Cooking with Windows 7?? - Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development

This maybe jumping the gun a bit, but is anyone going to be cooking roms with Windows 7 anytime soon? (Or at least a beta version)

What makes you think that cooking does not work in Windows 7?

id happily test an early release
a man can dream can't he...
maybe later this year?

Re-openned thread. Thought we were talking about WM7 not Win 7.
Cooking on Win 7 is no different to vista to xp.

tbh I dont see wm 7 being out (even in beta) any time soon. Microsoft haven't even finished 6.5 yet!!
All the images that are on google are (imo) design images created to show what it 'might' look like.
I'd love to be wrong as some of the images I've seen look freak'in sweet

I did mean WM7, just a thought that was all

So just to confirm you are talking about a chef cooking a wm7 rom and not about cooking a rom using windows 7 on your pc. Correct?
If this is the case, thread should be closed as jumping the gun way to soon. Still a long way off. I'd be surprised if this year

Thankyou Mr Falling Spartacus ;-) thats exactly what I wanted to know. Wasn't sure how far off Windows Mobile 7 Roms were. But I may have a play with a 6.5 rom though.......

lol in the end he did mean WM7
Sorry Dave, you know why

my guess is he eats microSDHC cards for breakfast...
Just an educated guess tho
I think itje do more job in one week, than all microsoft team (who creates windows mobile) in one month
A big respect for him.
LOL if I remember seeing correctly, itje had to take the rom down because of MS copyright or just complaints...Still looking forward to it tho man
No offence, but I'd rather Itje perfected Touch-IT Landscape v4.0 first.
Once that's been tweaked to his satisfaction, and he's had time to catch up with his life, THEN it may be worth asking him if he'll do a ROM based on WM6.5. Personally, I think I'll be happier with a streamlined TouchFlo3D interface than the honeycomb and today screen WM6.5 uses.
I am NOT working on a release to any 6.5 at this rom at the moment.
My only priority now is v4...
I did cook it for personal review, but it is still not worth the effort on posting it.
I will neither respond to any PM or email from ppl wanting to test it.
itje....close this post. And the users of this forum will not confuse...

so u saying it makes not sence to try it yet?
That's exactly what he's saying.
Right now, everyone is using unofficial beta releases of WM6.5 to try it out and it isn't exactly ready for everyday use YET. That's also why MS has been asking XDA-Dev to close threads relating to WM6.5 ROMs.
If you hold fire for a few months, you may find that HTC and other manufacturers may update their phone's ROMs towards the end of the year.

Htc Dream with Windows Mobile?

Hi,
I was looking for this topic on google, and later on Xda forum but I found nothing. From many years I was working with Windows Mobile, and now my friend asked me to instal Windows on his Htc Dream and I was totaly schocked, when I realise that nobody wanted to change Android to Windows Mobile.
Is there any way to do it? Or can you give me any links to [ROM] Windows Mobile 6.1/6.5 for Htc Dream
Thanks for help!
use the search function its been asked before, as far as i remember, no one cares to make a port because why put a bad OS on a phone with a good OS?
It might be possible to port it from the Leo(Not out yet) since it has a capacitive screen. But we would still have to fix the rom to fit the screen size and the drivers and such so it might not even come.
I am glad someone else has posted this, last week i was looking for some info on this and noticed all of the WinMo threads were closed.
I am hoping that WinMo makes it to the G1, i plan on buying a Cliq when they are released so the G1 is going to be a play/spare phone and it would be cool to play around with Winmo 6.5 and whatnot. I know a lot of people said WinMo sucks, but on decent hardware like the G1 it should be better.
Also as i was looking around dba.net i noticed a lot of the new HTC WinMo phones have the same chipset, CPU and whatnot. Hopefully this will make porting it a lot easier for some cooks and we will see WinMo on the Dream hardware sometime in the near future =)
While we're at it why don't we put the iphone os on the G1 too.
Maybe not iPhone software, I think Symbian S60 is better
But let's back, is there anyone on the earth who has already cooked this rom or it's only hoping that after a lot of time there will be a person, who will answer on our requests and make rom for g1??

Well I know you couldn't tell but I was being sarcastic with the iphone os. And people got the G1 to have android and not windows mobile. I doubt anyone will ever build a windows mobile rom for the g1. So don't hold your breath.

he's been spending too much time with codani
P.S. I cooked my own WM6.1 ROM when I had a Kaiser. Now that I have a G1 I have absolutely no interest is seeing WM again.

I've been doin my best to bash him for it. But I think he finally got frustrated enought. Think he's waitin on the sholes now.
hehe I know, I really hope HTC announces a successor to the G1 soon cause I really don't like moto.

Yessir me too. Plus you just won't have the support for moto like you do with htc.
You're shocked that nobody would want to put GARBAGE in place of GOLD?
If you want GARBAGE, why buy a PREMIUM SMARTPHONE?

A swear there's a thread like this every week. If only we could implement a function in the dream forum to disallow thread titles with windows and mobile in them

I second that motion.

It would be too hard anyway. I doubt the experienced devs for android are gonna spend time rewritting the drivers and going all out of their way for winmo. They would probably much rather work on making their android roms better

OK, but when they pass case that Android isn't the best OS they could have, they want to change it for another OS, exactly for Windows Mobile. And now they havn't any possibility to do it.
Maybe for some of them Android is the BEST OS, but not for all.
So topic has ended. Ok, I see that all of you affirm Android is the best thing which was made for this smartphone.
But I will be thankful, when someone cooks Windows Rom for G1.
the g1 is only one of the army of android phones .. the statements you made is said by members who have not really fully experienced android , I loved w_mobile over the iphone , but then android came along , so i filed for a divorce ,, now I fully support android .,..,
android= most complete, refined mobile os. period. and i have an iphone too. it sucks. least flexible mobile os ever. even with jailbreak
only thing good about it is that there's a crapload of fart apps.
I wouldn't say that Android is complete..... there are still a lot of things to be implemented.
However, Android is handsdown the best MobileOS thanks to the 3rd party community

Windows Mobile 6.5 ROMS

I just want peoples onpinions on why it is good to switch to Windows Mobile 6.5 ROMS with manilla 2.5? why not stay with Windows Mobile 6.1?

it's just my own personal choice buddy!
10, 9, 8 ......
Countdown to this thread being locked. These types of questions go nowhere. Everyone has their own opinions. Try one and see for yourself. If you do not like it go back. For me to tell you it's "great this" and "fantastic that" does not prove anything as the next person may say it is terrible and 6.1 is best blah blah blah. So how does that help you to decide?

I want to say only one thing - I agree with ClydeB1, YOU HAVE TO TRY. Yes, WM 6.5 with Sence 2.5 seems to be slower than WM6.1, HOWEVER it gives you many new and nice features etc...

Think above posts have said enough on this matter. Its a personal preference. Just try yourself and make your own decision.

Also, can't we update the CE of X1...just asking, i don't know the technicality...

Circle': The general thought is that Microsoft has a two-tiered strategy: WM7 for the masses, but still supporting WM 6.x for business-type users. I suspect that we will continue to see WM 6.x and above ROMs leaked here. My guess is that MS will continue to polish the UI and increase finger friendliness.

Sexist?
Dayum your an idiot.
@circle: Call Microsoft also Google is your friend.
@Lunie, don't feel offended
@thread starter: I don't get your message. There wont be any cooked winMo 7 for x1, thats for sure. And right now we're not doing anything else than you suggested: using the most up to date wm 6.5 (6.6 - 6.7). What about it?

Supporting WM6.x does not mean continued development. Support in the sense that MS supported XP after Vista. <insert Vista Rant in another thread>
Let's consider Windows Mobile out to pasture. It was fun while it lasted, but now it's time to move on. If they could make WM any more modern they would have done so by now.

Unhappy with HD7 and Windows 7

Hi,
I'm sure we all are mighty upset with the creators of Windows 7 Phone.
After loving windows mobile for some years the new variant of the software for my beloved PDA manufacturer just doesn’t cut the mustard.
To all the developers out there is there a way of using this fantastic piece of hardware with an alternative OS, Android or WM6.5.
I have to say I’m so glad this phone comes with the job, as I won’t be sorry to see it go.
Buy an HD2, you'll have an HD7 with windows 6.5
I'm glad mine comes with WP7 though
be patient. give the devs some time. your favorite software will come to wp7 soon.
Please stop with those kind of thread and stop to post them in development section.
Closed and moved.
