I don't think you have to reverse engineer an open source operating system...

  At this point Android is as open source as Windows.

    Please point me at anything that resembles source code that I can compile to produce a bootable variant of Windows.

      I think the GP was trying to say: just as Windows isn’t OSS, neither is Android anymore because of all the proprietary blobs and the Play Store

      Please point me at anything that resembles source code that I can compile to produce Play services.

        I was not aware Play Services was required to run Android. I have test phones that run Android without Play Services just fine. How does that make Androids open source status anywhere near Windows?

      It might be against site rules.
