              @itsjusthim Thanks for trying.
              The kernel misses the telephony support, which causes the imei not showing up. I only own the F model, so I cannot help with this. (n case you would like to try yourself, replace akita_row_wifi with akita_row_call in the deviceinfo file, and in all overlay files, and build the all img files. This will enable the missing kernel support, but more might be missing.)
              I am still working on the grahics issues.

                @k.nacke Just installed UT.
                The issue with this is that waydroid, just doesnt work. I got it to setup, but It spams about sensor not found. I left it for a good 30 minutes, but, it could not recover from that.
                apart from that, the only other issue I could see is that the back camera is very cloudy and any photos is barely understandable.
                Apart from that, the UT itself is great and working minus the videos which you addressed.
                I am open for more testing, please feel free to push a development update. thanks a lot though.

                    Hi @k.nacke . Just tested waydroid and it does not seem to work. I am using the latest build on GitLab.
                    Running

                    waydoid log
                    

                    complains something about not finding device sensors. Waydroid is just stuck at the LineageOS Boot Screen. I left it for approx. 4 hours to boot but it did not work. Can someone please help me?

                      @CaptainTalon Thanks for trying. What did you do with waydroid? I could install it, and it started it (takes an eternity to come up though), but I only tried the web browser. I think the biggest problem is the limited memory of the device.

                        @k.nacke That will be the reason. 2Gb and less is not enough to run the system and Waydroid on any UT device.

                        Xiaomi Redmi Note 7.... And more...
                        I have too many devices...

                          @k.nacke I created a 1GB swapfile but Waydroid still did not work. I also installed Waydroid using Waydroid Helper. Will try to make a bigger swapfile. (approx. 4GB) Hopefully it works.
