Hey all, no doubt there has been discussion on how to obtain and load a new Windows Mobile 2005 OS onto the Blue Angel on this board, however, I couldn't find anything specific to my circumstance.
A friend loaded my MDAIII with a beta of Windows Mobile 2005, which has now become expired and the phone is not useable anymore. I need to load a final version of the OS on the device, but don't have the rom or the tools to do it, and generally don't know how. I have checked
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Blueangel/
briefly, but wasn't sure what I need. During the use of the beta the camera on the phone was not operational either. Maybe there is a separate set of files to make that work. Can anyone provide some tips on where to get what is needed, and what to do with it? I'm without a phone right now and its kind of a bummer
Thanks for any help.

Sorry to tell you this , you need to read here and get from here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blueangel_WM5_Home
Beta Expired
Sorry? Don't be, that is exactly what I needed, except for one thing. It is talking about using activesync to connect to the device. The device is not in a state where it is accepting connections. As soon as you turn it on and it boots, you get your password screen. As soon as you log in you are presented with a "this beta has expired" message and can't go anywhere / do anything. Still investigating...
Has anyone seen this beta screen before?

I have not experienced anything like this when i used to use WM5.
I belive you should be able to do this by putting the thing into bootloader mode and then flash it with the XDA Developers version.
Wait...where did your friend get the version he put on your BA?
Is it the same Rom version/OS version?

Nice , maybe he had version difference with us.

ask your friend to enter bootloader and make an SD-backup of his ROM and share it with us. It is very interesting to look at his OS.
The instruction is written here: http://en.pdamobiz.com/en/forum/PDAforum_posts.asp?TID=151&PN=1
PM me if you need more info.

Hi,
Due to the impossibility to download apps from Android Market for thoses who are running Haykuro G build, I suggest to post here some "must have" apps in order for us to continue to live without the market for some days/weeks
Personally, I'd need AKNotepad, ASTRO, AndFTP, Android VNC, Meebo.
Can someone post the latest version of theses apps here?
I've already tried to find them elsewhere but it was always old versions.
As these apps are free I do not think it breaks the T&Cs of this forum
Thanks in advance
i need meebo, i will post all my APks soon.
That's a great idea but I believe haykuro found a work around. He posted earlier that he was able to download 10 market apps. without troubles. He said the weekly update will be later tonight may be morning (basically said he had to work until 10pm). Don't stop on that account though, we need a better, more up-to-date thread for .apk s

Files in the ROM are not signed... SamFirmware looking for a solution because this ROM may contain MANGO (specific to the Omnia 7).

It's actually so easy to know the exact build of Mango that it contains just dump the VersionID.txt from the IMGFS with HTCRIE as it contains all the compilation information.
someone has a link ?
I can't find it on samfirmware.
ROM is not deployed at this time because the files are not signed.
SamFirmware are looking for a solution for that ROM can be flashed.
what approximate date of Mango release??

Found KD1 on Samfirmware but it doesn't like my Onmia.....KH1 not in the list of download options, maybe a news article?
KD1 is signed by WP_ENGINEER certificate (or whatever, but it can't be flashed on our devices with our current SPL). The same is probably the KH2 ROM. If it was at least on their website, I could check whether it is Mango or not and whether I should mess with it around or not
The ROM I8700XXKH2 will not release !
What about power users?
This version will be release soon. With new radio and MANGO.
http://www.samfirmware.com/apps/blog/show/8355882-windows-phone-7-5-omnia-7
And for information there is another version for dev : ROM I8700XXKI1
If I understand the blog post correctly, they say, that they could not release WP7_PRODUCT ROM, so they released only WP7_ENGINEER.
If I had spare Omnia, I would give it a try, but I don't have one.
Hmm. I wonder if this one will have the new localized display languages?
Samsung could make a case in court against us.
Because the roms are officialy not released by Samsung we can't do this.
The only thing we can do is releasing the rom so you guys can try it by yourself.

ROM is release but not unlock for all of us. Only Devs.
Samsungfirmware success to hack it but will not relase it. Umh how long we have to wait before hack be release !!!
Nope, just the classic
0C0A (Spanish), 040C (French), 0407 (German), 0409 (US English), 0410 (Italian), 0809 (UK English)
Okay, me and Ceesheim are trying out something.
There is .cab.pks file in the update, that contains only OEM specific updates:
http://clip2net.com/s/19zi6
(left extracted ROM, right the update package for the same item)
Ceesheim is trying to flash it through "Zune", I don't have spare phone to mess around on
Will keep you posted.
// The only thing that might be problem is the Radio (PHONE) part, as that one is not updated. Yet we update RIL in one of the packages :/.
so as far as I understood they released a rom BUT no one can install it because it is only for engineer phones? what are we supposed to do with this release????
f5 f5 f5 f5... waiting for news!
Actually
the enclosed .cab.pks contains everything - new bootloader (5.3.0.8 - but BE WARNED, it might be LOCKED TO WP7_ENGINEER RATHER WP7_PRODUCT! So further flashing Retail ROMs might be blocked!), new radio (2424.11.7.2) and the new drivers set (2424.11.8.2).
The update was succesfully deployed, and the phone booted fine.
Ceesheim is still trying some functions (phone, SMS) and I am trying to take out the new bootloader from the update package.
Yes, as I was afraid, it flashed WP7_ENGINEER bootloader onto the phone with the rest of the stuff too.
Until I can figure out which package contains it, DO NOT FLASH IT! or you will be locked to ENGINEER ROMs only!
Hi Everyone
Just read on several sites how the latest model for Verison will Dual boot into Windows 8.1 and Android.
Is there a way to add this to the existing / original Android M8
Where did you read that?
Theres no way they would release a verison with 2 operating systems especially when android has been widly available for the device. Theres currently no version of a bootloader that has the right environment for windows adding an android boot to there bootloader "to try and even get back to android" Unfortunetly android is open sourse and windows is not, they would have to release there sourcecode to the developing world if they wanted to dual boot with android and they wont. so its up to us to exctract it on our end to make android 's boot loader able to dual boot into windows and hopefully find a way to get back.

it's not the source code which Needs to be released...it's the bootloader which Needs to be extracted and opened to get it working on the android Version! and that's difficult unless someone like cotulla will work on it!
Agreed im just saying we wouldnt need to extract it if they just handed it to us to work with and i hope cotulla does!

From http://www.anandtech.com/show/8390/htc-announces-the-htc-one-m8-for-windows
For some users the most exciting prospect of the HTC One (M8) for Windows may come from the fact that it shares the same hardware as the One (M8). It's possible that the developer community will be able to load the firmware from the HTC One (M8) onto the device in a dual boot configuration with Windows Phone 8 so users can switch between the operating systems as they please.

This is one of those, "Well it might be possible to if developers can figure it out" quotes. As the others have posted, there will be no absolute easy way to do this and a lot of the pains will be on the bootloader side. If someone DOES happen to figure it out, I don't see it happening for a LONG time (This also counts as hope for someone to prove me wrong ). We can only be hopeful that HTC failed to lock down something they should have done.
The HD2 was like the holy grail and I don't see that same sort of configuration happening again.
Htc has in m8 wp8.1 version something like s-off for android devices...in one m8 wp8.1 forum there is a thread where a guy is writing about the whole thing why it won't be that easy to mod the OS etc
I'm a daily "hourly" reader of engadget and they have posted about the version with windows but Verison is not releasing a dual boot version it is up to us to make that happen! Read alittle more carfully before making assumptions. Its possible "maybe" but its allot of work as snickler said its saying whats possible not whats out. Also im with One-M8-Master on this one, check out the thread it should clear a few things up on the boot loader side. lets all hope someone gets lucky and does it!

In another thread, this has been released. here
I moved this thread back to One Q&A since the moderating team decided that's where it belongs, but I'm closing it since we now have a single discussion thread for porting Windows Phone 8 to the current m8s. Please continue the discussion there.

Just wanted to open a thread to let you know that I have spoken to Three UK today (28/02/2019) and they have confirmed that over the next few weeks we should be receiving the Android Pie update for out devices. This is good news as far as I am concerned, shows that they are on it. Hopefully this is good news to people here on the forum and helps with any questions or concerns us UK user's have Any further information I get will be posted here in due time.

Got a link to the global/guide...I'm thinking of doing the same, fed up of hitting system update and seeing nothing!

just make sure you install the android bootdevice driver via have a disk.

So you flashed the unlocked version firmware to your three version to be clear? Wondering if it would be possible to do this with my AT&T version.
Yes that is exactly what I did stock 3uk to stock global

Firstly as I don't know about US carriers double check to see if you can unlock the bootloader in developer options (OEM unlocking) then follow this guide I used minimal ADB fastboot and had to add the razer driver via have a disk this is the guide to follow

Just wanted to update you all, have just received a communication from THREE UK saying they are running final testing before deploying the update for us. I know people have flashed the stock firmware and have already updated to Pie, this is for those who haven't and are still waiting. By the way, just to add, if you want to run good games one your phone, download Dolphin Emulator, just tried it and it runs games like Splinter Cell and Resident Evil Zero on your Razer 2

Just to let you know, I found this article on the interweb which describes the process of an update being rolled out. It does state that if a carrier wants extra features included in the update, this takes extra time and testing, so that gels with the response I got from the support guys. I am leaning towards trusting the response I got from this
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.xda-developers.com/how-android-software-update-sony/amp/
Rolling out NOW! Just checked for the update through the settings and it's available.
Downloading immediately!
Update is indeed live now
Could anyone post the system update changelog for me?
Heya Guys and gals,
Get mashing that update button cuz its live and available I hope my updates and communications have been helpful over the past few weeks. Enjoy and LLAP. Lets hope it works flawlessly
All installed this end. No issues to report! At long last!!!
