      Am trying to install Waydroid on UT 20.04 but keep getting "Archives directory /var/cache/apt/archives/partial missing".
      I installed it before with the Helper app however, Android will not connect to wifi even if I disconnect UT from wifi so...I thought I'd try to install waydroid manual mode but I'm not getting anywhere

      I'll take any help/suggestions on this except...taking on lawn-bowling as a hobby.

      UT/Pixel 3a as my daily driver an' lovin' it

        @ckrnkfrnchmn I think waydroid never connected to wifi. There are Android apps I think to fake wifi for other apps.

          1. Waydroid is already initially installed on 20.04, so there is no need to install it.
            You just need to do a sudo waydroid init, which is, what the helper app is doing too.
          2. Waydroid does not connect itself through WiFi, but has a bridged network connection from the host system (Ubuntu Touch). It is indicated in the android topbar with the <--> icon.
