It is a common question asked by many Apple users: iMessage for Android. Perhaps Apple will make it ever possible. With an open source project and what other supplies, however, it is still true.
The so-called PieMessage project on GitHub promises to allow your iMessages on reading your Android device. For this, you have to manually set up and configure things. Also you must have a Mac.
Make sure that your Mac is added to your iCloud account. For this you open the Messages application, double click Messages , Preferences , Accounts and make you a iMessage account has been added. Thus we will soon start chatting. It is also necessary, before we begin, that you have installed the Java SDK. This download you from the website. It is also necessary to install the Android SDK on OS X. That you download from Google’s website. Here, select the command line tools. Unzip it and open the Tools the Android . The SDK manager will start. Download Android SDK Build Tools 23.0.2 . Check Android N and Android 6 and turn instead Tick Android 5.1.1 (API 22) and down Android Support Repository ( Features ). Click Install X packages , accept the license agreement and click Install .
Another preparation that should be taken is that your Mac a static IP has address. Which you can set to System Preferences , Network to go. Choose your active compound with a green dot next to it and click Advanced . First, go to DNS and write here the IP addresses listed here. then go to TCP / IP . Remember here the value IPv4 address . Click Configure IPv4 Using DHCP and choose Manual . Fill IPv4 address again the IP address what you just saw. If it is good, change Subnet Mask and router do not, so let it be so. Go after a while DNS . You see that now addresses are no longer here. Click the plus sign and fill just remember DNS servers. Click OK and Apply .
It is now necessary to establish PieMessage on your Mac. For this you go to GitHub and click right Download ZIP . Unzip by clicking the ZIP file. It is now necessary to complete your static IP address. Browse this to the PieOSXClient / src , and open the file Constants.java with a text editor, but do not use the built-in OS X editor. For example, choose Sublime or Atom. Somewhere at the top you see the variable socket address defined. Replace the address 127.0.0.1 with your own static IP address network. Save the file and close it. Then go to the file Android-PieMessage / app / src / main / java / com / ericchee / bboyairwreck / piemessage / Constants.java and do the same thing here.
From the map PieMessage-Android copy the following folder and file to the folder Java Web Server and PieOSXClient gradle and gradlew .
on your Android device, then put your developer mode. Go to Settings About tablet and touch some time Build number . Then go to Developer options and turn the switch USB debugging . Connect your smartphone or tablet to your Mac.
Now open a terminal and enter the following commands. First make sure that the project folder from just being active in the terminal. If PieMessage example is in the Download, run cd Downloads / PieMessage master . Follow cp messages.applescript ~ , followed by Java Web Server CD & amp; & amp; ./gradlew run . Then press CMD + T to open a new Terminal tab and enter this command CD PieOSXClient & amp; & amp; ./gradlew run . In an additional tab, then run CD-PieMessage Android & amp; & amp; ANDROID_HOME = / Users / [username] / Downloads / android-sdk-macosx ./gradlew install debug
you’re doing here, but then you have what: iMessage Android
also
