Android on Omnia II Possible? - Omnia II Android Development

There is a way to put Android on the Omnia 2?

I second the request from Niccolo

I don't see why not. If it's possible on other WinMo phones, then the Omnia line is possible too. On the other hand, just as with other phones, it will probably have to be built from the ground up, especially since the Omnia II has different hardware.

that would be v.nice

i second this request. though i like winmo, wouldnt mind being able to dualboot to android! for fun and braggin rights! hehehe

I have been looking in the web very hard and i haven´t found anything.
we have to join

One hope is the Gen.Y DualBOOT.

can some one create a xdandroid for omnia ii since it has the same resolution as hd2?

That's a dualbooter only, that was created to use with XDANDROID, wich is mean't to work with an handfull of HTC devices...
But i hope too, if there is android working on the i900's, that a port for the i8000 (and b7610 ) must'n be far

Hi there,
they have port android on HTC HD1. it's in WVGA and for windows mobile devices, maybe some cazy guys want to try
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=621498&highlight=android+HD
Supports Blackstone, Diamond, Diamond 500, Fuze, Raphael, Raphael 800, Rhodium, Tilt 2 & Topaz
I have also post it in TG01 section, like that we will know if it's working on non HTC devices.
hope that can help.

HTC Touch HD, like most of HTC devices is powered by Qualcomm MSM 72xx. Same as G1, HTC Hero and other popular Android devices. It doesn't affect us. We need rom dumped from Android device similar to our i8000.

I'm not sure if anyone's seen this, it's a new Samsung phone, their first with Android 2.1. Specs look identical to the Omnia 2. Maybe if we can get a ROM dump from this we can get Android dual-booted, which would be fantastic.
I'm not allowed to post links apparently, you'll have to add the ws -
careace.net/2010/02/04/samsung-android-2-1-phoneshw-m100s-is-unveiled/

Samsung m100s may be the answer except for the phone having a few hardware differences.
T-DMB
802.11n Wi-Fi
800Mhz CPU(Cortex A8)I read somewhere else that it was the same as i8000/i920, we will have to wait and see

Some 1 already ported Android on Omnia i900, know as ANDROMNIA...
Check over at MoDaCo or just search google for Andromnia..
Its still Beta project and I guess its specific to Omnia i900, might/might not work on Omnia i8000... chk out the forum and get the info u need..

Well.. ARM Cortex A8 is different CPU than Omnia 2 has. But pdadb.net claims Samsung Galaxy Lite i5700 (aka Spica) has the same CPU that is used in our i8000. Can someone confirm it?

Well it seems they do at least in the "Qualcomm MSM7200A 528 MHz" part"( i don't know if there are variations of that model of procesor). The i7500 has the same CPU.
Does that mean that Android can be ported out of these machines?

While were at it, can we get Android for my little brothers Samsung Behold I and my mommys Samsung Memoir? Thanks.

Have a look at this it looks like the exact same hardware with Android on it, the additional 'projector apps' should be easy to get rid of.
The one downfall is that the Omnia 2 has 256mb ram whereas this thing has 384. But in any case it is definitely a start and the fact that it will have Android v2.1 is pretty good news as it is very up to date.

It is the same CPU from what i can see, however typical Samsung the thing is stuck on Android 1.5.
I have no idea how much ROM/RAM that thing has.

any luck anyone?

thats an HD2 not an TP2, HD2 is the only device from HTC which will be official compatible with WM 7.
because WM7 needs a capacitive tochscreen it will not work on TP2.

Haha, I hope they will release TP3 in time with WP7 I'm also curious about the dual core snapdragon processors which are announced with the end of this year

When I had the T-Mobile Wing they said we could not get WM6.5 and now thanks to XDA we have it. Now I have the TP2 and even though the screen doesn't support some of the command I would not be surprized if there was success in getting WM7 onto this phone (limited in functionality and may be very slow). At any rate I will be getting the HD2 on March 24 when it comes out to T-Mobile.

IMHO, the GUI is not that complex that you really need complex hardware. If MS really wanted, i believe it could run on a TP2 too (even with multitouch). 529Mhz is not that slow. And your TP2 has OPENGL 1.1? hardware which is not really used very well.
But like MS said, they put a lot of work to let the hardware and software work really together. Which in other words they say you need to buy new hardware (faster CPU, OPENGL 2.0; base ram 512MB)
Even now it could technically run on HD2, the HD2 device is not officially compliant with the 3 hardware buttons a Win7 mobile device needs (back, start , search). I wonder how to map the search button.
Let's only hope!
I am sure that if someone can get the current ROMs for the HD2, which are technically designed for a capacitive screen, to work on the TP2, I would bet money that someone will be able to port it over and make it work. We won't really know until stuff starts getting leaked. That would be great though. I would really like to give WP7 a test run before dumping $500 on a new phone!!
TP2 will be able to run WP7 (maybe there might be problems with OpenGL ES 2.0 missing). The right question is - will MS make BSP for it? I highly doubt it.

Yep me too. Although i'm gonna ditch my TP 2 as soon as I get confirmation of WM7 running on the hd2.
I saw somewhere that Windows Phone 7 will require a 1ghz processor. The HD2 has that and the Touch Pro 2 doesn't.
If someone does get Windows Phone 7 ported over, it's likely going to run a little slowly.
don't forget mandatory 4 point multitouch... that might be a problem for full functionality.
I seem to remember the guy who introduced WM7 (WPS7) saying something about the 7 series being slated for all manner of new phones including those with and without keyboards (I think he made reference to phones similar to BBs with keyboards on the face of the phones)...So unless the price of processors comes down significantly I really don't think every new phone running this 7 series OS will meet such demanding base requirements (1GHz processor, capacitive multitouch screens etc., etc.).
YES!

Touch Pro Series The Best Option HTC have!
according to several websites like: http://www.redmondpie.com/htc-hd2-to-get-windows-mobile-7-upgrade-9140128/ the HD2 will get windows mobile 7. but TP2 will most likely be up to the devs here at the XDA if they can do it. My feelings are that if they can get android going on TP2 (so far so good) then they can do windows mobile 7.
In my opinion, our devices are transition devices, most of us are waiting/hoping for a TP3 better than HD2, or at least with similar specifications as the HD2.
TP2 runs WP7, but it reminds me of my old Artemis with WM65 and TF2D, .
We´ll see it coming soon.
Cheers.
i have a blue angel runnign wm 6.5 so anything is possible especially if there is enough interest.
I understand why the move makes sense for MS but personally from what I've seen of WM7 I'm in no hurry for it to get here. Now if i could get my TP2 with a 1ghz cpu i might look at it but until the smart guys here at XDA figure out how to get past WM7's limitations i'm not in any rush to give up what I have.
It might be able to run it, but Microsoft and HTC aren't going to release anything needed to make an unofficial port happen. Sorry, but it's extremely likely that the TP2 is not going to get WM7, officially or otherwise.
And to everyone who always cites the example of Windows Mobile 6.5 running on an old device, I hate to break it to you but it's not that easy when dealing with WM7. Windows Mobile 7 is based off the Windows CE 6.0 kernel, while Windows Mobile 5 and 6.x are powered by the same CE 5.2 kernel, making a port of WM 6.x to a WM5 device pretty easy. It's much more difficult when you have a different kernel with from an OS that doesn't support most of your hardware, as it means someone has to create a BSP themselves.
No multi-tasking = No dice for me! It'd be like a downgrade! Loving my TP2 with Deep Shining Rom. I use my phone for a whole manner of things, usually business orientated. If I wanted the type of phone the Windows mobile 7 looks like it's gonna introduce, I would've bought an IPhone!

HTC Desire vs Samsung Wave

Hey
i saw many reports about the mwc in barcelona and the upcoming phones.
2 of them seem to be best, the HTC Desire with its awesome technic specs and the samsung wave with bada and nearly better specs.
what phone would you prefer, what do you think about bada and what about the new sense?
Bada is new, .. with little to no applications for it, while android have many applications in the market place (Over 9000 applications).
And with Android you can expect alot of support for it, but what kind of support you have for the Bada now?
I prefer Android phone over Bada in a heart beat (any Android phone, not Desire specifically)
irkan said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
More than 30000
And for same raisons as Irkan, I prefer Android for now. I think Bada is too young and has not the same support as Android.
That whole Bada OS is not really reaching me. I have read almost no articles about it, while I check out almost all major phone websites daily.
Only thing I remember is when 7 Series news started popping @ MWC, one of these major websites said something like: 'Bada OS... wel, is a long way from how impressive 7 Series is, so we are going to talk about 7 Series and not Bada'. While it may not have been these exact words, this was the idea. I see Bada OS as a OS for the 'simple' people. People on this forum are not these 'simple people'.
But hey I could be wrong about Bada OS. Anyway, HTC Desire > Samsung Wave. I just don't buy Samsung devices anymore. Plus 3.3 inch = fail. Even 3.5 inch is to small.
I trust Samsung to make their own OS competently about as much as I trust my pet goldfish to figure out quantum physics. In other words--no. Bada OS will most likely function like a featurephone non-OS.
Bada OS - Featurephone OS. Esentially that's what it is, to power its Tocco like devices.
Android - Smartphone OS
I think this is the first Samsung's open OS, isn't?. Samsung support for closed OSs was/is very bad I admit it, but I believe that as open OS and including a market platform for apps, Bada could be a different stuff from Samsung.
On the other hand the Samsung wave specs point at the best device nowadays. 1GHz snapdragon, aluminium body, templed scratch-resistant glass surface, 1500 mAh battery, 720p recording, Radio FM, BT 3.0, and 16M-color Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen with 480 x 800 pixels resolution in addition to this you can read easily in a sunny day on this screen, and has improved viewer angle.
Simply perfect
Samsung Wave ... perhaps with Android OS???
So the Hardware Specs and Build Quality looks good.
The Bada OS would also put me off as it really doesn´t show any diffence to Andriod, except that there will be less apps.
I´d days a perfect Andriod 2.x phone.
Or could the Samsung SHW-M120S be the same with android?
Samsung make nice tvs and screens
Don't do nice OS
Android Everytime...
Think they made the wave to grab attention for bada
you should look at Samsung Galaxy S (Android 2.1).. not this bada device
No point in nice hardware if the OS isn't any good.
The only OS's worth anything in my opinion are Android, iOS and Windows Phone Mobile Seven Series Edition or whatever it's called (from what I've seen so far)
So yeah go with the Desire if they are the only two phones you are considering, though there are some better Android phones in my opinion.

And then revolt at the sight of Touchwizz? No thank you!
I just wish Samsung would use vanilla android and focus their attention on updating their phones with the latest android builds.
Imagine the galaxy s getting the froyo update just weeks after the nexus one. A lot of people would jump ship to samsung android phones just for their after sales support.

It doesn't have a snapdragon does it? I thought it has samsung's own hummingbird cpu like the galaxy s does...
So in that way it's even better but bada doesn't seem competative to android and others
My sister got an Samsung Wave some month ago because she is in a Samsung Developer Program. Having played around with it and a Nexus One ive got to say:
Pro:
Bada is faster and snappier than Android 2.1 (don't know about 2.2).
Every App i tested ran more fluently and the battery drain was lower than on the Nexus One. From an Performance and Stability Point of View i think Bada is the better OS.
It's going to be cheaper than any comparable Device because Samsung wants to push Bada with it.
Con:
Currently there is a ridiculously small amount of applications out there, not even one Car-Navigation App. This is the Show-Stopper for me because i use my Xpera X1 currently for Music(SenseMp3), Car Navigation (TomTom), Mails and Browsing and to give up on the Hardware Keyboard that lets me write longer mails without pain and to give up on the Car Navigation Feature is just not imaginable for me.
Developing own Applications for Bada is Done in C++ which makes it quite harder for anyone who loves the convenience of Java or Python. But i think this is a reason why its OS works so well on its own.
Samsung Wave with Android
The build quality seams much better than the Glaxay S.
So is it not possible to port a nicer Android OS to the Samsung Wave?
Or it it that hard to get Bada off the Phone?
I mean they ported Android to the Iphone 3gs already.
I just really dont like Samsung devices.. they are too much like cheap chinese toys with really bizarre functions that never quite step up to the mark.
I'm sure they've released a couple of serious handsets but all the ones I've used are very much WTF!?!?!
Agreed with previous , with phones samsung not going well ,
but looking on hardware specs i consider to take this one -
just if it will be in android os!!!
Since buying my Omnia II im so disillusiond with samsung. It had the best specs when it came on the market. But the horrible OS thats on it! I had to buy a shell and have flashed numerous roms to be able to use the phone anywhere near normal. And now a year later the phone still has not got working opengl drivers. And development has probably stopped on the phone.
Never a samsung again for me.
I'm so jealous of you guys who have a desire (just a few more months till contract renewal!!)
I've both wave and desire, what should i say ... the wave is a nice piece of electronics, fantastic display and good quality but bada is not as good as samsung want us to believe. very little apps, half-baked apps (email e.g.) and often unintuitive handling. It has not that flexibility android has. But in deed batterylife is much better then any other smartphone i know except blackberrys and we've to consider that its version 1.0, so maybe bada's development is as fast as android's - as is know samsung, i don't believe.

It's looks like similar for me, but for Eten devices, so at least clear now the situation.
Then need to wait similar device from HTC , about 3.2-3.5", 1GHz, small weight and powerful battery on Android

i dont think slowness is caused by you service provider...
No dev has a RAPH500 to play with (to my knowledge) and the kernel for the 500 is in the doldrums as a result. Sorry, until someone more knowledgeable about coding that has a 500 steps up, or one of the devs gets their hands on a 500, progress will be slow.
You also realize that VZW crippled their version of the TouchPro right? It's working with something like half the RAM available to the 110's or 800's.
How do I get there?
I've been playing with android on my htc titan and just bought a Raph500 off ebay. How can I help get the raph500 off the ground? According to wikipedia the raph500 has 192MB ram, which should be usable. The HTC titan only has 64, and android almost works. I'd like to learn more. Is that what chef central is all about?

the at&t version (htc fuze) has 288 mbs and i know in WM around 90 mbs are always free. also the htc titan is a much more understood phone on how everything works and is not as complex/ undocumented as the touch pro.
if your asking about chef central its not for you but seriously the people that makes android for wm phone or roms are called "chefs" and their roms are what they "cook" (its like a inside joke) but it is were all the new chefs go to get tools or help from experienced developers (or called devs)
question, if your on verizon, why are you using a touch pro and trying to run an android rom on it, if you want android, you should be using the droid eris, droid, or droid incredible. those are much better options for android on verizon than using a rom to try to run it on a WM phone.

If we all used this logic, then this project probably wouldn't exist at all. People are tied to contracts, don't want to buy a new phone, like their TP, for whatever reason... They'd rather run it as a ported project. I will probably get an Android-based device eventually - but until I do it's pretty cool to be able to run Android on my WinMo phone. I'm sure he just feels the same way...

Run Android on WinMo 7

I have followed XDA for quite some time and have been waiting for someone to get a little bored with android like myself and start the modding of the new WinMo 7 phones to run both Android and WinMo 7. I can't find anything on it. Is it just not possible (yet)??? I know the devices can handle it...1ghz, 16gb internal, plenty of memory...Vibrant, etc. Seems like the perfect device for a dual boot Eclair/Froyo and WinMo 7. Windows Mobile 6x running Android is old and the 1st one I did was the Tytn II by HTC. Slow, but it was still nice to have both.
Any Devs out there wanna push this? I'll buy hardware and do any tests wanted. Seems Samsung specs are pretty equal between the Vibrant and Focus or even like the port of Android to the HD2...can it be done using the HD7 from T-Mo?
In the case of Samsung, why wouldn't you just get the Captivate (Galaxy S)? Already has Android. The Focus is basically the same phone...

why start from ZERO when HD2 is already running Android pretty smoothly and will be getting wp7 soon? Not to bash or anything but wp7 may not be as easy to tinker with as compared to wm6.

[Q] Android on Wave and Wave II

Just wondering if any xda developers would be willing to do and Android port to the samsung wave if a bounty was available for it?
The Wave and Wave II have almost identical hardware however the Wave II has a 3.7 SLCD (vs the Wave I's 3.3 SAMOLED although they both have the same resolution)
And both devices are very similar in terms of hardware to the rest of the Samsung galaxy family.
So any one interested?
and could this be done on wave s525 too ?
Possible, but the device is quite low end hardware and the OS is lightweight enough to work on it.
There's a thread over at Samsung Wave Forums. I believe they're working on it, but at the moment it is not available.
There is supposedly some Bada Wave Project over on Samsung Wave forums however they are asking for money and have yet to show results and it doesn't sound like anything real is happening. If a real Android port were to happen it would have to come from some of the talent here at XDA.
I have been watching the guy, hes not capable of doing it, i am almost certain of it. I have not seen one iota of proof that he has the first notion where to start.
We would be willing to start up a bounty and collect money for somebody here to actually get a working port. I am all for expanding Bada but having out options open is always nice.
Also some people may also be willing to donate a Wave (some people i have come across have 2 or 3 for some reason)
i hope we would have custom ROMS for our wave soon
I can See Custom ROM's coming to Bada soon, but an Android Port, due to Low End Hardware as stated above wouldn't be the easiest of tasks, It's not porting Froyo from HTC Desire HD to HTC HD2 ( which are like dramaticly twin hardwares ) ... if a port it is to be done, they would have a Kernel that fits the Resources need to the decide and thn it would have to be Hard Coded... and seriously, that's not something to be done by our Fine Xda Geniuses but by Multi Millionaire companies ( such as samsung lol ), it would be just too much work, but custom ROM completely doable since an SDK is already out there
Just my opinion
Ok thats sounds reasonable, i think you may be right any way. I look forward to seeing what enhancements are made to bada over the coming months.

I can't understand how you are telling that the Wave s8500 & Wave II s8530 have low-end hardware.
1 ghz. processor with 512 MB RAM. How could be that low-end ?
Its hardware is much powerful than the Galaxy 3 & Optimus One.
I'm sure that Android can be ported on it & no it won't require some big corporation to do that. Android is open source for anyone to modify & use.
I didn't get to understand either, as far as I remember, Samsung Wave has the same processor as iPhone4, same graphics as Galaxy S (and better than iPhone4, like we all know) and 512MB of RAM memory... =P
I like android..
But,bada is very cool
have read it many a times..but i dont know what it is..
can anyone tell what is "custom ROMS" exactly??
there is the Wave 2 and Wave 2 pro as well the Wave 725 which are different than the Wave and Wave II, They could handle an Android Port but it would be a little slow id imagine, (although considering the sheer speed of my G1 maybe not) The Wave and Wave II could definitely handle and Android port.

Even the Samsung Galaxy Spica managed to run Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), why wouldn't our Waves run it?
We 'just' need to find a way to replace Wave's bootloader with a different one, which is the most difficult part of porting Android to Wave, and then everything's gonna be possible !
Yeah if we where to figure out how exactally to get the boot loader on the wave out of the picture then we would have no problem porting android, heck i have the spec sheet here i could have a working build done up in a day from source!
Clockworkmod wanna give this a try for a free wave and some money??
clearly there is more demand for android on wave than anything else.....looking at the number of replies and stuff......
Android has already been ported to devices running other os like iPhone (iOS), HTC HD2 (WM 6.1) & Nokia N900 (Maemo). So I am pretty sure that it cam be ported to Wave too.
I can clearly see the lack of interest in the developers.
There are more users of Wave than that of N900, so why shouldn't it be ported to Wave ?
i think its just the ppl from badafroums that are participating in this.. where are other ppl??
