What is DroidOS?
DroidOS is a suite of advanced system tools designed to give "superpowers" to the standard Android experience. It functions as a universal Samsung DeX replacement, a tiling window manager, and an unrestricted app launcher that works on any Android device. Whether you are using a Foldable, a Flip phone, AR Glasses, or a secondary monitor, DroidOS unlocks the full potential of your hardware.
? Core Features
🖥? Universal Desktop Mode (DeX Replacement) Unlike proprietary solutions locked to specific brands, DroidOS provides a desktop-class experience on any Android phone:
Window Management: Force apps into specific tiling layouts (Split-screen, Quadrants, Tri-split) on external displays. Input Control: Turn your phone screen into a fully functional trackpad and keyboard while viewing content on a larger screen. 🕶? AR Glasses & Virtual Screens Optimized for users of XREAL, Rokid, Viture, and other AR glasses: "Headless" Mode: Turn off your phone's physical screen to save battery and reduce heat while the system continues running on the glasses. Blind Navigation: The Trackpad module allows you to control the AR interface without looking at your phone. 📱 Foldable & Cover Screen Enhancements Unleash the full power of your Galaxy Z Flip, Fold, or other foldable devices: Unrestricted Launching: Launch any app on the cover screen, bypassing system "Good Lock" allowlists. Orientation Control: Force landscape or portrait orientations on screens that don't natively support them. 🛠? How It Works DroidOS utilizes Shizuku to access elevated system APIs without requiring root access. This allows it to: Inject raw input events (Mouse/Keyboard) directly into the system input stream. Manage window sizes, positions, and display power states via hidden Android APIs (Reflection). Launch activities on specific display IDs (Cover screens, Virtual displays).
