Heh, I also just got an e71 and was wondering the same thing. I know you can put android on the n810 though that is somewhat different but hopefully it will be possible at some point...I love this phone. I'm pretty sure it meets the hardware requirements @ arm11 processor 369mhz

Me too, would love to slap a bit of Android love on to my E71.

Progress getting Android on the Kaiser has gone very far, I think v1.0 (same version as on the G1) is already added:

Progress on the Shadow/Juno has just started:

For any of you asking about installing android on specific phones you should just google it though, you will likely find more than asking here, because if it has been done it should be on the web.

Running android on other phones will depend on a community supporting it, right now the only way to run it is through a linux bootloader with extensive modifications on drivers to get it to work. I know a couple of Winmo htc phones like the cruise/Polaris, Vogue, kaiser, wizard, tilt, etc, and the nokia n810/n800 tablet was able to run Android (v0.8, 0.9 not 1.0) using a linux boot loader.

Installation of any OS on a phone isn't anything like on a pc because of the hugely varying hardware. Don't expect Android to be easily installed on a phone like you install an OS on a computer. Edit: Though it will likely be offered in many phones in the future.

Back on topic: I haven't heard anything on Android on the E71, again if there is, it will probably be in forums that discuss the E71.

Someone, somewhere out there will figure out a way (I'm pretty sure of it).

If you are going to make a extensive FAQ in the future, probably including an answer to the "Can I install Android on ***?" is a good idea. I forsee people asking this question a lot.

ẁould I be right in saying that all of the ports we have seen so far are not actually porting the Android OS but only running the emulator on top of some kind of Linux. I know that the OHA are planniing to relase the full code for the OS when the phone lauches but what we have now is not it.

Please feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

Hopefully this happens soon!
Would be nice to have the phone we want with the OS we choose.
