Install OpenGapps

Then launch waydroid with:

waydroid show-full-ui

After waydroid has finished booting open terminal and switch to directory where "main.py" is located then run:

sudo python3 main.py google

Copy the returned numeric ID open "https://google.com/android/uncertified/?pli=1" enter the id and register it, you may need to wait upto 10-20 minutes for device to get registered, then clear Google Play Service's cache and try logging in !

Install Magisk

sudo python3 main.py install magisk

Magisk will be installed on next boot !

Zygisk and modules like LSPosed should work now.

Please use Direct Install into system partition to update Magisk in Magisk manager.

This script only focuses on Magisk installation, if you need more management, please check https://github.com/nitanmarcel/waydroid-magisk

Install libndk arm translation

libndk_translation from guybrush firmware.

libndk seems to have better performance than libhoudini on AMD.

Open terminal and switch to directory where "main.py" is located then run:

sudo python3 main.py install libndk

Install libhoudini arm translation

Intel's libhoudini for intel/AMD x86 CPU, pulled from Microsoft's WSA 11 image

houdini version: 11.0.1b_y.38765.m

houdini64 version: 11.0.1b_z.38765.m

Open terminal and switch to directory where "main.py" is located then run:

sudo python3 main.py install libhoudini

Integrate Widevine DRM (L3)

Install Smart Dock

Open terminal and switch to directory where "main.py" is located then run:

sudo python3 main.py install smartdock

Granting full permission for apps data (HACK)

This is a temporary hack to combat against the apps permission issue on Android 11. Whenever an app is open it will always enable a property (persist.sys.nodataperm) to make it execute a script to grant the data full permissions (777). The correct way is to use sdcardfs or esdfs, both need to recompile the kernel or WayDroid image.

Arknights, PUNISHING: GRAY RAVEN and other games won't freeze on the black screen.

Open terminal and switch to directory where "main.py" is located then run:

sudo python3 main.py install nodataperm

WARNING: Tested on lineage-18.1-20230128-VANILLA-waydroid_x86_64.img. This script will replace /system/framework/service.jar, which may prevent WayDroid from booting. If so, run sudo python3 main.py uninstall nodataperm to remove it.

Or you can run the following commands directly in sudo waydroid shell. In this way, every time a new game is installed, you need to run it again, but it's much less risky.

chmod 777 -R /sdcard/Android
chmod 777 -R /data/media/0/Android 
chmod 777 -R /sdcard/Android/data
chmod 777 -R /data/media/0/Android/obb 
chmod 777 -R /mnt/*/*/*/*/Android/data
chmod 777 -R /mnt/*/*/*/*/Android/obb

Get Android ID for device registration

sudo python3 main.py google

Star this repository if you find this useful, if you encounter problem create a issue on github !

Error handling

• WayDroid no longer boots

sudo waydroid upgrade -o
sudo systemctl restart waydroid-container.service

This will make /var/lib/waydroid/waydroid_base.prop return to original state, so libndk/libhoudini will be invalid. You need to modify waydroid_base.prop again.

Or use sudo python3 main.py uninstall xxxxx to remove what is causing the issue.

• Magisk installed: N/A
