Android Emulator?

Sun May 17, 2020 9:04 pm

Greetings,

I was interested in an AndriodOS emulator that I can run on top of Raspbian 10 (buster). Does such a thing exist?
My google-foo keeps, doesn't seem to be working. I keep finding articals that explain how to run AndriodO/S directly on the hardware. I'd like to run it within an emulator or compile it directly as a Leenux app.



Hardware: Raspberry PI 4
OS: Raspbian 10

QEMU is the only virtual machine available from the Raspbian Buster repositories...

...you ""may"" be able to install the developer supported Android-x86 in QEMU but it will be barely usable.


As above noted just run Lineage OS (Android) on a fresh SD Card. Though be aware there is no Official Support from Google.
