Alternative ROM or Windows CE replacement for f series needed

Posted Feb 14, 2023 · 22:03 UTC#1

Now there is no more support for the f series it would've nice to have the ability to install a alternative is or Windows CE replacement with the ability to run a recent navigation program.

Any thoughts about the possibilities?

Hey Seth,

I'm working on a way to install Linux on the old f-series models. The unit I have is an ft90bt, and in testmode, wince claims that it's running an ARM1136J processor -- basically an ARMv6 processor with (I believe) hard float support.

If it works there will be a wide open world of possibilities.

That would be great. But wince is way lighter then Linux so very curious in regard of the performance.

Succes!
