this has already been discussed on other sites, and is actually a clone of iOS, not a port. considering they're different screen sizes, different resolutions, entirely different hardware... this is no doubt a clone or theme designed to look like iOS (though very elaborate and detailed one)

Why would someone do something like this to a poor unsuspecting Android phone
Oh the calamity!

It's either an awesome clone or it's a really well timed video.

Yes, but no one has the source code to iOS 4 to be able to port it.

actually they are NOT both linux based. Android is Linux based (and I think most of it is released under the apache license except for the kernel which is GPL). iOS is BSD based, both of which are *NIX-like environments, but not the same.
but as stated, there is no source code available to get iOS working on android hardware. considering all the massive technical differences (including something as simple as screen resolution on the HTC Magic which doesn't even have a dedicated GPU I think), it seems at least ridiculously unlikely this is genuine iOS4

Think you mean Unix.

Why even do this? If you want an Iphone4, why not just get one?

This is definitely NOT iOS. The processor architecture, drivers, and other low-level garbage would definitely not work.

The chinese have been making knock off phones AND knock off OS for years. I would think this is just some OS that looks like iOS. If it is real iOS, they must have built some virtual environment to boot it in.
But why? Who wants iOS - i made the switch for a reason.

I wouldn't mind a dual-boot iOS on my captivate to show off, and enjoy all those high quality games!

The processor architecture shouldn't be an issue right? The iPhone 4 runs on the same processor as our Captivate. They are the same down to how the processor handles and processes code.
I agree with you on drivers. It took forever for them to get android running on my TP2 because of the driver incompatibilities. Some of them had to be rebuilt, but they at least had an idea how to build them... since they had the code to Android.
I wouldn't mind being able to boot into iOS from my Captivate. Why not? More functionality is more power. For instance, we just got Angry Birds recently on Android in a "beta" stage, we could have been running that before if iOS worked. Same with tons of other games and apps.

Would love it if it were true...Mainly because I just want SOME way to run a Netflix app on my phone!!

It's fake. Missing folder animations and alot of other animations. I It's been confirmed as a Chinese Android skin..

It's very sluggish, even for a skin. Who the heck would want a slow iOS style skin on their Android?

Well that is only a mytouch 3g they are using. That phone feels slightly more sluggish than an iphone 3g and iOS 4.0 runs just as bad on a 3g. Not a fast phone at all.
I don't really think this is a skin. There's too much iOS specific things going on. Like the settings menu, the dialer flipping for keypad, all the status bar things being in the right place, ipod controls on the multitasking menu.
This could come in handy. My only complaint about switching from iPhone to Android is there are more well done apps for iPhone. Alot of big companies treat Android like an afterthought, though that is starting to change it seems.

[Q] Install iPhone OS on an Android Phone?

I was wondering if you can install the iPhone OS on an Android phone? I was looking around and saw that you can install Android on an iPhone, but I wasn't sure if you could do it the other way around.
I have a Sony Xperia X10 if that makes any difference.
Thanks

iPhone is Mac, it is proprietary .. It would be illegal even if you could ..

it should be illegal

-Dan

iOS is crap, no developer will consider doing that.

no, this will never happen. it would be a large amount of anyones time to get it working, if it ever could with the amount of things youd have to patch.

why?
not to be pessimistic about mac, but why would you install it?
If you have hav an android phone, why would you make its characteristics similar to an iphone? I personally would not do it because Iphone is not java based and Android is which makes it more fun.

iphone is iphone , android is android , it is impossible you can have an android phone with iphone os or an iphone with android platform . If you want an iphone os , why don't you just buy an iphone instead of android phone , i wonder ?

Not entirely true. You can put android on the iPhone, look up idroid. Although, it's horribly programmed and barely functional. Regardless, it's possible with the right dev.

Impossible-no
Many people that have an iPhone do not like the iOS, so a dev went and made an android based app. Those that have an Android realize that Android>iOS and do not want to make an app to emulate the iPhone. As an earlier post said, if you want iOS, get an iDevice.

Not everybody realizes that Android>iOS and will stick with iOS. Another reason is that jailbreaking allows piracy off nearly every app/game on the App Store, yet rooting a Android based phone does not allow this.

if u want an iphone buy an iphone and let android be android ¬¬

Android+IOS=Phone Jesus
I kind of disagree. I like both IOS and Android, of course with preference to Android's development oppertunities. I would love to have my Android partitioned (or something of the sort) to run both IOS and Android. Similar to how I have Ubuntu and Win 7 on my laptop, with shared file systems.

There's a big difference between iOS and Android.Proprietary on one hand and an Open Source OS on the other hand!Trying to port Android in iPhone or the other way around with iOS would be too much time consuming and useless.Why would someone prefer to have iOS running on his phone (if the phone can support it), while he can very smoothly run Android and have exactly the same appibilities with an iPhone, or even more??

iOS on Android phone is impossible right now. You can get a lot of similary to iOS themes but noyhing else. And why people choose iOS ? 1.more apps 2.They dont need to root phone or install some custom rom's to run better, Iphone is a good, fast device from first unboxing (Android phones in prices like Iphone 4,4S are too very smooth without mods ;D ).

Why i came here ?
Because there is 1 gane in particular, Pubg and it runs good on ios. Because it is optimised good. So if i can get ios into my low end hardware. It would be great. I think

Android or iOS? Which do you prefer?

Im just curious how many of you out there would recommend an iPhone over an Android phone or an Android over an iPhone. After being an iOS user since 09 and recently switching to Android, I would actually say that Android is my favorite. Just because of all the customization options I have and all the things I can do that I could of never done with an iPhone (even when jailbroken). Now I'd like to hear your opinion.

IOS.
Android FTW!

agreed with android ftw..
i do enjoy reponsiveness of ios and polished look. it just looks "nice"
but android ftmfw..
my friend had an iphone 4 and we jailbroke it and he was showing all the cool things you can do with jailbroken phones..
i was like wait.... what? my phone could do this before it was even rooted.
makes me sad that ios has sooo many features just "missing" that phones should have. or be able to do. i guess thats why its not open sources... =\

Actually I like iOS 'cause it's so stable and really really easy , thus leaving it for all ages to use. But it's really limited and therefore you jailbreak.
Android on the other hand is a very good OS too! It's very very versatile and you can custom it like you want. The only thing with Android is that it's kind of messy.
So to conclude iOS is an OS that you'll find attractive in first look and some months to come. Android is an OS that grows on you and you'll love it in the long-run.

Has anyone seen iOS5? Apple obviously stole almost every new feature from the jailbreak community then they stole notifications from Android. They need to come up with their own ideas.

They do that quite often! Same happend with iOS 4 with the wallpaper and multi tasking

I suspect you're going to get android as the majority answer here.
I'm over the ios>android or android> ios. They're different beasts with great qualities all around. I think ios is a simpler os in that really anyone can use it. At the same time, android's strength comes in its flexibility and customization. This doesn't suite everyone because really the majority of people just want an easy button. They can find that in android, they just don't have the patience to look.

I wouldn't neccesarily say that Apple stole multitasking from another OS/Device because its different. I mean, come on, its fake. I wouldn't say Apple stole the homescreen wallpapers either. Its an image that doesn't move and it isn't live. Basically, it makes it look a little better. No biggy.

If you want to use your phone as a phone with a little web browsing and a little Angry Birds playin', get iOS because its simple. If you want to make your phone the way you want it and you like customization, freedom, and the ability to to almost anything with your phone, get Android. =)

I would really like Ios, it's not a bad OS. Multitask, runs pretty decent, huge app store, but there are a couple reasons why I'm not on ios.
Flash, I use flash on my phone all the time. Keeps me entertained.
Screen size, 3.5" is too small for me.
Carrier, I'm on Sprint dammit.

I use an iPhone for the reliability of it. And because currently it's the only phone I have with FFC. I also use an Android phone because of the enjoyment of it and apps. I feel my Inspire is smoother and nicer than my iPhone, but not as reliable. The screen isn't nearly as good as the iPhone 4's, either.
I also use a WP7 device and feel WP7 will overtake bother other formats eventually. It's that good.
But right now I don't leave the house without my iPhone. I feel secure in the knowledge I can get ahold of someone shuld the need arise. My Inspire almost got my family and I lost once due to a malfunctioning compass and non-functioning nav.

Almost exact sentiment, except in reverse. My trusty Eris does all my heavy lifting for work-related tasks while my iPhone is my gps/playtoy. Haven't gotten my hands on a windows phone yet but they certainly are sounding more and more attractive these days!

iOS is too newbie friendly for me, no offence to the people on here btw, you guys are awesome
I went Android because I don't follow Iphone/Blackberry trends and I love it now

Thats a nice OS but a WP7 phone at work somehow got a virus and it wouldbt let the phone do anything and all it did when you turned it in was show a big smiley face with the bird finger. XD

So yeah unlike allot here i won't go FU on iOS.
Here is my subjective list of pro & contra for both systems.
Mind you i have used both.
iOS​PLUS:
Stable
For it's money a well running piece of software built on that specific hardware
Fast
Simple to use
Design = top notch
Good service and reliable
Contra:
Hard to modify the feel of the OS
Forced to stay with all apple software (unless jailbroken) to downlaod upload music,etc..
Easy to jailbrake but still a challenge
Android​PLUS:
Easy to use
Smooth and stable
Easy to modify and root
Customizable to a great extend
Perfectly combined with all Google products
Good service and help from google with personal calls explaining things
Contra:
Default FM can hang once in a while
Without root no way to do much or change much
Easier battery drain (personal opinion)
No updates for all the phone due to builds and limitations ( this is because there are so many companies producing Androids but all with different specs)
WP7​Well really don't have much usage experience i did boot the emulator to check it out. Can't say it's ugly but doesn't look appealing either.
I believe that the OS probably is decent but it doesn't beg me to try it out
I think the WP7 is a good phone matching all other MS products. Like Xbox to phone connections and with Win8 it will be easy to look things up on your PC and share it with your phone if you godda go real quick. Win8 get's the same WP7 overlay.
All in all no real user experience so won't brake it down.
I believe it's a small correct list.
I can't say i hate either one of them but currently running android. Feels a Little slower then iOS but my biggest plus is all my Google Docs,Searches,G+,Mail,Pic are easy to acces with simple clicks from your phone.
Who the best is?
Think both are worth as much but if you like to mess around with your phone i would advise the android OS. Also you are more free to choose a phone to your liking then being forced a same look like the guy next to you in the train has.

I think he's just asking if it's possible, not opinions.

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
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

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

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.
http://miuiandroid.com/

If only, some androids have great hardware but the software side is sad.

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.

LOL 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 )

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.

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.

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.

pretty cool app...Gonna have to try this out. Hopefully my daughter will learn to use it quick or i'll be helping her for a while.

"where's the Android love"?
You do realize that you are ecstatic about an app that makes ios act like a competing operating system don't you? Lol
If ios is so good, why do you want it to act like windows?

I love when people act like one OS is the end all and be all of all OSs. I don't want Windows, I don't want iOS, but you can't deny that they both have very good things about each of them in their own rights. What I would like is for one OS( preferably Android obviously, as I do believe it's currently the best base frame work as far as customize-ability, range of hardware support, and memory management ) and for that base OS to take the best features of other OSs and incorporate them. This happens all the time, look at Ubuntu's "Unity" interface, remind you of OSx maybe? Or Androids "app drawer" kinda looks like the default iOS desktop doesn't it? I'm just saying, why not take this one additional feature and add it, why bash something that would make Android even more versatile.
