Will this work with Android 11?

This is so exciting, I got it to work. It works flawlessly for some games like Lego and Mekorama. So thank you for your hard work.

I have a question about screen resolution (and IPD) though, because i did run into a problem. For most apps, like the Daydream app itself, my phone adopts the wrong screen resolution. Does anyone know if it's possible to edit the dimensions?

My Redmi 5 Plus has an 18:9 aspect ratio, the same as the Pixel XL 2, yet doesn't have the same resolution as the Pixel XL 2, so when I apply that Magisk module and I launch a game it either gives me a black screen with error message (something like: "the app has stopped) or the app crashes. i am running Android 9 with a Pixel Experience rom.

I have gone through all the different modules that you have made. is there a file I can edit to enable 1) a 2160 x 1080 resolution, but with a 18:9 aspect ratio instead?

When I use the Pixel XL 2 driver, it does let me boot up, yet then when I launch the game I get the message "this app will now stop" or something like that.

As I said earlier I can run the games on 2160 x 1080 without crashing, e.g. here is the Lego game loading with the correct screen resolution and IPD:

but then also on 2160 x 1080 is the Daydream app, where the IPD is not aligned and it's got the wrong resolution:

If anyone has managed to get this work, or knows how I can tweak it, please let me know, I'd appreciate it.

Hey all! I am happy I stumbled upon on this thread. I was looking for some way to run daydream on my old OnePlus 3. Did anyone try it on their OP3 and it worked?

Thank you! Got this up and running on my pixel 3a xl today and it works perfectly. I certainly had my struggles throughout the process but this tip helped:

So I was able to make the module work with relatively simple fixes on my Pixel 3a XL. It might be due to how close Pixel 3a XL is to Pixel 3, but I took the A10 beta file posted from the first page and mostly just deleted extraneous .xml files.

The only two xml files I used were "android.hardware.vr.high_performance.xml" and "android.software.vr.mode.xml" though I'm not even certain that "android.software.vr.mode.xml" is needed.

I have the app working on the Pixel 6 but the only version of the Daydream app that the aspect ratio seems correct to me is 1.13.180130063, the last ones are always too zoomed out and sideways.

Will this work for Android v 13?
I tried to install the unblocker and it didn't let me
