How To Install Android On Your iPhone Using Bootlace
Android was successfully ported to the iPhone earlier in the year. If you want to checkout Android then you can now install it on a jailbroken iPhone 3G and iPhone 2G thanks to a jailbreak app called Bootlace available on the Cydia App Store. Bootlace makes it quite easy to...

Wat abt 3GS...neone tried it yet..??
-
It works only on iPhone 3G and iPhone 2G currently.
-
Is it fully functional yet?
-
No, it's just for testing yet. Lots of things, like for e.g. standby, doesn't work. In my case, it took ~20% battery in 15 minutes.

will this ever work for mc models like itouch 2g mc

CAN MAKE CALL BUT CAN'T RECIEVED ANY CALL..

Wont work with 3G jailbroken with SnowBreeze... So if you have 4.1 and you need to unlock, there is only one tool as i know to preserve old baseband and for that it's snowbreeze which is not good for all iDroid installation tools i try... :/
So there is some JB tool requirements... you can find it on iDroid wiki.
-
Why exactly? I understand the desire to hack and make things work but I don't believe this could ever be a better offering than a jailbroke iOS..
My opinion anyways.

I have a 3g and JB with latest Redsnow and it says compatibilitiy issue when running bootlace.
-
Will it update to Android 3.0?
-
OK I GET THE HINT. THERE IS A CAPS LOCK BUTTON YOU MIGHT CONSIDER HITTING NEXT TIME YOU TYPE.
-
I did this with a 2g months ago. It sucks.. the android port is nowhere near ready.
You will find yourself bored with it about an hour after the installation is completed.

For all of you village idiots who can't use their noodles, this is more of a novelty type thing. Do you know very many people who can say " hey my iPhone can run android ****". And obviously it's a work in progress so don't expect it to work 100% correctly. It's android on an iPhone for fucks sake.

Would love to have a dual booting iPhone 4, that would be so bad :) android and the retna display, voice dictation, and all kinds of other goodies apple has denied me of, so Google should really get on this, I'm sure it would just chap Steve's hide haha
-
thank you,
there is at least one sane person here.
-
I did this a while ago..its a fun little thing to do if you have an iPhone lying around.
It's slow, it's buggy..its on a mission to burn my hand...but yeah, its WIP...even if it never becomes something serious, its great to play around with.there is another method, iPhoDroid...not necessarily better, but just as simple. both are great (i have tried both). i did find iPhoDroid to be slightly faster.

2g iphone 3.1.3---got in a loop with iDroid trying to load. Spent all day trying workarounds, and finally doing a complete restore of the corrupted 2G. I have jailbroken and unlocked at least 20 iphones (2g,3g, 3gs); and I don't recommend this unless you are willing to take the risk, like all the disclaimers say. :-)

Well new Redsnow uses limerain which is why it didnt work. Used older redsnow and now iDroid works fine. Surprised it works pretty good actually cant wait till they make it a full OS port.
-
Can't be done using limerain
-
Well... I need this because of PS3 JB. I can only hack my PS3 with iDroid or LINUX inside my 3G or I need to buy USB dongle... so this is a serious reason why wee need it and not only for fun to mess with different systems and feel like a "hackers" :)
-
Thanks for giving details of Bootlace. Bootlace have so much services that helpful to unlock iphones.
-
i install it yesterday. it looks good but its too slow. would say its useless to even try it.
-
THANKS, IT MAKES TYPING SO MUCH EASIER NOW!
-

-
Ugraded to 4.1 and jailbroke with redsn0w 0.9.6b2. Bootlace says jailbreak not compatible. Anyone know how to resolve this now phone is on 4.1?
-
Well, i have installed it many times, but cannot receive calls. It is dead
I cannot make calls -
I had the same problem, try redsn0w "0.9.6b1" it worked for me
-
Lol im doing it for the same reason :D
-
