Ive been trying different style roms for a while and havent come across a windows based rom. So I was just wondering if there is a windows based rom out?
No windows roms. But I do know there is a Windows based launcher in the market, If all you're looking for is appearance, look it up.

Is it do-able? I know that things like the GNex, and an evo have gotten some of the open source versions of it, so why not us? How hard could it be?

Well, it all comes down to the willingness of a developer if he/she wants to port it or not. If you question the availability of porting webos, then you try porting it then.
Another option would be good, but at this point, why? With ics stable and jb stable around the corner, it really doesnt make sense for a dev to port it. Webos lacks alot compared to android.

The developers always love challenges. They might port it if it is interesting enough. I think the matter is whether we have the good enough developers, who use S2.

I think our developers are good enough to do it its just we don't have a lot of them compared to other phones. The more there are the better the odds are of something like that happening.. We are still better off than other phone models!

We only have few active developers. Some also have left oir community. So, i guess we should enjoy JB instead of dreaming about webOS.

Just for **** and giggles, if you go to the sr forum and flash the aromakang you have an option for sense 4 two and webos. Just a lil FYI. Does not need any rotation fix or anything like that.

I been looking online for a webos launcher or a good theme thats not for cm9. But no luck, also there is a webos theme for gb miui not miuiv4 for some reasons gb miui themes are not compatible with miui v4. sure wish there could be a easy way of converting gb themes work on ics miui rom. Seems like Gb was more popular on themes than ics
I've been doing some looking... it honestly doesn't look so difficult.

This phone runs android and Linux, that is all... possibly open webos should some dev ever feel sufficiently inclined to port it. If you want a windows phone buy a windows phone...
Also can someone link me to the iOS 6 port for this phone! Not seeing it in search and my common sense seems to be malfunctioning
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
If such a ROM ever did come into existence it wouldn't be a true windows rom but rather one based on a windows theme, which quite frankly can already be done on our phones based on themed launchers and particular apps which give it that Windows "feel".
Install EL29, Install Blazer's 4.1 ROM, Download Launcher 7, Run it. There you go
You will probably need FOTAkill.apk or Something to kill ota updates, I did.
I say EL29 because when I ran Launch 7 on ICS, it just didn't work right. And Blazer's kills off the Bloatware, Caulkin's does the same too. You can just run Launcher 7 if you feel so inclined without any of the hoopla.
isnt there a windows 8 launcher now? lol

Today, Canonical announced the Ubuntu Phone OS, which will, in the near future, will be installable on current Android devices, starting with the Galaxy Nexus I believe. Is it just me, or cam anyone else not wait for this?!
For those of you who haven't seen it yet, here's the link: www.ubuntu.com/devices/phone

It looks pretty slick. Options are always better. Would love for our devs to be able to cook some of those features in android. Open source ftw!

Wait I don't fully understand, will it be on new devices or can we get it on devices that we already own?
Man the possibilities with having a real desktop computer in your hands and being able to run desktop applications right off the phone and not the slimmed down apps we download from google play. Looks great too.

I wonder if they'll make it for tablets soon too. Eventhough the tablet I have has ubuntu ported already, but not for mobile. Just the plane desktop OS.
I second the dual booting idea! The Ubuntu phone looks awesome just like the Ubuntu Desktop looks awesome. But I can't help but think that like the Ubuntu desktop the phone will have a huge applications gaps to over come.
This looks interesting but when would the first alpha roms would show up? I kind of think they havent even open sourced it like open webos

If there was one single thing that I truely hate about this phone, it's the dialer. Maybe HTC spoiled me with the sense dialer, perhaps I spent too much time using MIUI, all I know is that our stock dialer has the least intuitive interface since CIUI for the EVO 4G.
Can anyone recommend a good alternative?

No such thing as a best rom, READ OP!!! and post a questions in the question area next time reported to be terminated.
OP it's great that you found something that worked for your phone, in your area, with your signal for exactly what you do with your phone. As you can see a lot of factors are involved and do not apply to everyone.
