[General Questions and Answers] stremax:
IDK but iOS is really integrated with his hardware, the Iphone are not so status of the art tech phone, there are better one, but it run like butter, Android is not so integrated due the fact you can install it on multiple phone, with different features

but for sure I'll never get one

Very simple, it's clouse source :mad:

But, ios can run on htc g2 . lol . I thinks it's ilauncher and lock screen replace

If any other phone were to run iOS it would be the HD2... but anywho i doubt you would see an iOS port. Apple would be on it like angry birds to pigs. Always trying to defeat them but there just seems to be more out there
[General Questions and Answers] LordJummy:
Even better, you should install android on an iPhone. To me that proves which is superior. Open source software will always be morally superior, at the very least :)

[General Questions and Answers] shad0wboss:
as far as i believe, ios is closed source when android is open sourced linux based which makes android to be ported but ios can't...
[General Questions and Answers] Archer:
You can tell you're new here....

No.

No.

I think you should get an iPhone, but that's just a suggestion.

I can't believe I'm recommending this thread to anyone, but here goes...

The following thread is from a guy that wanted to get his Android phone looking and acting as much like an iPhone as possible. He calls it "an authentic taste", but it is not made by Apple - it's just skin. It's still Android underneath and that's not gonna change.

Anyway, have a look at the suggestions (throughout the thread - not just the 1st post) and see if it helps you.

Better yet, get MIUI. It has a very similar look and feel to iOS, but it has a lot more options and functionality. It's also a doddle to completely retheme with just a couple of clicks, so you can get a totally fresh interface as often as you like.

If only, some androids have great hardware but the software side is sad.
[General Questions and Answers] HazzaBlake:
if you want ios get an iphone.

if you want android get an android phone.

if you like both install miui on your android device.

There is no way of installing ios on anything other than a device that was meant to run it in the first place.

[General Questions and Answers] AllGamer:
LOL :D very interesting statement, but it's becoming reality

there's an insanely huge horde of people following MIUI for no good reason IMO (reminds you of Apple? anyone ;) )
[General Questions and Answers] z33dev33l:
I apologize, I'm a phone gamer and android is none too fulfilling in that sense. That paired with ill-optimized software and I don't see the benefit. WP7 is lesser on gaming as well, but I'm a bit of an achievement whore.
[General Questions and Answers] Smith7018:
Jesus, is this forum really only filled with uneducated, over-opinionated, and unhelpful people?

To answer the OP's question; yes and no. It won't be able to run natively, due to the fact that it's closed source. Though, that's never stopped people before. One could write an ARM-based iDevice emulator and it would theoretically boot.

The trials and tribulations of the emulator would be difficult, but here's what would have to be implemented (off the top of my head, of course):

1. CPU (shouldn't be extremely difficult because the host (phone) is ARM-based)

2. Sound

3. Memory (not the worst, especially because an iPhone only has 512 MB RAM)

4. Graphics/Display/Input (shrug)

5. Implement measures to counter device-checks when booting

6. Flash storage (easy)

7. Anything else that I can't think of atm.

So yes, it would be a huge undertaking, but theoretically, it could run in an emulated environment with bad-mild performance. Don't ever expect iOS-like butter, though. The overhead cost of Android is extremely large (my 1 gig RAM usually has 600 MB free to use) and the phones have near identical specs, which makes it difficult for perfect performance due to limited memory/cpu.

I hope this is better than "OMG HAHA I <3 ANDrOID SO MUCH! BOOo APPL AND TEH iPhonE SUX!!!"

EDIT: Also, it is technically possible to create an iOS compatibility layer (like wine), so you could just launch iOS apps. But that's something I know nothing about and would probably be very difficult. You would have to subvert the need for the kernel (it's open source, so who knows if that helps?) and then rewrite all of the frameworks that iOS uses to work on Android. It's a large undertaking, but it would be interesting, none-the-less.
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
Hey thanks for that but his question was answered on the first page. But obviously you felt the need to try and showcase your knowldedge. Good for you. The answer is no.
[General Questions and Answers] z33dev33l:
The difference between an opinion and a fact is that an opinion varies on a person to person basis. If there had been an iOS port on android, I'd have kept my streak for the ability to play those games on such a screen alone. But obviously you felt the need to try and showcase your blind fanboyism. Good for you. The answer differentiates on a person to person basis.
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
No, actually it is not opinion. Are you kidding me? IOS is closed source. You wouldn't be able to build even the simple frameworks for it without the source code. What kind of fool calls answering a question like that blind fanboyism? I didn't say.."no apple sucks". I said it wasn't possible. Please show me where the "blind fanboyism" comes in. I truly feel sorry for you.
[General Questions and Answers] Smith7018:
Erm, did you read anything that I wrote? No one mentioned an emulator or compatibility layer; just that it couldn't be done, iOS was closed source, and a whole lot of opinions on the matter that weren't necessary.

The answer is not no. The answer is "it's possible" but with a monumental amount of work. Here's a link to a person trying to emulate iOS on QEMU. Hell, they got it to boot but couldn't get past the checks. I wasn't "showcasing my knowledge," I was giving the OP an actual answer with facts and knowledge as a backing versus opinions. Just because an iOS hardware emulator would be difficult, that doesn't make it impossible. Creating great and innovative software isn't easy but that doesn't make it impossible.

You really think that's a good answer as to why this can't happen? Think. Is Windows 7 open source? Is OSX open source? Do they both run exceptionally well in a virtualized environment? Yes.
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
In that link they are only trying to do it on Apple devices, so I really don't see the relevance. And running in an emulator, and dual booting are 2 completely different things.
[General Questions and Answers] z33dev33l:
He asked if anyone would be interested in such a thing, not if it could be done. As far as I know, iOS 2 was largely ported to a device on XDA, I'm sure someone will know the name of the project but back then I was a winmo fanboy and iOS was stupid so I didn't pay much attention.
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
Stop playing dumb z33. He clearly asked if it could be done as you can see in the bold part of the quote from the OP. How are you going to lie on page 3 of a thread when the truth is 20 posts back? Go ahead, throw some lame excuse out now. Lost and confused...as usual.
[General Questions and Answers] Smith7018:
Sigh, there are two problems with what you're saying.

1. QEMU is open source and ported to Linux, OSX, Windows, and more. All he's doing is adding support for iOS' chipsets. Hell, the mission statement is to get it working on other iOS-based devices.

2. No one mentioned dual booting here. The OP simply asked if one could get iOS running on Android's platform. He didn't mention dual booting; you did. Virtualization is an extremely logical possibility. The original iOS devices had 256 MB and used a 320x480 screen. These limitations are nothing and would provide for a semi-decent experience.

These aren't excuses, these are facts, sorry bro.
[General Questions and Answers] z33dev33l:
clearly states that he asks himself that. The main point of the post is asking if anyone would be interested in it.
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
Seriously. You are lost. He says nothing of interest. He said he googled it and couldnt find an answer, and wanted to know what we thought. He clearly didn't google if there was INTEREST in this topic. I guess you are the only one in the thread who understood what the OP was saying then...

---------- Post added at 03:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:49 PM ----------

Fact-a virtualization does not have full functionality. So you would not actually be getting IOS 5. You would be getting a semi-functional clone.
[General Questions and Answers] OTMOPO3OK:
ugh. burn it with fire :D
[General Questions and Answers] Smith7018:
I'm sorry, but you have absolutely NO idea what you are talking about, and you instead make insults and come up with fake reasons to discount what I said.

Install VMWare on OSX. Boot up a dual-core Win7 VM with 4 Gigs RAM and everything bridged to it in full-screen mode. Now, find someone and tell them to use it for 5 hours. After the allotted time, if you ask them what they were using, they most likely would've said a Windows computer. Know why? There isn't fairy dust sprinkled over Windows and OSX; it's because the processor being emulated is the same as the host. Funny how the iPhone and many Android phones share ARM processors, eh?

This wouldn't be a "clone." That would be what MIUI is attempting to do (in some facet). This would be a virtualized solution. It's really not difficult to grasp why this is possible and how it is a good option. Go look up the benefits of running a virtualized OS; much much much better security; an environment separate from hardware if something goes wrong; if needed, there would be snapshots to resume sessions; over time, you could even devote MORE ram to iOS than Apple wants there to be; etc.

This is all beyond the point, though. It would still be very tedious and extremely difficult.
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
Here you go killer http://phandroid.com/2011/09/16/iem...or-android-has-officially-been-cancelled-rip/ the project is dead. They cancelled work on it 2 weeks after they started...wonder why? Hmm, probably because it is impossible.
[General Questions and Answers] Smith7018:
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cmwdotme/iemu-an-open-source-ios-device-emulator/posts

You're grasping at straws and making extrapolations. It's not impossible. Anything can be emulated with the right hardware, time, knowledge, reverse engineering, and drive. It will never be easy.

Why are you too stubborn to admit that, while tiny, there is a chance that iOS could run on Android hardware and that this is the proper answer to OP's question? I'm tired of discussing this with you, because you can't seemingly teach a fifth grader calculus. You can't teach someone something they don't want to hear. Please, continue to counter my completely legitimate reasoning with your feelings and false assertions on the matter. I'm gonna get back to developing.
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
Is it possible? Yes. There is a miniscule chance. Will it happen? No. So take it for what it's worth.
[General Questions and Answers] z33dev33l:
One of the biggest issues that we sadly encounter in the forums these days.
[General Questions and Answers] lowandbehold:
Get out of here troll. You don't even know what the OP was asking, so you should not even be in this conversation.
[General Questions and Answers] Kailkti:
Of course it's possible, anything is possible. But it's the chances of possibility that deem it worthwhile, or even "possible", hence iOS is impossible. Yes we can reverse engineer things, but reverse engineering something like iOS isn't even worth it.
[General Questions and Answers] z33dev33l:
A. Again, that's an opinion. The OP asked if you were jealous of iOS users and such first, then proceeded to say that he asked himself if it was possible. Soon after, he asked what you think. That said, none of this was in anything resembling proper English, so it could be considered speculation on all accounts.

B. I know exactly what I'm talking about. Working ports were shown minus working radio on devices as early as the g1. Of course it couldn't pass all checks and apple took legal action quickly and it was never revealed as to how it was achieved.
[General Questions and Answers] Archer:
I'm sick of all of you children whining at each other to see who's got the biggest manhood. You're all as bad as each other, regardless of your preferred platform.

You lot are spoiling a great forum for the vast majority. Go any play somewhere else, preferably where there's a lot of fast-moving traffic.

And just in case my disdain at this childishness isn't clear enough, I hope my request for this troll-fest to be closed helps you understand.

Hi all,

Would it be possible to develop/modify the lockscreen that the default circle lockscreen can be overlayed over the lock pattern as it used to be in CM7 for example?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jd1001:
I haven't seena nything mentioned on this but I would like that option too.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zombieflanders:
I don't know if it's exactly what you're looking for, but WidgetLocker lets you customize your lockscreen out the wazoo. You can not only have a different wallpaper for your lock screen, but it has themes (including ICS stock), 4-way unlock, a modifiable interface, and as the name says widgets installed directly on your lock screen.

Doesn't make sense since many people flashed the RPM seperately last time with the OTA back then in xHausx's thread, and had zero issues.

The deodexed version is just the ROM/Kernel...you will need to flash the radios/firmware through bootloader. Flash the radio/firmware first (make sure and use Freeza's all in one) then flash the deodexed version. All this assumes you have hboot 1.4.
