I mean the arm copy...it'll most likely never be sold as a seperate product. Just built in
[Windows 8 General] TechJunkiesCA:
1.	WinMo wasn’t open source either. Unlike WinMo, Windows licenses can be purchased.

2.	Considering the fact that Intel and Google are now working together, the likelihood of cross compatible hardware specs are high for both Arm and Intel chips

3.	This OS if it stays in close to current form will be a sort of hybrid of mobile/desktop OS. The mobile side will create a need for sideloaded apps, tweaks, reg hacks etc.

4.	It is almost certain that Windows Phone will converge with this os down the line and I would argue that this forum has potential to be the most used forum of the site so the earlier the devs get started the better!

This porting work will indeed happen. Just not on this forum aparently/unfortunately. Discussions about illegal software is a far cry from hosting illegal software. Developers often experiment with breaking laws for learning about a system. exe - tutorials about changing esn # with specific notes that you should not do it. It's just an experiment.

My question is it against the rules to discuss or link to other sites that house these ports? It used to be at least overlooked. See example below and there are countless others in the older stuff.

In the past XDA was much more loose about this type of stuff and was my first place to look for the dream goal of putting a desktop class OS on a PDA.
[Windows 8 General] eXecuter.bin:
But do you honestly think anyone will care much about it?

Take Mac OS X for instance. It clearly states in the EULA that installing the software on unapproved/non-Mac hardware are illegal, and yet there are tons of people with dedicated forums hacking away at it to make it run on various PC hardwares, and still ongoing for years.
[Windows 8 General] ugothakd:
Good point...people will try. But the bootloaders are most likely different. Maybe devices with hacked bootloaders (captivate) would be possible.

If you own a valid license it can't be illegal anyways be it ARM version or not.

We'll see how microsoft releases the product and how many different versions there are in what form.
[Windows 8 General] dazza9075:
Indeed, i think we need to leave the legalities aside, and use the assumption of....

You have your Legal and valid licence key, this is how you can get it working on x y and Z

Of course, if it is only Sold as OEM then legally you dont have leg to stand on, OEM copies are for the sole use on the hardware in which is was purchased with, i think the licence says it allows a number of hardware upgrades but you are not intitled to rip it off one PC and dump it on another one. (assuming its the same as a Win 7 Licence), yes people do do it, but that doesnt make it legal or condonable, so if thats the case the XDA couldnt allow anything to do with it

But lets say it can be brought as a retail package, then there is nothing to stop us from attempting to install it on anything we like, infact it may even be easier than we think given that MS usually gives a shed load of drivers, the tricky bit will be getting the bootloaders to allow it.

Forbidden, not illegal. The EULA doesn't really have any legal basis whatsoever. Apple can deny you support on your product if you break the EULA though.

What game are you trying to move to the phone? Check and see if the charge has enough RAM to support that game. Also try deleting expendable data on the phones internal storage space. The internal storage space is not that big and could be the cause of your issue.

+1. You want to flash that from H-Boot (turn on phone holding volume button down and pressing start (end) button. It should read it and ask if you want to load it. Then, after you go through the process hit the green (phone) button so you don't reboot, then hit the home button to get into recovery. It prompts you for everything.

i purchased cheap arnova 8 (first gen - resistive screen 800x600, rockchip 2818 @ 600 mhz i believe) just for playing some kids movies when i travel with little one

could someone tell me what format, codec, resoultion, bitrate etc. should i use to get best quality BUT SMOOTH video?

i can encode pretty much anything, but i have no idea if/what formats can take advantage of some decoding acceleration (if anything like that is possible on that device) and it is pain in the... to do that trial and error method

EDIT: another source claims that this chip is clocked at 600mhz, that is probably true as: "The Rockchip 2818 goes up to 640 MHz frequency."

Hi..

I just want to ask that there's a toolbox for loading Linux in android,we can port Ubuntu in hd 2 but why we can't port windows XP in HD 2, it is completing its requirements of 400 MHz processor and 64 MB of ram. Bt HD 2 have 1 gigahertz processor and 448 MB of ram then why it is not possible.....???

Is there any project on XP for HD 2.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] QzyneC:
This is not possible! You must read about architecture of processor. In HD2 is ARM. Windows XP does not support this type of processor. It was not until Windows 8 is to have support for the ARM architecture.

Read about: ARM, CISC RISC, IA-32, ISA. Then you understand this.

The phone is currently running the standard x10 2.3.3 Update. I havent changed a thing neither have i rooted the phone, its litary stock.

I will be greatfull for any idea's or help you guys can come up with.

Perhaps not wise but i have just installed the sensation se 1.72.401.1 rom from the RUU.

Everything seemed to work well. I s-offed and rooted it and the rom ran very well.

After installing a handfull of applications my root explorer told me that 'phone storage is getting low.' I then checked my storage space in settings\sd and phone storage and no information was available, it just says 'restricted access changed.'

I deleted most of my apps but this did not make any difference.

Has anybody any idea what could be causing this?? Any advice would be apprecated. :confused:

Might be issues with the repartitioning due to the different internal memory with the XE. This is why I would never flash an RUU that isn't for my device. Go custom, it's the best way

I'd go back to 1.45.401.2 and then go for a custom ROM based on 1.72.401.1

Other than that try a hard reset

[Droid 2 Global General] strakajagr:
So I have read thoroughly and have exhausted every solution I can find, to no avail. That said, here is what I'm dealing with:

I am trying to flash my D2G with the .330 SBF file.

Just so there is no confusion. I am using full admin rights: I got to rsd.exe in the folder, shift-rgt click, etc.

For full discloser, on the bootloader screen (up arrow + power) it says:

Bootloader

D2.35

Battery OK

OK to Program

Connect to USB

Data Cable

Upon flashing I get this error:

ERROR: Phone[0000]: Error sending JUMP command Device API Error: 0xE0020047 Address: 0x82000000 Command: JUMP - on device ID 0.

I have tried putting the sbf file in every suggested folder (my docs, root, root/moto, etc) Nothing works.

My USB is 2.0 so that isn't the issue.

Can anyone help break through this wall? I have been reading and trying for hours. I wouldn't post here unless it was an absolute last resort. Thank you in advance for helping.
[Droid 2 Global General] jbroderick:
Confirm that your SBF file is not corrupt. Try downloading it from a different source and check hashes
[Droid 2 Global General] strakajagr:
I have tried 3 sbf's thus far. 2 .330's (from different locations) and 1 .290. The error message is always the same. I'm not sure if it matters, but I have clockword mod installed on my phone as well as Fission.
[Droid 2 Global General] jbroderick:
I'm not sure if having Mods and roms who affect your phone. But just incase have you tried clearing the cache,data,partition from the recovery menu?
[Droid 2 Global General] strakajagr:
I have... again, no luck. It just appears that rsd lite flat out can't communicate with my phone even though it definitely SEES the phone when it's connected. For the life of me I can't figure out why. I found ONE thread on another site where someone posted the same error and reported the same problem. Someone linked him to a boiler plate SBF installation instruction page, which obviously I have tried unsuccessfully several times. It's killing me knowing that there is so much more performance in my phone that I just can't get. My original Droid outperformed this POS. UGH
[Droid 2 Global General] jbroderick:
That certainly is frustrating. The only thing I can think of is trying a different USB cable that is shielded or otherwise, or another computer/OS maybe it's causing a error. If you've already tried that with no results, all I can say is sorry man and keep trying.
[Droid 2 Global General] cranky_dan:
I was just reading this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1236781 where the final poster said there are a couple of bad .330 sbfs circulating the web, and that the best way around it was to try to sbf a .29 and then ipdate from there.

BTW, op, I agree. My droid one can kick my D2G's ass blindfolded.

Good luck,

[Droid 2 Global General] kurpter:
Hi mate, i have had this issue before, please try this as this is the way around my issue =

follow this link and download the rar file (http://www.multiupload.com/FIW8B8TJ7I), flash this file (using rdslite 4.9 , Make sure it is rds lite 4.9!) = http://www.mediafire.com/file/9c6u55c26e1h9y1/RSD Lite 4.9.rar

Being on clock work etc... wont make a differnce but to put your phone in boot loader mode, please do it this way and not the other loaders way.

turn off the phone, press and hold the up and down volume buttons together (make sure you are pressing and holding them down together keep them hold down and dont let go) press the power button while still holding the volume buttons and wait till bootloader comes and then let go, onces it says it in there

Launch RSDLite (make sure device appears in window)

Select SBF (doesnt matter where the file is, just point it to the right place)

click start.

Once it gets to 100% , pull it out and restart the phone (it should reboot it normally but I find it doesn't always do it) so either unplug and let it reboot or pull the battery out and reboot, fingers crossed it will boot in to stock and then you can upgrade from there.

[Droid 2 Global General] Gasai Yuno:
sbf_flash is used to load an SBF image (which should be stored on your PC for sbf_flash to access it) into your phone.

It's not a tool to flash OTA/normal update packages.

To flash a normal update.zip you need to use either stock (for stock firmware updates) or ClockworkMod Recovery (for custom ROMs).

Try to do a factory reset, remember that all things will be wiped, even sdcard so do take a backup first.

They do not disappear with factory reset. You have to root and delete the apk's from system/app.
