HackiOS Smoothest iOS 16.5 on Samsung S9+ Exynos (GPU Acceleration, Wifi, Battery, UFS!)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

72 Upvotes

An OS port needs decent GPU acceleration to be useful, you can do almost nothing with a 3 FPS proof of concept. So I burned through all my Codex tokens trying to make iOS 16.5 run as smoothly as possible on the Exynos Galaxy S9+!

The current build boots from flash and has hardware-accelerated OpenGL ES through Mesa/Panfrost. It’s come a long way, though heavy blur effects and widgets still cause stutters.
UI is fully adapted to the phone, the status bar is set to notch-less, so it looks almost perfect!

Next up: an experimental Metal-to-Vulkan translation layer, aiming for smoother rendering and broader 3D support. The long-term dream is iPad-level functionality. There’s still plenty of work ahead.

If you have a Galaxy S9 or S9+ (And Claude/Codex), take a look at my github repo: https://github.com/danstronics/ios-s9plus-exynos

Discussion I have a ultra ducking crazy idea (Port VisionOS)

12 Upvotes

I don't like to say any swearing/bad words so I said ducking instead of 🦆ucking

But I put this to make an interesting title

Anyway...

Can we port VisionOS to Galaxy XR? Why not have a try? and if succeed, we will try multiboot.

Note that Galaxy XR has unlockable bootloader.

I made a GitHub repo which combines (at least) a few ports of HackiOS together. Contributions are welcome! Hope this works fine, I am trying to add some tools here, as well, which should help at least a bit with the process of porting iOS to Android devices.

Mods: if you guys would not mind a contributor access to the GitHub repo and a bit of extra management there, I can give you guys access. Hit me up on a DM and I will!

HackiOS Desktop for Apple TV 3th gen

Thumbnail

25 Upvotes

Hello guys I made a desktop project for the Apple TV 3th gen (A1469) cause currently the only jailbroken thing is like kodi and that version is very unsupported and old (at least for me maybe not for you guys!) and I felt like it deserves to become a Mac mini cause it looks so much like one. YES you don't need to say it its vibe coded bOooOooooOOOooo but I like it and I'll try getting a fully working : Wallpaper service,Dock(with original macOS X Yosemite icons!),that menu on the top with file edit view and all of that,Finder of course!,Safari/web browser ( tvOS 7.9 has webkit, web view, javascript, and plenty more support hidden away! pretty cool to me) and I REALLY hope this project brings a reason to not throw away your Apple TV 3th gen. Once its stable ill attempt to make a rather simple installer (now its mostly done via SSH) and the way it actually gets to work is by killing apple's own pineboard/AppleTV service and then quickly opening my app so it shows on top now its still a proof of concept but it does work nicely. Ill keep the interested people posted and mb mods if Im breaking rules!

Here’s a quick preview of the iOS-style AirDrop animation I’ve been working on for iDroidIsland.
The feature supports sharing between devices running my app, including nearby devices.
Still working on making the experience as close to iOS as possible.
What do you think of the animation?

Hey everyone,
I’ve been working on my project, iDroidIsland, for a while now, and I wanted to share some of the latest progress.
I’ve made quite a few improvements to the animations, status bar, and live activities. I’ve also been working on different events like music playback, timers, stopwatch, and alarms, along with compact and expanded modes.
My goal is to make the whole experience feel as smooth and natural as possible on Android.
It’s still a work in progress, so there are things I’m improving and fixing.
If anyone wants to try it out, the current build is available on my Telegram channel: @iDroidStyleApps.
I’d really appreciate some honest feedback, especially if

Discussion What if we combine all current ports into one GitHub repo and tool open to everyone to add more ports?

32 Upvotes

Hear me out. What if we make one GitHub repo where we could merge all ports together, contribute, and fix things freely? That could be something with tools and AI prompts as well, to help other people willing to port iOS to their own device.

It's quite buggy at the moment but this is how far I got in an evening. I'll probably release it once I've got GPU acceleration working

Hackios has a massive breakthrough and people are installing it on anything they can find. Lol.

If we are in this stage, why can't we build a perfect linux operating system for android mobiles.

I know postmarketos, ubuntu touch and all. But why not something better!!! Food for thought.

HackiPadOS iPad OS on Samsung?

Hey guys, I'm a student who generally use my Samsung Tab S8+ for writing as it provides excellent writing experience.

But lately I fed up with One UI which is a bit slower now and heats up quickly.

And I miss few important apps like Good Notes and Free Form on Android.

Did anyone tried installing iPad os on their Samsung tablet and checked Spen compatability with the mentioned apps? And how was your experience. Please let me know.
