'''Melange''' is a [[Cellphone_emulators#Binary Runtime Environment for Wireless (BREW)|BREW]] wrapper <small>(Not an exactly emulator, mixed of compatibility layer)</small> for [[Emulators on Android|Android]] device.
Filesystem implementation is written in C++ and the rest is in C. While the core emulator is free and open-source, it relies on proprietary components from Qualcomm, the creators of BREW.
==Overview==
As BREW and Android share the ARM architecture, Melange only has to translate specific calls, as with [[wine]] on POSIX-compliant operating systems, like macOS and Linux, providing increased performance compared to a virtual machine or emulator.
It can boot many 2D/3D BREW games not requiring that don't require OpenGL (e.g. Id Software games, EA games) or some other APIs. As such, some KTF/KDDI/Chinese BREW titles work with font problem, but have trouble properly rendering fonts and no [[Zeebo ]] titles are currently supported, as OpenGL is unimplemented. The emulator is in still in early development.

Downloaded BREW apps are tied to an individual handset via a digital signature, making piracy or sideloading difficult if not impossible. However, some devices can run backups and pirated apps, which are much rarer and harder to find than ones for J2ME. Many games have been dumped, but most are undumped as of yet. There are a collections of European, American and Korean titles, but not Japanese and Chinese ones.
