Hi,
I have a Toshiba Portege G910. I purchased this PPC to replace my HTC Universal.
The size, VGA screen and the clamshell layout is what I really like of this phone. However....the Toshiba romis really %^&%%$#.
I am hoping that someone somewhere developed a new and better rom for this machine. (preferably even WM6.1). Does someone have an improved rom, or would someone be prepared to develope this for me and ALL the other Portege users who really dislike the current ROM on their machine.
Thanks!!

Hi, would it be possible to buy the HD7 (Trophy) and change the rom to WM6,5?
I like the phone and its size but my company's email software and some other softwares are not WM7 compatible. Is it possible to install WM6.5 onto the Trophy or should I just get an older phone (probably HD2)?...
Get an older phone if you want to use 6.5.
trade me, i've got a brand new, never used hd2 . j/j, i hate at$t.
HD7 with WinMo 6.5 is HD2
ha ha ha ha ha
sorry
this is really funny
get a new/reconditioned HD2 on email for around £250 in UK
Fundamentally incompatible

The hardware of the hd7 and the hd2 are almost identical, but the hd2 is actually better. It has a removable sd slot also.
The HD2 had to be redesigned because the Windows phone 7 OS is actually a silverlight runtime environment and needed different hardware and that means different drivers. There is currently no way to use the hardware on the hd7 with wm6.5.
I assume you ask this because you want the flexibility of third party apps...
I just went and downloaded Microsoft Expressions Blend 4 and started to write my own apps for my phone
Just get yourself an HD2...same performance

Thanks
Super thanks to all of you!
I hoped to get an answer that I can install WM6.5 until there are some apps available for WM7 from my company. And then reinstall WM7. I guess it is not that easy... I will get the HD2 then...
Thank you for all the answers

What exactly are you asking? HTC 7 Pro?
The HTC HD7 is a windows mobile phone (Windows Mobile 7) it's really the HD3, but htc jumped to 7 to keep the number synonymous with WM7.... to avoid confusion, although people are still confused. Here's an easy way to look at it;
htc HD2 ---> WM6.5 OS
htc HD7 ---> WM7 (sometimes referred to as Windows Phone 7) OS
Seems you are confused a little..there is no Windows Mobile 7, there is Windows Phone and Windows Mobile..and that ended with 6.5.
But there is no other modern hardware with full keyboard..so the 7 Pro needs Windows Mobile.
When someone buys a Win 7 phone and wants to install 6.5 to get productivity then I really think MS have a major problem or the guy who started this thread is having a lend of us.
I would love to have 6.5.x on my HD7 dual boot
there are a lot of apps available for 6.5.x including multiple browsers copy and paste that i could use while we wait for wp7 to grow in functionality. At this point it would be ideal to be able to dual boot with 6.5.x and wp7, I could do things I need to do on 6.5 and then go back wp7 for the most part.
Are there any news about WM 6.5 ROM for the HD7? I have so many apps for 6.5 with no eqivalent in WM7. It would be great to have WM 6.5 on the HD7. I like the feeled speed compared to the HD2 and it feels easier to swipe with the finger, it have a faster response...

The HD7 feels faster because it runs WP7. Its processor runs at the same speed as the HD2's. The HD2 feels slower because WM6.5 is a big bag of smelly animal poo.
First of all there is no such thing as WM7, it was aborted in favour of WP7 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Mobile).
I suggest posting in the WP7 Rom development section your requests rather than here. Considering XDA-Devs is working on craking WP7 itself and when that happens possibly Android, I think the dead OS Windows Mobile will be low down on their list.
I also think dual booting is not all what it's made out to be! I dual-boot my HD2 to Android, and no longer use WM6.5. Why you ask? Well WM 6.5 is dead, most of the services (if not all) for WM6 are available on Android.
If you really must have Windows Mobile, best option is to get a HD2, it has very good support for WM, much better than any fudgeware that could be put on the HD7.
I have my HD7, my old HD2 still uses copilot and now a few apps only found in the Android market. I purchased a simple Pay as you go SIM to keep that phone alive.
I hope its possible soon..the HTC 7 Pro is on the market soon..and there is no alternative to it...
Give me strength!!!!!
What planet are you guys on? MS has switched development to WP7 and are not likley to support WM6 (maybe something in the numbering may give the game away here [sarcasm])
No matter how good the guys at XDA are, they are not going to crack WP7 overnight, it took them over 2 months to crack HD2 last year and that was on technology that didn't differ too much from WM6.1. WP7 is from the ground up.
As for the HD 7 Pro, it will come with WP7, nor Fairy phone 6 or anything else. And guess what? It's not even released yet so no point in asking people to crack it before it's been released.

Can one of the Mods close this useless thread or move it over to the HD7 Dev thread so all the Devs can laugh at it?
win mobile 6.5 on htc hd7
In reality, this requirement is due to the fact that many programs such as ACR (audio call recorder) and many other contacts backup is not running on win mobile 7. That's why I consider it important to install win 6.5 on hd7, at least temporarily.
thanks

At the moment you can't, it may be possible in the future. My advise is sell the HD7 and get an HD2, then you can have WM6.5, WP7 or Android.

You can't do it period. Windows Phone 7 is nothing like Windows Mobile 6.5.
End of thread.
you cant do it yet!
was half tempted to see if you'd swap your HD7 for my HD2 but i think i'll hold off
WM is a cracking os tho, not pretty and not slick but its a beast an can do pretty much anything you want, it would be good even if someone could get magldr on here and then get WM booting of an SD....
ah well, one can dream.

Some one has created the RSPL, DFT or something... maybe they can offer you the RSPL and u can load the HD2 WM6.5 on your HD7....
Will HD2's win 6.5 rom work on hd 7?
If I have hd2's win 6.5 rom, is there anyway I can install it on HD7?
My HD7 is unlocked from T-mobile.
I can go into bootloader and it says it's unlocked.
I really need help as I like 6.5 more than 7.0
Also, can I makeup a backup of my 7.0 rom before I put 6.5 on it?
Thanks,
Avi
Why wont anyone listen in this thread?!?!?! You CANNOT put WM6.5 on the HD7 at this time period.
Perhaps as the development for the HD7 grows then MAYBE there could be a way to dualboot but until then it is IMPOSSIBLE.
Are you sure you want to go back to a stylus? Or a half stylus / half finger os... What I really miss from WM6.x, 6.5 is the Tomtom, Garmin Navigation Software... I guess is a matter of time until we get useful apps on WP7... But anyway, I really understand your desire... we might see some 6.5 roms in the near future as soon as the developers at xda.cn give some info away...

Jesus! how cheap are WM6.5 devices nowadays JUST BUY ONE

You may want to check the ROM development section for the diamond, e.g. this thread:

As the Diamond goes, the DIAM100 is unfortunately the inferior model. If you can get your hands on a solid DIAM500 model (the improved CDMA unit), you can do a lot more, and they can be had on eBay for around $30 which gets you a decent smartphone that is great for prepaid (or postpaid) plans.
Just watch out for blacklisted ESNs, and you'll be good.

Hi everybody
as probably even rocks know, cotulla joined htc one development, and he wrote that probably one of his goals is to port WM6.5 on htc one. Can anyone please explain me what benefits could give this porting?
I know windows mobile, I used it since WM6.1 and I had sony ericcson xperia x1 and htc hd2. I loved some of its aspects..but isn't it a little outdated to be used nowdays? (bad graphics and fluidity, no pinch to zoom and almost NO updated apps because even the marketplace is closed..)
Why not? You had the HD2. They ported over every version of Android, Windows 95, Windows 98, Linux, Ubuntu, etc.
May even give devs the chance to learn more about the infrastructure of the One if they can manage to get other OS's to run on it.

Yeah but a thing that I noticed with hd2 that (beyond WM6.5) "only" android and windows phone 7 could be used as a daily roms..the ther OSs were quite an experiment. I mean...for a "normal" user, what could offer Windows Mobile on htc one?
I can't understand if there's the possibility to "rewrite" windows mobile to make it daily adoptable for common users, or it's an "experiment" useful for developers
I think wm6.5 is base of wp7.
wm6.5 may be functionally worked as 'root' of wp7 and 8. Also, Cotulla worked with wm6.5 hd2 at first. It is just starting of cotulla's legend...
