Newpipe picture-in-picture works without too many crashes - here's a quick video showing how glodroid performs.

Any idea when we may have calling / gps / camera in glodroid?

Thanks

Unknown but in the meanwhile playing with the current release.

I had no luck with mupen64plus in retropie on debian but installed it on glodroid and n64 emulation works pretty well - here's a blurrycam video of the results

pushing the pinephone a bit further - dreamcast emulation is probably the limit but the reicast virtual joypad doesn't want to work. Controls work on the flycast core in retroarch but sound stutters more - here's a quick video demo.

Probably cameras will be next Milestone.

Has anyone found a workaround for bug 39? https://github.com/GloDroid/glodroid_manifest/issues/39

I also tried downgrading to 0.2.0, but that has its own bug: the phone boots but the screen remains blank.

Do you have instructions or script to install Glodroid on pinephone?

Do you have instructions or script to install Glodroid on pinephone?

Go to release page and click on assets dropdown arrow. For latest version, download gd-pinephone-v0.3.0.tar.gz and extract archive to a folder.

Then follow Deploying GloDroid instructions on main page but summarised:

1) flash sd card with  deploy-sd-for.emmc.img
2) insert sd card in phone and connect to pc with red usb cable
3) phone display will remain black but wait 10secs
4) open terminal on pc and goto directory where archive extracted
5) run install script, eg  bash ./flash-emmc.sh
6) when script pauses, hold power button for 10secs, disconnect cable
6) remove sd card, reconnect usb cable and press enter
7) phone will display fastboot menu and script will continue
8) if failure message, run install script again
9) if success message, reboot phone to start android

0) if adb not already installed on pc then  sudo apt install adb
X) don't want install to emmc? substitute with deploy-sd.img  
and flash-sd.sh

Z) some reports of usb issues which prevent deploy method of install - in which case, read this thread or download v0.20 and flash as a regular image
