Waydroid camera and bluetooth support

PP Pirate Praveen Public Seen by 9

Waydroid can run Android apps, but it seems to be missing camera and bluetooth support.

Update: Move gps support to its own thread https://codema.in/d/phU1JlaV/pick-and-fund-a-maps-app

Lack of bluetooth in Waydroid also comes up ever so often (as lots of gadgets require a proprietary app to work)

For gps/maps/navigation, https://codema.in/d/phU1JlaV/pick-and-fund-a-maps-app is in progress and one of the options there is GPS pass through. Some people already got it working as shared in https://github.com/waydroid/waydroid/issues/226 and images available in https://mavvert.home.xs4all.nl/waydroid/ (though only x86_64 only at the moment).

on the FLX1, there's working camera in the android apps (via waydroid), e.g. in signal. Instead, sound works most of the time not.

@Marius does bluetooth work as well? For example, try sharing a photo via bluetooth, detect bluetooth headphones etc
