HackiOS boots unmodified iOS 16.5 user space on an Android phone
What happened
On October 22, the Hacker News front page covered OOSEX GANG's HackiOS project, which runs an unmodified iOS 16.5 user space on an Android phone. The device in the report is a POCO X5 Pro 5G. The project boots a custom UEFI and EFI loader via fastboot boot, then starts the iOS firmware. The whole system stays in memory, and a reboot returns the device to Android. The report covers only this device's boot method and running state, with no results for other models.
