Several users have reported success with offloading package-building to more powerful hosts:
t184256: Simple remote building (using existing NixOS, binary qemu-aarch64)
bbigras: Use a remote builder with qemu (using existing NixOS, building your own qemu-aarch64)
573: Same machine remote builder how-to (includes spinning up a VM with nixos-shell, DEPRECATED, see Same machine remote builder how-to discussion page)
If you are rebuilding your whole nix-on-droid system remotely you might get broken uid/gid. This happens because of impurity in this derivation which when built remotely will get different ids. To fix this you can specify uid/gid explicitly.
