Feeling like having some cupcake or donut for coffee today? How about some eclairs? You got it right, we are talking about different versions of Android out there in the wild and not any of those mouth-watering desserts. However, if we have already set you salivating, let us pacify by telling you that it’s now possible to get these desserts, sorry these android UIs on our 5800s. Nah, we are not talking about any fancy emulators here, just a well done theme is what we need, and looks like Mandeep has got the right recipe for android desserts on your 5800s!
Android by Mandeep is an excellent imitation of the Android UI and though is nowhere near the android emulator, we reviewed earlier, it has got loads of eye-candy and appeal. Read on for a brief review of this theme.
Screenshots-
Well that must have given you an idea on what to expect from the theme. The overall theme design is nothing fancy. Mandeep has just concentrated on giving your 5800s the look and feel of android UI and we must confess he has done a great job at it. The icons and the pull up menu have been done very well and a non android user may actually fall for it. But a regular android user will not fall for the trick.
What we like?
- A very good imitation of the android UI
- Light on memory, loads super fast
What we don’t like?
- Icons have that pixelated look (may be thats how the icons are for andriod UI!)
Verdict
Like we said before, the theme is nowhere near the android emulator by MMMOOO, which has its own share of glitches, but we are definitely impressed by the imitation job of Mandeep. The fact that it’s just a theme is a deal breaker, for it doesn’t drain the battery as the flash based emulator of MMMOOO does, and just has the right mix to fool some of your gullible friends into believing you actually run android on your 5800s! In all its a great theme for 5800ers.
Android by Mandeep can be downloaded for free from Mandeep’s portal.
Thanks for sharing your work, Mandeep and keep up with the good work.

Why should we always try to imitate other’s feel like iphone, android or even other nokia e.g Maemo N900.
It look like we don’t confidence with ours. Iphone looks is good but 5800XM is another fantastic ones.
5800 theme is faraway better than android.
