Android and WP7 development (what a weekend!)

[Noir]

okay so there has been a breakthrough in the android front that we have all been waiting for
for android
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=AE8XSKQF
users will need the 2.10.50.28_2 radio to test
any other radio will not work
http://us.vbnfiles.com/xda/HTC%20HD2...Leo%29/Radios/
get the radio there
secondly
wp7 may look realistic now
no "real" porting news but the Mondrian rom is yielding some interesting results and open development is under way.

So is this mega upload link a video of android working on an HD2? I don't get it...all it says is "HD2 Test 720p"

linux test
linux finally runs and that means android isn't really all that far behind...matter of days, weeks, or even months
its not a video
it plays a video on the hd2 in 720p from the linux console meaning that the device can accept linux commands which means android booting isn't far behind
even more amazing is the ability to run 720p which I really couldn't in windows mobile...so as far as development goes, the breakthrough has been found. I expect a very fast android build to be released!

This is amazing news indeed...I take it you will keep the HD2 forums updated on the latest builds and such...

Can't wait for the evo to drop...I work at Radioshack...and I'll have immediate access to one on or before launch day.

Let me know if you want me to rip everything off the EVO's memory the second I get it all I have to do is hook it up to a laptop in the store and just tell me what software to use to properly copy everything from the phones memory and storage card and I'll upload or e-mail it to you. And you would probably know better than I would who to send it to to get ripped apart. I definitely have access to the EVO phones on or before launch so let me know.

absolutely! dcordes may be working on an android build to be released...for wp7 lotta discussion concerning hspl and hardware compatibility for the hd2...shockingly some programs do not give error so it means there may not be as many compatibility issues as once thought in the oem dept save from silverlight
we need tom though

Linux vid won't work on my HD2, read that formatting card and trying is doing the trick in a few cases but don't feel like doing it right now so i guess i'll try later...

thats awesome news, read and heard about the wp7, but not the android. im excited

[Noir]

android is very young...it would rock to see a release in a few weeks...heck a few days would be unbelievable...though I want to try that sense on desire
who needs an evo now =3
