There is Huawei HarmonyOS which I believe aims to be compatible with Android mobile apps but has a different kernel and is not reliant on Google mobile services

  I'm excited to see where HarmonyOS goes. If google had to compete with another mobile OS it would be interesting to see what they do.

  HarmonyOS has nothing to do with Android, besides also supporting Java (proper Java not Android Java dialect), among its official languages. https://developer.harmonyos.com/en/docs/documentation/doc-guides/harmonyos-features-0000000000011907 https://developer.harmonyos.com/en/docs/documentation/doc-gu...

    wrong according to wikipedia, its a direct rip off of android https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HarmonyOS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HarmonyOS Huawei claimed that HarmonyOS is a microkernel-based, distributed OS that is completely different from Android and iOS. [23] However, it was later revealed that HarmonyOS 1.0 was based on Android 9 and supported ADB, the Android Debug Bridge. [24] In September 2020, it was found that HDC, the debug bridge in HarmonyOS 2.0, was again based on ADB. [25][26] A video of HarmonyOS 2.0 developer beta running on mobile was then posted, showing that the beta was just the same as Android 10 and no significant changes have been made in the name of HarmonyOS operating system. [27][28][29][30] The future architecture, however, would be based only on HarmonyOS microkernel, according to the HarmonyOS roadmap.

      This is what matters when the devices hit the road, "The future architecture, however, would be based only on HarmonyOS microkernel, according to the HarmonyOS roadmap".
