        I have a Meizu 5 Pro.
        I installed 16.04 via restore with team win recovery project, because the update via ubports doesnt work. I wiped everything.
        16.04 runs.
        Now I have in updates an update called "ubuntu touch version 2".
        When I install this: button "install" then button "reboot and install", the phone reboot into twrp. Is this ok?
        Then I don't know, what I have I do. So I choose restart and system. Nothing changed. Everything like before.
        How can I solve this? What is the right way to install this update without run into twrp?

          @tw You need to flash Ubuntu recovery before you hit the ''install '' ( with fastboot on your PC )
          But, it might fail due the update image size. Give it a try, though.( have you increased the .cache partition size on your Pro 5?)

            No, i didn't increase the .cache partition. But may be I deleted everything before I restored your stable backup. (Meizu Pro 5 16.04 STABLE BACKUP for restoring with TWRP). Where I get this ubuntu recovery?
