DISCLAIMER: We will not be held responsible if you lose data or your device gets damaged in the following of this guide. Proceed at your own risk.
These instructions come straight from the developers:
Step 1: Install PlayBook OS 2.0 Beta on your PlayBook [Official Website]
Step 2: Root your BlackBerry PlayBook with DingleBerry [Instructions].
Step 3: Download Google Apps [CyanogenMod Wiki].
Step 4: Package an Android app as a .bar file, install and launch it to set things up. Consider installing a launcher app since it will be required later on to actually launch Market. Get one from here [PlayBook BARS]
Step 5: Using WinSCP for Windows, log into your BlackBerry PlayBook as root. Copy the system folder from Google Apps in Step 3 to the root of your PlayBook’s storage and merge it with the PlayBook’s own system folder.
Step 6: Using a terminal with root access, enter the following commands:
mv /system/app/SetupWizard.apk /system/app/SetupWizard.apk.bak
Step 7: You must now kill the Android Player with:
cd /apps/sys.android.XXXX.ns/native/scripts
and then run ./android-player-cmd.sh kill-android-core.sh
The XXXX above is different for each device.
Step 8: Using a launcher from Step 4, launch Android Market and enter account details.
If you followed the steps correctly, Android Market will now be installed and working on your BlackBerry PlayBook.
