So there are plenty of ways to emulate Android on other platforms like PC for example. And there are plenty of emulators for the Android platform from anything from DOS emulator to ps2. But I am looking for a way to run android as a virtual machine within Android. So many bootloaders are locked now and it is becoming harder to root devices. It would be cool to have root in the virtual machine but not the hosting android. It would be like psudo-root (sudo lol). Anyone have any feedback? And I apologise in advance. I am a noob. Please excuse any offence. Thanks

Anybody know of a utility, like Wine for Linux, that will allow an Android device to run apps written for WM?
Now is 2years left for first post for this user. Is now wine for android?
Well...
Calm down, man. Just try to wait another couple of years
WP7 apps are written in C# using Silverlight. If you search the internet for Silverlight for Android you can find a few articles which says Microsoft is about to port it to Android, but you can't find anything yet.
Hi,
since january 2011 there is an windos (win95) emulator by Chris Burchett available in the market.
Cheers
ummmm wine won't work on android devices since our cpus aren't x86
Wine Is Not an Emulator
WINE would be cool. I downloaded the Amiga Emulator for Android. That is slick having the Amiga OS run on a phone.

Windows RT Apps on Android
There is a solution for what you ask! Go to Google Code, search for win8-on-android and follow the directions!
This will let you run open source Windows RT 8 apps for ARM. Not exactly what you wanted but close enough.
Hello,
Is there a way to run Android applications on an iOS?
I'm asking because I keep hearing about how Android is java-based so I though it might be possible that someone ported a java-based platform that can execute it on the iPhone.
It would be handy to be able to develop applications for Android and then just have them execute on an iOS platform if the users so wished.
Hi all,
I have a few questions to ask the community and I hope I'm doing it in the right part of the forum.
I was wondering if it would be all together possible to emulate Android on Android? Like Virtualbox or VMware for x86/x64 OS'es, the use for it would be great. Not only could you then sandbox app-installs, but one could run many different versions of Android, switch between older and newer versions without any risk to the actual device and ROM's could be generalized for use on it.
I feel like this should be possible, since there are other kinds of emulators on Android, BOCHS even got an x86 emulator working on Android a while back, and Android itself can easily be virtualized, as proven by the many Android emulators that are out there.
So my final questions are something like:
1- Is this even possible?
2- If the answer to 1 is yes, is there anything out there that can do this yet?
3- And if the answer to 2 is no, why isn't there? It seems so useful to me... ;p
Anyway, if in any way you feel this is a stupid question, feel free to point this out to me. ;p

I am looking for REAL emulator (NOT simulator) that can run iOS 3 or Windows Mobile 2003 apps on Windows.
Yes, I already did digging in google, finding a lot lists of "THE BEST TOP EMULATORS", but they are just fake articles with wrong information just to get visitors and earnings on their ads.
Years ago, I had Windows Mobile 2003 SE device from HTC.
I bought a game for it and played it a lot.
After years, I wanted to play it again, but it was only released for Windows Mobile (pre Windows Phone 7) and iOS 3+ devices.
Since I changed phone long time ago and I am not interested in having iPhone, I would like to play this game on Windows by using emulator.
The game title is Orions The Legend Of Wizards (or Orions 2 The Deckmasters).
I enjoyed it a lot, and I did not find any TCG or CCG similar in gameplay to it (I am already familiar with Magic The Gathering and others, but they are completely different in mechanics).
Windows Mobile.
Yes, I know there is Microsoft Device Emulator 3.
I downloaded it from official website with official OS images, but I have x64 bit operating system and I am getting the same error like other people on internet: "there are not seven pairs of xpvcom in system".
Yes, I downloaded x64 version of emulator and tried reinstall XPVCom solution which does not work like for other people too.
Yes, I read about using Virtual PC solution, so installing VPC, installing 32-bit OS in it, to use emulator in emulator - like others said, this is ridiculous and I am not going to do that.
Any other solutions?
iOS 3+.
Yes, there is a lot software, but they are not emulators like it is claimed, they are just similators.
I am looking for real emulator that is able to run iOS app.
Any solutions?
I know this forum is full of real geeks who understand technical topics very well.
Thanks for any help.
I need an Android emulator to run this old game called 'Lair Defense: Dungeon'. I'm not into android gaming but just played this one a lot. I was using a Samsung Galaxy Gio with Android 2.3 Gingerbread so it's really old and the game It's not been updated for years so It just doesn't run on new android phones and even the android emulators that I tried can't run it because they are based on newer android versions. Anyone can tell me an emulator capable of running the game? The game link on the play store:
Lair Defense: Dungeon - Apps on Google Play
Amazing strategic/arcade tower defense!

You could install android studio.
The emulator in it can use any android image even android 2.3
Run apps on the Android Emulator | Android Studio | Android Developers
The Android Emulator simulates Android devices on your computer so that you can test your app on a variety of devices and Android API levels without needing to have each physical device.

Thanks for the suggestion. I really need another option because that's the only one I found and I've tried really hard to run Android Studio but when I try to run a device it always crashes. Tried in Windows and Linux, lost some good hours on reading and configurations but the result is always the same: "The emulator process for... was killed". It's insane how hard is even just run that thing.
Does your pc have enough RAM? Reduce RAM allocation

Yes, 16GB . Was trying with the default:1280MB. Just tried using 1024MB same results.

The app in question is built to run on ARM devices only, hence it won't run on any X86 based Android emulator unless the Android image used by emulator contains the ARM-translator ( read: Intel Houdini ) and has Native Bridge enabled.

Thanks for the info. I'll check it but I'm not a dev. so I'm really at the limits of my capabilities here. It's sad but I guess it's a lost cause. Anyway, there are a lot of people who would like to play it again. If someone wants to buy and update the game or do something. Thanks
So I solved the "The emulator process for... was killed" problem. Tried a lot more of android 2.3 images and changing more configurations. It starts now, but I can't see the android starting. The operating system doesn't start or show up at all. What could be the problem now?
Okay, I understand now how this works. I only can run x86 images. Those work well when I start but the ARM images don't start. Guess it's the normal thing cause I'm using a computer CPU and ARM stuff is mobile stuff. Now, how can I know if the x86 android images contain the ARM-translator ( read: Intel Houdini ) and has Native Bridge enabled?

ARM emulators are made to emulate ARM CPUs on x86/64 computers. If they don't work it's not because your PC is not ARM, but for other reasons.
Anyway, Android Studio does not allow me to download old emulators for Android 2.3!
How is it possible that you can?
Which Android Studio version are you using?
Can you still download them?

There is this HowTo video for running Android 1.6 inside VirtualBox -- maybe that's what you need:
