        @mariogrip Thank you for all the help! Yes, I installed WhatsApp and Viber. Do you thing the battery drainage might be because of these two apps?

        Yes, anbox-tool disable stops the battery drainage so is definitely not the kernel's fault.

        I was misled by the situations when android apps would not start (thinking this is because of the container not running) but the battery drainage being still constant. Later I discovered that the services can be stopped with anbox-tool disable and then battery drainage stops.

        There is still this question: sometimes the android apps would not start and I cannot login into the container and then my only solution is to restart the device. Is there a command to restart the android services or the container or something?

        Again, thank you!

            @mihael Yes, there is a high battery drain while Anbox is runnning, even whith no open app(android)
            I installed some other apps as well.
            When : sudo anbox-tool disable.
            the battery drain stops, or get's back to normal.

                @mariogrip Any chance to implement Lineage Privacy Guard where we can disable startup apps and/or control the permissions?

                  @mariogrip My android apps that require network access(mobile data, wifi) can't connect to internet.

                      Hi, any idea how to uninstall single apps? I just messed up my anbox by installing a "Booking.com" app and now I want to just delete it because it goes crazy. Thank you

                          @mihael That's interesting. Have you tried Chrome, Chromium or any other Browser? It just hangs here.

                              @malditobastardo You can do this also when you do this:

                              adb shell
                              sudo mount -o rw,remount /
                              sudo apt update
                              sudo apt install android-tools-adb
                              anbox-tool app-list
                              this is a example of the app-list installed apps on your device:
                              Aftershock (com.asvcorp.aftershock)
                              adb uninstall com.asvcorp.aftershock

                                @stefano Chrome doesn't work. Opera mini neither...

                                    Not sure if a bug or not, but when I run:

                                    sudo lxc-console -ndefault -P /home/phablet/anbox-data/containers -t0

                                    The out put is:
                                    https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/bxDsZ4Qv3z/

                                    And it keeps looping over and over...

                                      @joe sudo apt remove anbox-tool
                                      sudo apt purge anbox-tool
                                      ???
                                      Flash it over with Ubports installer without wipe?

                                          Hi
                                          i'm having a play around with my pro 5 and trying to install Anbox to see what works etc
                                          for some reason it seems to have got stuck on the install at his point and keep getting this reply :

                                          "sudo fastboot flash boot anbox-boot-turbo.img
                                          [sudo] password for ****:
                                          sudo: fastboot: command not found"

                                          am i doing something wrong here ?

                                          thanks
                                          p.s i'm fairly new to all this and am using terminal on linux mint if that has any bearing on things ?

                                            @zx81 Fastboot is not installed on your PC.
                                            Install (on 16.04 ) sudo apt install phablet-tools
                                            Or on (18.04) sudo apt install fastboot

                                            Then, You should type:
                                            sudo fastboot flash bootimg anbox-boot-turbo-test.img
