We had something similar back in the Days with the iPhone 3G which wasn't that great either. The Problem is that Apple used the Minimum Required Ram for iOS back then and claimed it's for better Battery life to have less Ram while it was actually planed obsolescence. Because Android always required more Ram than iOS you won't be happy with Android on an iPhone (at least not on the older Models).
Reminds me the early days of Android when I managed to install 1.6 donut on my old HTC Touch Diamond. It was actually a fully fledged OS, much better than the windows CE based HTC environment, but the battery life was equally as poor. It didn't overheat or anything, it was just gone in about 6 hours.
@@ryoukaipmy iOS 12 iPhone still supports working versions of most apps - iOS 12 runs on phones as old as 2013. iOS 15 supports almost all modern apps, and it works on phones as old as 2015. Apple might be locked down, but their hardware support is miles ahead of Android. Most android phones are cheap and last two years of software support max. The expensive ones are usually just as hard to repair as iPhones are.
It seems like there are a lot of misunderstandings about this topic. This is a Live ROM which will all be reset if the system is restarted. And many apps cannot be installed since the CPU architecture on Apple processors is totally different from most Android devices.
While running different operating systems on various devices is interesting, I think as a software engineer the software aspects on how it is done, detailed aspects, might be the most interesting details. People not knowledgeable in software engineering might not know that this is nothing out of the ordinary, but learning to know why this is possible in the first place might be more interesting?

The main problem with (older) Apple cables, aside from being expensive, is that they have terrible strain relief designs. Look at older cables like Magsafe 1-2, the 30-pin, the Lightning, and the USB-C cables released for Macbooks before the ARM version. Most of them will be damaged right where the cable strain relief is.

I went on Google Play to look for your app and was surprised that you don't offer a free version.

This would be ideal for those who want to purchase a phone in person and test it without having to login and setup your Google account just to test a phone and if it's got a fault then the seller is gonna be annoyed having to wait around for a long time in the middle of no where while you have to reset it again to remove your personal details.

@@od1sseas663 What makes you think that?
They mean because the only android devices they've used or seen are the burner ones from Walmart. @@benjaluth09
@@benjaluth09he probably never touched a flagship android and just used junk disposable low budget androids that can't even make a phone call without lagging, there is a major difference
First time I actually seen a successful install of android on iPhone, of courseHugh Jeffrey did it.
Or just buy an Android to begin with...
There's never a reason to waste your money on apple garbage
Could be worse. Could have bought a Samsung
@@nicko9799 Samsung's are GOATED. I love my S24 Ultra. The S7 was lit (lol) but had a design law. (It's a shame because that phone was a bute).
@@nicko9799and? what brand would you get other than Samsun
In the old days I would concede their stuff was pretty and worthy of a premium. In present day this is not true anymore.
@@nicko9799I actually kinda like samsung lol
It's mainly the skin. I can deal with the bloatware (just plug into my pc and wipe away), but the overall feel is my absolute favorite over all other Android skins
Installing Android as a dual-boot on the iPhone was a real thing in iPhone 2G/3G/3GS era and actually WiFi and Camera worked!
Dude, that was epic. I like your channel.Thank you❤
You STOLE this video idea from BRINGUS STUDIOS -- so disappointed in this video because you're not even giving him credit for the idea. 🤬🤬🤬
Stole? Prove that he knew in advance then maybe you got something there.
The idea of running a competitor's system on a said phone? Even worse, using an existing project?
What are you on about, mate? This accusation makes no sense whatsoever.
@@Lksz-l9kbrother tutorials are not stealing content. It would be if hugh just played the video he used as a guide.
This guy thinks that several people can't have the same idea.
Imagine thinking making a video about running android on an iphone is even remotely new.
This is stuff to do to have fun, just like pol stuffing LS v8 engines on teslas, tesla don’t get mad is just ppl having fun, good luck android trying to be anywhere near iOS IRL. I remember good old days me hacking old iPhone 3GS and 4s with raincheck it was always good ways to have fun and made me feel like a hacker but I was just following tutorials to the letter. Great vid again mate.
This is awesome!
You’re a LEGEND
Really cool! A dual boot would be even better
i love that kind of process.. its remember me 20 years ago when i started on unlock services..
This is really cool! I really want to try this.
everyday I watch your videos, I think to myself. What did apple do to get him THAT mad.
Now all the iPhone needs is expandable storage, a user removable battery and a headphone jack.
It's a shame, when you buy an iPhone or a Samsung Galaxy, you can't put any software of your choice, turn a iPhone to a 100% Android or a Samsung Galaxy turn it to a apple software, it's not fair it's your phone you can do what you like with it, they should let us do it what any software we like to put on there after all we paid for it😢😢
Thanks Jeff for the video I always said, I always admire your videos keep it up😊 thanks again😊
This is actually very cool.
Damn, mad props for still running a Blackberry Keyone
Oh my God, I have heard about this project a few years ago, and I was pretty stuck with it because I was not having an iPhone 7 in hand. I can see that I have been lucky not to have it, since it’s really really complicated. But maybe, one day 😁😁
You mention at the beginning that the iOS version shouldn't matter, but checkrain appears to only support ios 12.3-13.3.1, and i'm having issues trying to get it to work on my 7 running iOS 15.6! any advice for someone with newer ios versions?
Next: swapping a Porsche engine for a lawn mower
I love your 2012 matte screen MacBook Pro 😍
LOL this is wild! 😂 I can't believe we're living in a world where iPhones can run Android. Makes you wonder what other wild hacks are out there. Maybe I should dig out my old iPhone too! 🤔📱
I actually wished you can do like a hackintosh for iPhones/iPads where you use a Android phone/tablet to run it. Would be nice to run some iOS games for that.
Having used a lot of iPhones and a lot of Android phones from flagships from Samsung to mid ranges from xiaomi and oppo I can tell you the Android is a much better experience
Thanks for this interesting video. For me the opposite would be great: iOS on Android smart phones. I guess this will be even harder to achieve.
FINALLY!!!! oh man.. I hope we gonna have android on iPhone 14 . That would be interesting. Gaming.. those chips are insane. But I've never used one cause I can't play the games I want
I remember doing the same thing back in the cydia days, I got android 2.3 running on an iphone 3G it was insane
I went on Google Play to look for your app and was surprised that you don't offer a free version. I understand charging for an app, but I thought as you repair phones you would have released an ad supported version. This would be ideal for those who want to purchase a phone in person and test it without having to login and setup your Google account just to test a phone and if it's got a fault then the seller is gonna be annoyed having to wait around for a long time in the middle of no where while you have to reset it again to remove your personal details.
If you have Android phone, just sideload it as his app doesn’t require any google account or google play services to function
I actually remember a port of Android being aviliable for the iPhone 3G and 3GS. I think it even supported phone calls but i can't remember exactly.
Haha seeing an iphone with android is hilarious but I genuinely would use an iphone as a daily driver if they were shipped with Android from the factory.
Hi nice
First :))
