Rule of thumb (mine at least) is at least 1gzh processor and at least (preferred) 512mb plus rom space and 256mb ram. The e61i is woefully under powered with 22omhz. You would need to have the radio drivers and a bootloader that works on the nokia. I have messed with the HTC HD2 installing android 4.0 on it and even windows phone 7.5 (in a fit of madness). The reason I even attempted these hacks was cause I found that the android and windows HTC versions had EXACTLY the same hardware so it was only a matter of finding the radio driver and bootloaders. It is fun challenging and often requires SERIOUS OCD to not eff it up 10 or more times before succeeding. It is like Linux was in the late 90s except I do not have to compile stuff from source and most of the hardware drivers are either done or actively being worked on. If you have a Sony Xperia device (especially the abandoned ones from 2011) then the FreeXperia project is where it is at. Most others go to miui (iPhone fans) and Cyanogenmod for the others. These are the two most stable and healthy rom modding communities. If you like the tall grass, xdadevelopers is where it is at (beware, it is like the bbs of old. ONLY BIG BOYS and RUGGED egos)
