      @moem that is correct, that's the question I wanted to ask.

        @thousandtopics android apps are mostly written in java/kotlin, xml and platform specific code. So everything would need to be rewritten. I don't see the benefits of doing that.
        And if we don't have the source code. It would give you big headache i think, and don't know if possible easily

          As @lduboeuf said android very tied to Java.
          To run Java on UT is not recommended as it would take a lot of resources only for the JVM.
          Modifying an app using Kotlin to use our framework instead would be hasardous at best.

          So to summarize : too much work for a poor (to says the least) expected result.
          To summarize even more : No can't do.

            @applee I'm not stating that I'm planning to do it, I'm just curious if someone has been succesful, and what had obligated that or those indivials of doing it.

              @lduboeuf Just asking if someone has done it. Not asking if someone can and what it has to.be done to be acomplished. Just read again my question, and by your current answer you might say no, and I'm not interested in that response jaja. Chill a little bit guys.

                @thousandtopics said in Android inverse ingenier apps to Ubuntu Touch:

                Chill a little bit guys.

                People are being pretty chill, they're just trying to inform you of something that you seemed interested in. And I'm glad that they did so, because clearly my answer was way off. Shows you what I know! 😄

                Is currently using an Op5t
                Also owns an Op1 and a BQ E4.5. And an Xperia X. Please, someone... make it stop.

                  @moem if they are chill that's cool haha. Normally when I read those kind of answers people are kind of stressed like why this guy doesn't understand?!, and I'm like. Is just a what if question, nothing serious.

                        actually im hell bent on doing it

                        ....yeah i get it poor performance ect ect but just think of the possibilities

                        first im looking into calling java runtime from python then loading app.jar

                        bundling a portable java runtime implementation and any dependencies within the UT app ....now at first its just gonna be java and prob slow as hell

                        then i will make it work for android later but that will be way harder ....one step at a time itll be in the works for awhile cause im still stumped on running python within clickable

                        i figured out web apps simple enough but i need more programmable meat ...so to speak
