Why there is no Android subforum under Pine Phone software? 
Not enough interest?

From my point of view it would be useful to have a running image for few reasons.

- users that are android app dependent can run those apps, even in dual boot scenario its good to have android installed in case of ocassional need for it.
- until anbox matures, people could actually use pinephone as daily driver on android, rather then having it as secondary device to play with (daily use the hardware you purchased, and reboot to linux for play Smile

I think I saw a mention of android image booting on pinephone somewhere, doesnt it deserve its own section under OS?
if there is android for pine tablet, why not for pine phone?

and just a small disclaimer. Android is free and open source software. I am not talking about android google bundle. My main driver is LineageOS device without any traces of google software or microg services, and its running perfectly fine. 90% of applications do not need google to run.

thoughts?

thanks

virtualbox not working for this ?
