Atrix Dual booting

[sk8trix]

so yea onhce again I post the same question...and I've read several places its impossible but I wonder....there are people who always find a way anyways.
Is it possible to dual boot with the Atrix?
can I run android and another mobile Os?
Is there a downside if it is possible?

It seems to me that it's not gonna be possible, as long as the bootloader remains locked. It's a good thought, though. I'd love to try out the H-P/Palm WebOS on my Atrix!

Ya dual booting would be pretty awesome. If you dual boot an iOS do you get the app store? And would the apps play fine? Don't hate..

yes! Webos on this beast of a phone would be awesome. How has palm/hp not yet realized that they need to release webos on killer hardware if they want to avoid webos dying a slow painfull death?

Apologies to sk8trix for hijacking his thread, but...

I've been a Palm device owner since the HandSpring. And I still have old HandSpring, here. So, Palm and I go back a ways. But I'm convinced that Palm is now in it's final death spiral, at the hands of a clueless H-P. They lost too much momentum, and it's too late in the game for a come-back. As super cool as WebOS is, it's still nothing more than a beta release. H-P is a serious profit-making business, and when this current effort falls flat(which it will), they will simply turn out the lights on Palm/WebOS, write off their investment, and prolly go with Android. Exactly the same thing which I did, when I walked away from my Pre and bought an Atrix.

The people I feel the most sorry for are the app developers, who got sucked in by Palm's utterly inept management.

yea its cool I just basically wanted to hear some thoughts,besides it really sucks that we cant dual boot this phone because it would really be great.Running android and windows or iOs just for the heck of it.

 

[Conor18]

Do you think we would get dual booting if they crack the bootloader?

 

[sk8trix]

I really wish cause with dual core imagine the possibilities....oh man

 

[Conor18]

:O---- we could make the iOS look even worse by running it twice as fast on our own android devices xD

 

[sk8trix]

Haha nah id throw windows on there screw i os lol

Unlock it yourself now. See the root hack section, there are instructions.
