@ddabrahim While I can understand the reasoning the problem with cheap devices is that we have 90% no way of re-compiling the parts we need to make the hardware work. We need a few basic bits to be available in source code, and then the whole vendor tree as closed source. If you find a cheap Chinese phone with a good LineageOS port (official) then we might try. Everything what is unofficially ported to LineageOS may break or cost us hundreds of hours. This is not really efficient. There is a reason why they are cheap. They are not meant to be modded. BR

@domubpkm It is affected when someone configures to use this encryption, but I do not think that Purism guys will do that, they are very caretaking

Since I dont know what has been moderated by us, I cannot answer you this question truly. See Dalton´s comment before. BR

@drennanelawar Luckily this one was a spare. Unfortunatly after updating to 16.04 back to square one. Also now have OnePlus One but mainly for the battery life. Edit 24/07 Have the nexus running again on 16.04 so far all ok after 14 hours and three restarts. On/Off button is now really sensitive after all the bashing. Also had to turn of all vibrations as that seemed to keep bringing up restart, switch off etc dialog box. Now also think the low battery charge was not helping (15% approx.) when I got it going, with the boot loop. Have had no issues since charge got above 30-40% with startup.

wow I am back again. I decided to go in and disconnect the batteries ( fully charged),check them and try the flash_tool. It took old Ubuntu Touch no hesitation,but nearly 12 minutes to flash it, nerve wracking. It rebooted like nothing ever happened. Now to get it back like it was

@lakotaubp OK, no problem...

Last day to reach the third and last goal

@earlybird Try a different usb port and or cable. Start the installer first then connect your nexus 5 and see if that helps get 15.04 on your device. Theres also the welcome and install group https://t.me/WelcomePlus If the above does not work. We should be able to get 15.04 on your nexus before 16.04 stable comes out soon.

@marathon2422 now just need to get out of it : ) Also can't unlock oem remotely either just tried. Fastboot detects it but no unlock allowed edit All sorted previous owner wiped the phone without logging out of google first. That locked the phone. Had to login with their details first. Google help desk said that couldnt happen once he hd removed the phone from his account and signed out and phone rewiped by me, and yet it can

@domubpkm Yes, in the bad news, there is a very small part of good news...

@lakotaubp Thank you for your reply. I was able to reinstall OpenStore easily using the instructions from https://open-store.io/about and I was hoping to avoid the reflash so I will try your toggle suggestion and switch to the dev channel and reflash as a last resort. Cheers.
