Hello,
Recently, I have installed Sailfish OS 2.0.5.6 on my Fairphone 2. It's a very cool thing! I would like to install the Android Support - but I can't find it. It should be available in the Jolla Store, isn't it? However, I found nothing in the store by typing "Android Support".
Thank you for your help!

Android support is supported (duh) only on official phones released by jolla or partners that pay and not community ports.
In other words no Android for you.

Ok, thank you for your answer... Altough this support is important for me, I really like Sailfish OS.
Does somebody know, if a solution for Fairphone 2 users is coming in the near future?
sfdroid, but i don't know if it's only available for nexus5, or also for fairphone. just search on talk.maemo.org :)

Android Support is like Microsoft Exchange Active Sync and XT9 Text Prediction - commecial parts, which are only on the official SailfishOS Devices. Fairphone 2 has a very good and stable SailfishOS Port, but its still not official. We all are waiting, that Jolla will release the commercial parts of SailfishOS (including Alien Dalvik) in their Jolla Store as paid apps.
