[Q] Windows phone 7 rom on Htc legend

[wand44]

Hey there Devs,
Is it possible to flash a wm7 rom onto the htc legend? Will it work?
Can u guys please port wm7 onto the legend as a rom and not just suggest me to get those launcher apps or a new phone cause I need to use my legend a lil while longer...


Thank you

I personally believe that it is highly unlikely as the mimimum requirements for Windows Phone 7 are the following:

ARM v7 "Cortex/Scorpion" – Snapdragon QSD8X50, MSM7X30, and MSM8X55
Capacitive, 4-point multi-touch screen with WVGA (480x800) resolution
DirectX9 rendering-capable GPU

The HTC Legend does not meet any of the criteria and Microsoft does not support most of the hardware in the Legend so I think it's a no go :/

Nothing has been ported to any other phone yet either, so the Legend is even less likely. The Desire HD has loads more developers and is similar to the HD7, but nobody has found a way yet. It would be like someone porting iOS to an Android phone as it is locked down in the same respect.
