Windows On an Android device

[CaptainSalty]

I would like to be able to run windows on an Android device if anyone knows how i can make this happen it would be sick if you'd let me know. i've been looking around the INTERNET and cant seem to find anything on it. any help would be appreciated. Ive seen it streamed from a PC using splashtop and other streaming apps and i use them myself but i want to be able to use my phone as a windows device without having to stream from my PC.

Unless you have a phone with an x86 Processor like the Asus ZenFone2, it's pretty much impossible to get Windows running smoothly. You can use QEMU which is an open source emulator but is going to be much slower than using virtualization on a x86 based device. I would just stick to remote desktop connections.

To add, the closest thing you can do is run Windows 10 Mobile (as this is ARM based version of Windows 10)... but getting it to have your phone work with it (remember you need the right drivers for the modem, wireless, touch screen, camera, audio, graphics chip, etc) is another story.

Yea I looked for a Windows Phone port for my S3 and even for such a popular phone that refuses to die thanks to the community out there (mostly from XDA), still no dice.
