Sideloading custom APKs

If you want to use custom APKs in your build, place them into the local directory in the root of the NanoDroid tree.

The name of your APK must match the targetname in the NanoDroid package, e.g. GmsCore for a custom microG build or Phonesky for a custom Play Store build.

See the file_database in build-package.database.

Note: sideloading libraries is currently not supported!

"Secret" parameters
