Is it possible to install OS X (iphone operating system) into blackstone??
No but look for iphonetoday or other interface iphone like , everything is on xda search a little.
Since Blackstone & iPhone share the same basic architecture (arm), one could think it's possible. But the architecture isn't all.. just think about the radio! XDA-Devs are able to port ROMs from different devices to others (e.g. rhodium roms on blackstone device..) just because they are all essentially the same: same CPU (MSM72xx), same components and moreover same OS!
Just take a look at the guys here trying to make android run on our beloved blackstone: even though the OS is open source, they're having hard time with things such as MicroSD cards (which btw iPhone is lacking.. one can just wonder what a royal pain that means when even thinking about porting..)
The iPhone OS is protected, even if you jailbreak it, it isn't possible to port the OS. And as you know, a lot of things which are usual for us, aren't for the iPhone user.
No MMS, No FM Radio, No Camera on the front, only 2 MP Camera, no Bluetooth which really works (you can't send files)
I know with the Firmware 3.0 you can do a lot more, but our HTC is still better. (with Android installed I thnk even perfect so let's hope, they will finish reaaaaally soon)
can i burn dvd+rw on blackstone ?
Can I install Symbian on my Touch HD?
(I'm kidding).
After some smart questions, its my time to ask:
Can I install Nokia 3310 O.S. in the Blackstone?

Yes, all you need is some sticky back plastic and some old egg cartons. For the pro version you will need tinsel foil and an old coat hanger.

No it isnt that is the demo phone that was used in the press event. It only has three hardware buttons at the bottom. The HD2 has 5 buttons.
If this is HD2 > leaked roms soon
I hate to break it to you guys but i very much doubt that they would have gone to all the trouble covering up the HD2 if they were going to release it for the HD2, it is almost definitely a prop
this isnt the HD2... watched the scene 10 times, its the prototype
from before!
Clearly not a HD2

Guys... you don't get it... there are two different phones there, one IS the HD2, the other one is that prototype.
Yes, the HD2 is in that video. But no, at no point is it shown running WP7.
Please provide a picture where the hd2 is shown in this video...

@freyberry it is not blue after all
The front is grey, this is not the HTC HD2. And this phone on the picture has corners too round compared to the HD2
Even thou its an HD2 it doesnt mean a ****. So what if Microsoft is using the HD2 for WinPhone 7 commercial? They used the hell out of the Touch Diamond to promote WM 6.5 but we never saw it coming officially.
And porting, how do you guys know its as "easy" as before. Cab files and roms:s?

First Sensible Comment in this thread.
No search button no 7
title says it all
And hypothetically: IF there is a prototype that runs Windows Phone 7 and looks like the HD2, it does not mean that it shares the same internal hardware. HTC might provide a prototype based on the HD2 with different hardware specifications (faster/other CPU, different graphics processor, more internal storage, ...).
However, I think the best explanation is that Microsoft uses the HD2 in a commercial without it running Windows Phone 7.
Not much information at the moment, apart from the standard headphone jack, 5 megapixel camera and the usual three button configuration.

HD2 MAKES THIS LOOK LIKE A MOUSE... i believe hd2 will get upgrade
From what I see is that LG already has the Software..
and the HD2 looks 1000% times better!!!
The front reminds me of the enV Touch, but it's pretty nice overall. The keyboard is meh, not quite as nice as the TP2's, seems decent.
Nothing amazing design-wise, but we are still questionable with these specs.
What is that screen size though???
Unless my eyes are completely deceiving me, it really doesn't seem that big: 3.2", 3.4" maybe??
I don't recall a physical size minimum, and it is really not necessary.
Yes, the HD2 looks nicer, but it is a different style phone.
Remember we still have hardware choices with WinMo.

Didn't HTC say it was going to get the upgrade?
I love looking at all the new cell phones. I haven't liked LG because the quality hasn't been good in the past. HTC is my favorite and before them, HP.
I don't think I'd ever buy an LG product..it'll have to be HTC or nothing, hopefully I can just upgrade my TP2 (I know, I know, it may be too slow..but we'll see!) I'm surprised this has a keyboard..that is a must have for me and everyone I talk to says they are "out"..guess not!

Some grunt in their Russia tech support dept "announced" that a while back. HTC head office immediately issued a statement saying this was incorrect.
very simple phone (old styled)
He looks like as LG Monaco but the buttons are new(search,windows flag,back) maybe it is Monaco but created for wp7s?
actually i like the style and especially the keyboatd layout. curious about how the next htc wp7s phone will look like.
I'll be waiting on the Touch Pro3 or whatever they decide to call the next landscape slider.
and where can we download this leaked rom LOL .

Its actually interesting you say that, Windows Phone 7 Series may not be possible on the HD2 because of the actual button configuration.
Guys/Gals, please see post #28 via this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=637919&page=3
Let me know your thougts/opinions.
Thank you.
I don't like this phone too. It's typical LG-phone and there is nothing new in the phone.
It's really ugly. Can't wait for the first HTC WP7 phone (with a qwerty)
what is with WP7s and the words coming off the screen???? they are trying to be trend setters but it just looks tacky and unfinished!
engadget dot com/2010/03/16/windows-phone-7-series-device-from-samsung-is-just-a-hacked-i891/
What does this mean for chances of W7S on the HD2? I'm a complete noob here. Please don't bash me too bad if this is a dumb question. It seems the i891 meets even fewer of the WP7 specifications than the HD2!!!
Sorry, cant post links
Now that's creepy. Microsoft better not be playing a bunch of people. If Windows can run on lower-grade devices, it better be released for them too.
That may be true- but I think its going to be optimised over its life before its released so it will be a different device.
WM7 is more about standards, and things have to have lots of stuff to be allowed to use it- which makes sence.
Is it possible that Microsoft are shunning HTC because they've focused more on Android than Win Mo in the past year?
i think its the same body as the i8910 HD but they might have updated the internals. i.e. processor, RAM, ROM ..

OR maybe it's HTC wanting to provide phones for the business end of the consumer spectrum and thus staying far away from WP7 and instead going with android.
The device in question is a prototype that will NOT go on sale; I wouldn't draw too many conclusions from this.

A prototype using existing hardware for an OS that should not run without a magical "video scaler"...good going M$. What a nose dive. It's all about pushing over priced phones now. Where did the pda concept go? You killed it.
I guess my point is, if it can run on this phone, why not the HD2?
The phone is hacked, the screen size is obviously different.
the fact that they look the same doesnt mean that they are the same
first of all, the bottom part of the phone shown at mix is longer
second, the distance between "samsung" label and screen is obviously bigger
they just put the hardware in a shell just to have something to demonstrate.
its like taking your hard drive and sticking it into a case to make it portable

Because they can make more money with new HD2 + new hardware buttons + 7 Series OS (this world has bad sides I know)
I accepted that the HD2 will not get 7 Series, because there really are a few good reasons. The HD2 does not meat at least 3 to 4 requirements.
BUT, then I see this...
Anyway, I am moving to Android in April/May.

The HD2 has no search button, no hardware camera button, no dedicated power button, half a gigabyte of flash memory when the minimum requirement is 8GB, and has an SD card reader which is banned on WP7S devices. In addition there is a significant question-mark over whether the touch-screen is capable of registering the necessary four independent points of contact, and some doubt as to whether it has the necessary non-GPU-based hardware image scaler.

That would be hilarious, except didn't Apple finally give in on copy/paste? And rumor has it, multitasking might be on the way in.
I think the UI would look more at home on a sidekick given what's actually underneath. MS isn't in the smartphone business anymore.

Maybe the UI is better but it lacks all the apps so no advantage over iPhone, shich is a piece of crap and so is WP7S.

The only downside is that canonical has said that they're looking to work with OEM's on this project, and don't have any immediate plans to release to the public.
I'm really curious what hardware they're using to make this magic happen. They show a phone docked, but how is it connected via mouse/keyboard/monitor? MHL with bluetooth peripherals? USB OTG and MHL combo on the back of the dock? I've been waiting for something like this, lucky me that ubuntu is the one that's making it happen.
would be sweet unless they some how integrate unity
"That's absolutely amazing"
Like that they planning on keep all supported phones updated to the newest Ubuntu release.
I know it's not quite the same, but there is a way already to have ubuntu on our phones.

A similar dual os via docking comes with motorola phones. Many developers have already improved on the motorola mini-buntu.
This may take it to an even better level

correct, but the current incarnations are actual installations, and they don't Sync immediately live between the two OS
the ones we got running right now are either virtualized version of Ubuntu in our phone, or they actually replace Android, and it requires much tweaking for it to do what currently is cooking at Ubuntu Dev
Does anyone have a leak of that beta development of Ubuntu for Android?
i want to try to make it work on our phones
Also how does one even sign up as a Dev on Ubuntu to get access to the repositories for Ubuntu Android?
This is probably not going to be easily backported to other devices. Like Android itself, it needs native drivers that homebrewers aren't really going to be able to code, so don't expect to see this running on our phones, at least not well enough to be more than a novelty.
It's cool tech, though, and especially on the new generation of phones with Krait or Core A15 this is going to be a real potential desktop replacement for a lot of people who only do light computing. I think this is ultimately where computing is going to go for most people, although it might be a few years before the technology is quite good enough.
