        @stanwood Would it help if we had a Waydroid specific section under support like we do noe for Libertine. I think it would be good idea and we could move the existing threads and posts into it.

          @lakotaubp Indeed, Good idea.
          And anyway, I will try to keep this post updated as the project evolves.
          Feel free to move it in a new thread / section if needed 😉
          Thank you.

              First, check that your device porting is built under Halium 9 or higher and has the appropriate kernel patches.

              Thank you for the tutorial but how can I check this ?

                @pulsar33 Settings, About, Operating system, Device version description, the number after "user debug" must be 9 or higher.

                  Thats for the "built under Halium 9 or higher" part only, right? Is there a way to see also if the appropriate kernel patches (not sure myself what those are) are there?

                          That was what I wanted to know.
                          So no solution for me (and soon, no more update if I understand)

                                @stanwood Thanks for your work!
                                For your above list:
                                Waydroid does not work on Lenovo Tab M10 X605F (Halium 9).
                                The device crashes immediately after doing apt install waydroid -y.
                                Afterwards it will not boot again. Will only show "Lenovo powered by android".
                                I had to flash again.

                                  @muskist Thank you, I just updated the list.
                                  Sorry that WD doesn't work on that device.
                                  Maybe some kernel patches are missing.
                                  You can try to contact the porter...

                                    @stanwood Hello.
                                    Could you add the answers to this question in the tuto? Thanks

                                    How to install/update/desinstall an apk not using F-DROID or Aurora Store, which come from Github for example?

                                      @domubpkm check this:

                                      phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ waydroid app remove com.android.example <- You can find this when you do waydroid app list

                                      For the other help commands do phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ waydroid app -h

                                      To update you can check if Aurora Store see the app, if not there is the only way to keep look the repo for example on Github for updates

                                        @stanwood We just updated WaydroidHelper and now have an included "Waydroid Installer" that does what is explained here automatically. We hope that we can make Waydroid more accessible. 🙂

                                          @aarontheissueguy This is gorgeous! Thanks a lot for these new features!
                                          This is a major step forward in the usability of WayDroid on Ubuntu Touch!
                                          I did translate the whole app in French so I hope french speaking users can also benefit more easily from these features. (I hope you have been able to recover the data from poeditor.com according to my exchanges with Rudi)
                                          I have also edited the installation guide above.
                                          One more time, a Big thank you to you and @ruditimmer ! :beaming_face_with_smiling_eyes:

                                            But it's strange, I would have thought first of all of an automation of the installation procedure of MICRO G (if it's feasible of course!) than google GAPPS/Apps first !! 🙂

                                              @domubpkm All we do with the GAPPS is changing one parameter during "waydroid Init" which results in a different android image with google services being used for installation.
