Native apps for mobile without OOP (except WebView) - possible?

Hello!
For five years I have been writing in PHP "noodles", i.e. functionally, OOP never mastered it, although I tried many times. For the small projects I worked on, this was enough.
I got interested in developing for mobile platforms, but not WebView, in the form of slow HTML5 + JS, but native applications.
Tell me, is it possible to create native applications for mobile platforms (Android\iOS\WinPhone\BlackBerry, etc.) without OOP?
Perhaps, besides Java and Objective-C, which are infused with OOP, other promising platforms allow you to create native applications with functional programming?
Now there are a lot of new mobile operating systems coming out - all sorts of Bada, Tizen, etc.
Thanks a lot!

First, "noodles" is not functional, but procedural. It would be functional if you wrote, for example, in node.js, but then OOP would not be a stumbling block at all :)
Well, in essence the question: no, without OOP nothing worthwhile, especially "native", will not work . Do not expect miracles and do not believe those who will promise them! It's like looking for such a special promising hammer with which you can make cars "no worse" than those made on machine tools and robots :)
Moreover, OOP does not need to be mastered - you need to understand the principles and learn how to use a tool (language) that facilitates them usage. PHP is far from the best choice for this. It is not for nothing that students are taught OOP using the example of languages ​​with strong typing, for example, the same Java.
