How to Run Andriod on your PC

-
This article is about how to run Android  on your PC? Y In this tutorial i'll be showing you a step by step approach to installing Android-x86 on your PC using the VirtualBox technique. 

To install Android on your PC, you must first download and install VirtualBox on your PC. Then download the Android-x86 ISO file which can be found at Google Code. Be sure to download the latest version. From Android 4.2 and above.

After downloading the installer file and the Android ISO file, the next step is to create the Android Virtual Machine on your PC. Open the VirtualBox software and create a new virtual machine by clicking on new button. Configure your virtual machine as follows;

System Requirement
Operating System: Linux - Linux 2.6
Memory Size: 512 MB
Hard Drive Size: 3 GB or more

The next thing to do is to launch your new virtual machine and select the Android-x86 ISO file you downloaded. The installer will boot up inside your virtual machine.

Select the Installation option and press Enter to continue.

To install Andriod on your PC you need to create a partition for the Android system. To do this, select the Create/Modify partitions option and press Enter. Select New option and press Enter to create a new partition in the free space.

Choose the Primary option and press Enter, then press Enter again to enable the partition you created occupy the entire virtual disk you created.

Next, select the Bootable option and press Enter to enable  boot partition, then select the Write option and press Enter to write your changes to the virtual disk. You’ll have to type yes and press Enter to confirm writing the changes.

Activate the Quit option and you’ll go back to the Choose Partition screen.

This time, you’ll see the partition you created at the top of the screen. Select the partition and press Enter to install Android to it.

Select the ext3 file system, and then select Yes to format the partition.

Choose Yes to install the GRUB bootloader, and then select Yes to install the /system directory as read-write.

Once installation is complete, you can remove the ISO file and reboot your virtual machine.

Just like an Android smartphone or tablet, you’ll be taken through a setup process and required to optionally provide Google account details. Skip the Wi-Fi setup screen — Android will use your virtual machine’s standard Internet connection.

Once boot is complete, you’ll boot into a live Android environment, complete with Google apps like Gmail, Maps, and the Play Store for installing other apps.

Android is primarily designed for touch input, but you can also use your PC mouse and keyboard for operation.

This method isn't the easiest way to run Android apps on your PC, BlueStacks is faster. However, you can only use BlueStacks if all you want to do is play Temple Run 2 or another Android game on your Windows PC, While Android-x86 provides access to full Android interface in a virtual machine. Try this on your PC and enjoy Android on PC.
