Did anyone manage to install a Linux OS with proper desktop inside your Android phone?

I tried a lot of open source tools written for this with Termux but when I tried to use it via vnc, I got a black screen and there was a black plus or dot iirc.

That happened because you started X but didn't start a display manager, window manager or desktop environment.

By default it launches with xfce.

The best tutorial for using it is: https://ivonblog.com/en-us/posts/termux-x11/ please ignore the pervy anime.
