sfdroid - Android-in-a-Window

Status: Alpha, yet stable for basic daily needs

For installation instructions refer to specific device's wiki page. Currently supported: Nexus 4 and Nexus 5.

Demo video of early unstable release: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--OtwvH4ARU

Things not yet working inside Android-in-a-Window:

  • NFC
  • bluetooth
  • GPS
  • sensors (accelerometer works!)
  • USB (for apps/services that use it)
  • GSM calls/SMSs (mobile data works!)

Known issues

Written out here instead of bugzilla for now:

  • after updates input (when android dexopts) does sometimes refuse to work (solution: restart renderer when android is up)
  • if the camera is active in android sfos will not be able to take over (close it first in android)
  • vibration motor stops working in both, after an unknown amount of time
  • running a browser in Sailfish and Android, at the same time and switching between them as they both run in the background crashes lipstick I think
  • it's a bit difficult to access the notification bar, or get out of immersive mode (clicking on notification bar does the trick)
  • updating Sailfish OS via OTA breaks sfdroid
  • sfdroid seems to get unresponsive after going to sleep for an excessive amount of time (over night) (not reproducible in 2.0.0.10 anymore though)
