[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] masr:
I have written a message to HTC Taiwan Support (Tech) (There is support in different countries, but HTC is build in Taiwan, so they can give us more information about the drivers):

Hi!

Many free programmers are programming a free android-version for the HTC-Touch HD:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...lackstoneLinux

Is it possible if we get all the hardware-documentation about this phone, so that we can write the linux-drivers for that phone?

If you cannot give me information about this, could you please tell me the eMail-Address, where I can ask this question?

Many greetings!

masr

Dear masr, Thank you for contacting HTC International. With regards to your query, we regret to inform that Android system is yet to launch in Taiwan market. Otherwise, HTC product is not able to be compatible with windows or linux as the operating system is difference from windows mobile. There’s no other way to change HD system to Android system. Sorry for causing you any inconvenience. Thank you for your continuous support of our products and services. Should you require further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

We have already a working android-version for the HTC Touch-HD:

Booting works, the graphical interface works, the touchscreen works, calling works without audio, sms sending/receiving works, access to sd/internal storage works, hardware-buttons work, hardware volume-buttons work.

What does not work is:

Audio, MMS, GPRS/EDGE/3G/HSUPA, WIFI, Bluetooth, Main/Second Camera, Hardware On/Off button, GPS, Stylus detection, USB-connection

But we are working on it. It would be nice if you support us with information about the hardware, so that we can complete our android-version very soon. It is much work to find everything out ourselves.

Maybe you can send us the source-code of the drivers for windows, so that we can port them to our linux-version?

Greetings, masr
