First Verizon Phones Running Android - People Are Successfully Hacking Away

Posted on 28 September 2008

Yesterday I posted a video of a Verizon phone running Android. Turns out, I got excited for good reason, because the video is legit - it’s a hack job, but it’s being done succesfully. Yesterday I wrote the owner of the Video to find out what the deal was, and I just got the reply (and I apparently I was so excited I didn’t even spell Android right!):

There you have it. If you want Android on a Verizon phone, and you’re too impatient to wait for the first official release, you might want to head over to the XDA Developer forums and contact DZO. ;-). It can be done.

Gotta love good hackers.
