Android 17 sucks. So I put Linux on a phone.

Unfortunately I need my electronic ID that only runs on Windows, Apple, iOS and the Google Android unless you can spoof it. Not even regular Linux or with Wine. And I use it near daily.

Boo Sweden.

Boo EU.

electronic ID that only runs on Windows, Apple, iOS and the Google Android

Would Android running in an LXC conatiner suffice? That’s what SailfishOS offers, and many users report their ID apps working that way, also Swedes.

unless you can spoof it.

Not sure what you mean.

I wonder how hard it’d be to flash android on a pi zero or similar to display only the ID forever. I’d never put something like that on my phone.

You could just install Waydroid. It’s recently become part of the Debian repos and supports armhf.

It should run fine with a fast microSD and nothing else running, considering the Pi Zero is a slow device.

Oh and the docs even say how to run Waydroid full screen and directly boot into it: https://docs.waydro.id/faq/setting-up-waydroid-only-sessions

For some projects, you might want to have Linux only for backend or maintenance related tasks, while using the Waydroid full-screen UI as the main interface.
