Hackers have managed to port the kernel of the iOS to a non-apple device, Nokia N900. The Cupertino company took care that its operating system for mobile devices could not be installed in other models of other brands, but Winocm, the famous hacker who managed to jailbreak iOS 6.1.3 and 6.1.4, has this time managed to port the XNU Kernel to another device.
This does not mean that other devices can already install iOS, but it is the first step for hackers to work on it in the future to be able to achieve it, as is done with the OSX system on personal computers, known as «Hackintosh«. The core of iOS is based on XNUMX (X is not Unix), which the company decided to use to support the foundations of OS X, the iOS operating system was also developed on this system.
At the moment the hacker has managed to install it on some devices and on the Nokia N900 due to the comforts offered by this model to introduce third-party data. At a visual level does not offer the Sprinboard of iOS, but if the bases where the system is hosted, the little letters that we saw when we jailbroken old versions of iOS, include most of kernel functions Apple's operating system, Darwin. Currently, the paradox of seeing iOS installed on another device other than Apple ventures an impossible mission, since this software is very closed and is developed exclusively for it. hardware of these devices, which is also supplied and created exclusively for them.
Although of course, with many hours of work and effort on the part of hackers, it will be possible to find a way to install the operating system or optimize it so that it begins to 'function'in some. What if it is clear that Apple will already be aware of this news and will toughen access measures to iOS software on other devices, since if we want to enjoy it, nothing better than doing it on a device for which it is designed, be it an iPhone, an iPad or an iPod Touch.
The peace of mind that remains for iOS users is that if the bitten apple is ever seen on another device, the errors and bugs that it will contain will make it almost unmanageable, but given the hard work and determination of hackers there is still some chance that something great will be achieved.
Would you like to see iOS running on a non-Apple device?
More information - iOS 6.1.3 and iOS 6.1.4 jailbreak will be released before 2014
If especially in the Samsung s4,3, etc, xperia z1. I'd go headfirst for them
I =
mother miaa hahaha not me !! also José because they put it on another device does not mean that all the performance and fluidity of an iPhone 5s I have an S4 hahaha
Well, I would sincerely love it
aesthetically and hardware there are phones better than the iphone 4 or 5 with android
To all this you put iOS and he has to be very handsome ajjajaja
Who has not done a hackintosh here ???? hahahahahaha
Sure, it's that easy, they put it on a better phone than the iphone 5 and that's it, it's already a better phone. Gentlemen, let's see when you learn once and for all that if the hardware and software are not designed and developed for each other, the performance will not be optimal. That's what happens with android and that's what will happen with iOS if you ever install it on a non-apple device!
I am not with you
I have a hackintosh that Apple would like the most to have on the web to sell at the price it cost me.
works FULL both in graphics CPU Ram SSD etc!
with Maverick and updates.
so it does not have to go wrong, everything is as they do it as they did with the hackintosh`s
there are many people who cannot spend more than € 3000 on a mac pro ...
I personally would be cool to see another terminal with iOS and working well ,,, it will be very fun to have other phones running on iOS hahaha!
I'm sorry I'm that twisted 😀
Macs use components, let's say "common" such as Intel processors and many others, iPhones use Ax processors that are obviously not the ones used by the competition, there is a big difference. It is nowhere near the same to run a mac OS on other similar hardware than to try to run iOS on another terminal (perhaps you could, but you would not get anywhere near the original performance or the one you get in a hackintosh)
There is a lot of loose hacker ... do not be surprised that they achieve it .. there are drivers for you as they propose jiijjijijiji
With how ugly a Samsung is, and how closed iOS ... I do not see the advantage anywhere. A golden iPhone with Android ... well yes.
Do you smoke the same weed that apple lawyers get?
Surely the hackers are from Samsung .. xD
your crest hurts !!!!!!
The hacker is winocm, responsible for the 6.1.3 / 4 jailbreak
I have read the article only once and I have seen at least 3 misspellings and 2 errors in the expressions used.
It is not a vain criticism, I know that you take care of the forms, that is why it has caught my attention.
And that there are people who start to make a count of the spelling mistakes sends the hell out!
you are very bored right?
"Android far surpasses IOS", is an argument of the fandroids, IOS ported to an Android his dream. Curious no?
Like the Android port for some apple devices that came out a long time ago and everyone went crazy to install it? XD make no mistake, Android has long surpassed iOS (of course on high-end devices).
ios in note 3 would be the perfect mobile.
