Open Ubuntu Touch to all Android applications !

@stanwood Hi, I followed this but for lost somewhere along the way. I reset the phone but still have a waydroid icon in my apps draw. How do I remove it completely?

@matt73 Will not the WayDroid Helper app not do it with a complete restart after? If not try UT TweakTool to clear cache, user data etc then delete WayDroid.

Matt73

@lakotaubp Ok, strange how the Waydroid icon remains after a factory reset. I will try what you suggested. If it doesn't work, do you know how I would completely wipe the phone and start again? I have a Google Pixel 3a XL.

@lakotaubp Couldn't see how to clear cache in UT tweaks. I just want to remove all traces of Waydroid off the phone, get UT up and running again and leave it at that for now. I'm not a natural nerd and this is just giving me a headache now.

@matt73 To remove a remaining icon, open terminal and:

cd /home/phablet/.local/share/applications
rm 'APPLICATION NAME'

@stanwood Thanks

Thank you for your instruction. Now I can run Waydroid on UT by click waydroid desktop icon with google pixel 3.
According to my understanding Waydroid is a wayland client, but I can't run glmark2-es2-wayland directly on UT or start Waydroid direrctly in UT terminal, how should I run a wayland client ?

@stanwood Thank you for the detailed description.

I followed the method (manual installation) on a Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro.

apt update run with several error messages,
after that everything went smoothly,
except the last command: there is no anbox.conf file, there is no gbinder.d directory at all.

Can you give me any hint?

Thank you in advance.

@madas I've manually created the anbox.conf file and followed the manual procedure as well. I didn't get an error for gbinder. I wiped my phone to try something else so I don't have waydroid now but if u r still stuck let me know.

@nakele How did you generate the anbox. conf? I have a Vollaphone (Ota-24), the installation of Waydroid was perfect, but I get the error that no path/file gbinder.d/anbox.conf exists - and under etc it really does not exist. Waydroid can not be started after that.

@plenzdorf
cd /etc/gbinder.d/
sudo nano
Ctrl+o (saves file)
You will be prompted to name the file
Call file anbox.conf
