Android (any version) on lumia 550 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, i got a lumia 550 and i am tired of it. Since my store is gone because for some reason it makes an unknown error in each download, i want to know if there's a way to install android on it or if a mod is under development.

Same here! Since WP-Internals has released an update, is there any advice you guys could give? Some ideas to try?

There are some threads here about installing android on other lumia models.
To find them easily, do a Google search for:
"Android for Lumia XDA"
OR
"Android Nougat for Lumia XDA"
The process for you should be similar but it probably won't be the easiest.

[Q] Coby Kyros MID7012

Is there any new development on this tablet. Been searchin google and all I come up with that is close is the MID 7015. I guess my question is can the same roms and rooting procedures work with the MID7012. TY in advance.
Kryos 7012 Rooting?
Yea, I'm wondering that too, since I see it on sale this week.
Got Root?
I was forced to get one of these cheaper devices for my wife. But I want to see what else I can do with it. I know its supposed to be possible to root, but have never attempted anything like this before. Can anyone help me?
I got mine rooted just not sure what to do with it now
I can not post outside links though
if you go to androidtablets.net and search for Coby Kyros Mid 7012 you should find a thread where I posted some messed up stuff.
Or just search for snuffy47 posts I have only posted maybes 4 times in that forum.
I would like some help on clean this unit up

Didn't you have to root it and add google framework? If so, what did you use for rooting?

Just grabbed one of these to run Pandora in the garage.
I was kind of hoping XDA would have some interesting stuff, but I guess not. No surprise really.
I haven't even charged it yet but I do have these two links:

Star A3 help please

Hi all,
I have a star a3 which I've had for about a week, I am having trouble getting market place to work and also getting rid of the chinese apps. I have read the threads and even posted in another thread but I have not got any help. I have rooted the phone but the qqmobile security is not allowing me full access to superuser and I cannot install apps. Does anyone maybe a back up of the original software but minus the chinese apps with market place ready to go. I'm on 2.3.5
Thanks in advance.
ki
I don't have a copy of the ROM, but i can help you out with a copy of google play and root explorer. Using root explorer you should be able to delete the security app along with all the other Chinese applications (I do have a list of whats safe to delete too)
I bought 12 of these phones, from 2 different suppliers and none of them had this qqsecurity which you are talking about so I am not sure exactly what it does or how to get rid of it. But I can point you to a 2.3.5 ROM for the star A3 that is also minus all the crapware you don't need if you want to go down that route of re-flashing the whole phone.
I would like to have this ROM. How can I find it?

Waiting for your answers... good news for me !
hey guys yes it is impossibe to run android on a windows machine at this time ( phones still down have the same cores as computers so its not like you can load a windows file on to a memory card and flash like you do on a pc . ( only because the companys found a loop hole on phones because legaly they have to allow it on pc ( basicly android uses shell (like comands ) and require a machine to read this ( android phones have a shell base comand ( windows are doss i believe soo yes impossible to do it on a lumia 520 ( becuase firstly its out dated and windows is unlikely so open the os on an old phone even if the law changes and secondly . youn would have to run a vry low level of android on it
In my opinion it can not be because maybe Microsoft is not really interested in this , because the current operating system is not yet completed the best

I guess it's not really possibly to install Android Lollipop on a Windows Phone that is designed just for the Windows Phone OS :\
It's kind of like you are trying to install Android Lollipop 5.1 on an iPhone 6 (or something)
Is this the website you get the information from? It looks like it is only for LG Magna

[Q] How to make an app that requires android 4.4 or more run on a lower version?

I have a custom rom with Android 4.2.2 on my Gionee Elife E6 and I've been trying to install an .apk file for 3 days now, only to get the "There was a problem parsing the package" error. It took me 2 days and another device with Android 4.4 to realize the application has an Android version restriction. I've been searching the web for 3 hours now and I can't seem to find any help in changing the app's requirements, and while browsing the apk's files I cannot seem to find any file to have a code line about android version restriction. Can I get some help please? I am so desperate to get this app working right now

Hey,
First of all, is there a nice dev who can move this question to the right forum?
Now to your question. There are some options to archive the goal. But the real problem could be, that the app really depends on a function which is just available on KitKat or higher. So even if you could install it. It most likely won't run.
And you'll just see FCs

I don't think the app uses any functions that 4.2.2 doesn't have, I am talking about Pokémon GO . Care to share with me those possibilities you are talking about?
