Very confused about this.
So I tried the other method of sd-card IMG
gd-lineageos-pinephonepro-userdebug-2023w13.tar.gz
rather than the SD-Card version as I am having difficulty getting the pine64 to boot with the sd-card inserted
and it extracted to these multiple .img files. I don't know which one to write. And FYI, no I am not being mad with you, I am grateful for your assistance, but I am aware of how .img files work. I used to Image my primary HDD to backups, but 8TB takes to long and purchasing a second and third 8+Tb just for a backup is a waste of money.
As the other user wrote, flashing GloDroid is highly involved. It requires booting a specially crafted microSD card image to get Android Fastboot working on the Linux phone and to then flash the phone from there. Also it doesn't have many contributors and not many users, because what's the point of Android on a PinePhone? Plus it is not compatible with Tow-Boot, so you won't get it running easily. And almost nothing will run and it will be very buggy. I would recommend to simply flash a Linux distribution, instead of GloDroid.
