After trying to reinstate Waydroid after OTA-2 I hit a problem with the waydroid-extra folder not existing.

This was solved by running:
>sudo su
#mount -o bind /userdata/system-data/etc/waydroid-extra /etc/waydroid-extra/

I can then launch waydroid.

My problem now is that the mounted folder is unmounted when the session ends, but I dont t recall doing anything when originally setting up Waydroid to make this permanent.

Can anyone explain how to permanently bind the folder?

@ancientsounds

Yes, thank you. But I got there first. however. everytime I boot waydroid. it chmods back. And I cant use it anymore.

@Lakotaubp ı was able to deleted something and now ı have free space system_a(26mb) . I could open OpenStore and installed waydroid helper . Does any way for use commandline ? I must solve disk space error because ı want to use commandline for use like ubuntudesktop

@arubislander

Yes, agreed. Not the greatest link. But a proof of dirty firmware through Google. Eventhough not guilty of this one.

I got pyclip installed but it's not enough or working. Don't do this at home 😉

I'm on a fairphone 4 / OTA1 and followed this bug report https://github.com/waydroid/waydroid/issues/309

cd Downloads wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py sudo python3 get-pip.py --prefix=/usr/local sudo pip install pyclip sudo apt-get update sudo install wl-clipboard

Starting waydroid removes all these errors:

waydroidclipboard: Received transaction: 2 Could not setup clipboard

But copy/paste still doesn't work. It does crash the apps I tried it with (firefox/whatsapp). Then again copy-paste between firefox and whatsapp doesn't seem to work at all without those packages installed either...

@TheBird Yes, it did update.

@TheBird , yes. I noticed same - I though however to look for information if anyone knows how to fix it without workaround like that.
I will live with that for now - thank you a lot.

@lduboeuf , thank you. Unfortunately for me it appears after phone and/or waydroid reboot. I think I even uninstalled waydroid via helper (due to other problems) and it did remain.

@kugiigi @mihael Thanks for the help. Didn't realize it was that easy.

Please remember Waydroid is not a perfect solution to running android apps on UT and you need to set the correct permissions when setting up WayDroid for the apps that can to work correctly
have a look through the post here https://forums.ubports.com/topic/5907/open-ubuntu-touch-to-all-android-applications/99
Also WayDroid is not a part of the UT OS, it is a separate project aimed at making it possible for those that want to use android apps.

Nevermind, it worked for few times. Now even with wifi disabled, my system still crashes so has to be something else cause it also.

@Luksus Yes, that did the trick! Thank you!

@jmlich said in Waydroid infos needed 🙂:

@wgarcia Acctually, I don't use any android applications, but waydroid sound like a way to bypass gap until native applications are written. There is usually one or two apps which locks people to android.

In that case UT works well, but some people think they can keep both an Android phone and a UT phone with Waydroid, which is not the case.

@StephPTi Thanks, that looks just what
I need, ill try it out today.
