No, it's not possible.

This has been discussed and tried many times, but it will not work.

+1

An OS can only be installed on the device it was intended for

With a few tweaks it will 'work' except for the browser and wifi...

**Before we got the first leaked OS6 build for the 9700 I got a 9780 OS to load (had a radio file for os6/9700 tho) but the browser didn't work.

Lol, that's a hybrid

we call that a full java swap.
You should read the link in my sig, hybriding basics, and crank us out a hybrid lucky

It was a little more involved then that - had to tweak the .alx file and include some OS5 .cod files...

I've made a couple hybrids in the past (for myself & staff) and would love to make one for the CB forums...,but I don't think I could handle all the "feels snappy" and "browser is faster" feed back.

Lol, that's a normal part of hybrid building

Those aren't too bad. What is annoying is the "How do I install this on my mac" PMs
