Hi all!
Is there a full and stable Android ROM for topaz that can completely replace Windows Mobile and run as the main OS?

Yes I did and I have downloaded two versions that I already tried on my device. Both of them boot using an executable after windows mobile boot. And both of them do not response after 10 minutes of use when the device has gone to sleep mode (screen off).
I would really appreciate it if you could point the thread that answers my question.
Why did you buy Topaz with Windows if you will use Android?
Maybe it would be better to buy some device with Android ROM

If you DID read it, then you'd know that the NAND version is in development, and all you can use right now is HARET.
Oh, and you're setting it up wrong if it keeps freezing.
Guys take it easy! You don't have to be that arrogant!
@Tsubaki-San If my question is answered a million times, then I guess there is reason why people ask the same and same again. So I will not feel bad!
@zizkam I have my device for a year now and I was thinking to change it a little bit without giving any money. Maybe it's a bad idea. We will see...
@seargent007 I guess that I missed this part and this is way I'm asking. I didn't mean to cause any trouble!
Thanks for your help!!!

Sorry, I know what you mean. How about now?
I'd love for it to happen, and I've been following this forum for quite some time now. Still nothing.
I think we'll just have to buy a new phone... and not one with an OS by Microsoft (NEVER AGAIN!!!). Not to disrespect the great work done on this project...
A fully stable version would be great, but unfortunateley I don't see us seriously using Android on Topaz, other than just for testing and fun.

I disagree, the development team has done most of the work, it isn't out of the question to see a stable rom soon.
I'd really like this to work ! i've been using my htc desire for a few months now,
but i'm looking forward to using my diamond again for daily use - with android - !

With all that I read here, I notice one thing... a lot of people think only ONE and ONE ROM only exists. So I'm wondering now who uses what...
If you're using ANY of TouchIT 4.x's, whether the normal ones or ITsBlack, please choose TouchIT V4 since I can't edit the poll.

com'on ppl, be more active bring more ppl in
The more people that contribute, the more innovations we can come up with (or take from other devices... lol)
Alrite,
My rom is tied with the Stock Rom, looks like I might need to rename my rom from Open Touch To Lonely Touch...
Lol
i think most people who visit this forum are Herald users and not Wing users. So the poll should reflect that too. I personally love Open Touch.

What do you mean? TouchIT's V3 and V4 are Herald only. Did I miss any Herald only ROMs?
wat he mean is, there is more herald user so that will make touch it be a favorable rom and generally speaking if you buy a herald from the factory u are a advance user and probably will post more in the forums. Most post are from herald users!!! (I think outside the box)
Open Touch 2.x all the way =] Clean, fast, and easy as all heck to install. All you cooks keep up the good work!

I'm using it and i like it! woohoo!
I'm again on canonyang's ROM(PDAviet). Its not there in the list
hmm why there are no "my own" or "any pdaviet" options?
im currently using latest pdaviet 5.2.1938 and its best for me because of speed and for addition i have allergic reactions for "touch things"..
why nobody cares about speed and amount of ram? there are many things that can be upxed, placed in xip, deleted...

Exactly the reason I use PDAviet 4.17.07.16(5.2.1933 build 18533.0.7.0) WWE(canonyang). I m allergic to Touch stuff
edit: @slemag: is the 5.2.1933 faster than the one I'm using? Is it avaliable without touch stuff too?
i do not know.. i used 6roms since last sunday when i bought my herald.. 1938build which im using now is much faster than touchit and the battery leaks slower. but something still draning all my precious mAh...
i used 1933 to short to tell you it is faster or not.
this rom is not much "touched" - ive got finnaly NORMAL wm6 dialer which is much more usefull than touchdialer (especialy black dialer with black fonts..)
rom that i using can be good basem rom for making quick rom but memory still disapear sometime - like in 1933 and 1908. when i resolve my problem with battery ill try to port build "318" (i dont remember full number) and/or whole Nothin's Paradox rom which is the best i used with my old wizard. ~37mb ram free and best stability/speed. but now ive got few exams and i need to study hard :/
People in general always wants the new things in this case CustomROMs .
So I believe the most up to date ROMs are in higher usage and more spread,
because those of us who come here are not the regular user who sticks with the stock ROM and settings.
Personally I would like to give Ivan's new ROM a try once it's out. Really looking forward.
But right now I stick with IT'sBlack, not sure if I update to Touch-IT 4.4 yet.
The Open Touch ROMs are only for the Wings so I won't use them (my only reason) and Open Touch 1.0 is too outdated for me to put it on my terra.
In general I don't have a favourite ROM, I just use that ROM with gives me the most satisfaction and thats lately ITje's ROMs.
I guess with the release of OpenTouch 2.5 for the Wing owners it gonna be as popular as the Touch-It 4.0 and successors.
Updated and maintained releases are always in the favor of this little community.
Thanks to all of you who are devoting their free time to give us pleasure with our Heralds and Wings.
Will be update soon.

Nice to see someone is still working on this. I have been following the development since it was started, and would really like to help. However my programming skills are litterally non-existent, so probably not much I can do apart from cheeering you on? beta testing? let me know..
Cheers
Finally,
Some people like myself too, were hoping in that. A full working version of android on the touch HD...Good luck...and post your results...we would be really pleased to test...
tuxhero - Your the man
Hi tuxhero,
Touch HD is a very good device, but windows is not a good SO.
We all know windows, slow, always crashing...lost os bugs...
Android in Touch HD would be real great.
I'm available to do developments, testing, anything.
Try to describe really well, provide helpful link....you know info that can help...
I'm joining this TEAM TUXHERO ANDROID BLACKSTONE
It seams that at least now things are going on the right track, we have people working.
See you my friend...You are the man!!!

Why is Windows not a good OS? I'm not a fan at all, but such statements are simply not true. Furthermore you should consider that Windows has nothing to do with Windows Mobile ...
ataide26 said:

Mine isn't crashing that often, isn't slow and I haven't noticed any bug so far.
Just to make it clear: I don't want to hamper the development. In fact I would love to see an alternative to Windows Mobile, but saying things like above aren't the right motivation!
Windows Mobile - even in 6.5 version is good couple years behind functionality of Android or Iphone OS. It was build for PDAs or Pocket PC and it was working perfectly fine for those devices.
BUT for HTC Blackstone - it is not suitable, yes TouchFlo is making this beautiful phone usable, but its only thanks to it one can appreciate it's functionality.
That is why I would LOVE to see Android working on Blackstone.
So thank you for trying. I will be among the first people that will test it whenever you will make it available. [I am just a phone user/gadget lover - so can't help more than that]

I don't think that WM is a bad OS.
Ok, the shipped ROM of my HD was... omg it was horrible.
But when I look at the actually cooked ROMs, they are very fast and stable.
There smoothnes is almost as good as the Iphone's one.
I think all OS's has there positive and negative aspects:
WM is not the userfriendliest, but fully customizeable!
Iphone OS is very userfriendly, but its customizeable like a Gameboy (Customizeable don't means installing different programms)
Android is an alternative to both OS. Userfriendly and customizeable. So if anyone isn't that happy with WM, Android is an good alternative.
I would support this project with all I'm able to.

Thankyou for your support but please limit this thread to Android Porting only don't use it for other stuff.

It is possible but you don't need to extract it we already had source code so we can compile it. But the problem is blackstone is not designed to run Android
that changes lot of things. Now our task is to find what we need to change n change it.
So you said that you are using the android-msm and not the htc-msn kernel for now.
What kernel did xmoo and obus(?? not sure about the name ^^) use? The htc-msm?
Is the android kernel as good as working as the version from obus/xmoo, or is it working better in the moment?
Sry for my english *g*
Hello, I would like to know whether it is possible to have Win Mobile 6.5 installed on this mobile phone or not (HTC Desire). Please advise. Thank you in advance.
1. Wrong section.
2. Everything is possible if you make it. Is there currently a stable WinMo ROM? No, and I don't believe there will be.
There is something, though. It's called HTC HD2.

Sorry if this thread is not in appropriate section. Feel free to move it where it should be. I am new here.
Regarding my question, I don´t want to make flame what is better. The think is following. I had a HTC TP2 but it felt down from my tank-bag in 270 kmph. It survived but was damaged. My repair work was its end .o]
Now I am looking for some device which has suitable dimensions like HTC TP2 - Desire is OK, display res. 800*480, 1GHz processor. Of course I will try Adroid system, but I have many applications for WM, for example iGO8. So I am checking whether it is possible to change ROM and have there WM ROM. XDA developers are well known as a bunch of people who are able to do everything. I was searching forum slightly, but didn´t foind appropriate thread... Please help.

But you've been answered. No, there is no WinMo ROM for Nexus/Desire. No, the chances someone would want to make WinMo port for these devices in any shape or form is slim to none, so I wouldn't hold my breath.

Ohhh - did someone else have the same low opinion of android? Not surprising, considering how many people have thrown their n1 into a drawer until Google can fix some of the bugs.
If you meant WM roms for N1, why didn't you write that instead of writing it like a general statement? Troll posts like that attract deserving responses

@OP, iGO has an android app. ive seen it before, though i havent looked for it in a while. PM me if you would like details.
I mean, if he can really do what he says, its impressive. but he barely releases anything, just speaks about being the first in this or that, without giving any information, or answering the questions, and etc ...
I noticed he is doing the same thing in other htc wp7 devices threads as well.
I definitely value his work, and I don't mean to offend anyone, but i think he should only make new threads when he is actually releasing something, rather than just speaking about what he has achieved.
Edit: He has now released his work in his threads. I'm really sorry for being impatient, and i hope he accepts my sincere apology.

Now i remember this guy from back in HD2 threads, speaking of development of a wp7 rom for hd2 which never came out, and all we got was a 6.5 rom that no one could manage to make it boot except himself...
Now i feel like he is doing the same thing in hd7 rom development ... first this and that ... without really achieving anything.
I definitely value his work if he can really do it, but it seems to me that he is just seeking attention. I don't mean to offend anyone, but i think someone should stop him from making threads which are no use to anyone, and he should be allowed to make thread only when he is actually releasing something, rather than just speaking about what he has achieved.

I understand you , but you have to see it as development for later (research)
and you are right that it was better that he released it when it was ready for it , and not half
his next problem is his language , he is writing real poor English , and you have to read his posts 10 times before you understand it
I should wait some days/weeks before a mod should close his threads .
I think he just has to tell some more what he is doing .
the one thing where you are right all the way is ,that he makes way to much threads of the same all over the place .
lets hope he will read this thread and he will tell more of what exactly he is doing .

He is definately making progress and I'm not sure what you mean by barely released anything, he has released a number of roms so far that work exactly the way he said they would and has also posted yesterday and today the first rom's designed to allow you to cross flash between area's and operators. So put a 02 UK Rom on a standard HD7 Europe device etc, etc.

You can't just request anything here and expect it to be delivered on a plate.
Developers SHOULD answer? (With an exclamation mark)... Should, are you serious...
Might aswell ask for a new Porsche 911 as a little extra while you're at it... [\sarcasm mode off]
I get the feeling you guys are convinced it's only a matter of pushing a button and ... voila... a new ROM.
Try to behave and be grateful that allot of developers have already spent thousands of hours on the current available ROMS for our Xperia SP.
And for the love of god, stop asking this question in every single thread on the forum!!! It's ANNOYING!!!

The problem is that you're posting this question all over the forum, which is called spamming!
If you really want to have this ROM, try learning how to make them yourself instead of bothering everyone with your question like a little kid.
Don't think everything in life will be handed over to you just like that simply by asking for it.

Well, I tried but I failed, I got bootloop and logcat was not working and I spent 2 weeks trying to make it work, but it did not work. This is why I came here asking someone to port it
I'm sure most developers have spent allot more than 2 weeks on learning how to port or build a ROM.
Just keep trying and eventually I'm sure you'll succeed. Just don't give up that easily!
Good luck!

Its all trial and error and persistence is what gets you further.
Even with limited time ( everyday i had school ) all nights i spent

And do note htc sense roms needs more then just a system folder port
Modded kernel
Etc

Hey, bro, I had just tried it.
Now I likely finished editting the updater-script.
I can flash it and reboot, but not boot up.
It will get a black screen and not get into the second boot animation.
My work is based on CM11-nightly-1006 and ported from Liberty-V1 for One mini (M4).
