I don't think so. This has been discussed in many topics. And in no way belongs in development and should be in general. Basically the answer is no, because Win 8 is going to require an encrypted bootloader built on specific devices. Porting most likely isn't going to happen.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Namidairo:
You aren't going to be able to acquire installable images of Windows 8 RT unless you are an OEM. August 15 is the Technet subs release.

And you sure as heck ain't going to be able to dd the bootloader off for the same reasons you can't now.

Not to mention the god awful hacks needed to get it to run on a device with less than min screen res, and obvious legal issues.

As for that linked driver release. It looks like ye olde nvidia unified driver architecture. It even includes the profiles for games that aren't even on the ARM platform. Not entirely sure why there is Tegra 2 support in there though.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] craigacgomez:
Well, with the "so-called" security crap MS put into Windows regarding bootloaders... as @HydroSkillet said, unless someone manages to get a manufacturer signed, MS approved encrypted bootloader, changes are probably too slim to be considered...

One thing I learned here at xda is never accept the fact that a rom/port/app won't get created for our devices. We are blessed with outstanding devs.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Diamondback:
Since this is becoming more and more a discussion, I'll move it to General.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] litetaker:
EVEN if the port is technically feasible the legality of the port is at best sketchy and plainly put illegal. I hope after drinking the Android coolaid, you guys still remember that Windows is a proprietary OS. And on that grounds alone, I can bet that there is a snowball's chance in hell that that stuff will ever surface on XDA OR Rootzwiki.

In that light, there may be a popsicle's chance in hell that MS may do something to allow people to purchase a license and crap like that. Then may be if MS and the android devs or Asus can figure out a compromise and come up with a way to install it on the device with legally acquired software and a license then yes... But if you are SERIOUSLY expecting a port like an ICS/JB ROM, then I laugh at u! :laugh: LOL! It is M$ man! And u are asking for software piracy on XDA! lemme go and get a good laugh today! I needed it :p :D

End of Story. Good night!

One possibility is for Google and the Android Community to issue a challenge for MS to open source W8. It's about time Bill changes his name to Prometheus.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] litetaker:
Pretty much a long shot. [Side note: I don't claim closed source is in any way less ethical or demeaning or whatever than open source... It is another valid software development model and I kinda hate some type of FOSS enthusiasts who just plain trash Windows from their high horse...] Anyway, Bill Gates doesn't really run the company no more! He is busy doing activism and philanthropic pursuits (he is a very nice guy actually.. But I must say, not the best orator)...

What were we talking about? Oh yeah. Windows 8 on our Tablet.. I think for the benefit of all, I suppose it is best for a proper dev to step in and just say why this can never happen, so that we don't see people asking this again and again only to be utterly disappointed by the reality.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Dnakaman:
Isn't this the reason why Linux exists? Because Microsoft wanted to keep their OS closed source?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Namidairo:
So you want them to open source software that they spent millions developing and are currently charging people to buy?

Do you live in some strange world where Microsoft actually does nice things?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Striatum_bdr:
If you want iOS , buy an iPad.

If you want W8, buy Surface.

There are ports of Win Mobile to other phones but I don't think it will happen with W8. It's called frontal perseveration, a neurological trouble that makes you repeat the same behavior even if it's inappopriate or aimless.

Widows phones are a failure, but instead of changing things they will go on further and harder by closing more and more, with more sophisticated protections/activation procedures and so on.

This thread is nonsense.

The existence of Linux has very little to do with Windows being closed source.

The popularity of Linux however, does to some small extent.

Gnu/Linux exists for several reasons. Gnu is a materialization of Stallman's wish to have an open source OS, Linux is only the kernel part. It was historically a way to compile and use UNIX programs on PC computers.

It's true that it's a reaction to the world of Apple, windows, Sun (UNIX). But not specifically against Windows.

What is the most sad is that Apples took a UNIX bsd base, and made a now closed OS than Redmond's firm...

A problem that is the normal use... no games..no wifi...no videos...no camera....

5 -10 minutes of work on phone (messages, facebook..etc...) -> area getting hot & the touch buttons under the screen too.

someone have a answer for this ?! :confused:

[HTC One V] hereticangel:
I was wondering if it will be possible to overclock the gpu , because my cpu of my htc one v seems to be insanely good , even ran the max 2ghz for few hours , then restarted when i moved the app the storage card, so could be just sd card bug or something , but i switched it back to 1.8ghz(245mhz idle) , anyway my quadrant score is quite low because of the gpu , because i hit 4,1k cpu score at 2ghz , and have seen other phones being able to overclock the gpu.

Hope to see the gpu overclock able soon, will make this phone even better :P
[HTC One V] Ken-Shi_Kun:
My can withstand the 2ghz constantly without overheat, but that is the cpu. The gpu is a different story.
[HTC One V] hereticangel:
hmm just check again my memory and Io score seems to be a problem , score just over 1.9k, seems to low
[HTC One V] maxwen:
This is a known issue with the Titanium kernel (KISS has e.g. the same values here as stock)

you can read about it in the kernel thread for this kernel

But I doubt that those benchmarks values make a noticable difference in daily usage

So if you need OC more then 1.5GHz just stay with Titanium.

If you think that I/O values will make your device slower use KISS kernel

[Trophy General] brew182:
Believe me, I have searched and can't find a definite answer.

Assuming I get an unlock code from Verizon, and run the Connection Setup, will the Trophy work on T-Mobile at 3G speeds? Yes or no.

If yes, will it work on Verizon again after that, or is it "banned" from their network?\

Hoping for an answer from someone who has actually done this before.

Thanks! :D
[Trophy General] TheXev:
Yes, it should work, you may get 3G speeds, but not HSPA+ speeds.. I do believe. There have been others who have done it, they would know. Even if you get an unlock code, you can still use the phone on Verizon so long as the ESN remains clean. If you really want a Trophy on T-Mobile though.. I'd wager you are better off getting the GSM Euro model for full network speed.
[Trophy General] brew182:
Thanks for the input. Maybe some back story would explain it a little better. Debating on whether or not to switch to T-Mobile monthly 4g from Verizon, saving some money a month. I currently have the Verizon Trophy and wanted to try it out for a month to see how the service compares before I make the switch. Any other help is appreciated from someone who has done this before!
[Trophy General] TheXev:
For me, the choice is clear: Verizon. T-Mobile's converge is vastly inferior, and for where I live, it isn't worth it (since T-Mobile is non-existent in this market outside of major cities).

Take a very close look at where you live, and where you travel on the coverage maps.

If you have Verizon and are on Unlimited data via 3G... for the love of God do not switch. lol Stay Grandfathered in and buy a 4G LTE phone outright (not via a plan) and your Unlimited data should carry up to 4G LTE.

Also remember, T-Mobile doesn't have IRL 4G service (LTE) and probably never will. It sounds like a great deal now, but switching might bite you in the ass, especially if your sitting on a Verizon Unlimited data plan. T-Mobile (and AT&T for that matter) run something I like to refer to as "the FAKE-G." Its HSPA+ or what the rest of the non-United States world calls 3.5G service. While AT&T is installing true 4G LTE towers, T-Mobile is simply trying to sell itself off instead of upgrading its network to compete.

Remember, the only real 4G is LTE.

If your on a metered Verizon data plan, it might be worth considering the switch (and shouldn't really change anything if you do). If you got Unlimited data via Verizon, don't even consider it. Wait for a 4G Windows Phone on Verizon and grab that when it hits at full price (even if it cost a pretty penny) and enjoy unlimited true 4G LTE data.

Read this for more information on keeping a Verizon Unlimited data plan with 4G. The only thing is, it doesn't account for the recently announced "truly Unlimited" T-Mobile plans, where they won't throttle your connection after 2GBs for some extra money a month that was just announced.

I'm not trying to sound like some kinda Verizon fanboy, but I want you to know some facts before thinking about switching.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BonesHopkins:
I've been using my S3 with LTE turned off by creating a new APN and setting it to wap.cingular.com. It's been working fine up until this morning when a strange thing started happening. I am able to make and receive phone calls just fine but I have no data connectivity at all. Email won't sync and gives me an error "network unavailable", no Pandora, no youtube, nothing that requires data.

When I switch the APN back to the default one, I get data again, but when I go back to the wap.cingular.com one, no data.

I tried shutting off the phone and pulling the battery for 30 seconds, I tried deleting and recreating the APN, and still nothing.

I've been using that APN because it gives me longer battery life so I'd like to keep using it if possible.

Any ideas on what might be going on? BTW, I'm in the Miami, FL area in case that matter.

At&t is killing edge in not so distant future LTE is the future. Maybe they killd old towers where you live?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] BonesHopkins:
Yeah but using the wap.cingular APN puts the phone in 3G mode, not edge. And if they killed the old towers that use that APN, why would I still get phone signal?

I'm at a loss. :confused:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] GuestK00450:
I have exactly the same issue. Every 10 minutes with that APN I lose signal for about 30 seconds. Very annoying.

hrmm...and mine only started today. Before today I'm pretty sure it was working fine. I haven't noticed if I'm losing signal every 10 minutes though. I just know that I have no data whatsoever 100% of the time when using that APN.

roaming charges

I did this also, created APN for wap.cingular. If you go to settings->about device->status, you can see that you are on HSPA.

Does anybody know if AT&T charges roaming for this? I hope not. Since the plan is 4G LTE data plan, any other network (even their own HSPA) might be roaming?

Any recommendations? I recently had a Logitech Dual Action controller that worked great (tested with DEAD TRIGGER and Shadowgun), but I broke it when I was trying to do something (was trying a plastic dye to make the top half of the controller black instead of blue, and warped it)

I saw a couple of cheap knock-off PS3 controllers on Ebay that lacked pressure buttons, sixaxis, and etc, but I'm wondering if these would work fine with the Sixaxis controller application I've been hearing about?
[Nexus 7 Accessories] Ryands991:
Only official Sony controllers are supported. Any other controller may have problems, or not work.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] espionage724:
The "may" part is what has me curious. I'll probably have to rely on someone who actually has one of these non-official PS3 controllers, but if buttons and analog sticks works over bluetooth, then that's all I'll need.

Yea, it's basically like saying "Device is not officially supported" which means if you have a problem don't bother telling me.

[Nexus 7 Accessories] khaytsus:
Most crappy knock-off PS3 controllers are "2.4ghz wireless", NOT Bluetooth. Read the fine print. They require a little dongle plugged into the USB port on the PS3.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] firecaulk:
Don't use anything but o.e.m. Sony you will be glad you did.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] player911:
Yea I went round and around with various controllers. Most bluetooth controllers are pure crap for the money. The buttons and Dpads are nasty feeling and are cheaply made. They chew through batteries and/or won't keep a charge.

Stick with the name brands like the WiiMote or a PS3 SixAxis.

Honestly the PS3 controller is fantastic. It works by default with a OTG Cable but requires root/SixAxis App to play. Some custom roms can pair with the controller without the SixAxis app but I haven't seen any for the N7 yet. So while it currently requires a few extra steps, the control and responsiveness of the PS3 controller is superb. The SixAxis App also lets you map buttons to areas of the screen where you would normally touch. This makes the PS3 controller much more useful for games that don't natively allow button mapping. These are profiles, which you can download for specific games.

Any other controller will be a waste of money. You can pick up a PS3 controller for like $30. I bought a white one from GameStop for like $29.99 a few months ago brand new in the original packaging.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] mi7chy:
I'm thinking about buying a Sony PS3 Dual Shock 3 bluetooth controller because using the screen is horrible but it seems overpriced for what it is especially if you were to look at the simplicity of the internals. Even with the controller combo pack with Resistance dual pack games on sale for $45 at Kmart it's still hard to pull the trigger. ~$25 is about what it's worth.
[Nexus 7 Accessories] espionage724:
Ah, didn't think they were this cheap. I'll probably call up my local Gamestop tomorrow and see if they have any in stock. I asked my friend a few days ago how much a PS3 controller went for and he said $50... which was a bit more then I wanted to spend on a controller :/

[Nexus 7 Accessories] mi7chy:
Broke down and bought the PS3 wireless controller bundle with two games but since it was opened but new Kmart discounted it from $45 to $40. Will be selling the two bundled games to recoup the cost since I don't own a PS3. Wanted to avoid Amazon/online purchase since I read a lot of comments regarding counterfeits. Charging it right now off of my PC. Btw, it requires a Mini USB cable which is not included but fortunately I had a spare one from Blackberry.

Where are official PS3 controllers for $30? They are $55 new, $45 used at gamestop.
