    Hi Vickram,

    There will not be any OOB andriod apk package files available for you to download via the Device or from Commerce parameter form.


    You can refer to the articles below on how to build your own Android package:

    to use the mpos on android you have to first make the hybrid app.

    follow the below steps

    Pre-requisites

    ï‚· Recommended: a physical Windows computer (not a VM) running Windows 8 or later

     You can use a computer with Windows 7 or earlier, in which case you’ll use the Xamarin Player

    for Android as the emulator

    Steps--

    Open Control Panel > Programs and Features, choose the Visual Studio 2015 item, and click Change.

    When the installer opens, click Modify

    1. Cross-Platform Mobile Development > C#/.NET (Xamarin). This will also automatically

    select various Android tools under Common Tools and Software Development Kits. This

    option should also update any existing Xamarin installation. Select all Common Tools

    and Software Development Kits

    Click the Install button and let the process run. Again, this will take some time to

    complete

    2. Once installation is complete, launch Visual Studio and sign in with your Microsoft account if

    prompted (this is the same account you use with Windows). Then check for Xamarin updates

    through Tools > Options > Xamarin or Tools > Options > Xamarin > Other, where you’ll find a

    Check Now link:

    If you do not see an option for Xamarin in Tools > Options, double-check your installation, or try

    restarting Visual Studio. You can also search for Xamarin in the Options dialog. Download and

    install latest version.

    3. From the Build Take Retail SDK folder and Open SampleExtensions\HybridApp\Android\ solution

    and build/deploy on emulator and verify.

    4. On Emulator, please enter Retail Server URL and save.

    5. You should be able to login and activate the device.

    It is hard to help because it is not clear what exactly problem you are experiencing given all the details provided in previous answers. If you tried those steps and something doesn't work as expected please provide very specific details of your actions, expected behavior and issues you got.

    You can just use a browser and run CPOS instead of going through the terrible of building the hybrid App. Because the hybrid app is like a shell App. You will need to to put the CPOS link inside the app.

    One possible reason for this issue is that there may be a problem with your environment settings or permissions. Make sure that you have the correct permissions to download the package file and that your environment is properly configured for use with Android devices. It's also worth checking that your Android phone meets the minimum system requirements for running the Modern POS apk.

    If those suggestions don't help, you might want to reach out to the Dynamics 365 support team for further assistance. They can help you troubleshoot the issue and identify any underlying problems that might be preventing you from downloading the package file.

    In the meantime, if you're looking for a workaround, you might consider using a different device type that allows you to download the package file. Alternatively, you could try using a different method to install the Modern POS apk on your Android phone, such as downloading it from a third-party source (although be careful with this, as it can potentially introduce security risks).
