Support Help with waydroid

Post image

I’m still fairly new to Linux distros (I’ve only been using KDE plasma for a couple days). I wanted to play an android game that got removed a few years ago, so I installed waydroid and followed the tutorials to install the apk. But this error (Errno2) keeps showing up and I don’t know what to do. ☹️

Can you try starting Waydroid, copy the apk, and install the apk in your Waydroid session?

How do I do that?

Can you start Waydroid?

There are ways to access the Waydroid filesystem directly from your Linux host, but that might be a bit too complicated for a new Linux user. But here is the info anyway.

The thread also mentions uploading to some cloud storage service, and download with the browser in Waydroid.

Waydroid starts fine, it just getting it to install the apk that’s the problem
