Hi All,
I have a Titan and I loved WP7 and the PPC too, I'm coming from HD2 with WM6.5.
Here what I'm missing on WP7 and I had on WM6.5:
- categories: the categories of outlook are not syncronized (I could on WM6.5)
- phone-numbers: NOT all the type of phone number of a contact of Outlook are present on WP7.5, so if I have a contact with a radiomobile number, this is not present in the contact on my smartphone (WM6.5 had ALL the contact's fields of outlook)
- mail exchange: I can not insert my "not working hours" when I do NOT want mail are syncronized. On WM6.5 I could set whaen I want it to work automatically (working hours) or manually (not working/holidays hours - i.e. night, saturday sunday)
All these things are incredible if you think that this smartphone should be the best for Office365 (and exchange of course)
I hope things will be better with Tango or WP7.8 or WP8...
BYE

As for the performance and speed, Iphone is good.The looks also is fantastic and stylish.If you are a music lover, the ipod function w/ builtin 8gb or 4 gb storage is good enough to play your favorite songs for long time. Touch & scrolling is fantastic. So for me iphone is a simple phone, ipod & very less PDA function. Why? a lot of us is using Windows Mobile since we have PC mobile. Iphone is a OS X system, a system based from MAC OS. You can count the program that iphone have that you use before. I need Isilo but this program cant run to Iphone. The only advantage I can see is the safari browser & youtube. If you are on the wifi, browsing thru ur iphone is superb. That's it. The only main thing here is the HYPE of having an Iphone. Yet I can say that it will now give you so much headache regarding bugs except to 3rdparty program that not yet really made for iphone. To be fair, Iphone is a great phone with IPOD, period ;-) Maybe after more months, we can now enjoy a lot of program on iphone that we use to enjoy in our windows mobile.
Well About XDA ATOM (Atom Pure for me) , this is one of the goodwindows mobile i've seen. This became great because of Jiggs ROM. No more words i can say, in terms of PDA function and everything, this is great PDA Phone. There are cons but as a whole package its good. In my own opinion, its better than HTC touch. IF i compare this in IPHONE, this have a better PDA function.
So the conclusion, which one you want to buy? or which one will stay on ur palm. Its up to your needs and wants. IT's UR CHOICE, both have good side.
Thats why i have both;-) hehehe just kidding.
One of the thing about music is.. how much music can it play? I'm using Storage card, and default WMP, which gives me about 20% battery per hour. So, that is, if I have a full charge, and wanted to leave 20% of battery for the phone function, that would take me.. about 4 hours. It may be less than that because that time, I was on the train, which it gets connect/disconnect which may make it to 4.5 - 5 hours. How does the iPhone one this? Consider their 8G capacity.
However, having said, with all the functionality of WM phone, I still think the non-instant, hour-clock waiting of WM is still an issue. A lot of Palm users like to stick to Palm mainly due to the fact that Palm OS has an instant responds (most of the time).. rather than WM's short wait.

O2 XDA Flame Against Apple iPhone Comparison
http://www.iphoneworld.ca/iphone-editorials/2007/02/20/o2-xda-flame-against-apple-iphone-comparison/
o2 XDA flame compare to IPHONE...LOL how about our XDA atom? hehehe
O2 ATOM is better!
Form factor, O2 ATOM is actually smaller compared to the IPHONE; eventhough the IPHONE is alot slimmer.
O2 ATOM is pretty nice to hold once I put the black rubberized covers on it to protect it.
The cool things I like about the ATOM are -
1) Its on a platform that provides lots of apps to play with.
2) I like the fact that our ATOM has A2DP which allows for Stereo bluetooth headphones.
3) The Radio function is really nice to have.
4) Now with HTC Touch cube working on the ATOM, its for finger friendly than before and easier to navigate around apps, etc.
5) With the new HTC T9 Keypad, I can SMS without using my stylus anymore!
ATOM is a all-round champion for its price and features/functions!
The smooth IPhone graphics is overrated anyway. Plus there's alot of copy-cat apps that mimic the Iphone themes on PocketPC environment.
Plus I find the Iphone a little too long for my liking. ATOM is still nice to hold and comes with a pretty zippy processor!
Can i have Blackberry OS on Titan ?
i do know it works on touch pro.
if anyone have info please pass on.
here is the link for pro
http://www.intomobile.com/2008/12/16/htc-touch-pro-running-blackberry-os.html
Pics, please. I'm pretty sure BBOS doesn't work on any device other than a BB.
The Titan has barely enough ram to run WM much less a virtualized BB on top of WM. Interesting concept, not sure it is usefull, but interesting none the less.
i've had windows mobile forever and basically i now have an oppertunity to get the hero but keep my touch pro.
does anybody have any advice on the difference between the 2 os's?
the goods and bads of anroid compared to winmo?
The biggest difference is that multi-tasking is a little different. By default there is no list of running processes, and no way to switch between them. Instead you go back to an already open app by going through the menu and opening it like regular again.
ahm, long pressing the Home button will bring up the list of currently/last opened apps so you can switch between them
Ok, I'll give you that, it makes switching easier, but it is not a task list. Just a shortcut to some recently launched apps. If you open 7 apps, you won't be able to switch to the oldest.
If you compare stock Android (1.5) versus stock Windows Mobile 6.1 / 6.5, it'll be a close call. I think I would rather have a WinMo device then.
But the HTC interface on the Hero makes it a no-brainer for me.
But it all depends what you use your device for. If you are a heavy bluetooth user you might want to look into that first, but since I hardly ever use it I have no issues with android and loved it from the first few minutes of using it . And that was after years of Winmo-using.
But Android simply doesn't have the HUGE list of applications, tweaks and tricks that Windows Mobile has.
If I had to choose between a Touch Pro or a Hero, I'd go for a Hero. But if it was a Diamond2 / Touch Pro 2 (or maybe even a Touch HD) and I could tweak it completely with all the knowledge from cooking I had, it'll be a though choice . TouchFlo 2.6 on a Diamond2 is still a lovely combo.
Hi everyone im new to the forum and to android.
Im also a converted WinMo user, i had the touch hd running with Duttys rom and sometimes Energy rom. I enjoyed the installing of new roms etc but the biggest thing for me though was the lack of a marketplace and consequently the lack of really good apps that compare with android.
True there is a marketplace on winmo being released soon with WM 6.5, but ive used WM 6.5 and i hated the interface. Plus there are no winmo phones i can think of that are finger friendly (all operate with pressure sensored UI's). Android has a nice UI.
The hero for me has exciting potential and i think can acoomplish great things once they get rid of the infamous lag. Plus the developers are shifting over more and more from apple (flooded) to android.

Good point - Android bluetooth is partly crippled at the moment, the API has not been finalised thus it has not been released.

The article linked here gives a reasonable accurate and concise summary of the differences between the two, including relative strengths and weaknesses. From my experiences, I'd agree with most of what the author has said.

wow thank you, but i have another related question, should i get the "my touch 3g" which from my understand is basically the htc magic and just put a hero rom on there or is it worth the extra bit of ram to get the hero?
Are you in the US? If so, bear in mind that the Hero won't work with any 3G network as yet, whereas the T-Mobile branded MyTouch 3G will at least work on the T-Mobile 3G network (assuming you're in the fairly limit coverage area!).
Personally, I would get the Hero, but if you can get a Magic with 288mb Ram, it should run the Hero run ok. As far as I'm aware, all HTC branded Magics should be ok, but I do know that some operator branded Magics (e.g. Vodafone UK) only have 192Mb Ram and therefore won't really run the Hero run acceptably.

Dave
I know a while ago there was talk of cotulla and friends getting WM6.5 to run off SD, does anyone know anything from irc or anywhere if this was completely abandoned?
would be pretty cool.
haven't heard anything, though not too up to date on the IRC stuff.
but no talk here minus that one post by cotulla.
if i may, what is on WM that android doesn't have? i don't use my phone but for a few programs (specific work things) and modding is mainly a distraction for me...but am curious how a dual-OS existence works in real life. just pondering. (now i am all about the development as well, it is bad ass to have options, but just philosophizing..if that is a word...)

well currently I have WP7 and Android dual-boot. The reason it's nice is because WP7 does have a couple games I like and just for the "fun change OS" factor. Practically speaking neither WM6.5 nor WP7 have anything really functionally better, but I miss playing "experiment 13" on WM6.5 and I also wanted to play with all of the new CHT goodies I see for fun. It's more of an enjoyment thing than any real practical need.
I dual boot between 6.5 and android.
6.5 for work when I need a solid data connection and a no nonsense browser (opera 9.7).
Android at home when I want to use the XDA app and look at pictures of cats hiding in shoes....
About 6.5 from SD.
I think it may take them some time as Wm as an OS is somewhat more awkward and tricky to tinker with than android. As far as porting it is concerned. That's what I read somewhere anyway....
Sent from my fingers to your face...
It would be great to have winmo on sd many of us could then go to nand Android having opportunity to boot winmo as alternative. For example I have my beloved gps soft on winmo...
I too think it would be great to boot Win Mo from SD. This would give poople the awsome ability to still use Win Mo after that have went NAND Andriod or WP7. I myself still use the stock Win Mo ROM as my daily and preferred OS cause it fits me better and my needs better. But if I was abale to boot Win Mo from SD I would give WP7 a try for a while. I like Andriod well enough but it is just not as functional to me plus I can running it from SD anytime I want so I see no reason to go NAND.
I do think it will take a good bet longer to achieve this ability though cause compared to Andriod Windows Mobile is a much larger OS and it is written with different code. But if anyone can do it is the Cottula and the rest of DFT.
I agree it would be nice. Actually having all the OS options on boot would be nice. Just was curious what people use in Wm that isn't available elsewhere. Cool!

To answer your queatuon it is really not that things in Win Mo are not avaliable in other OS'c but that so much comes built into Win Mo and for the functionality of it is more complete, atleast for me. Take things like internet sharingl/tethering and WiFi sharing. With Win Mo all you have to do is install the application and you are good. With Andriod you have to root the device for this and many more things. I like the full functionality of Micosoft Office compared to it on other mobile OS's. I like the feel of Win Mo too as it is more like a mobile PC or a extention of your home or office PC. Plus Win Mo is a true stand alone OS where as Andriod runs on top of Linux. Also to me Andriod feels more like a childs toy than a truly functional OS. Now I have not had but a limited amount of experience with WP7, but to me it is less functional than Andriod and more of a reversion to a some what dumb phone OS as it gives you limited capabilities and interface. That is just my opinion.
Would a sd build be with or without sense?
I agree it.Thank you for sharing, like very much
Very much down to whoever cooks the Roms. Once such a port is achieved anyone will be able to build roms so you'll get one of your choice.
If anyone can take care of this its cotulla and his crew!

Given that samsung is going to release a virtually identical phone with WP7 on it....would be good to have this phone running both the OSs...
(might be a bit of hangover from my HD2 days)
Any comments welcome( please dont make it into a fanboy slugfest)

Probably not. WP7 is closed source and porting it would be nightmare to any dev. I've seen many posts like this all over these forums and they all said the same thing. Kind of like trying to port iOS to other devices. It would infringe on patents etc.

If you look at the earliest prototype versions of WP7, it was run on the HD2. So all the drivers had been developed. It still required an awful lot of development to convert the finished HD7 to run on the HD2.

Why is it different? -_-;
Drivers for the SoC? Graphics drivers for Mali?
The HD2 runs on a very common SoC that a lot of WP7 handsets used, as it was one of the few certified for the OS at the time.
If we get a WP7 phone that uses Exynos and if the drivers are compatible MAYBE.

Genuine query:
If you want to run W7 on your phone, why did you buy an android phone in the first place? If you have a hangover from previous days, why didnt you buy another W7 phone with updated features (compared to your previous one)?
Its the same with people wanting iOS on the SGSII...why not buy an iphone?
I never did understand spending £500+ on this android phone and then asking to change the OS (when you knew it came with android anyway)

The reason why
Hi guys,
when there will be chance to switch to WM 7.5 from Android, I'll maybe do it and here is why:
I won't buy any new mobile for it's full price, as they are very often overpriced in my country. I made an operator change and I've bought SGS II on a contract for about 120 dollars (who won't buy it then? :-> ). First few weeks I was really amazed about Android, but now I feel it has the same issues as Linux.
Like it or not, I live and work in the World called Microsoft (outlook, excel, word) and cannot switch it for something else. Sadly Android doesn't support them and I think MS wouldn't port those aps since they have their own mobile OS.
In WM all those app are natively inside the system and you get storage in MS cloud. Sync mails, tasks with outlook is way much easier than on Android. So for people like me is Android fine, but missing really important features....

You need to take into consideration that it's Windows Phone 7, not Windows Mobile. It's a brand new OS that's not even been around for a year yet, unlike the old Windows Mobile that has been around for years.
Apps-wise, Windows Phone just doesn't cut it yet, and is playing a slow game of catch-up with the likes of iOS and Android.
I hear what you're saying about WM, but WP does not have that amount of support, yet.

I am fairly certain that there is an android (and btw, a linux) alternative which supports Microsoft Office formats. Outlook is just email, no problem there. for Excel and Word, Polaris Office does the job just fine.

For sure they are, but most of them didn't work well. So sometimes they didn't calculate properly or save the file such, that Microsoft Office can't reopen them. I think this is mainly MS fault, but for me is this the reason, why I will prefer native support...
Just to understand my job: I work with relatively big tables, lots of macros and sources on local network.
