WM6.1 standard rom?

---

I've posted a thread about installing standard on a ppc.

Its been proven that you can install professional on a smartphone. I was wondering if you could do it the other way around.

Ivan, Itje, Papamopps, ttran, other cooks- any ideas?

you would obviously be missing the touchscreen, so what;s the point?

if your touchscreen is broken, you can't get past the alignment screen

but usually the touchscreen gets broken together with the screen itself, so you'd need a repair anyway.

Plus I think that wm6 prof's touchscreen ability really adds a lot of extra usability, so i would always get it repaired.
anyway, i was asking what is the point of trying to get prof on a wm6 standard device? you would miss the touchscreen so you are missing out on a lot of functionality, plus a lot of programs are completely not designed to not use the screen, thus leading to excessive key presses

Actually, I have seen a wings touchscreen go bad without damage to the physical screen.

Also, while there would be more keypresses, there would also be an added benefit of using more powerful programs if one could get pro on their smartphone device.

So, yeah, going to have to disagree with you twice there...

Jline, i assume you mean smartphone on your pro device. Anyway, theoretically, everything WOULD run faster, depending on the kind of pull the program wants.

I personally would like it because i find the wm pro interface a bit clunky and slow and i don't want to install all kind of software that ultimately makes it slower.

okey dokey! got some info from l3v5y about this

he says you can cook a rom with smartphone's core and oem and ppc's sys folders. The trick is, i believe, to use a core from a device that has a qvga screen. That would mean a wings or a juno (both have slideout keyboards and the wings is practically in ppc configuration anyway. the juno doesnt have the number pad, though, which the wings does)

...this could mean Neo on the Wing! haha That would be pretty amazing.

hmm... just the idea of Neo might make me actually create this ROM... I was thinking of creating a phone less one, as well... for people who have a broken radio or don't have it with a provider and want it as a PDA. But of course... I'm already in more projects that I have time to work on... Which reminds me... I haven't finished my application to the university I'm transfering to next semester.... umm... yea...

I can see this project as easily achieveable..but how would rotation work? That is one thing that baffles me. This should definietly be taken somewhere. I'd lose my touchscreen for neo...maybe. Or someday get a Shadow 2. hm..
