Windows 8 on HD2?

http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/05/microsoft-confirms-arm-support-is-coming-in-windows-will-play-n/

Microsoft has just confirmed that the next major revision of Windows, what we'll call Windows 8 for now, will include ARM support

Microsoft announced that the next version of Windows will support System on a Chip (SoC) architectures including ARM-based systems from partners NVIDIA, Qualcomm and Texas Instruments.

So now it will be possible

If Windows Phone 8 is an improvment over WP7 just like Windows 7 was with Vista
Then I'd say yes!!!
Eg: Window 7 runs good on my netbook where's Vista hogs like crap!

I'm not talking about Windows Phone, but actual Windows.

hmm, yes - hoping to have a dual core tegra 2 by then which should zip along quite nicely running windows.

By the time Windows 8 rolls out, we will probably be up to quad-core Cortex-A15 processors. Which sound much better suited for running Windows 8.

Will be nice to see a Windows 8 Build on the HD2... but the leaked Win8 versions are not the ARM version yet!

Windows 8
I just got a hold of BETAs of windows 8 if anybody (DEVS) needs it i can send the links,, PM me
PS I only have a netbook can't run WM so i can't test it for legit. but is worth.the try.. I think.
I also can be a alpha or beta tester on the HD2 since I have 3 HD2s

Why don't you *****slap yourself.
Windows 8 build 7955 was *LEAKED* LONG AGO on p2p networks.
Then why even fake all this "I have a DEV beta", "My sources" and all stuff ?

[Q] Which Android Version is the best and fastest for HTC Touch HD?

Hello,
i can see here Threads with Android 2.1, 2.2, and so on - it gives *.zip Versions,
it gives *.cab Versions, ... it gives SD Versions, it gives Flash Versions, .. on this
Android Version doesn´t work Bluetooth, on the other Android Version doesn´t
work the Camera ans so on ... - i am totaly confused.
Can anyone tell me please what is the best and fastest Android Version for my
HTC Touch HD?I have flashed on my Device Windows Mobile 6.5, but now i want
Android on it.
What i need/must work on my Device:
-HSDPA
-WLAN/WiFi
-AppStore
-GPS
-Android in german language
Can anyone give me a link where i can find an Android Version for my Device - please?
Thank you and sorry for my bad english .

FRX07.1 should work for all the things you have listed.
GPS is still kinda flaky tho, just FYI.

Thank you for your answer . Is there anywhere a german install instructions,
because my english is badder than bad. I am scared that i am doing something
wrong and my Device is "dead".
Can please anyone translate the Instructions in german language?

I do not speak German, so I'd just run the instructions thru a translator - which is obviously not so great.
However, if you can manage to get Android installed, look for an app "MoreLocale2" on the Market. It will allow you to add languages to the system.

I don´s know what Point 4 means:
4. Screen calibration - you have three choices:
Re-use an old ts-calibration file if you have it and you know it's good.
Download the ts-calibration.zip file and extract it to where you put the rest of the files (root of SD or in a folder - make sure it all stays together!)
Manually calibrate - boot with no ts-calibration file and watch the boot process - you'll be asked to hit 5 points to calibrate the screen. If you have issues calibrating, try an older kernel (1225 works well) Once you have the calibration file hold on to it (make 15 copies if it's a good one ), reboot & go back to the newest kernel!

My Touchscreen is calibrated.
Edit:
This is now the Root of my SanDisk 16 GB SDHC-Card:

But my problem 1: What it means with Poin 4? I can´t find a "ts-calibration.zip"
file on my device.
And my problem 2: I can´t find Point 5.
My last problem - 3: In point 6 i read "Run haret.exe". Does this mean i must
start Windows Mobile 6.5 on my "Blackstone", then i must switch to the "Datei
Explorer", then to "Speicherkarte" and then to "HaRET.EXE" and start this? Is
that right?

The file is attached to the FRX07.1 thread. Download the attachment, extract it, and place the ts-calibration file at the root of the SD, with all the other files.

Yes, you go to file explorer and run HaRET.exe... What's confusing about that?

Ok - i try it.
Last questions: Can be the SIM-Card in the Device or must it be out of it?
Can i go back to WM 6.5? If yes - how to do it?
EDIT:
It´s done and it works, and the best - it is automaticly in german Language.
So - and now i must test it.
Thank sooooooo much - Thanks, Thanks, Thanks.
EDIT 2:
How can i connect my Device with my PC (Windows XP Pro)? ActiveSync doesn´t
work, because now Android works on my Device .
EDIT 3:
It´s done and all works fine - no questions anymore.

So, you're good? All the other questions answered? Reboot to get back to WinMo. Read the FAQ for USB - it doesn't exactly work like it should because Android is running off of the SD card.

I saw a nand release which was massively buggy but it worked for some bits. It was pretty swift.
So I think it can run... It needs a heck of a lot of work, but lack of devices seems to be thr big hurdle, and that other phones are coming cheap now...
The sd builds work pretty darn well if you ask me, I used one for awhile as my main OS and it did well considering!

Oppo Find 5 Root with CASUAL

Introduction
Here's a one-click root method for the Oppo Find 5. You can find source here: https://code.google.com/p/android-casual/source/browse/#svn/trunk/GUI/src/SCRIPTS
The way this works is it will reboot your device into fastboot, boot a kernel, inject root and SuperSU(available on Android Market), set permissions, test itself and let you know if it passed or failed.
CASUAL also provides an unroot option to remove root permissions. This can also be done from within SuperSu.
Instructions
Open CASUAL with JAVA. Do you have Java?
Select which script you want (root or recovery_
Click the do-it button
All scripts in CASUAL are automated. Simply click the button and it will "do it". If you are a windows user, please ensure you are using proper drivers.

About CASUAL
CASUAL stands for Cross-platform ADB Scripting, Univeral Android Loader. CASUAL jar files are a wrapper for the CASUAL scripting language. CASUAL allows rapid and accurate deployment of hacks and exploits. CASUAL allows for automatic updating of its scripts via pushes to the SVN server at android-casual.googlecode.com. While I expect no problems at all, if at any time a serious problem is detected with the script, i can flip a kill switch to shut CASUAL downand you will be brought to a support page.... most likely here. This is intended to add a level of security so that you know this will be safe.

Thank you very much. I will check it in few days
Edit: And, for sure, if it works, you will have a beer

Thanks a lot Adam. Will try this today.

Thank you for the script. I will try it in soon days, when I will receive my Oppo Find 5 32GB. The device is still in Guangzhou Good that I am in China :angel:

Nice,now to get it....

Could you please confirm it will work in any Oppo Find 5? Or only in Oppo Find 5 with international firmware?

It should work with all, unless there is some sort of locked down version.

I've read you have Chinese version. Is that right? If so, what about Gapps? Does them run with no problem?

thanks for your hard work
but i have a problem:
I startet ubuntu from a CD and installed the libusb.
But there is no way the "Hack Pack" could recognize the x909.
USB-Debugging is on.
I also tried it in windows. I installed the adb driver for my x909 but the "Hack Pack" cannot recognize it either.
Do know where there could be a failure?
Thanks

Wow,
Bought the phone last Friday @ ebay.com , [ getting it in about a week or so..]
and now there is root ! :silly:
Thanks for this Adam, I really appreciate it

Any plans for it's own forum?
BTW. How much did you spend on this thing, and from where? I'd like to get one as well... (If they release the sources, that is.)

There may be an update which you need. I applied a manual update last week which made ADB work properly with all previous versions of ADB. You also need drivers. I don't know which ones yet.

think I'm going to wait for the Int'l launch before getting it... probably no warranty for those chinese versions bought on ebay(and ebay/chinese resellers - >$600... oppousa.com website says $500)
might want to put th emodel number (x909), helps for searching
@those who have the device, how is it? most youtube videos/reviews have the beta version of the phone, or are just walking advertisements, wondering how good the final retail version is

Thanks for your response.
Do you mean an update for the phone? Where did you get it?
Or an update for the computer? The installation of ubuntu is completly fresh. I just added the libusb and java to run the "Hack Pack".
Did ubuntu immediately recognize your Oppo Find 5 with only libusb installed additionally? Or what software do i need furthermore?
I would like to use the Gapps but if i install the play store from an apk, it just force closes all the time. (like every other gapp)

International firmware released:

both virtualbox and genymotion have versions for linux.
so it probably would work using the proper install versions.

Forgive my ignorance but what do I need to do here?

I have two OnePlus 8's. Tested this method and works both on my global and T-mobile variant.
Also, it is weird when you check the about phone section, our cpu processor now says Snapdragon 855 lol
Root:
- Unlock Bootloader (if not yet unlocked)
- Download and install attached magiskv23.0 apk
- I have provided different Color OS12 root toolkits depending on the Software Version you installed. Download and extract.
- Reboot to bootloader
- Run coloroot.bat
- Done
To downgrade: use MSM download tool and flash your stock firmware / alternatively I flashed an incompatible boot.img via fastboot, ROM will crash and you will boot automatically in bootloader mode. Go to recovery and format data & cache, after a few reboots, system will go back to my previous Oxygen OS 11.0.9.9 build.

The actual version of this build is C.07 anf I corrected my title already..Is CBT 5 a later build for Coloros12? Could you share it?

This version is one build behind. Latest is C.08.will share it soon

oxygen 11.0.10.10 Does it work on

Also keep in mind that ColorOS by default has about 400 system apps installed. About 100 of those are random Chinese bloatware and spyware apps that can't be disabled without root. They somehow disabled using ADB commands to remove apps (fishy).
Im running c.08 right now fiddling with stuff but wouldn't recommend as a daily driver

Here is the ColorOS12 C.08 for Oneplus 8 Pro...

yes still a lot of kinks. for one, I had to turn on and off USB debugging in C.07 just to get adb detected. Just installed C.08 and it feels a little bit smoother compared to c.07.

Yeah I guess that was for oneplus 8 pro. I flashed the link you are using and it's working. Also made root to work.

what is the better way for stability and clean UI? Color, Oxygen, Custom, or ditch the brand?

I personally daily drive OxygenOS. It's very stable and I like the look and feel. However AICP ROM, is by far the smoothest and cleanest experience for the Oneplus 8 at the moment. Big ups to that dev (semdoc) he's a genius been using his roms for years.

Does anyone know if it works on a oneplus 8 tmobile IN2017?
I am on global rom 11.0.10.10.IN21AA

If you know the developer of that ROM, please ask him to remove the built-in su (or whatever magisk detects). There's a possibility I'm thinking of some other ROM, but I think this was the one I saw that in.
Thanks.
OOS is a bit crazy with the aggressive power management. Overall, though, I do like it better than Samsung, heh.
