Can you help me complete a list of the open-source operating systems that can be installed on smartphones in replacement of Android and their respective supported device list?
So far, I found :
- SailFishOS (based on MeeGo Linux+Mer) (SailFishOS supported device list, this and that)
- Ubuntu Touch (based on Ubuntu Linux) (Ubuntu Touch devices)
- PostmarketOS (based on Alpine Linux) (PostmarketOS device list)
- Manjaro-ARM (based on Arch Linux) (Manjaro-ARM supported device list)
- Mobian (based on Debian Linux) (Mobian supported device list)
- LineageOS (based on Android-GoogleApps) (LineageOS supported device list)
- LineageOS for microG (based on Android-GoogleApps+microG) (LineageOS devices)
- /e/OS (based on LineageOS for microG-Google) (/e/OS device list)
Android Apps support :
- SailFishOS can run Android apps with via the proprietary Dalvik Turbo VM.
- Anbox can be used to run Android apps in a LXC container on Linux distrubutions for which
Anboxhas been packaged for. - Waydroid can also be used to run Android apps in a LXC container on Linux distrubutions for which
Waydroidhas been packaged for. - LineageOS : you have to install the F-Droid app store manually than you will be able to install the Aurora Store (A Google Playstore Client) from the F-Droid app store.
- LineageOS for microG provides the F-Droid app store with which you can install the Aurora Store (A Google Playstore Client) from the F-Droid app store.
- /e/OS provides the F-Droid app store and /e/Installer (official /e/OS App store), you can also install the Aurora Store (A Google Playstore Client) from the F-Droid app store.
N.B.: For SailFishOS devices, you have to buy the SailFish X license which is about $50 otherwise you won't get the support, the updates nor the Android App support.
Just found the Tuxphones site :)
