        Has anyone figured out the problem with why android apps on the N6P open with a black screen? Because I think I found the problem - an incompatibility between stock anbox and arm64 drivers. According to the following requires a patched driver or to enable software rendering

              @flohack a few apps that i've loaded don't work, including FDroid for some reason. It worked fine on the Nexus 5. Browsers won't open. But Facebook and Messenger work, which is great because Pesbuk crashes on the N6P.

              I have noticed the phone crashing more, but this was before I started installing apps. Anbox runs pretty good on my N6P. So, I don't know why it's not on yours.

                  @lgtrombetta It was to follow green box step two on the ubports anbox page. I've since read, that it has all been added to Dev and you just need to install anbox-tool. Try that, if not the full step two. When I did it, the full step two was required.

                    @lgtrombetta @Flohack I did update anbox via anbox-tool before adding any apps. And I used adb to install them, not anbox-tool. That might be the difference of why it's working for me.
