Android is good and all, but I'd like to play with WP7 on my phone, if it's possible. Are there any developers working on it?
Not that I know of. It would be a very difficult task with a completely new code base and matching the hardware drivers with it. But maybe there are brave souls attempting it. Unfortunately our device is not a popular one like htc hd2, which has all sorts of operating systems ported. So my guess is we will not see it.

No way it will be the biggest headache...the developers will comm suicide....

I'm no dev or anything (at least not for our devices), but probably not. Could be wrong though.
Nope, the tp2 and hd2 are 2 different hardware so they got different things needed
Is it possible to boot up WM with my Verizon device?
I once had an iPhone on AT&T and I found a great dev who was actually rebuilding the iPhone as a Windows OS.
I love the feel of the Windows OS. Always have, always will.
My question: Does the Gen.Y swing both ways? Or is there a boot loader out there that works the same?

Google showed lots of results.... He's one of the many XDA links:
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/rundroid-dual-boot-to-android-sd-or-windows-mobile-6/
That's just for the Windows phone.
I'm looking for boot loader that loads WM7 ON an Android device such as my dinc.
Is there such a thing?

No it is not possible. Sorry.
it's not possible bc of a licensing issue. Android is open source so you can run it on anything as long as you put the time into development. Windows is only licensed to run on WM phones but WM phones can run Android bc Android is open source.
Is it possible to get any other OS besides android running on an android phone?
I believe its can be happend
Its hard work to compile and nake it run good....
Again, I think haha

There was a project to port WP7, but I think it died
If I remember right, you can run Ubuntu through a virtual machine or something of the sort. Windows Phone 7 project died because of trolling and lack of support and was earlier stunted by the fact that there were only GSM phones at first.

Hey guys,
I was looking over at Windows Phone 7 the other day and I noticed that the UI looks really cool! I don't want to buy a windows phone, but I also found out that the HTC HD2 can dual boot windows mobile and android at the same time. THe HD2 also has a snapdragon, so would it possible to port it over to the Inspire/DHD? Im not sure if this is possible, but I wish i could get the UI, cuz it looks really cool! Thanks!
I asked the same question a while back. Basically, WP7 is a closed source UI. Porting it to DHD or any other phone for that matter would be a breach of tos blah blah blah... Just search and you'll find all about it.

Hmm ok thanks for the reply. Would it be possible to make a ROM that looks like it? Not necessarily a port?

Nope, unless you want your ass sued by windows...
If you know how to pull it off I guess you could make one just for your self but other then that nothing...

You're right. Ubuntu Touch's based on CM10.1, which isn't even stable. You can imagine that Ubuntu Touch would/will be even worse as far as performance, battery life and that stuff is concerned. But not only that... Don't forget that the WFS is a 2 year-old phone with 3,5 year-old hardware. Even if you managed to port it successfully, it would just be a... "nice-to-have", but not a daily driver.
we can't port or build ubuntu touch because we don't have sufficient NAND for it.
Guys lets not be too hostile towards poor Mahesh. He wanted to create a thread that would help us. No need to start offending his idea. I suggest that some of you apologize.
Really sorry to disappoint him,unless Ubuntu touch has the ability to boot like android on sd card,I think it would be able to work! I am not sure if Ubuntu touch will support that.
