@jc Does it work with all those annoying apps that refuse to run on rooted/unlocked devices?

@eri Maybe. My banking apps work and IIRC they are sensitive to running on rooted phones, but YMMV. Do you have an example of one I can test?

@jc

Is there a way to run Waydroid with XFCE? (or without Wayland in general)

@newsorpigal You can use a nested Wayland compositor on X such as Weston! In Arch for example you would just do sudo pacman -S weston && weston

Thanks! Is there a guide on how to run Waydroid within Weston?

@jc Windows and Chromebooks use similar solution, no DE on Linux do the same.
