Your observational skills are astounding. Was it the "iOS" in the title that gave that away?
It has absolutely everything to do with these WP boards though.

It could have just as rightly been posted in any OS board.

So then why on earth post this in the Windows Phone boards? I am convinced more and more that some have the goal of destroying the WP section.
Hopefully a mod fires an RPG at this thread.

What a completely stupid idea for a thread in the WP forum.

XDA-Developers Needs A Motto

Hello fellow XDA users,
Do you think XDA developers needs a motto (slogan, quote, etc.)?
Leave your ideas here on this thread!
I go first! "Feel the Revelution"
xda-developers
"answering the same questions since early 2000"
or
"bricking noobs' phones since 2005"
or
"where you can never be happy with your device"
If it wasn't already a TV Show, I'd go for "Ready, Steady, Cook!"
How about a bricked phones counter instead of a slogan at the top of the page?

[Req]Windows Phone 7

I dont know if this is the appropriate forum but i think it would be cool if we could get windows phone 7 running on our EVOs, the HD2 recently got it and its similar in hardware so i dont see why it wouldnt be possible
+1 That would be sweet!
Well first wrong forum. Second yeah, it would be cool but if you look at the rom for the hd2 there are a lot of tiles still not working. Also the hd2 is GSM and there are GSM wp7 phone out. Without a wp7 phone on cdma it is hard as getting the radios to work is difficult. At least hat was the impression I had.

That don't mean nothing. The acer liquid is only gsm and there is a port of that for the EVO.

It's still not a release though. As soon as some work is (if ever) started on it, this would be the correct section.
You're in the right forum, don't worry
Does anyone else thing that the WP7 look is incredibly ugly, or is it just me? haha
It would be quite wonderful to port WP7 to a phone like the EVO. But I believe it will be a daunting task as the HD2 has it easy(ish) they have windows mobile already installed on the device. If there is a similar device with the same hardware as the EVO running WP7 then it might be easier.
Drivers are the hardest to get working, the software could problably be made to work relatively easy. But without drivers to communicate with the cpu, storage, display, and etc there would not be much to see at all even if the software was able to run.
Plus and from my understanding that WP7 is pretty locked down at the moment and not all features would be accessible. Though that is a thought without any research into the subject.

I agree 100%. It was designed for tweenagers to be able to do all their social networking. Its kin 2.0 and they are even considering adding a new 'kin' studio. Personally, I don't recommend trying to port it over to an android device as Microsoft might not take too kindly to the licensing issue.

HTC HD7 is a pretty much an HD2 with WP7 if I'm not mistaken...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=818607
The hd2 is pretty much a evo just GSM.
flame and troll and flame and troll and bash someone for bringing up a great idea now back to flame and troll and flame and troll.
To the OP love the idea hope to see it come to light, ill definitely try it if someone can do it.
devs should not waste time with other OS's. reason being is that too much work is needed just to get everything working, and thats the job of the manufacturer. i rather they spend it adding/improving features to the solid foundation we have already, android.
plus android is free, windows is not and nor htc or you paid for windows on the evo so even if they had a fully working port you'd somehow have to get a license from MS and since they only sell oem license to manufacturer dont know how you could even legally get one. just my 2 cents
This would be REALLY sweet, but i dont see it working out until a CDMA WP7 is released, porting from GSM is 1000x harder to get working real well E.X. - Desire HD/Acer liquid ports.
I was in the microsoft store at my mall, they said a sprint CMDA WP7 is due this year. I'd be willing to bet itll be ported within a week after its released.

Windows Mobile 7 on Evo???

any talks of a port?
No. Its illegal
Sent from my (insert daily ROM name here) Evo 4g
I would love to see WP7 ported over to the EVO just to say "Hey is possible" but I don't think I would waste such a powerful device like the EVO on such a crappy OS. I mean don't get me wrong, there are some things that are cool about WP7 but is not enough for anyone to ditch Android and use WP7 as their primary OS. If you want to use WP7 then either buy a WP7 phone or go and buy an HD2. I have an HD2 as well as my EVO and I can tell you that the HD2 is great for the fact that it runs so many OS but with that being said, is not even close to the performance of the EVO.

DUDE, don't give people the whole is illegal thing. If that's illegal then I'm pretty sure that if you wanted to start breaking things down as far as what is legal and what's not....alot of what's done on here would be illegal. Things like flashing phones to different carriers and stuff like that.
The HTC HD2 can be flashed to WP7 and Android.....is that illegal? If so, then you better inform XDA that they need to shut their doors because they have a bunch of illegal activity going on within their site.......I hate people like you...I really do!

Windows 7 ...a step backwards?

Just got my wm7 device... wow, if I wanted an I-phone, or an android, I would have bought one... Yes I have had both and neither one was HALF the phone that my last windows 6.5 was!!!!
WM7??? wtf? yeah I know I am considered a noob on here, just because I haven't posted a bunch of bs questions. I am on here reading... and searching... and doing... but unless I post I cant ask questions in the development forum.
So here it is, Not flamin.. just opinion:
Microsoft... totally missed the mark! This phone has infinitely more ability out of the box than ANY Android or I-phone ever released! PERIOD! and then what do they do? cover all that ability with a "app" overlay and limit EVERYTHING.... So here we go again. Hack time...
I wanted a windows device that I can use... customize any way I want, change to meet my needs, expand into something so much more than a pretty "OH looky here!"
Just my thoughts.
... now I will go search for the infamous "Sticky on How to Hack wm7"
That's how it is. In your case better take Android and forget those problems.
Its Windows Phone 7 (WP7).
Do you normally buy things that you've never looked into before?
You are noob, with common noob's senseless complains.
P.S. I know the rule: "Don't feed troll"... But it should be some kind of policy here on XDA to prevent posts like OP!
It's a bit of a mixed bag imho. The core OS itself is a huge leap forward over WM6.x and I greatly prefer it to iOS and Android as well. The fact that it's so locked down is a bit of a pain, I'd love the old WM style customisability/hackability back, and maybe we'll get it at some point, but tbh I find myself not really missing it as much as expected. So far it does everything I need.

Both of these.
Obvious troll is obvious.
"Windows 7" is a completely different product, and "Windows Mobile 7" does not exist.
Are posts like this really still taking place? I don't understand exactly what you need to "hack" about the UI... I mean, if you want a phone that crashes, is unstable, a headache to use, and useless 90% of the time, then you should probably go back to your WM device... The reason we used to mod the hell out of our older devices was not necessarily because we WANTED to, it was because we HAD to... Why did we all go to the newest versions of Sense? Because nobody was developing apps for our Windows Mobile to cover most of those features... I have to disrespectfully disagree with this stupid post

Alas, Cataclysm has "died" before in the days of the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4. Atl4ntis disappeared for a year or more then and reappeared magically for the N5 and gained a large number of users. However, if he can't hack the stress, it was hardly fair to build up an even larger keen collection of users on FOUR different devices. I'm bitterly disappointed, but sadly not surprised. At least he gave his reasons on Pushbullet.
This is a sad day...... for me and the rest of Cataclysm users.

Thanks. I think I see his point about fairness, but man, does he have to be so nasty about it? Seems like he didn't really need to insult anyone, except maybe the XDA mods that he felt were unfair to him. But perhaps he feels it's a race thing (who knows, perhaps it is).
Anyway, it's too bad they couldn't solve the problems without going ballistic. Hope it turns out to do something positive.
This is all just sad...

Yes, and there is a fact. His method 'cata-mod' is and was very original. So I am confused too, and do not understand the moderators concerned. Especially because a thread with discussions about the 'why' is also closed.
This is not a simple 'not following the rules question'. Apparently we are dispirited to talk further.
I'm very sorry for Atl4ntis and Cataclysm.
He's been a very kind guy, always keen to answer help and fix bugs,
His ROM has been the best I've ever seen so far: a lot a customization, great features, great stability. A great balance.
I hope he will eventually be back, but he will be always remembered as one of the best guys and modder here!
