Hello, your CTL J5 Chromebook appears to be compatible with Android support in Google’s upcoming list. Running developer mode on other Chromebooks seems to work without major issues, though some users report occasional crashes or glitches. It might help to check the specific version and settings if you notice problems.

I used to run it constantly so I could install Ubuntu and switch between them. There were no crashes or glitches except a blue line appearing during startup. Developer mode isn't the same as the channel; higher channels might have issues, but you can turn developer mode on for the release channel.

I previously used to test Android applications before official support was available. They performed poorly, but now with Google's backing, it functions smoothly.

I operate in Developer mode on my HP Chromebook 14 G3 and Canary on my HP Chromebook 14 G4. Sometimes you encounter graphics issues with rendering, particularly on the Canary channel, though most problems are manageable. Still, the Chromium OS page for Android app support was recently refreshed to list supported devices and channels, but the "J5 Convertible Chromebook" by CTL remains marked as "Planned." Are you certain your device can access Android apps via the Developer channel? I'm facing a similar issue with my HP Chromebook 14 G4—on Canary, even after forcing the Play Store, setup fails because ARC isn't available yet.
