Using Waydroid on Sailfish OS, according to https://github.com/lal883/tama-sailfish-waydroid-instructios, and I ran Magisk script, and rebooted, and Magisk app installed, but doesn't do anything without installing Magisk, (installation status shows "n/a"). The only method option given to install is to select and patch a file. I don't think patching Sailfish boot img would work, but not sure what other file I would patch ...

I saw note in README about it being a "bootless" installation, and that modules won't work, but as it is for me, root won't even work, and the app does nothing...

Whenever I try to start a non-native architechure app, the app crashes almost immediately, with the following printed in logcat:

11-28 22:31:34.051  5154  5154 E linker  : library "/system/lib64/arm64/nb/libtcb.so" ("/system/lib64/arm64/nb/libtcb.so") needed or dlopened by "/system/lib64/libhoudini.so" is not accessible for the namespace: [name="(default)", ld_library_paths="", default_library_paths="/system/lib64:/system/product/lib64", permitted_paths="/system/lib64/drm:/system/lib64/extractors:/system/lib64/hw:/system/product/lib64:/system/framework:/system/app:/system/priv-app:/vendor/framework:/vendor/app:/vendor/priv-app:/system/vendor/framework:/system/vendor/app:/system/vendor/priv-app:/odm/framework:/odm/app:/odm/priv-app:/oem/app:/system/product/framework:/system/product/app:/system/product/priv-app:/data:/mnt/expand:/apex/com.android.runtime/lib64/bionic:/system/lib64/bootstrap"]

The script is using sources for GAPPS which are no longer valid, causing a download error. In addition, even when manually changing the sources, the script still fails to successfully install GAPPS:

/tmp is cleared across reboots. At least on Arch Linux, it is actually a tmpfs that is on RAM. Every time I re-init waydroid and reinstall libhoudini, the script re-downloads the tarball. Perhaps it would be better if the downloaded files are placed in persistent directories, such as /var/cache and /var/tmp.

BTW, some common external downloaders, such as wget and aria2, would be more robust and allow continuation.

when trying to run udo python3 waydroid_extras.py -i it fails with the following traceback:

Libhoudini installation is still broken after last commit: FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/tmp/waydroidimage/system/etc/init/hw/init.rc'

Setting the default value for os.environ.get("ANDROID_VERSION") back to 10 (it's the same for install_ndk method, wich is working fine)

Since WSA and Waydroid function almost very similarly, we can probably use a project called "MagiskOnWSA" and port it to wayland for proper magisk support on waydroid :3 https://github.com/LSPosed/MagiskOnWSA

[1] Install commands for Ubuntu Touch (UBports, Halium-9.0, Xiaomi Mi8 - dipper)

sudo apt install lzip git
sudo apt install -y python3-pip
git clone https://github.com/casualsnek/waydroid_script
cd waydroid_script
sudo python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt
sudo python3 waydroid_extras.py [-m/-i/-g/-n/-h]

[2] UBports by default makes small (1.4G) /data partition, so, when installing waydroid_script you can face: ==> Installing magisk now ... OSError: [Errno 28] No space left on device

Check in Terminal or SSH

sudo df -h

/dev/loop1 1,4G 1,4G 0 100% /var/lib/waydroid/rootfs /dev/loop3 1,4G 1,4G 0 100% /tmp/waydroidimage

sudo losetup /dev/loop1
sudo losetup /dev/loop3

[3] CURE: increase Waydroid /data image size (using ADB)

1) reboot to custom recovery (TWRP, OrangeFox, UBports) by "fastboot reboot recovery" etc.
2) adb shell ## connect with adb
3) mount -o rw /dev/block/by-name/userdata /data ##mount /data
4) cd /data/system-data/var/lib/waydroid/images ## cd /data
5) dd if=/data/system-data/var/lib/waydroid/images/system.img of=/sdcard/waydroid-system.img status=progress ## just for safety make copy to be able to revert
6) e2fsck -f system.img ##check image health
7) resize2fs -p system.img 5G ##resize /data to 5GB (you can choose any other size)
8) reboot system

Como señala el la cuestión, al correr

git clone https://github.com/casualsnek/waydroid_script cd waydroid_script sudo python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt sudo python3 waydroid_extras.py [-i/-g/-n/-h]

obtengo como resultado:

**$ git clone https://github.com/casualsnek/waydroid_script

No se ha encontrado la orden «git», pero se puede instalar con:

sudo apt install git

$ cd waydroid_script bash: cd: waydroid_script: No existe el archivo o el directorio

$ sudo python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt /usr/bin/python3: No module named pip

$ sudo python3 waydroid_extras.py [-i/-g/-n/-h]**

Qué debo hacer para que resulte como es debido?

I'm ising Waydroid 1.1.1 on SailfishOS, according to https://github.com/lal883/tama-sailfish-waydroid-instructios and functions fine. After successfully running "python3 waydroid_extras.py -g", ("OpenGapps successfully installed" message), Waydroid now will not boot.

Status shows container running and session running, but never shows "ready" message, which would indicate that "show-full-ui" command will succeed. Also, "puddlejumper service" message never appears.

Any ideass how to troubleshoot?

This is running on Pop!_OS 22.04

I'm running Waydroid in Ubuntu 22.10. The CPU doesn't support SSE4.2, so Waydroid installs 32-bit Android. It works. But then if I install libhoudini, it stops working. The only relevant error message I'm able to see is this in waydroid log: lxc-start: waydroid: conf.c: run_buffer: 321 Script exited with status 126

This seems to be because of the way build props are set, including 64 abi props. I got Waydroid to work again by changing abi props to:

ro.product.cpu.abi=x86
ro.product.cpu.abilist=x86,armeabi-v7a,armeabi
ro.product.cpu.abilist32=x86,armeabi-v7a,armeabi

After that I could install an app with 32 bit arm libraries. But then, trying to run it, I get this in logcat:

11-15 16:33:10.653 44041 44110 D houdini : [44110] Expected CPU feature >> AES << is not supported.
11-15 16:33:10.653 44041 44110 D houdini : [44110] Expected CPU feature >> POPCNT << is not supported.
11-15 16:33:10.653 44041 44110 D houdini : [44110] Expected CPU feature >> SSE4_2 << is not supported.
11-15 16:33:10.653 44041 44110 D houdini : [44110] Expected CPU feature >> PCLMULQDQ << is not supported.
11-15 16:33:10.658    45    45 I tombstoned: received crash request for pid 44041

So, at least this build of houdini can't actually run on my CPU. I wonder if houdini can be built without those requirements?

Edit: Installing libndk runs into the same problems. Again there is a need to edit system/build.prop the same way. Then when I try to run the app, it dies with SIGILL (illegal instruction) in the NDK library.

Using https://github.com/mirh/opemu-linux, which I needed to alter a bit to run with my kernel, the translators crash a different way instead. Opemu works well enough to make POPCNT work, but I guess there are some problems with other instructions.

Just wondering if this script use lastest libhoudini, came across this post on reddit Latest Waydroid image now runs "Genshin Impact" on x86 Linux PC quote from OP in comment section:

You can downlaod lastest Android 11 images from Waydroid's sourceforge. Then follow this video to install custom Waydroid images. Remember to install libhoudini using casualsnek's scripts. Plus here is the newer version of libhoudini extracted from WSA.

i don't really know how it works, and i don't know if this can be use with this script. just want to share what i found.

Thank for the script btw, still try to play some game (Nikke goddess victory / Artery Gear) on waydroid) hope it'll run 😄

Im using arch with linux-zen. I installed the waydroid-image-gapps AUR package and it worked fine, but i wanted to get arm support. Installed waydroid-image, this script and installed libhoudini, and i was stuck in a bootloop. Reinstalled waydroid-image, cuz i thought it will remove libhoudini, and installed libndk this time. Bootloop. Reinstalled waydroid-image, and its now also stuck in a bootloop. Im guessing that libhoudini and libndk are still there, how do i remove them?
