Installing AlienDalvik on desktop Linux

Anyone try this? I don’t have an aarch64 machine available to test on… But I could try qemu. Does anyone know if there are any deps specific to SailfishOS?

aliendalvik is designed to work on certain Android Vendor devices with certain Android Vendor drivers via libhybris. You can’t just launch it everywhere you want.

I would love to have it run on a PinePhone or something like it… Is it possible to do? To make it run on something like it?

In short: NO

BTW, the license for AD is non-transferable.

First Step: port SailfishOS to PinePhone :wink:
Second Step: get Jolla to officially support it and offer AD license

Read carefully: Aliendalvik works only on android based devices.

You can try https://anbox.io/ instead though.

Camera access at the least is important to me. Anbox does not support camera input/passthrough
