        @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.

                    complains something about not finding device sensors.

                    I'll check as soon as I get my next kernel change working.

                      @k.nacke Ok will be waiting 🙂
                      Edit: Also there is no directory called binderfs in /dev which is needed for waydroid to work

                        I just installed this and it works great except I have a crackling sound from the speakers and headphones when I'm listening to anything. The speakers were fine with android.

                          @neonmodder123 I can reproduce the hang, which is good.
                          I think there is no binderfs in the kernel 4.9 - simply too old for that.

                            Latest build has the following updates:

                            • Now building Noble
                            • Waydroid working again
                            • Fixed some typos in the udev rules

                            Annoyingly, the missing letters seems to be worse on Noble. I did not yet find a way to fix that.

                            Have fun,
                            Kai

                              @k.nacke You have Waydroid working on this low RAM device?

                              Xiaomi Redmi Note 7.... And more...
