Development testers for Anbox

Alkis · 22 Sept 2018, 21:23

was anyone able to update FDroid's repos? Because I can't.

Stefano · 23 Sept 2018, 06:35

@mihael Yes, there is a high battery drain while Anbox is runnning, even whith no open app(android)
I installed some other apps as well.
When : sudo anbox-tool disable.
the battery drain stops, or get's back to normal.

Stefano · 23 Sept 2018, 06:36

@mariogrip works like a charm. Mobile and wifi connections works normal.

Stefano · 23 Sept 2018, 06:38

@mariogrip Any chance to implement Lineage Privacy Guard where we can disable startup apps and/or control the permissions?

Stefano · 23 Sept 2018, 06:58

@mariogrip My android apps that require network access(mobile data, wifi) can't connect to internet.

Stefano · 23 Sept 2018, 12:47

@alkis My Fdroid works just fine, downloading apps, installing, updating(Fdroid itself updated just fine)

Hi, any idea how to uninstall single apps? I just messed up my anbox by installing a "Booking.com" app and now I want to just delete it because it goes crazy. Thank you

@stefano Whatsapp and Viber work for me...

Stefano · 23 Sept 2018, 18:55

@mihael That's interesting. Have you tried Chrome, Chromium or any other Browser? It just hangs here.

Stefano · 23 Sept 2018, 18:57

@malditobastardo install Root Uninnstaller app and then its easy.

@malditobastardo You can do this also when you do this:

adb shell
sudo mount -o rw,remount /
sudo apt update
sudo apt install android-tools-adb
anbox-tool app-list
this is a example of the app-list installed apps on your device:
Aftershock (com.asvcorp.aftershock)
adb uninstall com.asvcorp.aftershock

@stefano Chrome doesn't work. Opera mini neither...

joe · 24 Sept 2018, 00:05

So how would one uninstall anbox completely?

joe · 24 Sept 2018, 00:45

Not sure if a bug or not, but when I run:

sudo lxc-console -ndefault -P /home/phablet/anbox-data/containers -t0

The out put is:
https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/bxDsZ4Qv3z/

And it keeps looping over and over...

Stefano · 24 Sept 2018, 01:13

@joe sudo apt remove anbox-tool
sudo apt purge anbox-tool
???
Flash it over with Ubports installer without wipe?

malditobastardo · 24 Sept 2018, 10:32

@xray2000 Thank you a lot, this worked perfectly

@Stefano thanks for your tip I will try it next time

Hi
i'm having a play around with my pro 5 and trying to install Anbox to see what works etc
for some reason it seems to have got stuck on the install at his point and keep getting this reply :

"sudo fastboot flash boot anbox-boot-turbo.img
[sudo] password for ****:
sudo: fastboot: command not found"

am i doing something wrong here ?

thanks
p.s i'm fairly new to all this and am using terminal on linux mint if that has any bearing on things ?

Stefano · 24 Sept 2018, 13:24

@zx81 Fastboot is not installed on your PC.
Install (on 16.04 ) sudo apt install phablet-tools
Or on (18.04) sudo apt install fastboot

Then, You should type:
sudo fastboot flash bootimg anbox-boot-turbo-test.img

zx81 · 24 Sept 2018, 13:36

Thanks
i'll give it a try

zx81 · 24 Sept 2018, 13:49

@stefano Sorry to be a pest
