Developers have tried to port Siri to all the other devices from quite a long time. Many succeeded in doing that partly, some managed to get the Siri UI on various devices and two apple developers actually managed to port Siri on iPhone4 and iPod Touch but never intended to release it because of its server complications. Siri’s protocol was cracked and hopes of running a Siri Proxy to process all the Siri requests on different devices seemed real.
All these efforts by various developers has finally paid off and now every jailbroken device could install Siri’s twin sister ‘H1Siri‘ via Cydia. The App claims to work exactly like Siri and all the requests are processed through a proxy server.
It is available on the this Cydia repository http://www.iphone3gsystem.fr/cydia/
It works as it is says but since it runs all the processes through a proxy server setup by the developers at CD-Dev Team it isn’t really advisable for you to install it as it might collect your personal data easily. Check the non-working demo by iDownloadblog.com after the jump.
Many known jailbreak developers have said that this hack works but is illegal and uses copyrighted binaries from the iPhone 4S .
Right now the proxy server is completely slammed and since the Siri requests were pouring is heavily the server is down and could be down for few weeks.
This might not be the perfect Siri port or a very legit way to port Siri to other devices, but surely the work done by the developers is commendable. The Cydia hack despite not being liked for its illegality it surely is the first fully working Siri hack and leaves us hopes of getting Siri on all devices soon.
