[REQ][OS] Meizu M8 WinMo/Iphone OS Clone

[veearrsix]

Just wanted to put this out there, I know theres been a lot of interest in porting android, so thought maybe this, as an idea, had been side stepped.

Having seen a few demo's of the New(ish) Meizu M8, it does have a very slick interface, and as far as i'm aware it is based on windows mobile.

How difficult would it be to port the Meizu rom to the diamond?? Surely it would be a lot easier than some of the other large projects that are running.

Its not that i'm desperate to have an iphone interface on my phone, but it is one of the slicker winmo implementations i've seen.

Just an idea, worth discussion if nothing else...

Good question...... I would like to see the same thing for the Sprint TP!

well there will be issues: as Meizu M8 uses Win CE instead of WM6.1, which has lot more differences in the code. though i'm not a programmer but to me they seem like 2 diferent plateforms.:confused:

The mMobile UI is rubbish.. :mad::mad::mad:

Simply another iPhone clone on WinCE 6.0. I don't think it's worth to use.

so why do you care about this thread then?

[over_limit]

how can be used? on a diamond??? this is a bin file ;) ??

[dabs]

It cant be used.

chinmay007 is right, this is based on a completely different OS - not a chance of it working.

From memory the relationship between WinCE and WinMo is similar to that of DOS/Win3.1 in a really basic way -> WinMo runs over WinCE and provides the user-layer functionality/experience, hence it may still be possible to use this OS.

ive been watching those ppl for the almost a year awaiting the release... then i bought the diamond last month and the m8 is finally out it would be awesome if it was ported but superbly doubted

Hi guys !
I did not understand one thing: I can install this ROM on my Diamond? it is dangerous? Thanks

;)

[the-equinoxe]

I suppose you could rip some of the packages and convert them from the 720x480 resolution to diamonds resolution 640*480.

The OS maybe could be converted, but still all resolutions had to be adapted.
Not impossible, but a lot of work.

[yuco91]

ok . THX for the answer ;)

Guys, i've a question :

I've downloaded the MEIZU M8 ROM , but in the .rar there is a .bin file ONLY . How can I extract IT ?!


I'm sorry , but i'm ignorant on this subject but I'm curious :p
