pavan061994 Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 As title clears all..... Is there any possibility port Android apps to symbian...in qt or any other forms... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lamerfall Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 In general this involves rewriting parts of code and the procent of this depends on every game/application (how it is connected to the underlying APIs). In other words creating a similar application, that imitates the original is needed for closed source aps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Die2mrw007 Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Nope, you cant port android apps to symbian but can imitate it. Android is based on linux kernel and the coding for it differs a lot with that of symbian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
