WinDroid (Blending The Windows Mobile and Android Phones)

Dual-booting has been fairly common in computing technology, where a computer system is been installed with two different operating systems, and user can choose which OS to start on system boot up. But dual-boot has never been a possible scenario for smartphone or mobile phone, where OS is tightly integrated with firmware in ROM, until a developer named yozgatg released Gen.Y DualBOOT, the dual boot solution for Windows Mobile devices with XDANDROID.

With Gen.Y DualBOOT, mobile devices can be easily booted into both Windows Mobile (WM or WinMo) or Android. Gen.Y DualBOOT works by launching itself at boot by creating and setting a registry key in [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init] that been triggered after shell gets initialized. Read more

Install Android SDK and play an Android 2.0 in the emulator

Google has released the Android 2.0 SDK as of October 27th, 2009. We know how eager everyone has been to get their hands on Android 2.0, so we have decided to write up instructions so that anyone may download and install the SDK, then create and run an emulator instance.

Note, the emulator is not intended to duplicate any particular device, so treat this more as a look at some of the core new features of Android 2.0 than an emulation of any current or future device. Also, things that require hardware features are not available in the emulator. No multi-touch in here guys (unless you manage to get two mice to work?).

Enough of the talk, let’s get down to business.

1)      Download appropriate file for your system from http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

2)      Extract to desired location

3)      Run “SDK Setup.exe” (or the equivalent for your system) Read more
