About
A little about how this app came to be! It’s really quite simple, regular users shouldn’t have to fumble with the terminal to get a custom device experience.
We quickly realized after getting a boat load of Nexus devices that flashing via terminal with all our specific tweaks took too long. Don’t get the wrong idea we love the terminal, but we just thought, for the people out there who love their Android device and may not love code there must be a better way. We started coding, and DroidTools was born. It’s simple, easy to use, and good looking.
DroidTools is an Android utility that provides the same capabilities you'd find using ADB terminal commands available from Google, the difference being this application presents a more user friendly experience for the somewhat novice user. (Research still required) to understand what and why for example you'd wish to flash a different baseband ect. This utility doesn't have embedded phone home capabilities, and this application doesn't store ANY device specific information. If you wish to use the integrated wifi capabilities DroidTools will store only the IP address of your device to attempt connection (at the time of your choosing), and can be reset at anytime. We developed this application because we simply wanted to contribute to the Android community, and in that spirit we've made this application available at no cost to you.

WP-Notes is an app which transfers the Windows Phone 7 UI to Android.
From the name of it, it is a Notes app which lets you take notes as fast as possible and review them whenever you need to go back to them!
For now, the WP-Notes will not be released until it's in a good condition to be used.
About the price of this app, you will be the ones who will choose!
You need to tell me what should be the price. Should it be for free ? $0.99 ? Leave any recommendations about the price.
When I get home, I will upload some pictures for you to be able to see how the app actually looks like!
Wish-List:
- Notifications (If you set a specific time to the note, it will notify you whenever that time is reached).
- More customization.
If there is anything you would like to know, just leave a post and I will answer as soon as I see it.
If there are any more suggestions or any more things to add to the Wish-List, please leave a post and I will try my best to add it to the app!
Update-1: Finally! I'm home, I'm really sorry for the long time for not uploading the screenshots, as I didn't have my phone with me.

If u need a beta tester ,here I am
I would love to test that out even it is in development state ,because up to now no note app could make me say wow ,awesome design ..and windows phone UI does this
Ermm is a remember feature already there ? Mean the app gives a notification out If u did a note for a special time ?
Please let me test it
Sent from my HD2 using XDA Premium App
I would also participate as a tester Even alpha tester^^
I think a "remember" function is definitely needed..
Would be best to see the final app for free But when you put a lot of work in the app why not take 0.70$ for it?
i will also like to beta test
Interested in checking it out. Could use a new note app with smooth and simple looks!

About the price, I encourage you to do 2 versions. Both without ads:
1. Free --> Just the basic: notes and the list of all notes (obvious). Anything else.
2. 0-1$ (you need to eat )--> All the extras like Notifications, everything you want.
For example, I really like this app look, but I'm 99% sure I won't pay for a notes app because it's something I use just sometimes. I could ask you to have everything for free, but since you asked really nicely, I believe you won that "respect". That's why I'm asking just for the basic thing: notes and nothing else for free, like a lite version. Without ads, please (wouldn't use it).

Recomendation/wish: Make the title of the new note empty (optional), and the cursor to write pointing to the note body. Also, make that in the notes list, the note body is shown, so if no there is no title, you can see all the notes. I hope I have been clear explaining myself.
Also, an "Add note" button at the bottom of the notes list would be great!
Thank you very much, waiting for it.
Nice! I'm up for beta testing!

Just a suggestion; you should make the top bar all lowercase, where it says Notes and Write. It'll look sexier.
Id like to be a beta tester also if u decide to pick me please send me a PM i have lots of threads to manage
Any progress?

Well this is only the link to download the new and brilliant Android Market.
Official Information:
The new Market client is designed to better showcase top apps and games, engage users with an improved UI, and provide a quicker path to downloading or purchasing your products. For developers, the new Android Market client means more opportunities for your products to be merchandised and purchased.
In the home screen, we've created a new promotional page that highlights top content. This page is tiled with colorful graphics that provide instant access to featured apps and games. The page also lets users find their favorite books and movies, which will help drive even more return visits to Market.
To make it fun and easy for users to explore fresh content, we've added our app lists right to the Apps and Games home pages. Users can now quickly flip through these lists by swiping right or left, checking out what other people are downloading in the Top Paid, Top Free, Top Grossing, Top New Paid, Top New Free, and Trending lists. To keep the lists fresh and relevant, we've made them country-specific for many of the top countries.

To help you convert visitors to customers, we’ve made significant changes to the app details page. We've moved the app name and price into a compact action bar at the top of the page, so that users can quickly download or purchase your app. Directly below, users can flip through screen shots by swiping right or left, or scroll down to read your app's description, what's new, reviews, and more. To help you promote your product more effectively, the page now also includes a thumbnail link to your product video which is displayed at full screen when in landscape orientation.
For users who are ready to buy, we've streamlined the click-to-purchase flow so that users can complete a purchase in two clicks from the app details page. During the purchase, users can also see a list of your other apps, to help you cross-sell your other products.
With a great new UI, easy access to app discovery lists, a convenient purchase flow, and more types of content, we believe that the new Market client will become a favorite for users and developers alike.
Watch for the new Market client coming to your phone soon. We've already begun a phased roll-out to phones running Android 2.2 or higher — the update should reach all users worldwide in the coming weeks. We encourage you to try the update as soon as you receive it. Meanwhile, check out the video below for an early look.

Okay, I know this is gonna be a huge controversy, but that's not why I'm posting this. I am somewhat knowledgeable in how these phones work, and always like to try something new. Some people like Android, some like Windows Mobile. Thats why I propose this. Make an attempt to port Windows Mobile from the HD2. It seems to be the most similar phone to ours running Windows Mobile, and with as much as Windows Mobile has been "modded" or "hacked", whatever you wish to call it, I think it'd be possible. First matter would be getting it to boot in the first place, then drivers, etc. I don't know the chances of doing it or anything, but I'm gonna give it a try anyway. If you wanna help me out, let me know.
EDIT: If any devs are wanting to tackle this, I have found what seems to be extracted roms for the HD2 and the SE Xperia x1. Link: http://goo.gl/f4hWa. I am unsure of how to do this, so I'm pretty well confused. Any help is appreciated.
Any news on an WM sd based version on HD2?
When I had mine, people where talking about this possibility.
Maybe then it would be easier to port to DHD.
Personally, I'm not interested.
But it would be a nice challenge.
Yeah I need to get it all extracted first. Gonna take time since its new to me.

Get 6.5 and that'll be possible. Going straight to porting 7.5 is like a nerd thinking he can date the hottest girl in school.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
The problem with Windows Mobile is that the developers wont port it due to licensing issues. If they do and post the ROM here XDA will get a big lawsuit from Microsoft. The reason they can port Android to everything is because Android is open source and there are no licensing restrictions. Microsoft has locked down WM and to modify it would be breaking the rules and will cause some legal issues.
Wowww.... Everyone with winmo already on their phones modifies so that makes little sense.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using XDA App
7.5 yes, not 6.5! I hated 6.5 on my hd2, it looked so old and clunky.

Because people who have Windows Mobile/Windows Phone on their phones have a license from Microsoft to use the software. Posting a hacked version for people to use who don't already have said license would be akin to posting warez which is banned under forum rules.
Unless you've already got windows mobile legitimately running on another device that you own; maybe you could delete it from that phone and claim that you were using that license to run it on your DHD instead...
Not going to happen.
I agree with the sentiment, It would be nice to see WP7.5+ on our beloved DHD's.
But read this article about what MS did in the days of WM.
I don't think XDA would want that again.

Not calling you a liar but i don't see how u can install as far as market is concerned its not compatible not to mention it doesn't show up when you search. BTW im in same region, im in Massachusetts
BUT you do like to use new custom ROMS so maybe you have a market version we don't.
I'm using stock 4.0.3/market 3.4.4
It doesnt show when searching market but anyone can find it if they search from internet browser. Click on link and select market to open.....it will say in bold *your device isn't compatible with item* and you cant download

Tricking Market into thinking you have another phone you need to edit your build.prop....were it shows your phone change to another
I haven't tested
also make sure you pick a phone with same hardware....any galaxy s phone since most 3D games are developed with GPU in mind
If you decide to pick a non sgx540 device like snapdragon or tegra you could always use chainfire3D to but doesn't always work.

Welcome both, I hope you're as pleased with your phone as I am. I'd strongly suggest having a good read of Dr Ketan's root guide in the development section. Chances are you'll need to downgrade to root and the doc's guide is excellent.

Hey! Yes, very pleased with it. I'm a little disappointed with the Android email apps, though. I've come from an iPhone so I was used to good email on that. I just can't find an Android app that comes close. But other than that, I can't fault the Note.
