If Android takes 15 GB, explain how it runs on my 4 GB phone.

shame you dont know how android works.
LG G2 ran lollipopThere even was a dualbooting ROM for the LG G2 D802 wich had... 16gb storage, i LOVE how people talk without having a single clue of what they're talking about x).
No one here has said that the Switch would need to run Oreo, though. There's nothing wrong with running an old version, as long as it's higher than Kit-KatLG G2 ran lollipop
i love how you dont know crap. if you read what i wrote i said that newer versions of android use a lot more space than older versions
the lg g2 ran lollipop, a 5 year old OS
learn to read and comprehend
kitkat cannot run on the tegra x1. How can you run kitkat on a tegra processor? miracle?No one here has said that the Switch would need to run Oreo, though. There's nothing wrong with running an old version, as long as it's higher than Kit-Kat
Lollipop introduced support for 64 bit processors. Aka higher than KitKat. Good lord man stop while you're aheadkitkat cannot run on the tegra x1. How can you run kitkat on a tegra processor? miracle?
It has to be Marshmallow and up
lets see you port kitkat to boot on the tegra lolLollipop introduced support for 64 bit processors. Aka higher than KitKat. Good lord man stop while you're ahead
>4.4.2 =/= >=4.4.2lets see you port kitkat to boot on the tegra lol
good luck with that
Yeah, that's another thing; custom ROMs can drastically cut down on the install sizeI just sit here, watching people fight oversizes of their Android OSes... While in reality the are bloated because of OEM crap and a ASOP is pretty small. Hell Oreo for OnePlus 5, Lineage 15.1 is just 650mb zipped, around 2gb installed. So... yeah... pretty small.
Indeed! You don't need all fancy crap! Samsungs are bloaty. LG is not that bad... Don't get me started on Lenovo.Yeah, that's another thing; custom ROMs can drastically cut down on the install size
What would the whole of android take? For the most part it is the drivers you want and those, while maybe not being trivial to sort, are well within the realm of possibility ( https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/quake-iii-bounty-we-have-a-winner/ https://learn.adafruit.com/hacking-the-kinect ...).What would someone do once they have Android running on a Switch anyway? Whatever those apps are, surely its easier to port those same apps to the Switch OS than hoping for the whole of Android to be ported over.
While the latter is compelling and I know for a fact that there's interest, the reason people are interested in the reverse is so that you could dual boot and have your Switch run as is, but also as effectively a portable version of the Shield TV as well if you reboot it and boot into that OSYou can get custom stock Android roms for the Nvidia Shield TV, which shares the same Tegra chip as the Switch. I'd imagine this is doable, but I can't understand why someone would go through the effort of making it happen.
Seems to me like the kind of thing people hope to be able to do, just for the sake of it. I'd bet if someone made it happen, people would soon reflash the Switch OS back again.
I think a more interesting challenge would be if people can get the Switch OS and its games to run on a Nvidia Shield TV device. You could basically turn it into a consolized version of the Switch that could be used purely as a home console.
this is very useless. dual booting on 32GB storage? android alone needs 15gb for OS, data and cache
stock android oreo takes less than 7gb storagethis is very useless. dual booting on 32GB storage? android alone needs 15gb for OS, data and cache
