Description

This application implements a mostly-complete X11 server, running natively in Android. It allows X Window System applications to be run remotely and displayed on an Android device with internet access.

Note that this application does not come with a window manager. However, it is possible to run a window manager remotely, which is fiddly but seems to work.

This is still a beta release, so feel free to report any bugs you find, or, better yet, fix them yourself. Yes, it's open source, hosted at http://code.google.com/p/android-xserver/

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

User's Reivew

5 ★If you don't like having to configure VNC to run Linux from Termux on your phone, because you are a diehard Linux purist or an IT dunce, this is as easy as starting it and typing "export DISPLAY=:0" rather than trying to deal with connecting to a VNC for your mobile desktop Linux needs. The UI of the preliminary configuring of the server looks a little rough, but since your trying to set up another device's display, it could matter less what the blocky texr beforehand looks like.
2 ★I don't like it. It stays on this blank screen. At least it works.
5 ★Выполняет свои функции, отлично!
5 ★Okay. for who's don't know how to use this, Execute `export DISPLAY=localhost:0` and launch some X program. Please notice that some modern program may not work on this X server.
1 ★I can't use a app
1 ★Useless, its just a gray screen with nothing.
5 ★Very cool x can be moved as well I've spent HOURs moving the x so fun AND ADDICTE xdnhsHjpzutgfgrf I'm ok
5 ★Cool
1 ★Doesn't work in 2020.
3 ★Start up interface is a bit clunky and the server itself seems to be limited to simple, or ancient apps. For example, xterm, xclock work well, brave just crashes. Great proof of concept though.
