Android 2.1 heading for quartet of HTC handsets

on 02/21/2010 19:16 PDT

Slm4996 has come up with a way to get Android 2.1 running unofficially on the HTC Kaiser (also known as the AT&T Tilt), Vogue, Niki and Polaris instead of Windows Mobile. Everything works as advertised, save for the camera and Bluetooth connectivity. Good thing Slm4996 has thrown in a bug tracker that helps one troubleshoot any undiscovered issues. Those who are curious to give it a go but do not want to flash the hacked ROM to the handset can run it alongside Windows Mobile using HaRET.

Android Android is mobile operating system from Google. The software was originally built by a company called Android Inc, that was purchased by Google in 2005. From its modest debuts, Android has become a powerhouse that powers not only smartphones and tablet, but a host of other less high-profile devices and gadgets. Although Android is not a community-driven project, Google does release the source code as open-source under the Apache license.
