Guest Medved77 Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 This question was asked over at xda-developers a while ago: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=535551 At the minute it's not possible to port android as it's still not possible to install anything 'custom' to the ROM. Once the ROM is decrypted it should be possible as the TG01 definately has the hardware to run it. Other WinMo HTC devices have had Android ported on to them: http://pocketnow.com/software-1/googles-an...-windows-mobile In the meantime have you tried androkkid? It's an android style user theme for window mobile: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540428 Haven't tried myself so please report back if you do.

Guest The Real Mc Coy Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 (edited) At the minute it's not possible to port android as it's still not possible to install anything 'custom' to the ROM. Not sure you are right on this... I did used Android on my former pdaphone (HTC Diamond) without flashing ROM. The main concern should be hardware support. As it is said in the link (PocketNow) you provide : We're not talking about replacing the ROM here, we're talking about opening Linux as if it was a Windows Mobile Application and then loading Android within that. Androkkid is good but it's only a graphical interface and you cannot run Android apps... Edited January 13, 2010 by The Real Mc Coy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Spooke Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 Ahh ok, Thanks for clearing this up for me, Hopefully if XDA-Developers adds a Toshiba TG01 channel then we could see this happening right? I dont think its the hardware tbh, as there are a few Android Devices with the same proccessor as the TG01, but Im proberly wrong? Thanks though! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
