Windows 95/98/XP and Linux comes to the HTC EVO 3D

(Before It's News)

I never really gave thought to why anyone would want the same OS that is running their desktop to run their phone. So I decided to take 3 minutes and 46 seconds to think about it, and I concluded with, “putting Windows or Linux on our phones would be awesome just because we can.” I would be one of those guys that would do it just to show it off to people. The ego comes with a hacked Android phone.

XDA senior member mnomaanw has posted a pretty simple method to getting Windows 95/98/XP and Linux onto an HTC EVO 3D. It is as easy as  downloading the software, modifying a file to run the apk, and booting it up. Controls to making your adventure better go as followed:

  • It emulate touchpad on touchscreen and left/right mouse buttons on volume
  • You can also click touch screen to generate mouse left button click.(this does not work everytime)
  • Back = BackSpace, Menu = Enter, left-upper corner click generates TAB
  • left-lower corner click popups keyboard

I think if I were to give this a try I would definitely run Windows XP, because Windows 95 and 98 flat-out just suck. I think we all can nod in agreement on that, so if you own an HTC EVO 3D, give the link down below a shot.
