Root Access for GApps on Raspberry Pi4

artisticland

Hello, i am new to Emteria and Android development.
All we need to install an app from Play store named: Guarding Vision.

I have installed emteria for Raspberry Pi4. Installed GApps as well. However it does not has root access and whenever I go in settings to enable Root Access-- it gives an error-- This device has to be rooted.

Now I have searched everywhere on google and have not found the solution how to enable root access so I can make Gapps working.

Please help.

Thank you.

@artisticland Does the app itself rely on google play or are you trying to get the play store just to install the app? If the later, the best way would be to contact the developers of the app, if they can provide an apk and to install it manually.

Root device? Has anyone got an answer to this/ Emteria support?

@peterjbdk You can enable adb and use adb root, or type su in the device shell. If calling from an app use SuShell; see https://emteria.com/kb/root-access-sushell

@smieschek, I think it is sushell, not su you need to type in the CLI (ADB or UART). Regarding GApps, we do not provide any support for GMS on RPi devices.
