Guest ED2O9 Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 To the best of my knowledge, the HD2 has a capacitive screen which supports multitouch, while the Omnia 2 is resistive. That's why the guy in the demo can pinch to zoom. So, even if you could get WIndows Phone 7 to run on the Omnia 2, a lot of the cooler features wouldn't work properly. Keep in mind that the Windows Phone 7 is being touted as a great gaming device with the inclusion of XBox Live. The majority of the games available to WP7 require multitouch. It would be pretty cool to see in run on the Omnia 2, though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest kainobean Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 well actualy contray to what most people belive resistive touch screens do support multi-touch the only diffrence is it requires some calculations. like when you touch two points on a resistive screen it will register as being touched at a point half way between the two points being touched... this is the tricky part because now you have to write software to beable to calculate were the 2 points are and it can be done its just quite complicated and thus why no one really wants to try this... but it has been done and its been done with very accurate percioin and being able to support as many points as you can possibly get to touch the screen at one time... still dont think wp7 will work with the o2 just cause of the fact multi-touch isnt native to resistive screens and requires a lot of code to us multi-touch...

Guest Snow02 Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 There will never be a port for the omnia 2, the time investment to make it work just isn't worth it. The HD2 is looked at as the easiest port as all of the hardware is essentially the same. As there is no windows phone running on the same chipset, drivers would mostly need to be written from scratch. Not gonna happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
