as you should have recently just read the rules on posting on XDA.
But anyways, feel free to use the search feature, it is very useful.
For roms, go to the rom section, find and run DSIXDA's device_info.bat which will give you all your tech specs about your phone, and will enable you to find a rom. Read all the stickies as well, as these will inform you on what you need to do to be able to run a custom rom.
For themes, you can check the Windows Mobile Themes section. This will give you lots of ways to customise your phone.
Also, What was the shouting for, Caps Lock day was some time last week...
Performance wise, there is limit to what the elf can do, it is an aging device. But there are some overclock programs etc out there, and task managers to help keep your ram free, some roms come with a camera hack which disables the camera to save about 3-4mb of ram, or there abouts.
Now its up to you to have a search, if you have any questions, make sure you post in the correct thread. Due to the age of the elf(in), it is highly likely someone else has already had the same issue or idea or query.

Not sure you meant Hebrew or homebrew. Anyways, I'll respond to both:
1. Homebrew is achievable in WP7 Mango, read here
2. Hebrew support is not natively in WP7 but you can use a homebrew app that allows you to write in Hebrew
3. There's no Android on Focus yet, but the possibility exists. Magldr allows you to boot multiple OSes

Follow the advice of mwang on his profile. There is a lot of reading and studying to accomplish what you desire, but work hard enough and you may someday become a novice chef.

First, read everything here. If there were one simple utility to create Windows Phone 7 ROMs everyone would be creating their own. You have to learn to walk before you run, and the same goes for phone technology. DFT's site is in China, and there is a wealth of knowledge there, if you are adept in Chinese.
