Question [Q] Run Android/iOS on HTC 7 Mozart

Hello XDA, I have two questions:

- It's possible to run android on HTC 7 Mozart (2.1 2.2 2.3 or 3.0) ?
- It's possible to run iOS 4.X on HTC 7 Mozart ?

If it's possible how to ? Thanks all.

no and no

it's too soon for an android build - the Blackstone has been around for many years and still hasn't got a fully working android build - and THAT device has the ability to run haret...wp7 devices dont

iOS wont be available for ANY non-apple device

There are several threads asking for Android for Mozart, there were no need to start a new one.

Also don't you think it's easy to buy a phone with android, if you want android, or an iphone if you want ios, rather than installing the OS on an unsupported device?

Smartphones are not computers...

Well, It looks like the DFT have made a breakthrough (check their twitter @cotullacode). It looks like they've patched the spl, which would mean that the possibility is there

well the SPL is certainly a start

now they just need to crack the bootloader, rework the entire OS to be able to run EXEs, crack the system to allow root access to the filesystem to upload a virtual linux FS, compile a working linux kernel, reconfigure the drivers for the screen, buttons, radio, camera, wifi etc, get them all working together.

then we just need to get unlocked devices to run it all.

sorry to sound pessimistic, but i know how long it's taken people to get semi-working versions of android for other handsets which have much larger user-bases than the mozart

as i said, the blackstone STILL isn't working well enough for day-to-day use and they've JUST got the camera working...ish....and that project has been going for about 2 years with MASSES of people on it. That ran WM6 which already had the ability to run EXEs and an accessible filesystem and no root access needed.

i really wouldn't hold your breath for a long time yet

On the other hand though when cotulla managed to get haret to work on the HD2, development really took off. I mean it's only been about 7 months since then and now the HD2 is as stable as the next off the shelf android phone

yes, but the HD2 already had the facility to run custom EXE files and full & free access to the filesystem. Plus again it had a much larger user base than the Mozart - more people working on it.

i bought the mozart for USD 600 and this shi* aint worth that much... even last month it was able to do the simple features like "copy" & "paste".. this is unacceptable!! i regret for the decision i made for a mozart instead of an i4

600USD is expensive from what i understand

anyway - what EXACTLY are your problems with it?

Your sentence : even last month it was able to do the simple features like "copy" & "paste"

makes no sense


did you mean it COULDNT do copy & paste?

it will do as soon as you get the NoDo update - should be any time now.

remember its still a VERY young operating system and it took iOS over a year to get copy&paste functionality too.

The whole thing is evolving - it's very young - and it will only get better over time

if you dont think it's for you then ranting on here isnt going to fix things, sell it and get an iphone if that's what you really want (but i'd recommend against it) or an android system - whatever

tell us exactly what you're problems are and we'll see if anyone knows a workaround - but as i said - it's still a very young system at the moment and there ARE things missing that are coming in the next updates.
