Why would you wanna go to windows 8 with android around ? Android on G-note is much more powerful than with windows.
incase you haven't checked the "apollo" and it's capabilities please do a brief research...
windows phone 8 is on a whole new level of competition here...
considering the release of windows 8 for our computers... and the Microsoft E3 press conference... i doubt that "crappy" tag someone just gave above this comment...
i've been using windows mobile 6, 6.1, 6.5, windows phone 7, mango... and galaxy note is my first android device...
before galaxy note i was using htc hd2 and i still have that device... (but galaxy note is my primary device) so i thought if we can port android on a windows phone why can't we port windows to an android phone?
and for the respected people who are interested in this idea... i think we need another version of MAGLDR (like we had in htc hd2) and maybe we can install the "apollo" on our SD card...
we may have a dual boot device!
if you can find (or develop) the drivers, yes... it can be ported.
and yes, i dare say any winblows product is crap
you may "dare" **** your pants or eat crap sir/madam, nobody cares about that... and if you find this post soooo uninteresting or "crappy" why bother replying nonsense thoughts of your p-brain which (...is actually dehydrated) aren't useful for anyone?!
and thanks for the motivation you just gave me... :]
i posted this question to discuss, maybe help real developers/people not assclowns/disrespectful people who don't even respect the hardworking developers who create these operating systems for us...
Its my humble opinion !!!
I was also a user of Windows and bada OS' . And with android around they are not even in the competition. And this is my own opinion, so i'll move it off.
Android is, indeed, more powerful than Windows. But, different strokes for different folks.
Since we have sources now, I'm pretty sure more developers will come along soon and hopefully, for your sake, a developer that can port Windows 8. The more variety, the better, for us all.

Being fair, would it be worth to port it in d note cuz, it involves a lot of time and much more risk( With mmc brick bugs in stable releases themselves).

don't hold your breath. those sources are linux based as android is linux based. do you expect devs to develop a winblows OS based on a linux kernel?
maybe.... just maybe.... when the winblows kernel is freely available and somebody is really interested to port or develop the drivers, then maybe you might have a winblows "experience" on your note. and while you're at it, why not wish for iOS port to Note?
keep wishing........
people hate it when the absurdity of their delusions hits them smack in the face.

Hey folks,
im just asking if anyone yet tried a port of windows mobile 6.5.xx or Phone 7 onto our Nexus?

No point in windows 6.5 that is a downgrade but seven might be worth it.

Well also meego , ubuntu, or windows 98 have been kinda ported, its not that i want it 4 daily Use, but because we can!
Phone 7 might be worth a port though...
Answered something like a thousand times.
It's a closed OS, with proprietary sources. If there will be a phone very similar in specs to Nexus, which will be running this OS - there might be a port. If not - then there won't be.
I don't believe anyone with skills to port WinMo 6.5 from HD2 would waste his time doing it.

There is a ROM of the HTC Mozart in the WP7 thread here, in xda.

I don't think anyone is interested in this, since nexus owner aren't that many..and I think the majority of nexus owners are kind of android fanboys...
Hope i'm wrong, because i'd really like to convert my Nexus in a WP7...until Gingerbread (or whatever) comes
Currently I'm on rods muiu rom and it is great. I would love to try windows 7 on my nexus though. I'm trying to figure out how to get Ubuntu without a computer on my nexus

I think that could be interesting to run WP7 into a Nexus to play a little.
But take a look at this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=737142
If I could try this....
I know this is off-topic but, someone here knows something about Gingerbread?
Wow the new htc phones are using the same processor as our nexus ones, it seems the hardware in all the phones are generally the same as the nexus one (apart from that extra internal storage). I wonder if porting would be possible
I think that it is possible to take WP7 on a Nexus and I really hope that!
Howewer is not a mystery that the Android Community don't like Windows and Microsoft philosophy...
I like the fact that WP7 is very polished compared to android. Hope it gets ported!
Not likely to happen. MS lawyers will have a c and d on the developer, any involved websites, etc in about two seconds. Think apple stype policing of what is entirely closed source and you can bet your ass heavily defended by flocks of attorney who are paid out of one of the biggest war chests in corporate history. The way is going to be to get a windows phone with an android brother and dual boot. That will likely happen.
Android can be polished you just have to theme it a bit. At first it seems very cruel and industrial to me.

I'd love to see WP7 work on my Nexus One. If it doesn't get ported and it does work on the HD2 I'm probably buying an HD2. Then I can use Android and WP7.

Hello everyone,
Is it possible to run dual OS on the galaxy S tab? Like Android and Apple !?

Is that a serious question?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using Tapatalk
Seems like a legitimate question to me, ViewSonic's ViewPad 10 already does Android-Windows dualbooting, and XDA itself has a thread about dualbooting the HD2 with WM and Android.
If the OP's asking about Android and iOS specifically though, then probably the answer might be no. If someone could do it though, it might actually be a good thing for the Android crowd: shows the Apple fans that choice and customizability is a good thing.
I was thinking the other day that my Tab would be pretty cool if running Windows Thin PC, saw info and a download on the MS site the other day while working on my wifes netbook.
I dont see a problem with either a full working version of Ubuntu or Windows on the GT and Android, or just the full OS. Seems reasonable to put an OS on what is essentially a tablet PC.
I would think its just a matter of a bios, and loading the OS, but I am not a programmer, so I could very well be wrong.
But....I'd load Windows or Ubuntu on the tab if it gave me the 3G ability as well as all other functions.

IIRC I think there's already a thread on XDA on bringing Ubuntu to the Tab. With Windows it might be trickier. The ViewSonic ViewPad 10 runs on Intel Atom, which is already used by other netbooks that run Windows. Windows might not be designed to run on ARM however, which is used on many Android devices. Processor design differences may be the key factor in porting the OS. (I've gotten Gingerbread to run on my Atom netbook though, alas I still couldn't get the touch screen to work)
Would be the first to jump onto dualbooting Android with Windows if it ever comes to fruition though; I'm a Windows developer and it'll be cool if I could write small apps and use them on my Tab.

You can't run Windows because there is currently no ARM version, though MS say that they will support ARM in Windows 8, but by the time this sees the light of day, the Tab will be obsolete.
There is a thread in the dev forum about porting Ubuntu to the Tab, but I believe it is still a long way from fully functional.
Regards,
Dave
I already posted the question about fully functions in ubuntu for the tab. Specially the phone and sms functions but they denied it. I keep following and hope some day it will work

Thanks for the responses guys. Let's hope one day it would be possible!
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
since both iOS and Android are ARM based in most cases, you could probably make it happen.
Both Android and iOS are Unix based, so we could achieve this.
Also
It could be easier to port iOS than Honeycomb because iOS source code is avalaible for public, for improvements and bug seeking.
So, Yes, we could have dual OS on the tab, it could be windows, Ubuntu, Maemo, iOS and even Symbian

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 ??
Got this idea tonight , I was thinking about this and im sure that this as been done before , is there anyways to install windows phone on an android device such as Samsung Galaxy s. Also are there some restrictions that could make this not able to do so.
If someone knows any thread or tuts this would be apreciated.
Thanks guys

till now.........we cant flash windows7 os on Samsung galaxys............why u want to switch over android........which is best os in the world.

Not impossible, it's been ported to HD2. And other phones I believe but i know for sure Windows 7 was not meant to be on HD2

I don't think he was asking or opinions of the OS. I think he was inquiring to see if it was possible. I to would like to try this to see or myself and not take others word for it. I will search for a solution and update this thread with what I find.
Edit: It seems that it is not possible currently. However, there are developers that are working on a solution to that problem The main problem is the hardware that was not intended for Windows that is equipped to run Android OS. Hopefully there is spark at some point. There is a lot of talk though that Microsoft is trying to bully their way into having smartphone manufacturers load thee OS and allowing the consumer to be ale to dual boot. That article can be see over at many tech blogs including Znet.
Till now, there is not any known method to do this. Android OS is the best OS in the world. Almost every application is available for android. Also it is most customisable. I would recommend you to stay with Android and install WP launchers to get windows phone like stuff/looks
It is interesting which ideas we`ve got :good:
In my opinion:
Microsoft is something for my PC @home, and Android have to run on my device ...
One of my friends have one nokia with WP7 ,looks nice and works good ,he says - but for me nothing gets about Android , but it is only my opinion :angel:
To ask the thread:
I have never heard of any way to flash WP 7/8 on Android devices ...
Only device that got WP7 and did not run it natively were the Toshiba TG01 and the legendary HD2
So sorry, not happening as it's closed source
if its possible on hd2 its possible on devices using same hardware as of windows phone trying to develop a boot loader which helps wp7 bot on our android , any who one can help us with it ???

it is always nice to running multiple OS on one phone,i think we need new bootloader same exactly like cotulla has done for HD2,this sounds good to start request to cotulla,i heard he was working for MAGLDR bootloader in HTC M7,let us see
I just write all my own apps for my WP... Android OS is a little clumsy and I think it's ugly... let me know if anyone finds out how to do this... I'd buy a galaxy in a minute if it weren't for the crappy OS.

Anyone here think it can be done? I'm looking to get one, but it would be really nice if WP8 can be installed on it. Even WP7.8 would be nice.
I tried asking this in the Nexus 7 section, but the Android fanboys there just kept pestering me about why I'd want to change to WP. It got annoying after a while. Thought I'd ask here, where there'd be more enthusiasm for the idea.

O_O Windows phone 8?....on a Asus Nexus 7 tablet? WHY? not even microsoft has made one (and for good reason....it wouldnt make a good tablet UI on its own). Id think that if anything....you would want windows 8 on it seeing as how thats got that awful metro UI AND full bown access to the windows OS. Also im gonna say no, windows phone 8 is less open source and less popular than android or iOS so I dont think its attracting the proper amount of developers that it would need to accomplish such a feat (if possible anyway). But what do i know....im just an "android fanboy"
