The jailbreaking procedure for Apple smartphones is no longer surprising. But installing Android on an iPhone is a very attractive opportunity. It involves fully utilizing the hardware. After all, all Apple fans know that the manufacturer, with its updates, reduces the performance of the phone. The goal is one – to make the user buy a new smartphone.
Apple Inc. responded to the news instantly. A complaint was filed in court against Corellium. By the way, this startup has long been known to internet users. The Corellium team of programmers has repeatedly criticized Apple’s strict policy for performance restrictions on old smartphones through forced system updates.
It is not certain that the lawsuit will be successful. Jailbreak does not break the hardware or disrupt the operation of the iPhone system. A simple utility, using the processor, RAM, and ROM resources, creates a “sandbox” – an analog of a virtual machine. And it simply runs the Android system on the smartphone.
Installing Android on iPhone
Any owner can configure an Apple phone for Android. A utility called Checkra1n is required. The installation method is available online on European and Chinese resources. Reddit users can find files and instructions by searching for the utility’s name.
Currently, installing Android on iPhone is available for the 7th generation smartphones (iPhone 7 and 7 Plus). But programmers assure that very soon the utility will help revive the 8th generation phones as well. The only drawback is the limitation of some smartphone functions when switching to Android. But these are minor issues, as the phone can still make calls, support wireless protocols, and handle games.
It is clear that die-hard Apple fans will not go anywhere. iOS users who are accustomed to their devices are unlikely to switch to the “green robot”. However, the secondary device market might see some revival. Perhaps Apple’s management will find the jailbreaking procedure beneficial. Because demand for older phone models will increase. And that means spare parts, batteries, and accessories for smartphones. Who would refuse an additional source of income?
