Android on Samsung Gravity T?

I have a Samsung Gravity T and I was wondering if anyone could refer me to a tutorial on running Android on this phone/a similar phone. It is running TouchWiz (by default) right now.

Thanks.

I don't believe that the "T" series is actually running android at all.

It looks to me that it is a proprietary OS that samsung has on it with a fully customized TouchWiz overlay on Top of it.

Yeah, it runs some crappy proprietary OS by Samsung, but is it possible to run Android on it?

It would take developers month to do that..and chances are the hardware on it is so crappy even if that was possible it would lag so much it would hardly even move..so pretty much not gonna happen.

Why not just get a Galaxy S phone? (on T-mobile thats the Vibrant)

If you could get android on it it would probably just freeze the Gravity T only has 50mb of ram and a 184mhz processor.
