@stanwood thanks to all i will test it

@stanwood do you know which apps will stop Working? For example axolotl? How can i remove it after testing?

Thanks

stanwood

@fp2andfp3-user I had troubles with Camera, Calculator, Notes, and a few others (don't remember exactly). I had to reinstall UT.

FP2andFP3-User

@stanwood and Format data?

stanwood

@fp2andfp3-user Now I'm just looking at https://docs.waydro.id/usage/install-on-desktops

And it seems a complete new way (and easier) to install...

sudo -s
sudo mount -o remount,rw /
apt update
apt install waydroid -y
waydroid init

Then restart device, then:

sudo waydroid container start
waydroid session start

BUT, I asked for a confirmation to the WayDroid Telegram group. I will edit this message if it's wrong...

Edit: It seems correct for UT. BTW, I didn't test it so far...

@stanwood
Don't forget to say system must be made read/write before starting process ^^

Anyway, does that new install process means we don't need anymore a patched kernel to run waydroid ?

stanwood

@keneda Indeed, That's what I understood as well.
Needs to be tested though.

Edit: Thank you, I just add sudo mount -o remount,rw / in my previous installation guide

Getting the same result after running

waydroid init

There is an icon for Waydroid within the launcher. Running on OnePlus One.

stanwood

@codenul Did you restart your device and test again?

Emphrath

@codenul you can't run waydroid on oneplus one. It's a halium 5 device, halium 7 with the development branch. Waydroid will only run on halium 9+ devices.

stanwood

@stanwood For information, an update has been done on the waydro.id website.

I just edit the configuration above according to the website.
Not been tested from my side though....

@dieharddan said in anbox halium or waydroid no support for UT?:

@stanwood I tried with a pixel 3a and when i start wayland I get
"start: Unknown job: waydroid"

I fixed my issue by reinstalling Ubuntu Touch and reinstalling waydroid with the following only:

sudo -s
sudo mount -o remount,rw /
apt update
apt install waydroid
waydroid init

Reboot phone

@emphrath
Interesting. Thanks for the information. I'm currently on the development channel. Is there any other benefits (other than halium 5 > halium 7) that I would gain if I switched over to Halium-development channel for updates?
