The usual suspects again? All conspiracies explained so far?

Let’s get this topic on topic again :slight_smile:

It will be interesting to see what is Huawei doing with their Harmony OS 5 since they are now doing something similar to SFOS - OS made from scratch, not based on android and running android apps in container + microG for google services. If they want to keep their user-base they will have to really nail the android emulation.

As far as SFOS is concerned it all boils down to what kind of deal they can make with their partner that provides appsupport (SeaFrix, i believe they are called?)

OR waydroid will become more mature over time and we will just switch over. It’s waiting game at this point, I’m afraid

I wanted to post this here since I’m doing some research. The proxmox guys cetainly have a mechanism for making bluetooth devices available to lxc containers.

the main issue with the approach is that you’d create a situation where the host/sfos could lose the ability to use bluetooth while the container is using it. Would probably cause a host of pain :slight_smile:

EDIT: relevant kernel patch: [PATCH] net/bluetooth: make bluetooth socket can be created in net namespace

This is OK for many of the bluetooth android apps that cause big problems if you can’t occaisionally use them
e.g lock boxes, configuration apps, etc. These are apps where you can be screwed if you can’t make it work when you have to.

Losing your SFOS headphone connection while you unlock a post box, or rent a scooter is not a show stopper. This would work for me.

It is possible to do the same for NFC?
