The OHA was established on November 5, 2007, led by Google with 34 members,[1] including mobile handset makers, application developers, some mobile network operators and chip makers.[3]Android, the flagship software of the alliance, is based on an open-source license and has competed against mobile platforms from Apple (iOS), Microsoft (Windows Phone), Nokia (Symbian), HP (formerly Palm), Samsung Electronics / Intel (Tizen, bada), and BlackBerry (BlackBerry OS).
As part of its efforts to promote a unified Android platform, OHA members are contractually forbidden from producing devices that are based on competing forks of Android.[4][5]

At the same time as the announcement of the formation of the Open Handset Alliance on November 5, 2007, the OHA also unveiled Android Open Source Project, an open-source mobile phone platform based on the Linux kernel.[1] An early look at the SDK was released to developers on November 12, 2007.[6]
The first commercially available phone running Android was the HTC Dream (also known as the T-Mobile G1). It was approved by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) on August 18, 2008,[7] and became available on October 22 of that year.[8]
