For those of you who couldn’t get Android 2.2.1 to work on iPhone 3G or 2G using the steps we posted earlier, we now have a complete step by step video guide on how to install Android 2.2.1 with iOS in dual-boot configuration on iPhone 3G & 2G using Bootlace in Cydia. Installing Android using this method with Bootlace wont replace your existing iOS installation. You can keep running both OS’ side by side.

Install Android 2.2.1 Froyo On iPhone 3G / 2G Using Bootlace in Cydia [No Computer Required]

Probably the most easiest way to install Android on an iPhone 2G/3G is via iPhoDroid, which we did cover previously. But the problem with it is; you should have a computer to run the whole process of installing Android on your iPhone 2G/3G. But thanks to Bootlace 2.1, you can now install Android 2.2.1 Froyo on your jailbroken iPhone without needing to connect it to any PC or Mac!

iPhoDroid: Install Android on iPhone 2G and iPhone 3G the Easy Way !

Thanks to iPhoDroid, you can now install Android on your iPhone 2G and iPhone 3G faster and easier than ever before. We have already covered detailed guides on how to install Android on your iPhone 2G and 3G, but they were long and complicated. With iPhoDroid, you’ll be able to install Android on your iPhone with iBoot within minutes.


The installation instructions are pretty straight forward. Follow the instructions below to get Android and iPhone OS running on your device in a dual boot combination.
Step 1: You’ll need to have a jailbroken iPhone 2G or 3G on OS 3.1.2. If you are jailbroken on OS 3.1.3 with Spirit then you will need to downgrade back to OS 3.1.2. To make it more clear, you must be jailbroken using either redsn0w, PwnageTool or blackra1n on OS 3.1.2, not Spirit.
Step 2: Download iPhoDroid version 0.6 from here, MacFuse from here and install them on your Mac.
Step 3: Make sure you have connected your phone to a WiFi network and that you have OpenSSH installed on it. Instructions for installing OpenSSH on iPhone can be found here.

Step 4: Run iPhoDroid and simply follow the onscreen instructions, install iBoot when you are asked to, and within next few minutes, you’ll be running two of the best mobile OS (iPhone OS and Android) on your iPhone.
