Hmmm I wonder if the android app compatibility that sailfish has, could that part be brought to meego harmattan?
It seems that part is to do with Dalvik, so for legal reasons no it couldnt. Its not a free thing so Nokia would have to pay for Dalvik to run on the N9.
Saying that, if Jolla are partners with Dalvik AND the N9 gets a semi-official sailfish OS port from Jolla, then we could have the android app compatability
@godofwar424 Jolla is partners with Myriad. so that part is done. But I don't see them releasing a semi-official sailfish for the N9.
And for this community to bring dalvik to Meego Harmattan.... It would be stealing right?
also side question, anyone know would be the general hardware requirements of sailfish? if it was ported to the N9, would it be able to be run smoothly?
Also don't forget that showing the UI of some OS on some arbitrary device is an entirely different thing from supporting all the hardware (e.g. telephony) of that device. There's binary-only drivers involved which (in most cases) are diffcult if not impossible to work around.
So don't hold your hopes up too high for fully supported 3rd party devices (officially nor inofficially).
