Pine64
-
I see android mobile but found no results when searching for Pine phone (Linux)
I get this is not open source so not necessarily a match but is there any consideration
for a build that will work on it?Or did I miss it?
TY!

Arm32 and Arm64 APK versions can be downloaded here:
If you do not have access to the google play store.

@r0b Ooops... My fault. I forget that the Pine devices are Linux, not Android.
All the Linux downloads are on the regularpage... Usually autodetects the type of Linux needed. Not sure what is on Pine devices.

@greybeard Unfortunately that way you'll be getting a desktop-oriented browser on a mobile device, which won't be as practical as having a mobile-oriented app, like Vivaldi for Android. But Pinephones are a Niche with a big N, so there's no real option here.

Librem 5 user here. I was also surprised that the only way to get the mobile version of Vivaldi is to go through the Apple or Google store.
Does anyone have any information to share in this regard? Any way to make it work on a Linux based system?
Edit: seems like you need to install Waydroid (or Anbox) for now to then install the Android version. Will have to try that and see how well that works.
