@fp2andfp3-user when did you flash boot.img last time?

I just realized, that I did no stable and rc rebuilds with the new kernel. They are running now.

If you want to stay on stable, you can just download https://gitlab.com/ubports/community-ports/android9/fairphone-3/fairphone-fp3/-/jobs/1444361618/artifacts/download
and find the boot.img in the partition folder.

Then flash it with fastboot.
Boot, reinstall waydroid.
In stable channel you additionally need to install:
sudo ubports-qa install xenial_-_android9_-_wayland.

@luksus OK thanks i will try it and give feedback

FP2andFP3-User

@Luksus

ok on rc level waydroid is starting, and then it crashes before desktop are open. I only see lineage sign before it stops.....

on stable it will not start although i have installed wayland.

you told us, that it is not stable at the moment....we will see the next days

thanks for your support

@fp2andfp3-user

Did you run the container from ther terminal application on the phone?
If yes, you should disable "background suspension" (not sure if its the right word) for terminal with UT Tweak Tool...

FP2andFP3-User

@luksus yes i run it from terminal....
I try
what is the second option to start it?

FP2andFP3-User

@Luksus

I see now the green and black backround picture from lineage and it will not go further....

I do this

sudo ubports-qa install xenial_-_android9_-_wayland

and then

wget -O - https://github.com/Anbox-halium/anbox-halium/raw/lineage-17.1/scripts/install.sh | bash

and after that

sudo /home/anbox/run-container.sh

I'm not sure shall I do this before (sometimes I have done this before)

sudo mount -o rw,remount /

I have also installed the old anbox....

disabled "background suspension" and did it on rc-channel on FP3

Luksus

@fp2andfp3-user

the second option is, to connect over usb/ssh and run the container from ssh session.

hm, I don't know if old anbox can cause issues here..
To be honest, I only tried it on the dev channel.
Also make sure to run the stop-command in a second terminal-tab to avoid issues, with hardware access from host-os.

So my attempt would be:

remove /home/anbox
install the ubports dev channel
install waydroid using the install.sh script (like you already did)
run container

FP2andFP3-User

@luksus thanks I will try it

FP2andFP3-User

@fp2andfp3-user wow now it runs....the setup perfect! Ok at the moment approximately only on dev channel.

Internet is also running it looks good first impression!

magdesign

@fp2andfp3-user

Can you give us a quick step-by-step instruction?

like:

switch to rc channel (keep in mind this or that is not working)
download this... etc.

I guess this would be very helpful for a lot of useres

FP2andFP3-User

@magdesign
1: I switched to dev-channel
2: I installed like it Here described

https://github.com/Anbox-halium/anbox-halium

wget -O - https://github.com/Anbox-halium/anbox-halium/raw/lineage-17.1/scripts/install.sh | bash

And then I have Started the container.

I have only Tried 3 apps

1: fdroid is running
2: signal is not running
3 threema is running With chat. No videocall.

@fp2andfp3-user
Thank you so much!!
I will test too... need somehow to get GPS with organicmaps running

magdesign

@magdesign
It works here too.. following your install steps... this is great

started container with:

sudo /home/anbox/run-container.sh

Internet working out of the box,
f-droid installs without problems,
opening the browser and going to youtube is causing a crash (just to mention),
camera works,
organicmaps installs without problems, but not getting any location yet...
its enabled on waydroid but gps is currently broken on UBPorts Oneplus6 (hope to find a fix soon)...

Will report further tests since the only Waydroid usecase is having offline maps...

Edit:
It seems that I am not able to reboot the phone after switching to RC channel...

@fp2andfp3-user When I start waydroid as indicated, I see this output:

phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ sudo /home/anbox/run-container.sh
[sudo] password for phablet: 
modprobe: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod.c:586 kmod_search_moddep() could not open moddep file '/lib/modules/3.18.31-halium-gac6f57d5/modules.dep.bin'

mount: unknown filesystem type 'binder'
ERROR: Binder and ashmem nodes not found!

After this the screen goes black and the phone becomes unresponsive except for the power button, which allows me to reboot the phone.

How do I install the required modules?
