For some reason the sd card only worked in hboot so I tried flashing the stock .img and that still didn't fix the problem.
[myTouch 3G Slide General] twiztidnutzzzzz:
Just a suggestion. have you tried reformatting your sdcard? Not possitive it would work but its worth a shot. Strange things can happen. and well it happened to me back in the day with the g1.

first of all, I didn't know where to put this, maybe it should have gone in the windows mobile forums?

I'm generally a dedicated android user, and now it's time for me to get a new phone.

I'm on at&t so my first choice was the captivate, otherwise I might go for an unlocked tmobile phone.

but then I realized that people have been getting their winmo phones to boot android.

it's be really cool to have both os, even on my pc I dualboot Windows7 and Ubuntu

do any of them do this well?

If I were to get a winmo phone based on it's ability to boot android which one would you suggest? or should I stick to a all-android handset?

note: the phone has to be GSM
[General Topics] zarathustrax:
A Winmo phone is not going to run android as well as a native android phone. Android ports always have issues... battery life isn't as good, certain features or hardware don't work, etc. If you're gonna use android full-time, i'd stick with an android phone. If you really want to run both on the same device then the HD2 is your best bet. It runs android very well for a non-android phone. But if you're going to stay on AT&T you will want to get the expensive austrailian 9193 HD2 if you want to have 3g. That will set you back $800. You can get the T-Mobile US version and unlock it, but you won't get 3g speeds on at&t.
[General Topics] redpoint73:
I wouldn't bother getting a new Windows Mobile phone at the moment, as much as I have been a loyal WM user. WM6 is outdated, and a lame duck with Windows Phone 7 coming in October, with support from software developers dropping. If you are really curious about WM, you might wait until October and see if MS's big promises pay off, and if they can really compete with Apple and Android.

If I had to get a new phone right now, I'd get an Android. As already mentioned, a phone running an Android port is never going to work as well as a phone which runs Android natively. Its a good way to experience Android, and get some new life out of your phone, if you already own a WM device (and the hard work of the developers is greatly appreciated). But I wouldn't consider it a true "dual boot" situation.
[General Topics] swee08315:
Thanks for the info, I guess I'll probably get a stock android.

Anyone got a guide on flashing kernels? Mine already has fresh evo with htc evo stock kernel. I want to flash either cm6-snap or netarchy-toast mod, but yet to find a guide on how to do it.

can anyone point me in the right direction. thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dglowe343:
Just place on your SD card and flash from recovery. No need to wipe, but you should always do a nand backup. I'm not sure if the latest snap kernels are compatible with froyo sense roms though. I'd stick with netarchy or king kernels.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Redder1:
Hi, Just purchased the hd2 T Mobile from USA. Which carriers can I use in Canada to activate this Phone? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
any of them(well, except any cdma only ones) but you will need an unlock code from online or from t mobile, and you won't get 3g
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Redder1:
Thanks for the help samsamuel. I took it to one carrier and they told me it wouldn't work. The phone is unlocked.Why wouldn't I get the 3G.I want the plan that gives me internet mobile browsing. PS it was fido I took it to.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
because fido uses 1900 for 3g, from what i've read, and the tmous uses 1700/2100 for 3g., and i think rogers uses 850/1900 and maybe 1900/2100 (just skimming google for this infofact is, though, that without the 1700 aws band,, no high speed data.

you will be able to get gprs and edge for browsing, but no 3g/hsdpa.

as to them saying it won't work, they're probably either making it up or meaning 3g

most canadian users fork out the extra for the telstra model if they want 3g.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Redder1:
Thanks. I guess this phone is useless to me, as I wanted to be able to access the internet without using the wifi.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
you can, but only with gprs / edge speeds.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] orijonl:
I had been considering buying an HD2 and trying to unlock it for use with an AT&T sim card for my current account. I knew that their networks were compatible, but I didn't realize that hsdpa was on different frequencies. I googled around a bit and it looks like AT&T uses 1900 mhz and Tmo uses 1700/2100. I can't verify if this info is correct ,but this could sure put a dent in my plans. Does anyone know for sure if an HD2 can be used on AT&T's 3g network?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samsamuel:
there are several threads about how you can't. go read in the tmous specific section. plenty of confirmation that it doesn't.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cadu85:
3G Frequencies

Hi there!

I was wondering if there is a way to change those settings?? I have a T-Mo HD2, and maybe there is a way to make the phone work with the 3G technology in other frequencies besides the 1700 and 2100 MHz (I live in latin america, so it would have to use the 850Mhz frequency) Anyone please help me with this issue.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Airborne Aircrew:
As one who unlocked a TMoUS HD2 to AT&T I can assure you that you will not get 3G anywhere in the US or Canada that I can find. On a bright note, it's a phone... With everyone else using 3G networks I find the Edge network to be utterly "unclogged" and find the speeds to be just fine for everything including streaming video. :D

PS: The phone was free but without a SIM card and I was an AT&T user - not to mention T-Mobile's network leaves a lot to be desired..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] odrean:
There is 3g service in Canada if you happen to be in an area where Wind Mobile is available. search Wind mobile coverage area.

We (family)have several cell phones I use the HD 2 on Edge and it doesn't bother me that its a little slower, actually when I did a quick check with my daughter on her 3g I hardly could tell the difference. I' m sure some will point out where I'm wrong. But I'm satisfied with edge because I enjoy the HD2.

Wind Mobile uses 1700/2100.

Okay so I was just looking at wallpapers on devianart because as much as I love my live wallpapers, sometimes I just want something easy on the eyes. So my question is how hard would it be to have a standard wallpaper on your homescreen but also be able to place a picture frame widget with a live wallpaper running inside it? Sounds pretty awesome in my head to be able to run a live wallpaper in a pic frame widget while having a regular old pic as your wallpaper.(black wall with a pic widget with the seed of life running inside) Anyways didnt know if this was possible for a dev to make adjustments to that widget for this to be allowed. Thanks for looking:D
[Windows Phone 7 General] theomni:
I made this poll last time, but this was around when the news of WP7 was just getting out. I'm sure that from then and now, we've learned a lot more about the OS and MS has released a lot more info regarding the OS. So with that being said, I was just curious to see if there were any change of hearts.

Vote on!
[Windows Phone 7 General] paperclips:
I plan on buying a windows phone whenever some nice looking hardware comes to Verizon. I might have to wait a while since ill have to buy one at full price because my upgrade isn't until 2012.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Dratini:
Never will I ever choose anything besides Windows 7 or their webcam for my products.

Ad notifications? What kind of nonsense is this?

And here is the real nail in the coffin:

"At launch, Windows Phone 7 will not have the ability to cut, copy, and paste. It will recognize telephone numbers and addresses, but Microsoft says the majority of users don't need 'cut, copy, and paste'."

With that attitude, do I trust this company for phones? No. The iPhone 2G had more features than this!

I hope they die in the mobile arena. Their efforts have been haphazard and poor. If it does turn out to be good (doubtful since I've used Windows Mobile since the Blackjack) I don't see anything it offers that Android or iPhone doesn't already do, and better.

Fun phones are the iPhone and Android systems. They're also very good for work as well.

Blackberry handles business as usual.

And Microsoft, your best move was investing in Apple.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Sandbunny:
Sounds like a guy who is been around for a long time !!?. I respect your opinion but it is windows mobile what made this forum what it is today. So let it die?

It depends what kind of user you are, I have always been a fan of windows because its customizable, what is for me an added value. Now with the coming of mobile7, I dont know, but I´m sure we can support and make the OS better around here.

Iphone is in my opinion a hyped phone (especially the iphone4) and clearly is not as good as the previous versions because of its hardware malfunction.

Respecting Andriod, I like the phones and they are great but still I´m staying old fashioned and try and stick to WinMo.

As you can notice I will buy a phone with the new OS because I´m just curious and its flawless integrated with windows platforms in private and corporate perspective. What i believe is the advantage of Microsoft software.
[Windows Phone 7 General] wm-ralf:
I will buy a WP7 device in Germany as soon a device similar to the HD2 is released. For me are a display around 4 inch, arround 448 MB RAM, at least 16GB flash memory important. An amoled display is prefered.

Why WP7? As a developer I have with Silverlight much more fun and I have no fun to flash my device regularry to get the rom to a quality level that should be out of box. Is's a shame but big thanks to this board for making the good HD2 roms :-)
[Windows Phone 7 General] lordcanti86:
Just waiting on what T-Mobile USA will bring us
[Windows Phone 7 General] OndraSter:
Sure it did.;)

Main difference between WP7 and other mobile OSes, that it is being complex. iOS has just core stuff - kernel, some core APIs and few built-in apps like mail or safari. Android adds some wannabe support for integrating facebook, today widgets. WP7 comes as latest one with around 2 year development as of now, including full facebook integration at launch, combining and integrating your contacts into facebook. This was just an example, that WP7 is way more complex system, than any other mobile OS we have now. It allows integration into hubs, ... while all you can do on iOS is just add your icon on app launcher. No integration into core apps.

Also the biggest fun will begin shortly. Possibility to develop for PC-Xbox360-WP7 with one source code (and just optimizing user input for mouse, joystick or touchscreen) is f...in promising. And Silverlight, C# and XNA are awesome to play and create with, compared to native coding.

I will be getting WP7 as soon as I get the opportunity. Love the UI (I'd just say more colors into icons in the applist). Love the possibilities. Love MS!
[Windows Phone 7 General] theomni:
what?!!

xbox-wp7-pc game integration is a possibility? but how is a phone going to be as capable as the three cores plus graphics core of a 360?
[Windows Phone 7 General] IM0001:
As soon as Sprint gets a killer 4G enabled one. Bamn! I'm there. :D

Gota get on the leading edge again and start promoting the thing to my friends/family/co-workers/etc.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Reihnold:
First of all, WP7 has a lower target resolution than XBox and PCs. You also can use a lower resolution than the native resolution of WP7 and the phone will resize the image "for free" using a dedicated chip. To target the different input formats, you have to tweak the code and use conditional compilation (like #If Xbox; #If WP7; #If Windows). If you want to utilize the full potential of each platform, there may be many conditional compilation instructions, but it is possible. Depending on the architecture, the main game logic can remain the same and does not need (many) changes.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Tom Servo:
Ima stick with it. WP7 is nice.
[Windows Phone 7 General] OndraSter:
Yep, just as Reihnold described it.

The main logic and core is the same, you just optimalize it for different input and ofc slower HW (but with coming Hummingbird etc we will see reaching Xbox on WVGA screen in few years I bet). You disable some cool effects etc, but you do that with those #If Xbox360 fxRainbow.Enable = true; #Endif etc, so nothing huge. Compared to Linux-Android it is something quite easy. Mostly because of awesome IDE.
[Windows Phone 7 General] efjay:

I'd be more interested to know what percentage of people would switch to wp7 in an iphone and/or android forum really. That to me is a better indicator of how well wp7 will do at launch.

I eventually want to switch, but ill do it further down the line when the OS matures.

[Windows Phone 7 General] kdj67f:
I am waiting to actually see how well the office, RDP and other apps integrate into windows before I pull the trigger on one. I really could care less about facebook integration or twitter or any social networking. Sure I use facebook, but I want to keep my contacts seperate from my social networking. I want a business device first. Not to say I won't try one out, but I intend on keeping my Tilt2 around unless they release a WM6.5 handset with a keyboard and a faster processor and more RAM! :D like that will happen...

And if it comes to switching platforms, android is next in line. No apple products ever in my house.

[Windows Phone 7 General] JC_Agga:
I am so ready to purchase one of Windows Phone 7 phones! Why? please... for those ppl who say WP7 is not as great as their beloved WM 6 series, you gotta let your ego go. And yes, i have HD2. So this is a customer with experiences with hacking my device and use cooked ROMs. And yes i hate using cooked ROMs. Althogh i use cooked ROMs that looks like stock version atm. But i am planning to purchase it in this holiday or wait for htc to announce HD3 the beast! I really want my phone to have 1.5ghz or something downgraded clocked duo cpu.
[Windows Phone 7 General] JC_Agga:
Agreed, i hope HDxxx series will be only exclusive with Tmobile. I have HD2 and it is their flagship model. Hope so with HD3 as welll.
[Windows Phone 7 General] JC_Agga:
If i remember reading the articles correctly, wp7 will support Dx9 game engine, which is the minimum engine spec in the game industries, either on PC or Consoles. So wp7 should not have problems running xbox games.
[Windows Phone 7 General] DMAND:
I'm guessing it will mainly be XLBA games like Rocket Riot etc until phone GPU tech catches up, not that I'm moaning :p
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
Exactly, not a XBOX game.

Mainly extensions, and XBL games.
[Windows Phone 7 General] blaiz123:
That will definitely change with WP8, because if Microsoft don't jump at the opportunity of incorporating XBOX games, they will lose the factor that distinguishes them from the competition.
[Windows Phone 7 General] theomni:
So far, WP7 seems pretty nice. But I have a feeling that microsoft is gonna do something to annoy the crap out of its users...somehow.

Even then, I'm still willing to go with WP7.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vangrieg:
I will be getting a WP7 device some time later. Not now because of incredibly poor language support (I can't recall a single product released recently that would be as bad).

As my HD2 seems to be dying due to a hardware problem, I'll probably get an iPhone for the time being. Sick and tired of depending on OEM software really, and that's what I'd have to live with in the Android world.
[Windows Phone 7 General] jaidedfocus:
Only if I can port it to my T-MoUS HD2. I knew I should have waited but I decided to be impatient and now a newer OS will be coming out. Oh well...Otherwise I'll be switching teams to Android.
[Windows Phone 7 General] vetvito:
BS, get a Nexus One, or get any other phone and put a AOSP rom on it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Dratini:
There isn't a customizable feature that isn't present in Android as far as I can tell. It does work well with Windows systems, but others don't do badly in this area either.

Everything has its humble beginnings, Boss Hugo used to design Nazi outfits and whatnot, but I don't think that Windows 7 phone will be anything better than what is currently out. Look at what happened with Kin. It died so quickly, but I'm just opinionated about how bad my experience with Windows mobile has been.

Even with the custom rom on my phone, I hate it since it was adapted from the PDA architecture, and it shows by the crashes and slow speed.

I don't really expect much from Microsoft at this point besides failures (Even W7 has its problems, for some reason sleep crashes Windows 7, then I found out I had to disable to some features before it was usable again).

I don't see anything that would make the Windows 7 phone special, besides the games it offers, but unless they can overcome Apple's huge marketplace of apps its not going to work out.

All in all, I hope that Microsoft is good, and that their phones are phenomenal, but in reality I don't see it occurring.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gom99:
There are a few things that make wp7 stand out to me (in no particular order):

1) Zune

2) Xbox

3) Office & Sharepoint

4) Mailing Client

5) Upto 6 webpages loading simultaneously

6) Last and certainly not least, It runs silky smooth (I didn't think it would be as smooth as it is)

Marketplaces are important, but the emphasis on 200k+ apps is overrated. You just need a good coverage of apps. Does it matter if there's thousands of Word Processing Applications on the PC? No cause there's only a handful of relevant ones. After a while the number of apps means pretty much nothing. Just as long as the big players decide to jump into wp7 then it'll be fine. Some major studios are actively making apps, some are taking a wait and see approach. But there seems to be enough major studios onboard that we'll see a fairly good launch. I'm not too worried about Apps, MS has some of the best dev tools in the business. If .NET can do anything well it's rapid development of solid applications.

Honestly from everything I've seen about wp7 I don't see how it can fail. I think consumers will like the speed and the uniqueness of the OS. Xbox alone should sell well. Hopefully MS will be able to plug the holes in a timely manner and expand the API. How fast MS can do that is what will dictate how well wp7 does.
