Although it seems like a bit of a downgrade, is anybody working on a dual-boot Android configuration for Jolla like we had Nitdroid for N9? Considering Sailfish runs Android apps quite smoothly it shoudnt be impossible to port Android for Jolla devices. Atleast for the hacks sake or proof of concept it would be interesting. But don't ask me how to do it..

Out of interest, why on earth we need android when Jolla phone has Alien Dalvik?

salifish app developers should concentrate on native sailfish apps that are still missing

I'd do it, if it would make GTA Vice City playable! Although I doubt it, since even real Android phones have problems with Rockstar's buggy games...

Speaking of game compatibility by the way, I've been trying to stay away from Radeon GPU's... took a while before I realized that "Adreno" is actually an anagram of something

Actually a triple or quadrupal boot scenario would be ideal: Sailfish OS, Android, Ubuntu Phone OS and Firefox OS. Maybe even Tizen? Naa, that's Samsung, who wants that?

Sailfish is great, but multibooting would be pure fun, I'm probably not the only one that finds it hard to be devoted to just one platform.

Google is making Android very restricted.

We need to concentrate our efforts of FOSS based developments.
