hello guys....
i was just wondering..... because the htc desire has a 1 Ghz processor and also enough ram for windows xp to run.... would it b possible to run on this powerful device?
would be pretty cool if it could.....
many thnx for the replies
No
Windows (XP, Vista, 7) only works on Intel x86 (and x64) processor.
Zero chances to run on the Snapdragon
........no
Windows no, but Debian and other arm-cpu compatible os... maybe
I think somebody has managed to get windows 3.11 running on the Nexus

3.11... LoL, Back To The Future...
Maybe via emulators. You can run Windows 9x on winmo devices with an emulator.
Don't know about Windows but I've seen people booting Debian with fastboot on the Nexus One...
would b great if some1 is able to make windows xp to work on the arm processor..... if that happens.... the possibilities r endlesssss

You cannot put Windows Mobile to SE M600i, It is a diffrent OS platform.
hahahahaha
can I load the ROM from other type? like can I load a WM6 from an Atom to a XDA III?
That's about like asking my wife if I can have a sex change...
I really don't know whether to laugh or cry at your ignorance.
sorry for this silly question
I was considering if it's like PC OS that have almost the same core and can be modified before deploy to another station.

It could be possible like using the HTC Wizard rom for a Charmer... This has already been done... Still it's a silly question without having checked the inner hardware, etc.
So yes, this CAN be done... (if the hardware is not too different)
It is not like PC OS at all. I should probably send you to the WiKi but I do have a bit of time to burn so here is the explanation:
First, you can not load Windows Mobile on to devices with other OS. It would be the same as trying to run Windows on a Mac or Mac OS on a PC, the BIOS (or in our case bootloader) wouldn't support it, plus I am fairly sure there is some difference in processor architecture so it can't "understand" the code at all.
Second you can not change ROM between different Windows Mobile devices because unlike desktop PC Windows Mobile comes in an image bundled with drivers and other hardware specific components. Flashing the wrong image will brick the device, and there is no such thing as "generic" WM installation.
To conclude: You can not put WM on anything other that the devices that have official or unofficial update to this OS.
thank you so much guys for guide me a lot.
I knew that different devices might built in different architectures, but some of the devices use same series of cpu. and also did concern about different hardware need respective driver...but not aware of the encryption there might be...
thx for the explanation~

have a look at the facts you can run windows xxxx on a imac and mac mini and you can run mac osx on a pc so it may be possible to run windows mobile on se m600

Well it may very well be possible, but not with the tools available to us or any other average joe.

I wasn't referring to osx on pc as I'm well aware of that. The question is can you direct me to a link where it shows some readily available hardware and software to port WM6 to a sony M600? not that I could do anything with the info, simply for arguments sake.
it becomes boring...Linux can be load on Xbox...just imagination, maybe there will be some way to load a WM rom within sort of hardward series...(like Dopod 828 & 838 & P800 are most the same series for TI cpu etc)...
Settle down, pleas I did not mean to start a debate.
When I was talking about Mac and PC I just wanted to use the older, Motorola processor based architecture as an example. (Forgot Macs use Intel these days).
Any way - Windows Mobile like any OS can be adopted to any platform - in theory, but the radical changes required are beyond the scope of private enthusiasts such as on this site.
Even if processor architecture is the same, you would at the very least have to rewrite all the drivers for the given device, and that is an enormous task.
it would most likely require access to the sourcecode (not something ms let you download being they hate opensoufce) and a team of developers to make new developing to support hardware they might not have any spcs on (not something sonyE hand out at the door)
depending one how much backward enginering would be required
1 man year of developer time
for each enuiqe platform
this is not counting the lawsuits from ms and or sonyE
and the man years of answering questions of people wanting to know if it works on their old nokia 3110
I cannot work out how to enable HSDPA on my commodore 64, could some one tell me if installing WM6 would help with this?
Isn't it possible with the Desire HD's specs to make a Windows 7 port? It's more than capable. But I've heard of issues with drivers but it was still ported to HD2? And before anyone asks why would I make my phone "worse" or whatever, I'd like to give it a go, it looks really nice
Also before anyone asks why don't I buy/why didn't I buy a Windows Phone, I'm 14, my parents wouldn't be too keen on buying me another phone.
EDIT: In the poll it should actually say: "Windows Phone 7 SHOULD be ported to the Desire HD, and you want it to happen."
Id love to see this happen. It's not impossible to achieve, but is very very complex, especially regarding drivers etc. I don't think we will see this any time soon.

How long did it take to port to the HD2?
I'd also love to see it happen. Maybe WP7 is worse than Android, but we can't be sure without us trying it out first. Also take in consideration that WP7 has been just released, maybe it's been out in the US for a longer time. But here in the Netherlands it doesn't even have a Dutch version nor a Market released.
Anyway, it's hard indeed, but not impossible. Especially not considering that the DHD is cracked open to the bone. I'm not expert but that would mean that it is possible in theory that the pro's can make it if they want.
I'm up for trying it, I love the style of WP7. Maybe not everything is as good as Android, but the same can be said for iOS vs Android. Everything has it's charms, WP7 has a great interface in my opinion. Android has a great mod-ability, making it possible for devs to make Android great, but the stock Android ain't nothing special. iOS has a great app-store, which makes it powerful, but other than that iOS has nothing special to offer us in comparisson to Android.
guys its got nothing to do with drivers ffs.. we have a lunux based device with a lunux based bootloader and a linux fs on the nand.. the hd2 has a windows based bootloader and a nand chip with a windows file system.... windows only does fat and ntfs, our nand uses the linux based ext file system...

Couldn't you install a Windows based bootloader then?

you could in theory yes, but what you propose is illegal (windows is closed source) and if all your after is the look and feel of WP7 try designing a theme and then i'm sure you could corrupt some systems files to reduce the stability of android
Hypothetically
I'm just wondering, - hypothetically of course - how would you go about changing the bootader to a windows based bootloader?

I suspect, hypothetically or not, that there would be a lot of work involved in someone producing a windows Bootloader to flash instead of our normal android one, I don't see any devs putting in the work for free to allow installation of a pirated OS, you want WP7 buy a WP7 phone

wait so then how does the HD2 do it? cause it is/was running windows 6.5 and now it has got WP7 (pirated) or android or both dual booting.
Someone have Lenovo Ideapad Yoga 11s Windows RT recovey USB Files, I tried to install ubuntu and I screwed up. otherwise, anyone can create a USB recovery key and send me the links where i can download it ... or links for windows 8 RT if possible
Please, I need help ... Thanks
The yoga 11S is an intel powered device with windows 8 not windows RT.
The yoga 11 is an NVidia powered device with windows RT and cannot run ubuntu.
So which is it?

You'll have better luck asking in the correct forum; your device does not have (and cannot run) Windows RT, so people with the recovery partition for it are unlikely to be found in a Windows RT forum.
Thread closed. I am not sure there is anyplace on xda to ask for help with PC software....maybe somebody will help you if you post in the Computer Hardware thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1765837

Hello!
Im running the final Version of Windows 8.1 on my Surface RT. I tried to jailbreak it but something isn't working. I will attach an image of the failure down below. This error message only appears a couple of miliseconds, because of that the quality is so low.
I would really appreciate if someone could help me!
Thank you!!!

Theres your problem. As has been stated umpteen billion times, the jailbreak works in RT 8.0 only, does not work in 8.1.
thanks
Ok. Many youtubers say that the 1.20 jb works with windows 8.1 too.
Is there a way to downgrade the windows 8.1 version to 8.0?
Will there be in the future a 8.1 jailbreak?

You have to download Windows 8 RT recovery image from Microsoft Surface RT site, and have to flash ur Surface device in order to downgrade the device...
1.2 ver. JB NEVER works on 8.1 RT...
I think there will be no hope for 8.1 JB
Possible Alternative
I found a directory called "C:/Windows/System32/CodeIntegrity" on my Surface RT. Maybe it has something to do with the unsinged exe problems.
Since windows can already run on snapdragon 835,i want to try it out on my mi6.
Is it possible and if so how to do it?

We need to have bios for our devices to boot it directly and since we don't have one, our best choice is to wait for a project on xda (I don't remember the name well but I'm pretty sure you can find easily if you search for it) that ports bios for android devices.
But to be honest even if you can run windows on mi 6 there are 2 bad news for you:
1) The vast majority of windows applications are written for x86 architecture and we have arm architecture, so to run them you should emulate either os or run the app in an emulated sandbox - so no good performance.
2) As I said in 1st one, emulation is a must (if you aren't planning to compile all those apps for arm architecture). Also windows 10's capability of running x86 apps on arm is based on that very emulation method, it runs them on a WoW (Windows on Windows) so there's clearly a hit on performance.
I suggest you to not to expect to have a decent windows system running on your arm device but if you need/want to run more basic windows apps, you can try Limbo PC Emulator. That way you can run some older or stripped down versions of windows with no heavy performance loss. For most of the basic things I find MicroXP project enough but don't expect to be able to run Photoshop on that I hope this answers your question.
I see, thank you ccelik97 for your clear answer.
