Default Fake/Generic Iphone running Android?

Hi all, I've come across a free fake iphone, one of those generic ones. Looks just like a real one except it runs a different OS. I was wondering if someone here might know some clever ways of installing Android on it? I assume since it's a knock-off, that it must be running some sort of linux based OS?

Thing is many of those counterfeit iPhones are already running a version of Android. Often an old version, like 1.6. Not really upgradeable, and TBH most fake iPhones I've seen are garbage.
