It’s a 5th Gen Intel CPU. So you have to stick to v19.

As shown on the download page, FydeOS v22 only supports 6th-gen Intel devices and newer.

For devices with a 5th-gen Intel CPU, it is expected that the Android subsystem cannot be enabled. In this case, the only available option is to use the v19 Intel Legacy version.

Sure, how about the Mac mini 2018 computer, it has an Intel i7 core processor, but I couldn’t install Android in it either :face_with_spiral_eyes::thinking:

For devices with 6th generation or newer Intel Core processors, the Intel Modern version can generally enable the Android subsystem successfully. If you run into issues, please provide the full device specifications for further analysis.

Support for Mac devices in FydeOS is limited, and in most cases the network adapter is not supported.

GApps can not be configured.
