Ever wanted to transform your iPhone or iPod touch to Android? Well you're in luck. A jailbreak app called iAndroid transforms your iPhone, somewhat, into an Android device. Best of all, its available for download free from the modmyi repository in Cydia.
However, bear in mind that for you to use iAndroid, it is mandatory that you have a jailbroken device. No need to worry, our detailed step by step guides will walk you through all the steps necessary to jailbreak iOS 4.3.3 untethered using sn0wbreeze 2.7 (windows),pwnagetool 4.3.3 (mac) and redsn0w 0.9.6rc15(mac/windows). If you’re on iOS 4.3.2, here’s how you can untether 4.3.2 jailbreak using sn0wbreeze 2.6(windows), pwnagetool 4.3.2 (mac) and redsnow 0.9.6rc14 (mac/windows).
Basically, iAndroid is an application that is above 7 MB in size. You'll notice a new icon on your home screen once you've downloaded it from Cydia. Tap on it and iAndroid starts up like this:
Don't forget that iAndroid is an app, and icons of Facebook and Twitter than you see on the main screen will just launch the mobile version of these networks in the browser that comes inside iAndroid. You can scroll sideways but there are only two other screens on which nothing else can be added.
For typing, you just get the regular iOS keyboard, don't expect an Android styled keyboard to pop up when you tap on the Google search bar on the screen. However, iPhone users have access to a whole new dial pad.
Even though this is one of the finest ways to transform iPhone to Android that i have seen up till now, for me iAndroid does not hold that much importance. It is, at the end of the day, an app in itself. However, iAndroid is highly recommended if you consider Android layout best for your iOS device.
