Has anyone tried it yet, what was the outcome?
Is it possible?
Please share your ideas, views and suggestions here.
I think i read somewhere about it, but the project is not continue, unfortunatelly :/
search, maybe you'll find something
Hey Abhishek...
Why do you need to create another thread...??
There are two ongoing threads on the same topic... And if you are interested please head on to those to find out the info about porting android on bada..
Dont create unnecessary threads.... I suggest delete this... or after sometime all we will see in the Bada Section is useless threads....
*facepalm*
Read other topics WWW.ANDROIDPORT.NEt there is the wavedroid project.
Go away and come back when you have some progress for us wavedroid.
Still wondering if wavedroid is a money making exercise or a genuine attempt at getting Android over. The delays don't help the impression this is an exercise being led by folks more eager than actually having the skills to accomplish the task.
I'll be the first to eat my hat if this ever comes to fruition, but I won't be donating anything to something that at this point seems to have only updates on various delays.
Hows this for an interesting post on the JetDroid website...
Not sure why you need the expensive software, it is nice and would help but 95% of the works is already completed for you guys.
To start:
Look for phones with same hardware then use that parts from their android and put the parts into a custom version. You can reuse the /sbin and /system folders from the android sdk virtual machine or if you want better performance use the /sbin and /system of a similar hardware phone android version and just add your init , init.rc , zimage and package this into a rom or dual boot like we do.
CPU:
The wave / Samsung-Intrinsity S5PC110 cpu is much more supported than our s3c6410 and used even by Apple so look at idroid , samsung crespo , HTC 4G android , samsung i9000 for sources for your android files to start from.
Screen:
The screen is possibly the same as S8000 or Spica, wave 3.3" the rest is in other samsung opensource files you just need to mix and match parts.
Obstacles:
The biggest problem might be the cpu and screen + andreno or powervx or Mali display driver but android.so will work until you get to the video driver.
Camera:
Camera is in M910 samsung opensource files / other 5MP camera, there is only a few 5MP camera from that samsung uses so might need to work on the code if you can not find it from a same camera android phone version that is already working.
Now make a good WaveDroid version:
Once you have all this and have it working then you can build a clean custom version of android optmized for your phone. CM for HTC 4G phones might work with almost no or little changes possibly just in the kernel.
The samsung opensource website has the SCH-W850 / SPH-W8500 / SPH-W8550 , this could share some hardware with Samsung Wave as well, similar number codes. Look for a recent code release nov/dec 2010 or later.

After reading that, I felt I could almost make an android port myself lol. Clearly there are some very knowledgeable and experienced persons out there.
What really bugs me is the Wavedroid folks have been asking for money for months, yet have shown not a shred of proof they have accomplished anything. Secondly, folks have been asking (rightfully so), why you have not implemented a Paypal widget so people can see just how much money you have raised so far. I know you are using illegal software and thus don't want to let everyone into your inner circle to see the progress, but you have shown and proved absolutely nothing. There are more doubts than positive feelings at the moment.
Please don't let this thread grow to one of two-three pages which is worth nothing, there is already another one just for this purpose
Android port is stuck because programmers dont have any programm to edit the bootloader of wave,so they can not do the port...
If anyone knows any free programm to edit ARM 7 files (like IDA 5.7) please give it to them.
But if nobody knows any programm for this case the have to wait until they have enough money form donations to buy the IDA 5.7
(sorry for my english)
This is outrageous, the fact that you need commercial tools to do what your looking to do clearly denotes your level of incompetence. Look at idroid. i didnt see them asking people for money to buy tools?? And i would say that Apple did a much better job locking down the i range then samsung did with the Wave. If you have stumbled at the starting block just forfeit the race.
Prove to us that you know what the f**k your doing and then you can have your donations.
Generally i supported this project, but then you asked for money. Money changes everything.

I agree with U
Asking for money, without providing any scrap of proof that anything is even going on, is what irks people here. Not even a simply paypal donation widget exists so folks can see what the $ count is too.
Too many red flags on this one. I know I'm not the first to ask for proof, or even just something other than "we are working it, it'll be done soooooon, give us all your moneys roflwtflolbbq"
So many other android ports happened without need for this software. And also may I point out what seems total ineptitude on the wavedroid team's part. The Galaxy S contains pretty much the identical hardware as the Wave does. In fact you find me a phone that has identical hardware, one running android, the other something else, and tell me we already have as near an android phone as you're going to get. Compared to other port projects, this should have been done in a weekend to be honest.
wavedroid are bogus, and will accomplish nothing just like all the so called Android to Wave projects and groups previously.
I agree with sabian. I don't know a **** about how difficult or easy is this, but i'm pretty sure that there are good developers around here. Why couldn't you start a new project?
I aggre with you guys,it is very odd that they ask for money without doing anythink...
I just posted that if you know any free software that works with ARM7 files it would be good to inform then...
But they have a very good reason to ask for money because if they can not edit the bootloader they can not load anythink else from bada...if they do that the project it would be almost done because wave and galaxy s have similar hardware so with some fixes to scripts they will have a very good androidport to wave..
I've tried using Google Cardboard with the Gear VR headset and the results are not great - nothing like as good as with the Oculus software.
I know you can hack it to get it work again if you are rooted, but I am not. Is there any other way?
I have read many of your posts Chippy_boy and I doubt I could dissuade you but for the sake of anybody else reading this thread can I point out what a really stupid idea using any VR device with a Note 7 is. Does it really have to be said?
I'm sure nobody needs it pointing out that this is a device that has been withdrawn by the manufacturer at enormous expense because it has a fault that causes it to catch fire in spectacular fashion. And before people start posting their home brewed calculations of the risk, NOBODY knows the risk of this happening in the future because you have NO information what the fault is and therefore the future likelihood of failure.
<Mod Snip>
Tom, perhaps you mean well and thank you for your thoughts on this matter.
But have a think on how many Note7's have been shipped. And how many have caught fire in a GearVR headset, i.e. none.
In fact have another think on how many have "exploded". Also none.
People can make up their own minds about how dangerous or not this might be, but thanks anyway.
Let's keep things respectful please.
Thanks!
:good:
I think, in my opinion, when somebody asks for help about some topic, if anybody has an answer or idea as to how to help, that person may choose to or not to help, but please, dont try to convince or educate others, to do what you think must be done, help if you can, thats all
rooting is likely the only option outside of cardboard. unfortunately in the situation there is going to be very limited new development for the phone.
Hello everyone
I have three phones right now: a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 & Note 3, as well as a Motorola G2.
My aim is to learn hardware repair while learning some software skills.
I live in India and would like to know which tools to get in order to repair my own devices.
As I write this, the Notes both have cracked screens and the Note 3 has a faulty power button. Once, they are repaired, I can properly begin to enjoy their scope for software.
Thank you for reading.
It's something very easy to fix theses problems. I recommend you to try to follow some repair guide in www.Ifixit.com (there's a app too). If you need any other assistance please send me a private message.
Good luck in your learning process!
Hi - new to this forum and although I've tried to search for solutions here I confess to being confused as to what to do or whether it can be done, so I apologise in advance for my lack of knowledge and hope someone can help me.
I purchased a new Microsoft Lumia 650 about a month ago but every time the phone starts (after being switched off) I'm greeted with the "Cricket" banner/page. My understanding is this is an American thing? I was completely unaware of this branding before purchasing (it wasn't mentioned in the sale information).
Either way I what I want to do is to completely remove this branding from the phone which involves re-flashing with another ROM?
The phone model number is RM-1150 and the code is 059X6M5. I've also read that this process may also involve changing the product ID?
Again, really sorry that I'm a novice with these things and I'd really appreciate any help or advice with an explanation of how I can hopefully get rid of this rather annoying feature of the phone.
Thanks in advance. :good:
Hi There I have scoured the XDA forums for up to date information on either the LDU S10 or Note 10 device range. Unfortunately there seems to be very little information on hand, which is unusual considering there are loads of threads about previous Galaxy S series LDUs and retail mode disabling.
If anyone has information about disabling retail mode on the current generation devices, your help is much appreciated.
Note: The password 5444 trick that used to work no longer does, which would allow factory reset and MDM removal. Now I don’t plan on taking a gamble using ODIN to try and flash stock N975F onto my N975X device for fear of bricking. I have successfully flashed S6 devices in the past but I’m a bit more reluctant with the lack of info on hand.
Any help is much appreciated, those of you who might be inclined to post ‘This is a retail device, you shouldn’t have it’ - I would politely state I bought this on ebay as a legitimate listing and would like to use it for Android Studio App development for my final year college project. I have used LDUs in the past as an access point to development on Android as my daily driver is iOS and I wanted to break away from Xcode for a different challenge. I do computer science and have a passion for smartphones so spending 1200€ to do App testing on a Note10 Plus is not an option when I paid similar for my daily driver.
To clarify when I say a ‘legitimate ebay listing’ - if I can purchase on ebay with my own money that is my business and clearly satisfies eBays user agreement. Thanks in advance, all info welcome.
Same here
Hey Stephen, Please let me know if you have any developments with this as I am in the same boat as you
