      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...

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

            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 ?

              @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

                        @mariogrip Great work! 🙂 One question, though: How would I evaluate if something is an issue with anbox itself or with the image?

                          @stefano I have tried several times and got no further
                          It now says something about not having a sandbox installed

                          Have had to go to work now (work always gets in the way lol) so will have another go tomorrow

                          Thanks for your help so far

                            @zx81 Yeah, I had that message there as well.
                            It should be ok, though.
                            Refresh your Home screen (apps scope ) by dragging down and the Android apps should appear on the screen, or reboot.
                            You can also verify if its installed by typing in terminal on your phone:

                            anbox-tool status

                                @mariogrip any information on what we Flo users would need to do to get it running, or do we still need the mainline kernel to be up and running under Halium properly first (I'm down to experiment!!)? I can attempt to whip up a custom kernel as long as I know what patches I'm applying to it! Kinda hoping it would be similar to arale and need the anbox drivers compiled in.

                                  @mihael I installed Whatsapp sucessfully, but when I open it it tells me that the time is wrong. I've adjusted the time in "Settings", but Whatsapp keeps telling me the same, and doesn't go further. Anybody knows how to pass this "Date is incorrect" screen?

                                      @mihael Turns out I had installed an old version of Whatsapp, I installed the current one and now it opens OK.

                                        I have an app that looks for com.google.android.maps at the installation (adb install). I have installed the google maps apk which shows as:
                                        Maps (com.google.android.apps.maps)
                                        when I do anbox-tool app-list
                                        Can I somehow change the package name that appears in that list, and if so, would that satisfy the app looking for it when trying to install?

                                          @tomoqv No you can not change package name Android reads this out of the manifest file that is into the apk when installing, when you change this the app will never work again.

                                            So I wonder if there is any google package that carries the name com.google.android.maps?
