Can I install and use Windows 7 Mobile on my Shift?

I only want it for the Xbox Live function.

I have an extra Shift so I want to put WM7 on one so I can link it to my xbox.

Any ideas or anything?
[EVO Shift 4G General] iczerjones:
Aside from the technical hurdles (WP7 is a closed system, we have no method to present drivers to the OS for our phone), there is the legal one. WP7 must be licensed for each handset and as such, unless you've found a way to purchase a single license for use on a non-WP7 handset, you cannot legally apply the OS to the phone even if it would work from a technical standpoint.

Sorry. :(

And that is EXACTLY what I was hoping to accomplish. Sadly though I didn't stumble across your thread last night when I had soft bricked my brothers phone and was doing a million google searches to find the work around on his boot loop frenzied phone (Recovery console was even corrupt).

So after what seemed like 1000 snipits from different articles I was able to mostly compile this. And then throw in some warnings for future rooters/flashers.

Had I known Samsung's own 2.2 release was going to be so AWFUL compared to 2.1 I never would have upgraded. But then again if I probably never would have flashed/rooted. haha. Oh well what can you do.

[Captivate General] Lucke:
no clue if this would work, or if it would even be possible.

i'd love to have my phone synced up with my in dash nav, similar to the way the video out works to put the phone on the tv, but with the only difference of being that you could control the phone through the nav (slightly older Eclipse AVN6610 with no usb in).

without completely hacking up wiring and possibly even screwing around with the nav firmware, is there any way possible to do this?

if not, then i'll have to settle with having my phone at least wired for sound/music out.

thanks

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chrispyweener:
Hi guys,

After much searching on this site I'm still none the wiser as to how to actually debrand my DHD to stock HTC firmware. I found a guide here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10113881&postcount=11

But steps 1 and 2 both link to the same URL - does step 2 not actually need doing?

Then I found this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=917513

But then lots of people criticised it for missing bits out like S-OFF and using 1.72 firmware as opposed to 1.32.

I'm lost now over what all the H-BOOT/ S-OFF/ Radio S-OFF stuff means and where I can actually obtain a 1.32 RUU from. Visionary seemed to be the only bit that was simple and well documented.

Ultimately I'm not interested in rooting long term, nor applying custom ROM's/ radios etc afterwards - all I want to do is get my DHD as HTC would have it, minus all the Vodafone nonsense and so I can get updates from HTC as opposed to waiting 10 years for Vodafone to butcher them first. Luckily it at least currently accepts any carriers SIM....

Can anyone help un-muddy the waters for me?

Thanks in advance.

Chris.

I have the Logitech Revue with google tv and I was wondering if it would be possible to get that controller to work as a wifi keyboard with the NC. The revue is android and there are Apps that allow the NC to control the revue, I just want a reverse capability. Thoughts?
[Nook Color Accessories] luciferii:
not sure about that, but cm7 has bluetooth and i sometimes use a bluetooth keyboard with my nook

[Nook Color Accessories] JLCollier2005:
Although I'm not 100% sure about this, I've read that wifi keyboards are not supported by the Nook (or any android device, at least not anything from 2.3 and below). The hardware has to be specifically programmed to work with an app on android, and that is why the controller-type apps (like you're talking about, and also the one that allows you to control a PC) work but a keyboard wouldn't.
[Nook Color Accessories] Calla969:
I've never heard that, but it doesn't apply to all android devices because my google tv is running android 2.1. I emailed the developer of the application that allows an android device to control the google tv to ask if reverse compatibility is possible. He responded asking what device in wanted to use the keyboard with. We'll see.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fake:
Ok, guys. After installing and testing some of the best and popular android builds I came around to write my opinions here.

First thing first... I appreciate all the works by guys who made android SD builds.

Second, sorry if my English is not good enough.

I purchased my hd2 about a month ago. And after some research I decide to install wp7 and android on it.

But the question for me was which android build will be more suitable?

Here are some important key features to choose from:

1. Reliable

2. Fast

3. Stable

4. Smooth

5. User friendly

6. Pre-installed programs

7. Development cycle

8. Compatibility

9. Error and bug free

10. Battery usage

11. Cutting edge technology

Between these key features, 3 builds were more competitive.

1. American android

2. Desire DL

3. Rafdriod

For those who like pre install programs, HTC sense and software compatibility, go for Desire DL or Rafdriod which both are based on Froyo 2.2.1, I personally prefer Rafdriod between these two. Because, it's more reliable, less freezes, a bit faster and more battery efficiency. Both Froyo Builds are more android software market installation compatible.

But for those who needs stable, reliable, user friendly, cutting edge technology, error and bug free, smooth, fast and more battery efficiency OS, I recommed using gingerbread builds which American android is one the best builds based on gingerbread 2.3.3

Anyway, you may experience some Android market application installation compatibility issue on gingerbread builds, which I think it’s worth it to wait for newer versions of those applications that work with gingerbread.

Here is comparison Chart Attached

Have a great time installing your Android....
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Black Antitoon:
Thanks. Many if not most of us spend a lot of time for finding the best build for their needs. This is part of the fun, but reading other people's experiences is surely helpful. :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] neoissuperman:
I greatly appreciate this... i have been doong this since my hd2 came in on the second shippment. I have grown tired of following dev's/ cook's just to see there near perfect builds. Then boom they are gone and buiod is stuck. I have been looking to move to rafdroid and now feel confident. So thank you for this info.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] cymagnus:
I am using Rafdriod 4.2 and is running continously 2 days. Use mainly for calls and a bit of wifi, switch to airplane mode when I retire for the night.

I can say the build is excellent and the battery consumption is decent, suitable for normal day-to-day usage. Will try 'American andriod' soon. :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hicube:
Awesome thread. Really appreciate your thoughtful research on the top sd based android.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pappt:
my opinion: both MCCM's and BOYPPC's Gingerbread builds are far better than AmeriCanDroid builds
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Final5k:
wow! it seems American Android is the best since it is free of bugs and smooth....will download & test it ASAP!! Thanks!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] bigxsig:
Thanked! I narrowed my choice down between RAFDROID and DL Desire, mainly because I wanted a rom with SenseUI. After reading this I think I'm gonna go with RAFDROID!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] thivi:
Can you elaborate please?

I have tested MCCM HD 4.0 (Froyo), was laggy and battery eater. DesireDL 2.1 was better for me.

Thanks to the OP for this comparison ! Now I'm hesitating between RafDroid 4.2 and AmericanDroid. Will test both I think...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] pappt:
the HD 4.0 is a 2.2 build, but i talked about Gingerbread builds...MCCM's GB build temporaly kick from xda, but you can try BOYPPC GB v5, it's on the forum.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] shutdown:
I've tried RAF and AA versions.

I found the RAF version very usable but just the odd time it would hang at all the wrong times, trying to answer a call or simply unlocking the device. The rest of the OS was brilliant and worked well. The hanging just made me think i have to try another flavour android.

So I went onto AA.

Seems to fly, no hangs yet but data keeps dropping and that's starting to get annoying. I can be browsing quite happily for the data to just stop working. I've tried various fixes. Thankfully this version doesn't require a restart to get data working but it's still a pain to go and switch off data and then back on again.

Battery life has been average, would have expected better by now to be honest.

If a dev can just meet in the middle I'll be the happiest chap in the world :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Wildcopper:
Good post, I pretty much agree with the comparison.

AmericanDroid is definitely the "best" overall SD Android version on HD2.

Now I will give a subsctancial donation to any developer managing to make a "real" sense build (with HTC sense, and not just a theme) as stable as AmericanDroid, even if the battery life is a bit (not too much) shorter.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] d4v0r:
This is very informative post, and matches my experience. But, since I'm not ready to completely give WM6.5 up, I'd like you to tell me how NAND builds compare to this. If AA gets 10 for stability, reliability, smoothness and speed, would same NAND build get 12? Would NAND Rafdroid score better than SD? How everything compares to native Android devices?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] corrsea:
I personally have given up trying any of the Sense builds because of the battery drain.

MCCM GB V2.2 SD and Americandroid are both on a par (about a days moderate to heavy use) but I seem to have settled on MCCM.

I will go to a nand build in the near future as I have not booted into 6.5 in the last 2 weeks and have not missed it.

I have been testing the 'beta' version of the UI I used to use on winmo and am loving it on top of gingerbread. Can't wait to buy it when it comes out
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Wildcopper:
It's normal MCCM is similar... that guy's not a dev, he copy/pastes the work of other devs among which Americandroid.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] nessqn:
Me too...after trying out various ROMs :D
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] jcbofkc:
That may or may not be true, but I can say MCCM's V4.5 [DESIRE HD Sense] is fast and the data conection is rock solid. I had connection issues with AA. I plan to try AA again to see it those bugs have been worked out.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Marvlesz:
If you compare light grey with pure black, you'll see that the light grey is brighter.

But when you compare the light grey with white, definitely the white will be brighter .

My point is, Just because American's is better than the rest it doesn't mean it's good .

At the end, it's just my opinion . Thanks for the thread :D

I'm currently running EB01 with stoc EC10 with no problems. I want to either run EC10 undervolt or the new standard volt over clocKed. This issue is the only way i can flash them is with SGS Kernel flasher. CWM (Red) will not let me flash the new Kernels. After I install any new Kernel with SGS it runns fine and then freezes the device.

How do i relsolve?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xanius:
I would suggest stepping back and figuring out why cwm isn't working. Do you have the new CWM that JT released(works with all kernels and voodoo)- linked here I think is the newest one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=948722 ?

If not that may be your issue. If you do then that's odd because I have it and don't have the problem with flashing EC10 kernels.

Stock EC10 = adryn's or jt's from source?

Also, do you have voodoo enabled? Are you flashing voodoo or nonvoodoo kernels?

BUt yeah, I think the first step would be to figure out why your CWM is messed up.

If all fails maybe follow one of the tutorials and Odin/Heimdall back to the basics. And go step by step from there.

From EB01 with SC 2.9.2 to EC10

I've checked around and can't seem to find why I'm not able to flash the EC10 kernel. As stated in the title, I'm currently running EB10 with Superclean 2.9.2.

When I boot into recovery, install from SD Card, and select the EC10 ROM from my SD Card (this one from JT - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1010102), it appears to install, says complete, but after rebooting I still show EB10.

Any help greatly appreciated!
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobloblaw1:
You might actually be running the kernel

go into terminal (or download one from market)

type:

su

{Press enter}

cat /proc/version

{press Enter}

You will see:

Linux Version 2.6.32.9 (kernel author@virtualbox) (gcc version 4.4.1 (yada yada yada) COMPILE DATE

If that compile date is the date the the author released the kernel you are running it. If not....sorry but someone else is going to have to help because I'm sleepy and going to bed =)
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bstringy:
You are correct Sir! Thanks for your help! I guess I'll ignore the reading then.

What's getting me lately is battery life. I've been through the fully drain, fully charge stuff and still seem to lose about 40-50% overnight while the phone sits idle for 7-8 hours. Yes, it's a little off topic, but it seems like 10 or 15% loss overnight would be normal, correct?
