Windows 7 Android Rockz! (also known as ARockz!) is a lost Windows 7 SP1 bootleg, which was created by SRusM. It released on January 21, 2012.

Description

Unfortunately, not a lot of info remains about the Android Rockz! bootleg, but as the name suggests, it is themed after the Android operating system, and came with a variety of programs and registry tweaks. It came in 32-bit and 64-bit, and was not activated at least based on the description. Strangely, the OS appears on a few PC driver websites that list otherwise authentic Windows releases.

On the first bootup, a Windows 7 Toolkit appears, and the user can select which applications to install.

Known file names: Windows 7 Android Rockz!x86SP1Fu.ISO, Windows.7.Prof.AndroidRockz.SP1.x64.CyberKilleR.ISO

Changes from Windows 7 SP1

The logon and OOBE screen backgrounds have been replaced with a background that says "7" following a humorous picture based on the March of Progress, with the last human replaced with the Android logo.
The setup screen has been replaced with the same 7 seen in the logon background with three Android logos each spoofing the three wise monkeys.
The "Welcome" text has been changed to "Welcome Android Rockz!"
Icons have been added to the desktop, The "Computer", "Network", "Control Panel", "Start 8", and "Recycle Bin" icons have all been changed to appropriately themed Android counterparts.
The cursor has been changed.
The start button, Internet Explorer, File Explorer, and Media Player icons have all been replaced.
The desktop wallpaper has been replaced with a graffiti art of the Android logo below text that says "Android Rockz!". The original background can be found here, albeit without the 7 or Windows 7 logo, as those elements were added in by the author.
