It is really impractical for one thing. The hd2 was a windows mobile device with a completely different bootloader. I believe they were able to use a modified bootloader to do it. We would need to somehow port over the bootloader from the Samsung focus. Unfortunately modifying bootloaders is very dangerous. If it doesn't work you brick. We would brick a lot of devices. So with the price we pay for the bricked phones we might as well buy a Samsung focus.

Wrong section perhaps for such a question?
The basic approach, or concept if you may, in my opinion, is completely opposite.
Like comparing apples to oranges.
HD2 is a Windows Phone to which Android was ported for dual-boot.
Where as, Nexus S is an Android phone and to port Windows Phone 7 to it would be an entirely different ball game.
Even to try dual booting.
Doubt if it'd be a worthwhile effort.
One can never really say.
Probably a far better idea to try and port Android to the Samsung Focus than do Phone 7 on the Nexus S.
As soon as you can talk Microsoft into open-sourcing the WP7 platform it will be done. The main reason Android was ported to the HD2 is because Android is open source and it made it possible.
This idea has been proposed before on XDA for another phone, and the thread was shut down due to it being illegal.
First of all sorry for my bad english.
Can you provide any information about port ubuntu in nexus s. Where is the progress and what can this serve?
If you want this thread to stay you really need to move it or a mod will close it.

I dont think there is dev enough to do that, and i think we need the SD card to Dual boot. Bot maybe its possible to port WP7, but we need a dev that want to work on it.
But hey! Its sound awesome to have WP7 on NS, is miss it alot from my old HD2 (sold now
)
It's possible if it is not on XDA. it is illegal and considered piracy as WP7 is closed source, android is open source software so you can modify.

I don't think that's ever the nexus s will have WP7.
All WP7 devices has the same hardware, the Snapdragon CPU, same RAM etc..
The Omnia 7 also as well.

The new Mango update fully supports the Nexus S hardware, but I doubt it will be available for a number of reasons, the 2 best reasons being:
1: It's closed source
2: Unless we got an unbrickable thing like the captivate, I doubt we would come far anyway, or at least we would need many Nexus S devices.
