Had a lot of trouble with 32 bit Remix.  Would not load play store.  Will try 64 bit.

Not at all a specialist, but tried to install Waydroid on LL, Linux Mint and Zorin OS (all forks from Ubuntu) and failed. There's probably something I miss or fail to understand, but so far no luck, and just right now I have not enough time to give it another go.

Waydroid only works in Wayland, and none of the OSes mentioned (or rather the DE they use) support Wayland right now. You have to use either Gnome or KDE.

I knew I had missed something. Thank you for the info.

I found Remix OS and had trouble with it loading, but that was with the 64 bit version.  The 32 but one seems to work so far.  Running in Windows so just repluing to my original thred when I was looking for something to run on LL.

Can I install and android player/emulator in LL?  I have Bluestacks 4 in a separate partition on my Windows 7 machine, but it does not see the onboard bluetooth so it cannot do everything I want.  I tried installing BlissOS in Windows, but it does not like my hardware.
