Interesting. I'd like to use this on my Raspberry Pi 400, but it's hard with no power/volume buttons. Especially when you have to use the GPIO pins for that. Hopefully someday there is an alternative.
Q: Raspberry Pi doesn’t have a power button. How to power off/reboot device? A: Following keyboard keys work as Android buttons: F1 = Home, F2 = Back, F3 = Multi-tasking, F4 = Menu, F5 = Power, F11 = Volume down, and F12 = Volume up. You can also use one of many third party reboot applications.
I realise it's still experimental, bit I'm still disappointed at the performance, especially when playing back video. In general, I think, the Pi hardware could do much, much better under any OS than it currently does. I read it's held back by missing hardware acceleration? Why hasn't that been fixed long ago?
The SoC on the pi4 isn't fully open source, so some drivers like the gpu driver are provided as blobs from broadcom. Creating a new driver is reverse engineering the broadcom ones which takes a long time...
Hi Luke, thanks for a great video mate. Might try that OS some point :) Can i ask something please? Do you know how to transfer an Android OS onto a USB stick? id then be able to boot from that instead of a card. What Id like to be able to do is transfer everything i have, settings, over to a M.2 slot instead and be able to boot from that. Might make a good video as well. All the best
Hey, thanks for the comment! Maybe you could follow a tutorial like this, www.pcmag.com/how-to/how-to-clone-a-hard-drive To clone your SD Card to your other drive? Is that what you’re trying to do?
@@Lukes-Tech hi there. Um, what i was trying to do is move everything across from my SD Card onto M.2. I have an external M.2 caddy that uses USB. So i could run the Android OS off the M.2 via the USB boot and have a faster system maybe? Perhaps cloning is the way to go, then run that partition wizard thing afterwards. Id want to keep all the settings ive created so far. Also tried to help with a "how to extend your partition" but you covered it at the end of your video :) Ive been using the PI to run Android money making apps. Not rich, but not bad. £15 a month will go straight into DCA Bitcoin. This is all new to me and have enjoyed the ride so far - - - mined crypto at 92hs lol (living the dream) / Installed windows os and ran programs for a while / Favourate OS is Ubuntu Mate and Andriod OS / Tried Nas storage server / Im now looking at creating my own crypto token hahaha!!! What id realy like to learn is a proper legit "flash loan" code, and scan exchanges. Btw dont get conned theres scam videos about flash loans, with part of the code: *import "ipfs://blah* leads funds to a scammers wallet. I love these Pi's, awesome journey. All the best
@@DiyEcoProjects Oh yeah, you should be able to boot of your M.2 drive if it’s connecting to the pi through USB. Yeah, you could try out cloning. Ooh £15 a month isn’t too bad actually! Which appears you using? The pi is great for so many different projects, keep on exploring them! 😄
I can't get my pi to boot lineage 19.0 I don't know why it doesn't boot I have the same problem for raspberry pi 64 bit bullseye also. Please suggest something
You should use Chrome (or any chromium fork) for web browsing, the ui is better adapted to large screens
Hi Luke!
Thanks for the detailed explanation! Kudos to the good work! Loooooooovvvveee your channel mate! 👑💯💎
Hey thanks!
Very Helpful! & Thanks for Sharing Your Knowledge!!!
Glad I was helpful!
Overclock it to 2147 and gpu 750 it will run with little to no lag
Okay, vpu would make android finally reasonable on rpi4.
Tysm! ❤
Smooth install and I'm up and running. Small keyboard character problem; have to use the FN key to got some of the correct characters.
using VGA to HDMI on raspberry pi will surfer you if you are installing android OS

Power isn't needed, volume con be controlled from the notification bar with a third party pp
@@fred-youtube Oh yeah

Followed it and it works. thank you
Glad it worked!
Hi Luke, in settings --> accounts --> google. can you add google accounts? thanks for sharing great content!
No sound for this when i did it
Great tutorial. I installed this on my Pi 400 and it works, but some of the keyboard keys are mapped incorrectly for some reason.
Thanks! Huh strange, I don't really know anything other than to make sure that your keyboard language is the same as your Pi400's keyboard.
@@Lukes-Tech I figured it out. I had the num lock key on so Fn was toggled on. Whoops!
Have you ever tested any emulators on this build? How do they run? Is there lag on the controls?
I have not tested any, sorry.
When I go to restart and choose recovery it never comes back on. I am booting up from SD card. What am I doing wrong?
still can't play videos wtih netflix and amazon prime so its not a good experience if you can't use those.

I agree, I guess it’s a lack of proper development for it? I’m not completely sure though..

I am getting more than 60 degree in normal usage.

Hmm, are you booting from SD or USB?
@@Lukes-Tech I tried both but still no booting, I saw config.txt also if everything is right
@@RPI_Arduinotronics Did you Figure out the booting issue? I'm getting a bootloop on startup. Never load android. Using Sd card
@@D.Ghost92 I still did not figure out the solution, I have the same issue for fydeos and Kodi also but Kodi sometimes boots
where did you get the 'linage-19.1-rpi-resize.zip' ?
It’s on the same website as the lineage OS image. Just scroll down and you’ll find it. 👍👍
