Hi !
Based on this : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Xanadux
What d u think, is it possible to have Android on our Himalaya device??
For those who doesnt know Android: http://code.google.com/android/index.html
As i do understand from the existing infos (google forums and the wiki above) if somebody smart enough may run NOW the Android on hima...
Am i right, am i wrong or am i just dreaming??
whoa!!! 10 million dollars?! that's fantastic!
I am waiting the good news from the master of HIMA
The official facts say:
Will ANDROID run on (insert phone here)? No.
Having said that, the OS is based on open source linux and the programs on java. The hima can already handle java apps, so that is one step in the right direction.
As for the os, linux on a hima might be a bit different (yes I am aware of the above mentioned hima linux os). It really all depends if they tailor the code to upcoming phones and backwards compatible or just for upcoming phones.
There facts section suggests the latter.
SymbianOS ?
Hi folks,
and what about SymbianOS ? I read an official statement from 2001 that Symbian and Intel concluded a cooperation agreement about the port of Symbian OS to StrongARM/XScale ...
The statement (german) :

So long
HonkBB
does it only run java progs ?
judging from the speed diff between .net and java apps on wm
compared to native progs
that would be pretty slow
Hi all,
Just read an artice on the hack of Google's impressive Android mobile OS. Hackers have used files from the emulator and installed the OS on some Linux phones. I was just thinking that there was a post on this forum saying that Linux could be Installed on Magician. Also Android uses Linux's kernal. So why not give Android a try. Would be great to use the new Android on Magician.
Any clues on how to proceed with the Installation ?
Is it really? I listen about porting on only Linux-PDA but Magican isn't Linux-PDA.
Of course, Android can run on the Magician, BUT never forget that you need drivers for the device - even for Linux!
And that's the problem: if you don't have any information about the chipset etc you will need month or even years to develop them.
If you want to run Linux on the Magician, there is already a project which try to develop drivers for Linux. Last time I read from their progress Linux runs on the Magician with the possibility to use the phone (but no GPRS)...
Use the search if you are interested;-)

It is http://www.handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/Magician , isn't it?
So If Linux can be installed, then Android can also be installed. Because it supports all Linux compatible devices according to the hack.
For the DRIVER part, pls check the official Android website-
http://code.google.com/android/
and let us know. Waiting for your reply...
Thanks!
Peoples - a hve WORKING linux on my HTC magician.
name is Angstorm with GUi OpenMoko.
Work - tochscreen,Sound,GSM,blootuth.
thet meens - drivers are exist and work
Can anybody say, where i can download Google's Androuid for ANY platform ?
I'm Find =) Android For Zaurus
it seems to me, For using rootfs on magician we mast change drivers in it
http://www.omegamoon.com/blog/static.php?page=ZaurusAndroid
As me say one man, it takes compiling magican's drivers using Google android SDK.
Some useful links

Angstrom на Qtek s110 -> http://grigio.org/howto_openmoko_htc_magic...dual_boot_wince
Немного о портировании для OMAP -> http://elinux.org/Android_on_OMAP
Sory for my English =)
does anyone know how to actually download the Android platform? regardless of phone model or drivers? or is it just included in the SDK and you gotta compile it yourself? If I can somehow get my hands on a copy of the image I'll probably end up spending the next 3 weeks trying to flash it natively into the ROM
The Android sources can found on this page: http://code.google.com/p/android/downloads/list
It is only kernel. Without drivers.
Found a new article for search on "Android on HTC", got this:
Android Kernel Found, Android on HTC Kaiser imminent
It says, that the kernal works only on MSM7200A chipset for now.
Take a look, link: http://fandroid.net/content/android-kernel-found-android-htc-kaiser-imminent
what i cannot understand is:
if there is an working linux kernel (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=MagicianXanadux) than android should be executable also!?
All necessary driviers shold be available.
So why should it be impossible to have a running android on a Magician?
cheers
aitsch
p.s.: the Magician is a very fast device. maybe android is running well on it.
UPDATE: Google has released a new version of Android, v0.9
Any updates on running Andriod on Magician ?
I could run Linux (Openmoko) successfully.
yea! Android 1.0 it very good
we need this
linux can run on a magician and u can use phone on it but no sms and it's full of bug's
Hi all,
I have tried to download the angstrom linux and follow the instruction from this site http://linuxtogo.org/~ph5/magician/....
but I always had kernel panic when start booting the linux, after then I found out the unzipping wasn't successful there is an error occurred during unzipping.
Does anyone ever encounter the error when unzipping? your help would be much appreciated. thank you

w00t!
I for one cannot wait to boot winCE on my Magician! Id love to put ANDROID on it! from what it looks like they are only 80% done!
I have opie II running on magician (http://linuxtogo.org/~htcpxa/htcmagician/)
and it runs perfectly (except a little bug eith the menu).
And here is a list what works in linux (http://www.handhelds.org/moin/moin.cgi/Magician)so android should work

Interesting, I'll take a look! What are the bugs you personally notice?
Hi,
I would like to test the roms I can find here, on an emulator.
for that, I will need something like the SDK for the Acer tablet A500.
(to build my AVD)
I can't find it. anyone have an idea where I can find it ?
thanks
Olivier
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=android+sdk
ah ah ah . so fun )
unfortunatly, it is not provided by google !
I know well the android SDK, I am talking about a small part which is sometime provided by constructor in order to help the developper to build application with android SDK.
for example, Sony provides the SDK part for some of its device. it has to be added to the android SDK.
I think it could comes from Acer, or developer who has it because they are working near or far from this (in the same way, the Leak comes from someone which is near from developer team)
I am still looking for that.
thanks
Olivier
Im totally confused as to what you are looking for.. If its reference sdk from acer . They have not provided this.. I think its something they provide to google then google adds it to the sdk. or acer will provide a repo to add to your sdk.
now here is what setup i have..
1 download the sdk tools from developer.android.com/sdk i think is the url (use search )
2. download eclipse (there is a link on the developer.android.com site)
3 download the correct FULL Java library abe sure to read the requirements on the version of eclipse you use for what jave version you need )
4 Read read READ .. Read the how to install sdk development environment in Eclipse for your EXACT OS . Pay close attention to every detail. like is is x86 x64 and so on.
5 Follow the instructions word for word on again the install and setup for android development platform for your OS Version.
This is what i use as well as CYGWIN (this is for advanced users) As well as there are other tools that make developing much easier. YES IM NEW TO all of this as well.But have learned alot over the last year.
The above only gets you ready. Once you get to this point . KEEP . WELL YOU KNOW THIS Part already KEEP READING.. in a few weeks you will on your way.
GOOD LUCK developer.android.com has everything your asking and beyond.
If any of the above is incorrect Blame it on developer.android.com or the mighty thor. god of the universe..
I need some help.
It looks like the latest Admob only supports Android 2.3 or newer but I am developing an app that needs to run on Android 2.1 and newer.
I tried to look for a slightly older version of the API but couldn't find a place to download it anywhere. Does anyone have a copy of the admob API that will work
with with Android 2.1? Or any good alternatives?
Thanks
I need help or some one can point me to the right direction.
One of my employee give me Nokia lumia 1520 window 8.1 he ask me If I can put Androids app to this phone. I never root this type of phone before ( only Samsung phone). Can some one tell me what I need to download or send me a link what steps I need to do in order to root and install android apps on this phone if is possible.
thanks in advance.
No dude. You cant install Android on Windows Phone. You need to buy Android Phones for that. In earlier versions of Wp10 it was possible but not now

Something close is possible, You can install Appx File.... It's the Universal Apps : there might be some that have be converted from android to Windows phone.. Just google Appx Downloads and see if you can find something he wanted. If so, that is what is possible. The previous : A Older version of Windows on the phone had a special file/command, whatever you wish to call it. """Bash""". It allowed Linux to run on windows. Sadly they removed this, it would give programmers to do things Microsoft did not want to happen.

I think what you meant was sideloading apk using adb in W10 build 10149 . The Exploit which allowed more or less sandboxing of Android app. It Ran the basic Android Apps which didnt have much dependency on Google Play services and more in use by Project Astoria.That means if an android app that required the GMaps plug-in would crash in W10M. Well that's basically not possible now as they removed the Linux Subsytem. You cant install Android Apps now on Windows 10 (btw Nowadays which dev is spending time on Lumia devices? ) I dont think there would be more development of Windows 10 mobile in future as they have shown that Full blown Windows 10 would soon run on ARM devices which has SD835 or more( Just think SD835+6GB RAM+LQS)That would be amazing. But Microsoft Doesnt have the Required no. of Apps in store (Admitting, UWP was not a great success) and enough market share. But dev's like @feherneoh and @banmeifyouwant have done great thing in porting Android to SG Lumias. :cyclops:
feherneoh said:
SD835 might be a great SoC, but we'll have to wait and see. But that will give us x86 Windows apps, not Android
Yeah, there is the 52X port, but note that we have no connectivity at all....

Atleast if the perfomence if fine on SD835 soc , I Mean more than 2.5Ghz and enough page memory, I Think running or emulating Android apps would be smooth.Moreover if its full fledged Win10 the bootloader stuff Etc. would be easier to unlock and build Android for that. Yeah as you said we have to wait and see.
Yeah, Connectivity is major barrier on L52X Android Ports. If you guys could solve that, L52X Android port would the topic of debate and hopefully open the doors for future development. Good luck with connectivity though. Anyway you guys have done a great work on dead Lumias
