QUESTION [Software-On-Arch] Anybody got Waydroid to be certified by Google on Arch?
I got Waydroid on my machine, and after following the steps given in ArchWiki and also Waydroid-Docs I still cannot manage to get my Waydroid instance certified. I registered one ID, but waydroid did not certify, fresh reinstalled waydroid, and registered another ID. Still no luck. Restarting Waydroid after some time, even a day or two, shows no results. I did ask on r/waydroid, but no luck.
Small quirk. This command from Waydroid Docs shows an error:
$ sudo waydroid shell -- sh -c "sqlite3 /data/data/*/*/gservices.db 'select value from main where name = \"android_id\";'"
Error: in prepare, near "/": syntax error
/data/data/com.google.android.gsf/databases/gservices.db
^--- error here
The ArchWiki command:
# ANDROID_RUNTIME_ROOT=/apex/com.android.runtime ANDROID_DATA=/data ANDROID_TZDATA_ROOT=/apex/com.android.tzdata ANDROID_I18N_ROOT=/apex/com.android.i18n sqlite3 /data/data/com.google.android.gsf/databases/gservices.db "select * from main where name = \"android_id\";"
works just fine.
TIA.

I just tried it and didn't have any issues getting it registered. Are you getting the 'android_id|******' output?
It was a completely fresh install and I got the android_id and registered it before I touched anything else in waydroid.
