Android on Intex or Jolla C [not relevant]
Has anyone tried installing android on this device? Do we have a custom recovery for this phone? Any comparisons with Android file/library structure
We have moved to a new Sailfish OS Forum. Please start new discussions there.

Sailfish OS itself has alien dalvik android layer that supports android apps. This is the reason no one bothered to install android on a device that comes with a different OS that already supports android. I could be wrong but I really don't think there is any point installing android on a jolla device. Though a recovery and dual booting with android would be a nice touch!
While the sailfish OS was quite new and innovative, android apps are sluggish. Also there are a few things that i needed to work.
Since this is also based on Linux, the general architecture of this should be similar to an android (partition based). So wanted to check if this is possible.
BTW i am a noob on Linux :-(

Anyway, the low-level structure of the Aqua Fish runs on Android libraries, so it is definitely possible to install it if you know what you are doing, but your best option would be to sell it to someone who wants Sailfish and get another Android device.
