Hello!
I have HTC EVO 3D GSM VERSION(bought in Bulgaria)
I want to use GARMIN, but it is not supported from Android, so please tell me how i can install Android + Windows Mobile on my phone, so when i want to be able to switch on WIN to use GARMIN, then to get back to Android.
What is the best way this to be done, and the way it will switch faster?
Also please give me links to Windows Mobile and Android version that will work fine on this phone(of course latest versions maybe are better)
Thanks

Will not work.
why not?
whats that: http://pocketnow.com/tweaks-hacks/how-to-dual-boot-windows-mobile-and-android ?
That's to boot Android onto a Windows Mobile device, not WM onto an Android device.
are you sure that there dont have any way to do that ?
i really want to have GARMIN on my phone

I think it has to do with the fact that Android is open source, so you can put it on anything if you try hard enough. Windows Mobile, however, is not open source, making it a lot more difficult.
There are tons of apps by Garmin in the Android market. None of those will work for you?
i want GARMIN MOBILE XT(if i am right)
i want the GARMIN NAVIGATION system, like in the GPS navigators which are sold
i am using iGo now, but i prefer garmin
Well, unfortunately, it looks like you're out of luck, since I doubt you'll see Windows Mobile ported to the 3D.
The best option I can offer you is to just use Google Maps Navigation, if it's available in your country.
it could be done. but it would take a lot of time to get it fully functional. you are talking about basically building everything from scratch, having a dedicated partition for it in your system (or maybe your sd card), modifying your boot loader to give you the option to boot into either one (but you would probably have to create a new bootloader to be honest), making drivers, completely new code. i mean seriously it is building a rom completely from scratch. creating new firmware, software... faurk. brah.
i would rather just go buy a windows phone, but on the other hand, i wouldn't, because i think they are utter garbage.

Yes, it could be, but that would be EXTREMELY hard. It would be 1000x easier for someone to just port the app on android, although that would also be kind of hard.

Since Android is Linux based and Ubuntu is a version of Linux, that makes it a lot easier than porting an completely different OS, unfortunately.

Well yes, they both both use a linux kernel; but i think it also has something to do with ubuntu being open source. Windows mobile is not open source and it would actually be illegal to port it to our device w/o paying M$ wouldn't it?

At a guess I'd say not as the specs call for a capacitive four point multitouch screen...
TG02 was announced at MWC with just such a screen...
Yes. There is nothing in Windows Mobile 7 (Or whatever its supposed to be called) that is radically advanced that the TG01 can't support it. Multi-touch capacitive screens won't be neccesary as phones in asia are better with resistive.
Aside from this, the specs of the TG01 are good enough. It has enough ram and enough CPU power to run any mobile OS. It's a question of simply being available. Tosh might force us to upgrade to the TG02 Better not do because if they did, then it doesn't reflect very well on their support! I don't see the point in 6.5.3, is there any major improvements on it!?
What are the hardware specifications Microsoft is laying out for OEMs?
Woodman: We will provide the OS primarily to software developers in March. Every 7 Series device will have a Qualcomm chip. It will be touch-based. There won't be any non-touch, but that's not saying there won't be any keyboard devices, so they will all be touch and capacitive. There is a single aspect ratio. It will have Wi-Fi and GPS and other services which we will talk about soon.
- There wasn't anything about multi-touch though and other than zooming in, I dont see how multi touch is useful either, even then, how many people like to operate their phones with one hand....
no hope even the best phone in the market hd2 will not get it
HD2 will have it... even if it is not the best phone
I am not able to download (I can't connect to ineedfile.com) so I don't know if it is for real...

Erm...Before that, you have understand theme an operating system is totally different with running an operating system....and it is not easy as you think...
Developers need to re-write every code,obtain drivers and etc...it may take months or years...such as the android porting project...
Thanks, but do you know if there are any people out there that have started building a rom?
Port an OS is hard, re-code driver etc, Android was "easy" cause it's an open source, but iOS is not !
Also, there is only 4 iPhone with a totaly different chipset than HD2
It's not impossible but you will never see iOS running on HD2..
bugger was looking forward to it!?
This would be great! Then we could have a camouflaged version of an iPhone for everyone around NOT TO SEE! Which is what I want... An iPhone without anyone knowing....
you guys think that the miraculous

if you want an iphone go buy an iphone! why r so many ppl asking for different os. get a different phone.

except it has less functionality and a duplo interface
it would be nice to have just for the fact of all the games and apps in the apple app store.
Is there an opportunity to get a port of this awesome feature?
You know, what I'm mainly talking about is this kind of taskbar at the bottom of the screen and the with this linked programs that open. This would be awesome if someone could port this or has already done this.
If it's absolutely not possible to create this it would be nice to tell me why
Thanks in advance.
It is so much possible. But it'd consist of so many mods. It's a lot of work. You need to be making a whole launcher. I've seen WM6.5 on the HD2, looked awesome, but I think we'll never see this like a 1:1 mod.
Hmm. Ok, you say it's possible!
That's a good thing.
But I personally find it so hard to believe that nobody tries to do this... Ok, as you said, it seems to be quite hard and difficult and so on, but come on... There are so many guys, android community is so big and I can't believe there is nobody willing to do that... And I mean, it's not a crappy and ugly looking mod of a buggy whatever, it looks awesome and is so functional and in my view it would be used as launcher by so many people. Even just because it's so different to the 'standard-launcher' with this 4 or 5 buttons at the bottom of the screen and the widgets.

You will not (100%) get WM on the GS2. Totally forget that idea.
If, however, you're just after Sense then just use the search button and see the suggested apps and launchers that have been discussed before. It will make the phone look very similar.

I don't want WM, just Sense of HD2.
And I already searched a bit, but there is nothing like this to find. It's always a bit different like LauncherPro where i just select different apps in this kind of switchable taskbar down there but this is nothing else like shortcuts. That's not what I'm searching for...
What you find is just Sense of Android...

There is currently no port of Sense for the GS2. There are discussions in the ROM development threads - I suggest you have a read through them to see where they are getting.

I think that is talking about the old Sense, like in the Windows Mobile era. Not the Sense port from an Android phone. Atleast that is what I make of it
- If you are talking about the Sense from Windows Mobile, no probably not.
- If you are talking about the Sense skin in Android, probably yes, you just need to have patience.

Of course I'm only talking about Sense of Windows Mobile (Sense of HTC HD2!).
I looked it up, everyone else is talking about Sense of an Android based device by HTC, but that's not what I'm looking for.
Why is that?
theres a such thing as theming and doing a custom ui and doing it in the style of old sence/manilla could be possible but as a direct port,its a no
So I don't know if 'port' is something special again, what I want is that it looks like on HD2 and has the same functions, not just shortcut-like.
But I thought 'port' would fit for that then.

Do you know how many people here are working on other stuff already? I think that no one will make a working android copy of the WM6.5 Sense interface. And nobody is willing to, it's too much work. They can't simply port it, they need to rebuild everything from scratch.
I indeed say its possible, but I am sure it will not happen.

But as I already said, Android comunity is so big and hmm... I don't know, somehow I can't imagine that there are no other 'fanboys' of Sense of WM like me

Maybe I'm wrong but try to think about the partitions and the language like:
For the same reason that you can run java apps on Windows, you can run Android on Windows Phone(Please correct me if I'm wrong)
And the partitions in android are spread all over, system, data, cache... On windows it's one partition(Please correct me ), like a HDD
This is what i think, I have no experience with WP
I mean to say running windows phone OS from boot not by using emulator
HTC HD2 is an example for it u can google it.....
Is an interesting question. According to this wikipedia page on snapdragon "en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snapdragon_(system_on_chip)" Nokia Lumia 700 and 800 both us the same MSM8255 soc as the SK17
Would it be more of a problem of getting it to boot in the first place (bootloader). Not that I would have a clue where to start but "when there's a will there's a way, and there's always an f'ing way!"
Yes my friend I knew about hardware thats the reason I was asking the question......
It is possible.....

Windows is closed-source, so, unlike Android you cant get it freely, install it and mod it. Only feasible way (IMO) would be for someone to crack it and install it on device with the same hardware platform as W7 phone
i hope too, maybe not windows 7, windows 8 is better for mobile :good:

You better use "Launcher 7" by play store.
I had my hands on both WP7 and iPhone... and i cant believe anyone in their right mind would dare to compare them to Android... Android is far superior in oh so many ways... But, unlike iPhone, i think there may yet be hope for WP8 (closed-source but not for close-minded folk like iPhone) (i now expect to be stoned by apple fanboys, since i dared to offend their perfect devices xD)
Speaking of porting WP7 to Android device, i dont think that would be legal, so dont expect to see it on these forums... But another question comes to mind is, why would you even do that ? Even if you're ex-WP7 users, give android a chance, i'm sure you'll like it once you get to know it
To give android chance thats the reason I bought mini pro
But as we can apple has lost there visionary. . .
iOS is not that much interesting now. . .
Steve jobs was such a great visionary. . .
Let me tell u guys a story that I read from his biography
Person came to him and shows iPod to him and told him that this is the smallest I can make. . .
Steve jobs simply throw that iPod in water and told him u can see the bubbles coming out of iPod that means it can be made smaller. . . . .

Wrong. Ubuntu Phone has the same codebase as Ubuntu on the Cloud, Ubuntu Desktop, Ubuntu on the Nexus 7 etc. That's the whole point. There is just one Operarting System. You can dock any phone for best experience 2 GB RAM and a quad-core ARM CPU is simply recommended.
They demoed the desktop convergence on a phone with the same hardware as the Galaxy Nexus long ago.
I don't really know why they are. It sounds pretty cool at first, but I usually don't bring a desktop monitor around with me, and I do most of my work on my desktop. I don't want 2 full desktop computers.. I think it causes two problems instead of eliminating one.

They've shoved Linux on phones before there's nothing new about it.

I can understand these ideas for the consumer world, but the business world is becoming more and more demanding of this type of technology. Microsoft built W8 and now CIO's can look more closely at mobile/byod options. Canonical just slam-dunked their way into that arena with the Ubuntu phone.
How many iOS or Android data centers have you ever heard of? That would be news to me! The business world is run by MS or some form of Linux. I've seen Red Hat, Suse, and Ubuntu. . . add Ubuntu for phones and now you have the ability to narrow the number of systems management panes to a level competing directly with MS.
I think this rocks!

I agree.. and I think that it sounds like a fun concept, too. But how many times have you lost your phone/had it stolen?
Now compare that to how many times you lost your work computer. I don't want to lose all my work. You know what fixes that? Something we call "Syncing", yet canonical thinks it's the very thing that needs to be "solved" yet it's still unavoidable.. Also, most companies lock their computers down to prevent misuse. It would be pretty hard to lock down your phone as many exploits/hacks can unlock a boot loader
and you could flash a new OS onto it.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
But then again, I've never really been fond of Ubuntu since unity, it's changed them.. So maybe I'm just biased.

Personally, I keep my phone on my person 24/7. Never lost it, and the one time I had a phone stolen it was because I left it in my jacket but took it off. If you keep it in either your pocket or your hands, then there's no way you can lose it.
As for locking the phone down, who's to say you can't lock a phone down as securely as a computer? It's not like you can't plug computers into other devices as well. It's not that phones can't be as secure as a computer, it's just that they generally aren't. That's not to say that no-one could come in and fix that.
