      I had Meizu Pro 5 Ubuntu Edition but run into the https://forums.ubports.com/assets/uploads/files/1528013524195-8a15d567-ca4b-44ca-a1ce-84fdb7e0aec7-image.png screen when first trying to update it to Ubports 16.04/stable channel. Somehow now later I managed to flash - with ubuntu-device-flash - from within 16.04 ubuntu installation (actually, 16.04 lxd container with usb vendor specific passthrough). I did that by booting to Ubuntu's recovery installation with power button + volume up - this is where you might need the recovery-turbo.img but I had it flashed already. I verified that from within my lxc container (where I had added lxc config device add CONTAINERNAME meizu usb vendorid=18d1) I was able to see the device with 'adb devices'. Then I ran ubuntu-device-flash --server=http://system-image.ubports.com touch --device=turbo --channel=ubports-touch/15.04/stable - I thought it got stuck after downloads, but actually then it started the "Pushing" phase. And even more to my surprise, it rebooted to flashing phase with Ubuntu prorgress bar going back and forth, and then booted into working Ubports installation! Even though I specified "15.04/stable", it seems it too pointed to 16.04 already, ie OTA-5. The greatest thing was that since I didn't need to specify --bootstrap or --wipe, it was even the same installation I used as my main phone back in the days, so I had all my apps and photos intact.

      Have moved this topic and now think it is really only good as a reference point so will lock it. The group can now be used as any other on the Forum.

      Alarm clock now seems to work (3 days in a row). Looks like existing alarms were ignored after an ota-update. This should not happen, it makes the device unreliable for daily use. The indicator on the lock screen still does not show the alarm, maybe because it is a repeating alarm. I think that should be fixed too. I will change the bug report in this way, thanks for testing to find the problem.

      More and more large private class action lawsuit, national investigations and claims are aimed towards the Big Five internet. Recently The Privacy Collective has started a lawsuit and generating a lot of exposure. I would be interested to know if our community wants to be in the front line in this regard and if so, what could we contribute to have these kind of events work to Ubuntu Touch benefit? Anyway, if you do support the collective goal you're a click away from making a difference by submitting your vote at https://theprivacycollective.eu/en/

      I ended up installing ubuntu touch stable today to my nexus 5 (hammerhead) with https://github.com/MariusQuabeck/magic-device-tool and I got ubuntu 15.04 (r13) (20170127-093441 / 20160603- ) and if I start the browser in phone it crashes at once. That is pretty bad. I have noticed that the there is OTA-15 out, but I guess that the magic-device-tool did not give me that version. Or did it, how I can check it ? And does anyone know if magic-device-tool images will be updated in near future ?

      @s3r0 yes. By flashing the entire fairphone OS, so you don't have to worry about which part of the firmware goes where.

      Let's cut the Ubuntu rope getting a complete different name. We are not a subdivision of Canonical! How about Ubantu? Thinking about something with pirates because it's bad ass just like I feel when using Ubuntu Touch. Unfortunately Black Flag is already taken. Pirate OS is too obvious, kinda childish. Good name for a raspberri pi operated mobile. How about Keelhaul? Or Mutiny which is also a geeky reference to the TV Show "Halt and Catch Fire"? Think that was also considered for Yunit afaik. Peg Leg MOS (MOS == mobile operating system), three "words" with 3 letters - sounds catchy.

      Please refer to https://forums.ubports.com/post/57619 I just noticed an update in Open Store. The same update shows in System Settings -> Updates. I updated the app via System Settings and it updated fine and shows in the System Settings history. [image: 1639484439629-screenshot20211214_100300079.resized.png]
