Arne Exton has updated his Android-x86-based AndEX project to the latest Android 9.0 Pie mobile operating system, which now lets users run Android 9 Pie on their personal computers.

AndEX Pie 9.0 Build 190326 is now available, based on the Android-x86 project, an open source initiative that let you run Android on your PC. It comes with comes pre-installed with numerous popular apps, among which we can mention the Aptoide app manager, Mozilla Firefox web browser, Clash of Clans game, and several useful utilities.

While the Google Play store or any of the GAPPS (Google Apps) aren’t available in this build of the AndEX project, the developer says that Aptoide is a good replacement for Google Play Store to install more apps. On the hardware side of things, AndEX Pie appears to work well with almost any newer laptop and some desktop computers.

"My new compiled Android-x86_64 system (Pie 9.0) can run and be installed on almost all newer laptops (and some Desktop computers). For example Acer (Aspire), HP, Samsung, Dell, Toshiba, Lenovo, Thinkpad, Fujitsu, Panasonic and Asus laptops. You can (of course) also run AndEX in VirtualBox and/or VMWare," said Arne Exton.

Run it live or install it on a disk drive 

The AndEX Pie system can be run in live mode directly from a USB stick or installed to a disk drive on your personal computer or on an external USB drive. It’s also possible to install AndEX Pie on a disk drive alongside another GNU/Linux operating system, such as Ubuntu Linux. Installation details are provided by the developer here.

It should be noted the fact that the Android 9 operating system might some computers start up AndEX Pie in compatibility mode with the VESA graphics drivers. However, it appears that the video and audio performance appears to be of the best quality. AndEX Pie 9.0 Build 190326 is available for purchase for $9 USD from developer’s website as ISO or ZIP files.
