Probably a very silly question but I have to ask ;-)
Will Windows 7 ever be able to run on a rooted HTC desire ?
If so who's gonna have a go ...

one word WHY!! I can cope without another device showing a blue screen of death!!
No, Windows is closed source so making it work is difficult and probably illegal too.
@OP: That's a joke right? ..... right??

Windows 7 is x86 if not x64 architecture and will not run on ARM based Systems.
And since its closed source nobody will bother.
So its not gonna happen.
If you like closed source buy Apple
More to the point, if you want windows mobile, buy an HD2.
And how about using the search button? This gets asked EVERY week.
Always someone moans about using the search button ... if you know the answer don't read the thread.
Ofcourse I don't want a HD2 otherwise my signature would say sent from hd2 all I wanted to.know is whether anyone would be able to get 7 to.run on the desire regardless of who likes it or what platform its meant for

My point is if you used the search button we would not be having this pointless discussion, these threads are very repetitive to regulars and just add more clutter to the rom development section.

That is indeed the most silly quesition u could come up with..
Are u one of the boys who want to brag around saying their phone is like the best, because its an android phone but it can also run other devices OS meaning u got like 2 or 3 phones in one??
I mean thats pretty lame. Go buy an HD2 and run android on it, or flash a rom stuffed with galaxy S wallpapers and themes and stuff.
You bought a desire.. thats like the ultimate gadget out there.. and ur still not happy with it? Go ask ur mommy and daddy to break the piggy bank, and post a thread saying "i'll pay 1500€ per developer, who will join the team in making win7 flashable on desire"
that should answer your "silly" question about IF and WHEN as well as WHO.
Sry but posts like this just piss me off.. WHY would you want a regular interior of VW Golf 1,9 TDI in a freaking Ferrari???
Thats what u wanna have with asking for win7 on a desire!

Ofcourse we freakin' moan. We frequent XDA visitors see the same question posted over and over again by people who don't search.
If you had searched, you would also know the answer, just like those who read the rules when they sign up for XDA-Dev forums.
In the top of this very forum there is a simple thread called "Forum & Marketplace Rules".
And the first rule, to rule all the rest is:
1. Search before posting.
Use one of our search functions before posting, whether you have a question or something new to share, it's very likely someone already asked that question or shared that news.

As are these sorts of posts moaning about search buttons. Ironic eh?
there are 2 main points that make this thread pointless!!!
1) porting windows mobile is not possible on an android phone!
2) (and the most important) even if it was possible, windows mobile isnt open source, none of us own a licence for windows phone 7, that would make it piracy and therefore illegal
Hold on a min folks!!
CountryMous3 asked a simple question wherther you think it stupid or not.
All you folk need to say is yes or no-go! There is absolutely no need to get all hotted up about someone asking what you feel is a stupid question.
Yes remind them of the search function, but hey were you born with the knowledge you now have??
@Daelyn
Are you suggesting the mods are not doing their job to your satisfaction? If the mods you talk about are to deal with noobs as harshly as you believe they should for failing to observe correct forum etiquette, then how much more should you and those who have treated a noobie as if they were a moron, be altogehter FORCEFULLY EJECTED from the site..knowledge and all! Y'all should know better!! It takes so-called 'stupid ' questions from a brave heart to carve new parts in uncharted territory!
Chew on that then flame me too if you must but you know you're all being unsavoury.
I'm getting my new Evo 4g tuesday. And I want to root it straight up. What is the best way to do this? Is their something like 1 click root? Also I'm looking for a rom that has all the Sprint Bloatware removed and keeps just the Htc sence gui but a nice clean Rom which one is best?

Hi all this is Ahmad
i need to know 2 things from you guys
1- When 2.3 will be officially released for DHD, and where to know that is released?
2- If i downloaded apps and games from 4shared.com like this:
search: ninjafruit.apk
and installed it, dose this will have bad affects on my device later, or bad affect
on the update process in the future, and if that is bad how can i make
everything safe again?
Thanks in advance
Sometimes 4shared apps request unneeded permissions.

1) there is no official release dates for GB
2) downloading apps from 4shared is illegal, android is susceptable to malware, recently there was a big virus scare at applanet, another pirate apps site, so not only are you breaking the law, putting your personal information and device at risk, but also the future of android, why would a dev continue to waste there money and time developing apps for android, when people like you are stealing from them? they will just move to ios or windows phone .....

That's just BS in my ears, if you're not gonna download anything illegal why ask about what might happen to your device if you did and how will you ever end up in a situation where you got a problem out of downloading illegal .apk's if you're not planning to?
How I see it, is that you just hoped it would be safe to download illegal .apk's why else ask?
If that's not the case you've learned absolutely nothing of use since you'll never be in a situation where you've downloaded any illegal stuf and hence useless info...
And no you're not a thief untill you've actually do the download, but you come off as one who thinks about it or is tempted to do it...
Till now no one answered me about my question only judging and insulting me, is that how you work in this forum, judging people while everyone of you have something he made that worth to be judged about, thanks anyway, sorry for asking anything, thanks for this bad treatment. thanks a lot.

Read the posts again then, your questions where answered a few times and yes you'll get judged when you come off as a person who would download illegal .apk's instead of paying for them.
And please stop acting like a victim it just doesn't suite anybody...
Will say this you might think about how or what you ask in the future to avoid miscommunication/understandings...
Ohh and by the way didn't want to insult you at all, just saw your post as BS and had to call you on that...
To answer your 2. question there will always be a risk downloading ripped software from som file host/sharing page as there is with any other OS... So if you choose to download it will be at your own risk and you might get hit by karma on the way...

Great stuff, had a blast reading these I totally agree with Androhero, ghostofcain and Dousan. There is absolutely no point in asking such stuff if you haven't planned to do so in the future. Preparing yourself for a situation that would never happen, according to da_omens writing, is a total waste of time yours, theirs, mine, everyones. And playing the part of a huge victim here...don't hate the player, you know how it goes Oh and seems to me that you got the most appropriate answers to your questions that one could expect on those matters. Just in case you are just trolling, good luck with that!
Well after days of not being able to make calls in the office via the Suresignal, and after swapping out the phone for a new one, I had to get a refund.
Really wanted to keep this device, but as a business, and not being able to make or receive calls in the office, it had to go, and yes I've been through the turning WIFI off etc, but every other device I have owned seems to be able to connect to wifi and the Suresignal at the same time and make phone calls.
There seems to be an issue with connecting to the Vodafone Suresignal, and HTC didn't know about the issue when I called, and had no help on the matter.
Such a shame....
it might be kind of a shame to add another thread to so many when there is a returns thread. everyone sees you now, though, and there are tons of dupe threads that stay open so i'm sure you can wait around and get some more replies. =]
Don't really understand the need for your post, I made a valid point, one that CPW and HTC seem (or claim) to be unaware of.
After spending just under £500, I think I have reason to gripe.
The one drawback with forums seems to be a global thing across all forums, is that there is always someone that wants to have a pop and say "do a search before posting" etc, but surely a forum is to ask and seek advice, and discuss, not to just search an archive, we may just as well have a searchable database and be done with if that's the attitude.
Why doesn't a mod just move the thread as is the norm if it's that much of an issue?
As I see it, you have not made any constructive additions to the thread at all, does your One X connect to a sure signal, do you have a solution for it?
Some of us don't have hours and hours to trawl through shed loads of threads and search results, and only spend a few short minutes online when work commitments allow.
Just a tip, if your thread is about Sure Signal, put that in the title.

So calls are ok outdoor? When the reception is good? Then it is not phone's problem.
One valid solution, ask your boss to place you closer to window.

I actually agree with this comment.
The OP has RETURNED his phone, hes not posting to ask for a solution before he returns and so isnt actually asking for help to fix something.
If he had been asking for help as a last straw, then yes, a new thread my be a good idea… just stating a fact that hes returned the phone…. kinda pointless

Had 2 phones (and yes updated both), HTC had no idea, Vodafone had no idea, Carphone Warehouse had no idea, so what do you do, leave a £500 paperweight on the desk because it can't make calls like any other device on the market, or take it back within the 30 days to get your £500 back?
I searched....and searched for answers, posted on the VF forum, but nobody had any answers, I wonder just how many of you actually use a device for work, and rely on it for communication, instead of just playing angry birds and posting a Facebook update that you've just bought a can of cola!
I see countless complaint threads about "there's a mark on my device, I want it exchanged" or "my screen creaks" etc etc etc, to me, that's petty, but people deem them to be worthy of much discussion.....

If you know this has nothing to do with the S3, but rather the HTC One V, post it in it's proper place.
Your review is very subjective. When talk about speed, you say it's slow, but slow compared to what? Use numbers, benchmarks would help, especially 3 month from now, when a new generation of phones come out.
your review also focuses on the superficial. I know you are a teenager, because you say it, but don't make your review sound like a 12 year old boy who only cares about how "cool" something looks. What about battery life? How loud the phone is? Reception? Storage size? All those would play in to how a phone can be "used".

Best place to get peer review on a product is probably that product's forum.

one v has 3.7 inch screen not 4.3 inch.
Also, this is one v not one s. Please edit your review.

I updated it. Lemme know if I need anything else guys,
Thanks a lot
Yes, you can make this review a lot better by writing something about the phone. IMO even temple run does not run on the stock rom. Also, sense is much better than touchwiz.
I don't think so ^ I guess I'm just used to the TouchWiz UI lool
I think touchwiz is just **** and samsung would do themselves a favour by using stock.

Not sure what to make of this mess. His review is about the One V. This is the One V forum, and the thread is posted in the One V general sub-forum, so unless this was already moved I don't see what the problem is. Also, this goes to everyone: If you see a violation or mis-post, just quietly report it and carry on. Confronting the other person only starts a flame war, and puts you in the hot seat, which could lead to consequences. TBH, I thought the way some of you treated the OP was absurd. He is only looking for feedback, not to be berated in front of other members.
Flaming another member for violating the rules, is a violation in and of itself. Please refrain from flamatory or disruptive behavior towards other members. Those found participating in this type of behavior will be dealt with.
