Root bootdroid? Has anybody tried it?

bootdroid - Dual Boot Android OS & iOS 5 on Android Devices - Google Project Hosting

Has anybody tested this out? Is it a possible to have this ported to work with the Triumph?

I'm not really interested in running iOS5, but would rather be able to dual boot to different Android MODs (like stock/CM7, or whatever.)

Either way, I think it would be fun to play with.

It would be cool to have so I could make my friends with iPhones jealous that I'm only paying $35 a month for iOS 5 :D
You would probably have to port everything and fix a bunch of things, but I think it would be worth it.
 
Our device is the same as the Nexus S in terms of screen size/resolution and processor. It says on that page that it will work well on the Nexus S because of those specs, so we should be good.
 
How are they getting it to boot with iOS 5? It's closed source which means someone would have to reverse engineer it and build it from scratch for it to work...

no necessarily.... if you know what makes ios run, then you can build a program around it that will make it run :D

Doesn't work on the MT and may never work. They have been trying to get it too work on the MT for months and months. Plus this is something totally different.

in a way yes, but also no.... your phone is still running it, just with the help from the program (not exactly sure if thats even how this works at all :p )
