[ROM] WinMo/WinPhone 7 on Nexus One

Hey folks,
im just asking if anyone yet tried a port of windows mobile 6.5.xx or Phone 7 onto our Nexus?

No point in windows 6.5 that is a downgrade but seven might be worth it.

Well also meego , ubuntu, or windows 98 have been kinda ported, its not that i want it 4 daily Use, but because we can!
Phone 7 might be worth a port though...

Answered something like a thousand times.
It's a closed OS, with proprietary sources. If there will be a phone very similar in specs to Nexus, which will be running this OS - there might be a port. If not - then there won't be.
I don't believe anyone with skills to port WinMo 6.5 from HD2 would waste his time doing it.

The HTC Mozart seems pretty similar to the Nexus

Yep, I just threw up in my mouth.

There is a ROM of the HTC Mozart in the WP7 thread here, in xda.

If someone with skills want to try...

Could someone direct me to the meego and Ubuntu thread? That would be fun.

I don't think anyone is interested in this, since nexus owner aren't that many..and I think the majority of nexus owners are kind of android fanboys...
Hope i'm wrong, because i'd really like to convert my Nexus in a WP7...until Gingerbread (or whatever) comes

Currently I'm on rods muiu rom and it is great. I would love to try windows 7 on my nexus though. I'm trying to figure out how to get Ubuntu without a computer on my nexus

I think that could be interesting to run WP7 into a Nexus to play a little.
But take a look at this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=737142
If I could try this....
I know this is off-topic but, someone here knows something about Gingerbread?

Wow the new htc phones are using the same processor as our nexus ones, it seems the hardware in all the phones are generally the same as the nexus one (apart from that extra internal storage). I wonder if porting would be possible

I think that it is possible to take WP7 on a Nexus and I really hope that!
Howewer is not a mystery that the Android Community don't like Windows and Microsoft philosophy...

I like the fact that WP7 is very polished compared to android. Hope it gets ported!

Not likely to happen. MS lawyers will have a c and d on the developer, any involved websites, etc in about two seconds. Think apple stype policing of what is entirely closed source and you can bet your ass heavily defended by flocks of attorney who are paid out of one of the biggest war chests in corporate history. The way is going to be to get a windows phone with an android brother and dual boot. That will likely happen.

Android can be polished you just have to theme it a bit. At first it seems very cruel and industrial to me.

I'd love to see WP7 work on my Nexus One. If it doesn't get ported and it does work on the HD2 I'm probably buying an HD2. Then I can use Android and WP7.

Oh ffs, you must be joking right? Just go and buy the Desire HD if you want android.

thats what i was thinking. why would you buy an HD7 with the intention of putting android onto it, when you could have just bought the Desire HD.

Oh FFS, here we go again

guys stop being so mean, give him the link so he can download android.exe

Just ignore the kids. It is not possible to do that, yet until maybe when the bootloader is cracked

Guys I just brought my HD7 can you send me the link to WP8?*
*sorry had to do that, still wetting myself with laughter at the moment. Putting aside the fact that the phone is just 10 days old and has no way of upgrading it's native OS at this moment in time why would anyone want Android on the HD7? There are already perfectly good phones with the same spec that already have Android as the native OS.
It's a bit like buying a car and expecting it to FLY me to Spain.

That review in your link is a WP7 ad, dumbass. What about lack of multitasking? Lack of copy/paste? A terrible browser? Lack of flash? WP7 is clearly not ready for prime time. Anyone with half a brain would know that Android is much, much better in its current iteration.

What's with the hostility?
I'm a massive android fan, always have been, always will be. I had the G1 when it was first released here in the UK and I've convinced many people to take the jump to Android.
I now have a HD7, I wanted to try something new (yes I've tried iOS before and hate it). Android isn't "much, much better" infact there are a lot of things that WP7 does 1000x better than Android. Ofc there are things missing and there are also things that Android does better but they're pretty equal imo. Infact, Personally I actually prefer Windows Phone 7.
Before you call me a "dumbass" like you did to the previous person, may I point out that you're talking to someone who is currently perusing a Computer Science degree at one of the best Universities in the UK and has had Android for exactly 2 years today.
---------------
Just to add, back to the OP. It's not possible to "install" android atm. It might be in the future though we'll never know.
And for people calling him stupid, it does sort of seem stupid at first glance but think about it this way:
Android = Open Source
WP7 = Closed Source
WP7 will therefore never be on an Android handset.
It may be possible to one day port Android over to WP7 handsets due to it being Open Source.
So theoretically, buying the HD7 over the Desire HD could be getting you a device capable of running 2 OSs, we're just too early in the lifecycle of the OS to even think about porting Android yet.

OK, so copy and past and multi tasking are not there yet, Flash? When did Flash come as part of Android? You can add it after, which again is going to happen to WP7 in the future.
Before slating someone else, maybe at least have half and argument to back it up.
And as for the original OP, it IS a silly question, the OP obviously has some knowledge of multiple operationg systems to be able to ask that question and not as naive as people may think. Some people are so hooked on having the latest and greatest, shiniest shiny thing, that they already want to replace a 10 day old OS!
I never realised the foot-and-mouth syndrome was still out there.

I love that you call someone else a dumbass then put forward these over used and dry arguments. It is so bad when people have to try and pick holes with half hearted points.
First multitasking seems to be a big buz word and on a phone is a lit of hype over nothing. For 90% of smartphone users it adds nothing to the expirience but extream battery drain. All I seemed to do whith my desire is close programs wasting away in the background.
Flash and copy and paste will be here within a very short time a d tbh I am thankfull tha MS has given us wp7 now with the promise then make me wait longer for it to be out, if you can't live without it till the update then just wait for it before buying as you would of dond if they held it back till then anyway
And last the browser that at first glance looks like android wins and tbh it is so much better to use BUT it is a huge memory drain and that linked with multitasking means if you move to a diff app while on the wrong site and when you come to make a call, the thing a phone is for, you will have no power to do so.
Wp7 is not perfect but j feel people see Microsoft and jump on the it must be rubbish bandwagon. Wp7 is a real revolution in phone os and I for one am glad that I sold my desire to get one the benefits far outweigh the small to be fixed holes.

WP7 on the N1???

Did someone try porting the WP7 to the N1??

Not possible.

More importantly... WHY?
That'd be like taking the motor out of a Honda Civic and sticking it in a Lamborghini Gallardo. Fail.

he has a point

I think it could be a great idea, because, for example, I really want our Nexus One to be like the HTC HD2! Been able to "work" also with other OSes..
Plus, Windows Phone 7 seems to be very snappy and minimal!
Android is obviously better, but I really want to try the Seven

...

There was another thread asking the same question and someone said only its possible to port WP7 to a android phone if there already exists a WP7 which is basically the same device with WP7 on it.
I think the HD7 is pretty much the same device as the HD2?

Hd2 is the greatest HTC device in the market thanx to all the devs to bring out the real potential of the LEO.wish all htc devices was able to do that.i would rather try wp7 on my hd2 rather than my n1.hd2 is fully functional android just like every other native androids and its running better than my n1.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

First of all I'm glad to know that my curiosirty has interest with other people as well.
second, the reason for the WHY is of course curiosity, and the fact that the N1 is a capable device and it'll be interesting to see how it would function with other OS.

That's handy then, as teardowns show the HTC Surround is basically a Nexus One.

HD2 runs Android awfully, compared to N1. I couldn't stand looking at it stuttering all over the place where N1 flies.
The other problem for this port is bootloader and FS compatibility. While it could probably be overcome, it might not be straightforward, just as it's quite hard to install Windows and Linux on the same partition, both using different native FS. On WM phones there is many-years-old way of loading other systems "under" Windows (I'm not really into details, but AFAIK the other system doesn't load from bootloader, but from early stages of WM kernel - which is the reason why WM-loaded OSes run like crap). On Android phones, it doesn't work that way, and there is no universally used way of loading other OSes.
And the biggest problem for all the curious would probably be just that no dev has taken interest in doing it.

if HTC 7 Surround is simular to N1, is it possible to port the whole bootloader and system of surround to N1. and and run Android "on the top" of WP7 just like what HD2 does

this could be a very very interesting project... as there are quite a few developers currently working on a WP7 like launcher for android. and if we could run wp7 it would be a pretty amazing.

that is actually provably false due to the fact the HD2 is TMobile-only. the devs have squeezed every ounce out of it no doubt, but for a phone to be the greatest HTC device it would have to be available across all GSM networks, not just the B-list one

I would love trying wp7 on my nexus. The OS interests me, not enough though to shell out for an entire new phone. Especially since all the wp7 phones really aren't special hardware wise.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App

So....
What does it take to port an OS??
do we need a new bootloader? do we need the WP7 source code?

You will never get WP7 source code.
I guess you'd need a complete dump from the Surround to work from.

Crap! I knew it would happen

I knew Android would eventually get ported to the HD7, but I sold mine! The HD7 will make an excellent Android phone, and an excellent upgrade from the HD2, because of the cap buttons. And now that WP7 is a half-hearted, at best, mobile OS, the timing for this is right on.
Thankfully I have an HTC Inspire, which is very much similar to the HD7 with cap buttons and all.
http://pocketnow.com/tech-news/htc-hd7-gets-android-via-cooked-chinese-rom-video

My roommate has an HD7. Please tell me someone here knows simplified Han Chinese (according to Google Translate). He would love it

i'm an HD7 user from Taiwan, and am patiently waiting traditional Chinese input for WP7.
this would be nice, but it would have to be a very complete and stable OS for me to make a switch.
IMO, WP7 is good enough for me now. Just need that chinese input, and i'm happy.

Preety Impress and sure it will rock on the HD7
But having come from android to windows, I seem to prefer Windows mobile now compared to android and may only consider flashing it if its dual boot or something
WP7 seems to have grown on me
Still have my HTC HERO for my android needs (although I just use it for flashing new roms and thats it nowadays )

dual booting would be awesome, hahaha

Holy Crap!

Can I have one too??

Im not impressed really.
These are the same people who showed us a video of wp7 on hd2 (back in november), booting from nand without magldr, but they never released anything until cotulla did it.

Android? Is that that really laggy, fragmented "operating system" which is a bastardization of a clone of UNIX, made by an Internet Advertising Company? The one that's "open source" but for which they're not releasing the source any more? The one that recently got hit by a bunch of trojan apps, and which the Pandora app exploited to snaffle user data?
Oh.
Yeah I want that on my HD7. No, really.

Not really. In the case of WP7, it turns out to be half-hearted at best. Android would be an improvement, especially on the HD7. It would be like pulling a Yugo hamster wheel out and installing a Corvette LT1.

We get it, you don't like it. XDA forums aren't for fanboys posting flame-bait. Take it elsewhere.

I think the port is done for the heck of it. I really don't see a pont to run Androind on my HD7. The biggest hurdle for me to try another OS is thelack of WP7 keyboard on those OSs. I cannot imagine typing using another SW KB anymore.

Android for HD7

So I don't know why WP7 people feel the need to bash the ones who want android for this device. I'm an HD2 owner, have had android on it for basically the entire time I have owned it...and it's been awesome, because lets face it, Windows Mobile 6.5 was garbage. I recently dropped it and cracked the screen pretty severely, checked into getting it replaced by my $8/month phone insurance (which I have since cancelled), and they (not shockingly) advised me that they can no longer replace it with another HD2, but with a HD7 instead.
So I looked here first, wondering how easily I could put android on it and was shocked by the lack of android development, and the numerous attitudes towards it. Obviously it would be better/easier to get another "4.3" inch HTC phone that runs andro-crap", but I won't be able to do that for a couple of months and was looking at a quick fix. I'm just surprised that it hasn't been done, since it's been done on almost EVERY OTHER PHONE. I just don't get it. So I'm going to buy a digitizer and just replace the screen on my HD2. Just thought I would share my experience. Oh, and yes, I have played around with WP7, and while much better than 6.5 it's just not for me.
Let the bashing commence...

No bashing here, well written post, honest and truthful. Nothing wrong with that.

I agree with you completely. I'm in the exact same situation as I had a dual boot android/wp7 hd2 and the digitizer broke. Mostly I used android because of the apps, but I like wp7 better for it's sleek design.
I'm baffled how 75% of people on the hd7 threads can say 'JUST GO BUY A ANDROID PHONE" and "why would you want to dual boot an hd7?". I could buy an android phone but, stupid tmobile replaced my hd2 with an hd7 for free. it's a great phone, there are few which are better currently.
In the hd2 threads, most people wanted to push the limits and explore every possible option; that seems to be missing in large part from the hd7 threads. "just go buy an android phone" will never be the answer.
shame on you who say this...

The only reason to bash I can see, is the lack of people reading and realizing that there is a dedicated Android thread just a couple lines above, where stuff like this should have been posted. Haha...
Otherwise, there is just very little interest in getting Android on this device, which means that it makes more sense to go buy an Android phone, because you're just going to be waiting a while for an Android solution, on a device/platform that does not need it as much as something like the HD2/WinMo did. Hence why there is little to no progress on getting Android on this device.

if this is true then why dont you buy a mozart and try this rom...

The overall WP7 posse hardly resembles the WM crowd.
I've been a die hard Windows fan ever since my AT&T 8525-even before that with a couple PPC PDA's. When I lost that phone I replaced it with a Samsung Epix. Despite my horrible experience software fiascoes and the Epix, I still returned to Window's Mobile when I got my Tilt2. It was while I was dealing with my Epix that I discovered a cooked rom on a site that I had not previously heard of, XDA Developers. I now use this site a my primary guide to purchase new phones...if I can't hack it and install custom roms I have no interest in it.
Through my time with my Tilt2 I made some observations about the Windows Mobile community. Many of them were like me and had over time found many CABs that work well for them and were content with a platform that the were familiar with. Many of them were veteran programmers well versed in C++ and could really do some magic. Others just signed a two year contract with the cheapest old smart phones their provider was clearing out. What ever the reason we had our devices in a world where IOS and Android were rapidly taking over. Every one worked together and amazing things were accomplished. In the Touch Pro 2 forums, Android and Ubuntu was running, and a lot of you are familiar with everything that was done with the HD2. These things happened because WM fans by nature enjoyed doing them.
As Windows Mobile phones started to die off through breakage and device upgrades, a lot of my companions switch gears to the Iphone after it made great strides since the first gen EDGE only model, in OS capability, hardware performace, and a now enormous hacking community. Others who wanted remain anti Apple and wanted more freedom out of the box went with Android.
It finally came to my time in the begining of this year to upgrade. I knew very little about Windows Phone 7 devices except that I did not know a single person who owned one and that it was not backwards compatible with any of my software. Being completely anti Apple I began shopping around fully intending to buy an Android device. I started playing with floor models and I noticed one thing about every Android device. No matter how fast the hardware was, when I would touch and slide to unlock, there was always a noticeable lag. I found that to be a bad sign. Then when navigating the phones, they all lack the responsiveness of my wifes Iphone 4. So I tried the Windows Phone devices and they were all incredibly responsive. In all the menus and and web browser I slide my finger rapidly trying to out run the display and I swear I could not find any where that lagged. I was intrigued and hooked. After checking XDA and of all the WP7 phones available to me with AT&T, the HD7s was the only one with custom roms.
I believe this to be the only reason any of us here. Window Phone 7's foundation is simply flawless. Now that's not to say over all the OS is any where near perfect. It is severely lacking in software, customization, and even basic preferences. It is in these ways I've described WP7 as ever more "iPhone" than the iPhone itself. Now all this mean's is the biggest reason any body has a WP7 device is because the actually like it. So it's not far from reason there is little interest in changing operating systems. We've reached a point were all smart phones have virtually equal internal hardware so phone are chosen primarily based on software. The people who find themselves stuck with an HD7 against their liking are a very small fraction of an already small community. Those coming from an HD2 or a Rodium know that to get Anrdroid onto these devices took countless man hours from many very determined and very talented people working together. They just aren't with us here in the HD7 community. We are lucky to have the very talented developers that are here producing custom Windows ROMs.

Own android nd wm7/hd7
I agree with all of you but, with that said this is my take on it. I am using Simple Mobile $60 unlimited plan by the way just so everyone knows. I have both a htc hd7 with a 32gb sd in it- its running mango. I also have three android phones. HTC wildfire s in white, Samsung Vibrant, Htc mytouch 4g(my only 4g phone). Starting from the top. All my android phones have custom roms installed and are rooted. I love android as much as the next guy cause when I use those phones I love the apps and love that I have all of them nearly maxed out on there performance figures due to the roms and overclocking.
This being said all my android phones still can not keep up with my hd7 in everyday use when you talk about smoothness. Like the guy before me was saying as well how all the android phones he tested lagged when unlocking. That is still the same situation here with me after installing custom roms which did make the phones faster and after overclocking made then even faster. But even with my hd7 running a stock mango rom it still is the phone that I use most because of the smoothness and responsiveness that it has when using it for normal everyday smartphone activities like gps, internet browsing, watching videos, playing music, and texting and calling of course. This stock oem wm7.5 mango hd7 works better at all these things than any of my android phones.
This being said I would like to have android on the device as a dual boot that way I would get rid of my other android phones and just have this one phone for both. But, I would still use wm most of the time, which is the reason that I think ppl who own an hd7 or any other wm7 or 7.5 phone own them cause everything works great. and yes i agree with the other guy before me in saying that it does need more development in customizations and applications. but where it lacks here it makes up for in performance and ease of use. so in my opinion there is a plus and minus to both android phones and wm phones. the only question is which one will correct there downfalls first. apples will not be talked about with me cause i hate them but, as far as wm and droid go both need improvements.
Going with this thread this would be my reason for why i think no one has really developed an android system for this device yet cause unlike the android devices the hd7 does everything the way a smartphone should. I would dual boot but, i would never wipe wm7.5 off of it cause that would just be stupid and would be like downgrading. performance wise wm7 > android anyday until android fixes their laggy os.
