Oneplus One refusing APK install

gatop

Hi,
I've just installed anbox successfully in a new install of OTA9 on a Oneplus One. I've followed the official instructions for installing APKs but it doesn't work:

adb shell
sudo mount -o rw,remount /
sudo apt update
sudo apt install android-tools-adb
adb install /home/phablet/Downloads/my-app.apk

results in this message:

*error: device offline

waiting for device -*

$ adb devices results in:

List of devices attached
emulator-5558 offline

Restarting adb does not bring the device online.

Running:

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

returns:

lxc-console: commands.c: lxc_cmd_console: 717 tty number 0 invalid, busy or all ttys busy

Can anyone give me some advice on how to get this working?

Thanks

Ingo

Does anbox work in general, e.g. can you start the Android settings app?
Last time I fiddled around with anbox I had the impression that you need to start an Android app to actually have anbox fully running (or maybe that was just coincidence).

Wow, yep, that sorted it! Thanks for the help!

hi folks,
i think i am having same issue with 1+1 but opening the android setting app doesn t change a thing
i ve tried several other app like contact (can t add account) , music (black screen ) files (doesn t see any files), calculator , all no luck :'(((
nocomp@8uR34ud3sL1c0rn35:~/tools/android/apk$ adb shell
phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ adb install /home/phablet/Downloads/pogo.apk

daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
daemon started successfully *
error: device offline

waiting for device -

is there a way to install the apk from the device via shell commands?

thxx for your time

thxx @Ingo but no luck

phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ sudo mv /home/phablet/Downloads/pogo.apk ~/anbox-data/data
phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ sudo lxc-console -ndefault -P /home/phablet/anbox-data/container -t0
default is not running
phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ cd data && pm install "pogo.apk"
bash: cd: data: No such file or directory
phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ cd ~/anbox-data/data
phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~/anbox-data/data$ pm install "pogo.apk"
bash: pm: command not found
phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~/anbox-data/data$

how come knowing anbox installed some apps, it didn t installed the installation app kit, would be easier.
i ve did some search on google anbox on linux is an app, i don t find it on mmy phone, so i can t launch it, is it normal or is there something broken?

thxx for your help
