Jelly Bean 4 3
Jelly Bean 4 3
An even sweeter Jelly Bean
Googles open source Android operating system has become one of the big hits in mobile technology. Many different types of handsets are appearing based on it, and its headed for non-phone platforms too. Android application development has also matured. Over the last few months we have witnessed a tremendous growth of Android OS to the extent that it now commands over 43% market share in the mobile OS space.
While many of us are attached to our gadgets, we still rely heavily on our computers. What if you could just use the Android operating system on your computer? Fortunately, it is possible to do this. You can do this by creating a Live CD or VirtualBox.
The original plan of the Android-x86 project was to create patches for x86 support for the open source community. They later discovered that they can do more than just create patches for x86 support; they can allow Android to run on personal computers. Therefore, one of the primary goals of the Android-x86 project is to allow Android to run on your PC.
You can do this by booting from a Live CD or by using VirtualBox. In case of a Live CD, the Android OS will run from the disk independent of Windows. If you want to run Android on your PC while your Windows OS is running in the background, wed advice you to install it on VirtualBox. We have detailed both the processes below.
We have previously seen how to run Android apps on your PC with Bluestacks App Player, but if you want to work with the complete Android OS, this is a better approach.
