Is it like a Rom? Or is it something completely different than Android? Is it universal or does it have to be specifically made for each device? Is it lighter than Android to provide better battery life and performance? Or is it comparable to Android? Could I install it on my HTC One m9 right now, do I flash it like a custom rom? Or is it harder than just flashing it in Twrp?

I think so

Well, that'd be good news. But is it device specific too, like, I guess all Roms?
Its core is pure Linux.
It's not based on Java, so you should get way better performance than Android, should you have the ability to install it.

How can it run android apps but other linux (arch, debian) cant?
A rip off of the Seagate logo

It has built-in android virtual machine, called Alien-Dalvic.

which only works for offical phones from jolla.
You can install Sailfish on for example a Nexus 5, but you not get the ability to run Android Apps on it.

Really? Didn't knew.
Well, I'm not using any Android apps except navigator.
>wanted to develop app for sailfish
>when installing the sdk I just get cryptic error messages and it fails
Something that will never pick up because only Jolla phones can install it and run it flawlessly.

That's very bad then. Jolla's Phone and Tablet are shit. But Sailfish seems very interesting.

I have the jolla phone and it's fine.

How's your 1gb ram?
>>51230878
Not him, but 1gb is enough for a Linux machine.
>>51230878
Native apps don't take that much ram.
Also wtf are you doing it with your phone that requires more ram, compiling gcc on ramdisk?

How does that phone handle Android apps?
