The tools provided in this repository allow you to install custom Android apps on your camera. Additional effort has been made to analyze the firmware update process. Using the obtained knowledge, we can execute custom code on almost all Sony Cybershot and Alpha cameras released between 2007 and 2016. ## Installing Android apps ## -The list of cameras featuring the Android subsystem can be found [here](https://github.com/ma1co/OpenMemories-Framework/blob/master/docs/Cameras.md). -The list of available apps can be found at [sony-pmca.appspot.com](https://sony-pmca.appspot.com/).
