Now that the Android OS is released as open-source, how long does one suspect it will take to get a version worked up for the Treo 750?
http://www.eweek.com/c/a/Mobile-and-Wireless/Google-Open-Sources-Android-on-Eve-of-G1-Launch/
Has anyone ported it? Any news?
Someone would have to have a lot of time on their hands but it would be teh most awesome thing ever...

i am looking forward to "oversized mute and speakerphone controls" !!! ...seems diff from the leaked ver, i think...
Maybe, but I'm not holding my breath on that.
I'm hoping the big delay is due to the implementation of the carousel into the today screen and similar as with the 500/centro.
Wouldn't that be nice, the states get the latest and greatest first for once
I saw this news too. Treo Central is reporting that "an internal AT&tT presentation has been posted." Follow link below...
http://www.treocentral.com/content/Stories/1384-1.htm
Of course the URL on the presentation is producing a 404 error today ... 3 days after it was supposed to be available ...

You mean the more than just the top line of those two buttons will now be visible when the Touchscreen Disabled message overlays them (when Auto-Disable Touchscreen while on call is selected)?
This is probably the only reason I would go to the trouble of "upgrading" from my "Leaked AT&T" WM6 version
Palm tech support told me today (10/21) that they have released WM6 to ATT for testing. Anyone have any idea how much longer we wait from here?
I should hope AT&T has been testing it. We've been testing WM6 for months now.
My unofficial, unscientific and uneducated guess: We'll finally get the official release sometime after yesterday.
I was talking to AT&T business customer service regarding my account. Before i got off the phone i asked a question regarding the availability of WM6 for the treo 750. He said the upgrade is out and available to all thier retail stores in effort to upgrade the existing stock of Treo 750 with WM5 to WM6 in preperation for the arrival of the new TREO 750 with WM6 included. Once the above mentioned is complied with, the upgrade for existing users will hit the perverbial shelves...
Giving Back..
jhowle
Excellent, jhowle! Thanks.
Anyone have any thoughts on how the upgrade will go for those of us with the leaked rom? Think the update will work as advertised? Or will we have to extract the cheeimg.nbh?
Not a huge deal either way. Just curious.
ladues and gent i finally gave in and went back to htc product, treo just not promising when come to updates and upgrades, so i have decide to invest my self in a new tytn II, how ever this have been a very wild adventure i am still retaining my patience with my treo 750 on ausie wm6 with att capakage.
Windows Mobile 6.1 will be formally released next week Looks official!!
Tuesday Pocket Lint reported ( http://www.pocket-lint.co.uk/news/news.phtml/13612/14636/windows-mobile-61-coming-april.phtml) that Microsoft is ready publish the latest version of Windows Mobile, time will be next week Tuesday. The Microsoft Windows Mobile team member in charge "Robbie Bach" had earlier mentioned this at the CTIA Wireless conference in Las Vegas during a keynote speech. Windows Mobile 6.1 will be the last version 6.0 release of the first major update. Earlier this year the title leaked out (http://www.boygeniusreport.com/gallery/handsets/windows-mobile-61/) showing that 6.1 might use a smoother interface than the 6.0 interface, but it is unclear if that is a smart phone only or will be related to EM Pro devices also.
Windows Mobile 6.1 is supposed to increase on the basics of improvements much like the WM5 to WM6 transition.
Next year, Microsoft is expected to follow the script Mac OS X, introduced a with a new touch-screen user interface for the Windows Mobile 7. ( http://209.85.135.104/translate_c?h...a.cn/+&hl=en&safe=off&rls=com.microsoft:en-us )
Finally I need to point out that next Tuesday is April Fool's Day, but this is only a coincidence I hope.
See the above links for the Details from MS blogs.
LOOKS official... that is a UK website. is there any news of 6.1 being released in the US? what meger searching i did proved fruitless and i was just wondering if anyone has seen nething about it
should say "released to oems" not you and me
as per the way microsoft rolls out "updates" to windows mobile, device manufacturers are responsible for porting and making updates available per device. availability is usually sorted
digit
i know this is a stupid question....im am new to this, and this is my first windows mobile phone. I have the tilt and I know its running WM6.0, is it going to be available to download for us? for free? sorry for the noob question

go to the kaiser rom development and read the wiki and yes is the answer in simple terms
yea 6.1 will be free because its a minor update only... WM7 will not be free but it doesnt release until later next year... Also, 6.1 is available in parts in some of the roms on this site... Its not worth it unless ur a fan of threaded SMS... it has nothing so important to upgrade...
I am just waiting for pointUI to come out with version 2.0

pointUI will definitly be great but as long as you end up in the "classic" applications behind I find the finger-controls more or less worthless. Therefore I really look forward to WM7. This could be a really revolutionary WM release.

plz can anyone help me
i want to know if i can install android on my palm treo 750v
I think no one is interested on porting android to our T750's anymore.
android cant be ported to the treo 750, screen resolution doesnt match any android resolution, you need at least a 400mhz processor palm has 300, and dont even mention ram, my arc has 500mb and still runs the latest version of android slow.
Hi everyone.I'm really new to this posting, but i have a major problem.I got myself a prototype of the xperia x2.It wasn't working very smooth so i did a hard reset(total wipeout).and now windows mobile 6.5 is working but no camera no nothing,no panels.so the drivers are missing.If anyone has an idea or could help me somehow please do.thank you.
There are no Xperia 2 ROM dumps available yet.
May I ask how you got your prototype?
You may have to go back to the source to get it straightened out.
X2 won't be out too soon, i guess. X1 needed also around 10 months from its announcement to its release.
Well, here in Germany some people think that it will be out with the launch of WM6.5, but this cannot be true. 6.5 comes in October and X2 isn't even listed at Amazon, yet.
I'm using the phone now it's working well,with WM 6.5,only problem is camera working only with a program(camera key not working)but everything(wifi,gps,etc)working.I'm so sorry about the hard reset it had panels and everything.I don't know, guess i'll be waiting until someone dumps a rom that i can usecan't do nothing yet.thank you anyway.AA and Xperia X2 is ok,but battery could be better (this is a prototype) so we'll see if the official version will last longer.
X2 Silver
X2 Black
848.- CHF (562.67€)
early december....
I have X2 black with silver keyboard.so no official firmware till december?I'm stuck with this prototype still full of bugs.after this stupid hard reset,no panels,no good camera.not good.but maybe i'll sell it to somebody

If you're selling, i'm interested
Just let me know
Anyone who wants the prototype make me an offer.it's for sale.i guarantee it works ok.only the drivers are missing
Note: People that have had the X1 prototype have had problem to flash them with final ROM.
Can someone walk this guy through making a ROM dump? I think we would all benefit from this, and maybe even fix some of his issues.
if he sells it to me, i will dump the rom and upload it as soon as possible...

I don't know if it'll work, but maybe try using the X1 ROM dump directions to dump your ROM?

It would be a great advancement if you could dump X2 rom

This is not true. I have had 4 different prototypes of X1i and all have updated with offical rom without any problems. I've got one till now (almost one year now).
My first smartphone was a Windows Mobile. I got my hands on an android phone very late. But it was actually fortunate as the information about how, do and don't was readily available then. After I started to use my android phone I quickly came to know about XDA because I was very much interested in trying custom ROM (stock based) than MIUI. But I was glad I bought this particular model (mido). It's been 4 years since then but I still have my first android phone up and running smoothly powered by LOS 18.1.
I am thankful for the hard work that all the developers put in bringing so much to masses for free.
