MEEGO
ANDROID 3.0
IOS 5
SYMBIAN 4
SAMSUNG WAVE
WINDOWS PHONE 7
last but not least BLACKBERRY OS

ummm.... MEEGO and um... Android 3 and ummm... IOS5 (not for iphone ipad ) and umm let me think ... Symbian 4 and umm.. Samsungwave (you mean bada os) and Windows 7 oh yep and blackberry

THIS WAS FAKE.
Google more next time :$
reminds me of the good old times when linux was announced to run on the P3300 / artemis - at first everybogy dumped it for a hoax, a couple of weeks later a bootable and usable version was on my machine - mind you, telephone not working...
Iphone OS is possible on Touch HD i think
hi Guys
i think this is a great idea and i dont think it is impossible..might just be a lot of work though.. wish i could help do it.. have friends with iphone and would luv to port it to my touch HD.
heres my ideas.
in essence Iphone OS is linux .. correct? unless immistaken it has its roots in Linux and we already have Android running on a touch HD what would be the difference in the code between Android and iphone OS.. can someone perhaps look into this
i would luv to get some feedback from other users see if it is possible..
thank you

why would you want to dumb down winMo is the question. The iphone hardware is so bad that if you're going windows mobile you should buy an HD or something with decent hardware.

When God was handing out brains you must have thought it was chocolate milk shake and asked for an extra thick one
This would be just as useful as ice in the Antarctic. Just buy an Iphone, if you want to have its os, as the devices are quite similiar (at least the dimensions).
HTC TRouch HD vs iPhone
I think it would be a good idea. Imagine ending the eternal "my phone is best" -battle showing the capabilities of the touch hd!
Come on guys!

Apple base OSX on FreeBSD so I'm guessing the Iphone os is too

if you want IPHONE look/OS please buy that cheap phone! the only good think in iphone is the interface and the music player
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha !!!!!!!!!!!
his is the biggest bull**** I have heard what
why buy HD if you like the iPhone?
otherwise buys iPhone and keeps the HD, as you can make its
a switch between the two ....
Best allround solution I think:
Don't 'copy', 'clone' or 'port' the OS X as a whole. Instead, take aspects of it say ... I dunno ... user-friendliness and adapt it into what Windows Mobile does best. So instead of using a dead ugly IE 6 checkbox on your application (it's depressing to see when I'm using manilla or 6.5 today) use a nice image or bloody skin the thing.
Apple has always had it's sex-appeal over Windows (objectively speaking) BUT Windows has always found a way to kick it were it hurts and still impress. Sadly I don't think the mobile war is moving quick enough on out end so lets give them a helping hand rather than jump ship!

you certain bout that? actually, osx is the os from the flopped NEXT system that steve jobs came up with more than a decade ago, and osx, even though its had some face lifts, and iphone os and apps are still coded in Objective-C, a long dead language that predates C++. it isnt even really object oriented. not deep down at the core anyway. its regular C wrapped in some pityfull object oriention extention. anyway, freebsd wasnt around when the next system or objective-c were developed, so that theory is a no-go.. sorry...
i for one would like to see winmo ported to the iphone hardware, but who would write the drivers? not apple, i assure you, but it would be fun!
on another note, from time to time, i pass off my hd as a new prototype iphone black, or the iBlack. put an apple icon as your start icon, go with a black theme, and watch those media-head teenagers drool... its worth every penny hahahaha....

As far as I know, OSX (and iPhone OS) is based on Darwin, a full open-source FreeBSD derivative developed by Apple... And I guess that Objective-C was chosed for "application developers" to ease the porting of pre-OSX apps to the new OS. And of course, because it seems that using a language no other one uses must be "iCool"
+1 why one earth would someone want to poison HD with such bad OS?
Yes it has fluid graphics and chicks like it, but it sucks at everything else!
Buy SPB mobile shell and make it look like iphone if you so much want it + it is 100x better.
New version 3 is nice competition for even touchflo 3 and x1 panels!
im all for the Touch HD that is why i got myself it and not the iphone... looks much nicer in terms of screen and feel.. much better.. i just want to get OSx on there to proof to someone that the WM platform is much better than apples because you can do ANY thing with it.. even port your competitions OS to it
so its more getting bragging rights than anything else.. i agree that we need to get WM to a point where it can compete with Iphone in a way.. Touch HD doesnt have any hardware keys anymore.. but the OS not completely finger friendly like Iphone.. much to learn from Apple in that regard.. WM is going to have to shape up..
one other thing.. how amazing wont the Apple OS look on the AWESOME HD screen .
other point WM lacks in a lot of software that the iphone has.. not saying i would use everything on the market.. but its kinda nice having the option.. and not seeing something cool on the iphone and then wondering.. hey where is the WM version.. so either the developers need to wakeup and develop for WM and Iphone or we need to port the OS to the HD.. or i need to get an iphone latter option not really an option .. i wont go to the darkside
To support the different hardware one need to write a HAL and so forth. Not a job feasible for individuals (Time, man power and money). Besides this IMAO why would one like to poison such a beautiful device..
The iphone OS is a severly locked down piece of [email protected] in my opinion. You can't change anything, you are in jail with it. The apps are a joke, I never saw such useless applications. The only good thing the OS has is a good on screen keyboard and good web browsing capabilities. Besides that it's garbage. There has been allot of progress with the Windows mobile OS and I think we are getting close to having everything we need/want (allot of good apps, good web browsing and good on screen keyboard). Just my opinion. I used the Iphone 3g for several months. I have a brand new one sitting inside the box sealed that apple replaced for me. BTW, if anybody wants it it's for sale (Black Iphone3G 16GB). Just my opinion.

[POLL][PORT] Maemo 5

Hello,
Is anyone down for a Maemo 5 port to the Rhodium? I think it is a good idea, but it is depended on developers. So I want to check the animo for it.
Maemo is a Debian based Linux OS for Mobiles, the Nokia N900 runs it. Because 80% of the linux program's can be ported to Maemo, there are many MANY apps availeble.
There's one problem, we need developers that I'm not.

PS: Excuse my bad English
It would be nice just to show the power of the touch pro 2 cause i hate the fact they sweat the iphone so much it makes me sick i love my touch pro 2 and to show others all it can do will prove me right

Wow, how many smartphone OS's do we need?

What ever happened to just WinMo and Blackberry and Symbian?
We now have
Windows Mobile
Windows Phone Series 7
Android
WebOS
Bada
LG are developing there own
S-Class (sort of counts?)
iPhone OS
Motorola are developing there own
Symbian s60
Maemo
Blackberry OS
I know more choice is usually a better thing, but surely there is a limit?
Agree, this is way too many! Some will not succeed or will be combined in the next few years.
Don't forget about Brew Mobile by Qualcomm
There is a big difference between Smart OS and other Regular OS`s that intended to be for feature phones , such as Brew, S40 Nokia feature phones platform .. I personally dont think its right to classify Beda OS as smart OS .. but anyway samsung is using the "Smart" word more that any other company.
Btw LG announced they are not planning to build an OS.
Its good to have variety of choices plus it bring up new stuff .. look how amazing webOS is,how stable iPhone OS is .. and hey .. seems like android is capable of putting the best of all out there ..
anyway .. in time the bad OSes will die and disappear the good ones only would make it and stay

Have you seen the spec on the Bada OS phone? Cetainly seems like a smartphone to me!
But I agree with Brew and s40 not really counting - they're aimed at more budget phones.
Nevertheless do we need 6+ options?
samsung are making their own linux based os too
and nokia and intel are merging their linux based into 1 I read
wow you completely forgot blackberry the king of messaging i mean i know it actually sucks at web browsing but i mean when i start using my berry loads i type faster on that i can on my computer. i gotta say i do like iphone os and winmo. but i recon im gonna go android from now on i've used symbian it suck used blackberry and i hate the ui ( love the messaging and the intergration with facebook i mean us winmo guys get sent an email and have to reply to that but with blackberry the email comes thru but appears as a facebook notification in your messages if you open it it instantly opens the facebook app and takes you to that message photo or status) i like iphone just wish it was more customisable (dad has an iphone and loves everything except the fact you can't change stuff as easily such as battery light from the home screen) i'm using winmo and its bearable due to the fact that sense ui is amazing. but android is the way forward. but in response i feel we probably need about 4 each for diffrent people iphone for anyone android for anyone who hates apple (or realised its actually better than iphone) blackberry for people who need amazing messaging and winmo 7 for thoose windows fan boys

Its not that big in the U.K you get the odd one or two, but there certainly not mass market. Although they have done a recent (ongoing) ad campaign on the TV.
But yeah, I completely forgot Blackberry OS.
Don't forget the new MeeGo OS too! What OS are Moto developing?

Dont know, I think its only in its initial stages. Theres just been posts on various blogs about it. Not too sure weather or not its true.
Hadn't realized we had so many "sorta" working phone O/S'es out there. The company that makes an O/S that works bug-free out-of-the-box will cash in big. To steal a famous quote:
"One O/S to rule them all and in the darkness bind them."
What I'd like to see:
From Android:
Android Phone OS - Android basic OS for phones
AndroidMB - Android mobile business. Google needs to focus on the business market that doesn't strive for a hippie company that lets their entire staff come outside for the passing of Street View vehicles
From Apple:
iPhoneOS
MMB - Mac Mobile Business
From Microsoft
Windows Phone
Windows Mobile Business
I want a business phone that is as close as possible to a mobile computer. Not some interface that makes it fast for me to make a couple quick swipes with my finger to show someone a YouTube video. I understand that it's where the market is going, but there's a lot more contract money in business. Microsoft knows this. Everyone else needs to join the bandwagon. Microsoft can't forget this.

Wow. Just Wow. This will be huge!
Personally I find more choice is better. The more competition the better things are for the user in the end run, i.e. better technology, lower prices to name a few. Yes, it can be confusing on which to choose, but would you rather we all use the same device??? Didn't think so.
Also, not are new technologies make it, look at the mini-disc as one example of a technology which was supposed to take over from the CD, but were is it now??? The same applies to phone OS.....not all will make it, but the ideas behind these technologies will be incorporated into the ones which will succeed.....again only better for the end user

[Q]can i9000 run symbian^3 or IOS 4? dualboot or something ...

[Q]can i9000 run symbian^3 or IOS 4?
by dualboot or something ...
No, but why do you want Symian when you can have Android??
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
i moved from symbian to android and i found symbian more comfortable ...and it would be fun to port symbian ^3 to our device ...

porting something less popular, and less useful, and less customisable is fun ??
Dual boot is possible, But extremely difficult. It has not been done successfully YET... and by that i mean, its not been done to the point where it is useable.
Maybe in future it could be an option, But with sooo many SGS 1 users upgrading to the SGS 2 .... i dont think the DEV will want to spend soo much time on a device that wont be as popular in 6 months time
Haha someone wants to use symbian and currently has android that's new also ios also suvks in front of android! Android is hands down the best is in the race and pls never compare something like symbian to android!
Sent from my sgs
kernel: galaxian
Rom: jetpack
Sure it can be done; if Nokia and Apple choose to cooperate with Samsung.
Will it be done? Answer is: 99.9% chance it will not be done.
A much more valid question if the SGS 1 will receive another updated beyond 2.3.x
Even that cannot be answered yet.
While you are at it why not port Psion to the i9000 as well.
I love me some ASCII art!
LOL guys i know that android os is much better than both ios 4/5 and symbian^3 belle
but i was curious about dualboot option in our device and some say that its possible but the developers wont spend time on our device because they all gonna upgrade to sgs2
but when it will happend (that dual boot thing) cause every time there will be new phones and new firmwares so at some point the devs most try the dualboot on our or sgs2 device why not if its possible ??
