Then the Plinius is released, it has everything I want from a phone, everything, and it comes with something that I love (linux), but I live in a country that is extremely dependent on some android apps such as BankID (thanks scandinavia), I have gotten BankID to work on both GrapheneOS and /e/OS so Ubuntu Touch wasn't a problem for me (I thought) because of waydroid.

As long as I can get waydroid, I can get my essential apps for day to day in this dystopian digital society.

I have never used debian/ubuntu (only fedora and arch based distros) before so I read the Ubuntu Touch pamphlet that came with my brand new Volla Plinius to figure out how to get waydroid working, it said to use waydroid helper.

I turn on my phone and immediately update everything, then I go to open store and download waydroid helper, I press install and wait, nothing is happening, it is just there infinitely, it says preparing to download image but nothing is happening.

I do some research, I find this forum, some guys says it can take up to an hour, another person reports it took him a whole two hours, I put it on and wait an hour, it doesn't work, it still says "preparing to download image", I then continue to wait two hours and still nothing, I then decide to let it run overnight and wait a full 8 hours while sleeping, nothing again.

I then check the documentation which gives me different directions than the pamphlet that my phone came with, I write "waydroid init" into my terminal, I get root error so I instead write "sudo waydroid init" and I get that it failed tp get vendor OTA ID, with a specific Halium 14 json version of waydroid.

I end up doing even more research and find out that I can manually download waydroid and do sudo waydroid init -f and it should use the manually downloaded image instead.

That's when I learn that the latest waydroid version available on sourceforge is Halium 13, I think back to when I tried to use the terminal and it said halium_14.json so I research and according to my research halium 13 is not compatible with halium 14 devices, so there is seemingly not even a point in me using the halium 13 waydroid image as it won't work according to both google and duckduckgo.

So now I am just lost, is there no solutions to my predicament?
