Google Android on Clone Phones

The state of Android running on clone phones, and the impact of Android on the developing world.

Android on Openmoko Phones

Android on a Neo 1973 phone

David J, a reader, points out today: An Openmoko project hacker named Benno seems to have Google Android running on a Neo 1973.  The Neo 1973 was the first phone produced by the Openmoko project, an effort to produce a fully open source phone running Linux.

It ain’t exactly running fast yet, and not everything it working 100%, but I think most of the tricky bits are done.

There’s also an ongoing effort to get Android running on Openmoko’s latest phone, the Freerunner.

Openmoko phones are fairly expensive, but are also powerful, featureful platforms that should suit Android nicely.
