So, iDroid is far from complete but it’s a really interesting project.
Android installer for apple ios without bootlace install#
iDroid doesn’t have access to the Android Market, but there are other ways to install apps. Still, a well-designed Android launcher can take care of that problem. Right now, the iPhone’s home key is mapped to Android’s menu key, the Power key serves as back, volume up is call key and volume down is the Home key. There’s no good solution for some hardware incompatibilities – namely the keys. But the problem with it is you should have a computer to run the whole process of installing Android on your iPhone 2G/3G. iPod Touch 1G support is almost done and iPhone 4 is still in the very early stages.Īnyway, once you have OpeniBoot and install Bootlace, you’ll be able to install (an upgrade) iDroid without a computer. Probably the most easiest way to install Android on an iPhone 2G /3G is via iPhoDroid, which we did cover previously. Or if your device is not supported you’ll want to keep an eye on this page – it lists the progress iDroid (that’s the name of Android for the iPhone) on different devices. You can follow this installation guide if you want to give it a shot.
Marrying Android and the iPhone is not a new affair, but it’s only now that hard-working developers have come up with a an easy, seamless way of installing it. You have to keep in mind this is as unofficial as it gets (Apple is not exactly known for supporting the hacking community) and the Android port for the iPhone is not full baked either – there’s no power management, for instance, so your battery will run flat pretty quickly. You don’t need a computer to do it either… If you have a jailbroken iPhone 2G or 3G you can install Bootlace 2.1 and run Froyo way earlier than some actual Android smartphones.
Some developers have snuck in and created Steve Jobs’ worst nightmare – Android 2.2 Froyo port for the iPhone.
