Before install Waydroid, make sure that your kernel supports binder and ashmem module (currently only linux-zen does)

Keep in mind that Waydroid only works with Wayland compositors. It also does not work yet with proprietary NVIDIA driver.

After install waydroid and waydroid-image, run this command to initialize the container:

# waydroid init

Then the container can be started via waydroid-container.service. The official project group/channel can be found on:

for kernel with CONFIG_BPF_UNPRIV_DEFAULT_OFF=y (such as linux-zen>=5.15.14), you need to set kernel.unprivileged_bpf_disabled=0 via sysctl.
otherwise binder transaction will failed (edit: maybe not caused by this)

Has anyone here run into:

Failed to get service waydroidplatform, trying again...

... with the waydroid-container service running?

https://github.com/waydroid/waydroid/issues/282

I've been getting this with the linux-zen kernel.

Looks like several users (including me) have issues running waydroid with the linux-xanmod-anbox kernel (from AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/linux-xanmod-anbox/): https://github.com/waydroid/waydroid/issues/136

Edit: I can confirm that this can be fixed by adding "psi=1" to kernel command like suggested here: https://github.com/waydroid/waydroid/issues/136#issuecomment-949694932

xclip is also required as a optional dependencies for clipboard sharing

@x1unix Clipboard manager isn't really required for Waydroid to start, so I added it to optdepends.

Any hints for internet connection inside the Android system?

I tried this from postmarketOS wiki: echo "/bin/ip route add default via 192.168.250.1" | sudo waydroid shell

But it says it can't find the route. I don't have any kind of firewall enabled at the moment.

EDIT: seems to be fixed after executing the steps from de Anbox wiki page: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Anbox#Via_NetworkManager (but substitute anbox by waydroid in both places of the command)

@Danct12 please add pyclip as dependency (not available in AUR) to pass "Failed to start Clipboard manager service" issue.

It just doesn't start on latest Arch:

(014577) [19:31:22] Failed to start Clipboard manager service, check logs (014577) [19:31:27] Clipboard service is not even started (013106) [19:31:27] session manager stopped, stopping container and waiting...
