    @walidham Any chance you still have the V20 port working? I just flashed it last night and got it to boot to the ubuntu touch loading screen but no further. I can get at it over SSH via rndis but I was wondering if there was a newer image or way I could build my own image?

    Long term I want to work on porting and run phosh or sxmo and a mainline kernel, but you seem to be one of only a couple people to ever successfully run linux on the V20 with working video.

    Also, if this patchset ever gets finished and includes msm8996 will that allow video to work in mainline (since it would add DSC support)? https://lwn.net/Articles/957064/

    @beta Hello, since LG has stopped the unlock service since Dec 31 2021, I had to unlock using UsU. The bootloader was unlocked successfully, and it booted into android. The UBports installer reported no error. The recovery installed and all good up to here. Then after the installing update screen, it showed the Demigod SOC crash.
    Somewhere in the very long UsU xda post, there is this:

    Optional (not needed when you flash an UsU compatible ROM later) Flash the baseband package now: <model>_UsU_baseband_flash-in-twrp.zip

    So the solution was to flash the baseband package in TWRP.

    LG unlock tool (the post I referred to):

    Baseband package:

    @metty fastboot flash boot halium-install.img for kernel, while for rootfs.img and system.img you need halium-install tool. It automatically install both of them in the /data partition
