HTC with FreeBSD

If even possible, process would be very painful (at least for someone asking that kind of question). In best case scenario, you'd get a working system running in your device's memory. Which you would interface via serial console. If that cellphone has a serial console.

FreeBSD does not have drivers for those touchscreen displays and other gimmick a modern smartphone has. Even if it had, it doesn't have a GSM/CDMA baseband code.
 
I think that to run any OS in an HTC phone, you need to cook a customized ROM, and mess with something called HardSPL... I read it somewhere, google it
 
Which isn't really hard to do. I'm running custom cooked firmware on my HD2 :e
 
Yeah, I've been running CM7 (this variant) on my HD2 for a week now. A little rough (plus that I've not used to Android), but much, much better that WM6.5 on the HD2, IMHO.
