Curious: has this even been tried? I would assume Apple SoC's require binary drivers, so even though they are similar to Android phones on a hardware level it might be difficult or impossible to even get an Android port to boot.
Hell, it can be difficult to get an unsupported version of Android to work without major bugs on an Android phone.
- comex 13y agoIt was tried a few years back: http://www.idroidproject.org http://www.idroidproject.org They had to rewrite the drivers, of course.
- derefr 13y agoImportant to point out: the authors of iDroid stopped, but not due to any technical obstacle; it was mainly because iDroid was a hobbyist project and their lives intervened. Someone else could pick up the effort today, if they wanted.
