Android on iPhone 3G using Bootlace

First of all. I apologize for the audio and lack of narration. And second, the screen is busted in the bottom left hand corner, my fault, its an old phone and I no longer use it. But the video demonstrates Android Froyo 2.2.1 using iDroid 1.0.2 (fairly sure) ROM with OpeniBoot installed with Bootlace. It works, somewhat. All the features work, Wi-Fi, multi-touch, that kind of stuff. The Market isn't included with the ROM, and the camera doesn't work either. Overall its fun to toy around with, but can be extremely frustrating.

That's pointless it lags so much.

[dalto11]

@TheJackc95 Well of course it lags, its Android running on a device in which it wasn't designed to run on per se. The point at the moment isn't how smoothly it runs, its simply fact that they have it running on an iPhone. There's no GPU acceleration or drivers at the moment. It'll smooth out over time, especially when they get it running on the iPhone 4 and such, since OpeniBoot has already been successfully ported.
