The beta feedback forum is for discussing VirtualBox beta software only: moving your topic to "Other Guests".

Android is not a supported guest. There is no track record that can tell us what should or shouldn't work or whether any problem is with VBox or Android-86 itself. I suggest you ask on an Android forum.
