        Hi
        Am still trying to install ubports on my bq aquaris with no success
        I installed snapd and tried snp but got nowhere
        I am definitely in the correct directory here and get the following
        patricia@patricia-R59P-R60P-R61P:~$ sudo dpkg -i ubports-installer_0.1.21-beta_amd64.deb
        dpkg: error processing archive ubports-installer_0.1.21-beta_amd64.deb (--install):
        package architecture (amd64) does not match system (i386)
        Errors were encountered while processing:
        ubports-installer_0.1.21-beta_amd64.deb
        patricia@patricia-R59P-R60P-R61P:~$

        Any further comments?
        Many thanks

          Hi @wdnp2,

          The issues you are having is because you are trying to install a 64bit deb package on a 32 bit system.

          I am not aware if there are any 32 bit packages floating around somewhere you could try ...

            I couldn't find any 32bit packages. But maybe you could follow the instructions of how to run from source that are described here?

            Or you could try getting access to a 64bit system and trying the regular installer (snap or deb) on there.

              @wdnp2 If your hardware is 64 bits compatible, you can use a bootable Ubuntu USB stick: https://tutorials.ubuntu.com/tutorial/tutorial-create-a-usb-stick-on-ubuntu#0

                Hi there, I'm trying to install on my Nexus 5. Both from Windows using Ubports-installer and trying to use Ubports-installer on my Rasbperry-Pi with Ubuntu Mate does not work.
                Trying from my Windows computer and the Ubports-installer, fastboot and adb works from command line, bot Ubports-installer does not recognize the phone.

                Trying to install Ubports-installer under Ubuntu Mate, an error message occurs that I'm using the wrong system architecture (armf vw amd64).

                Can anyone help me installing Ubuntu Touch in my Nexus 5 using my Windows computer or mx Raspberry Pi with Ubuntu Mate.

                Soe time ago I could use ubuntu-device-flash on my Raspberry PI, but this also seems not to work anymore.

                Thanks a lot.

                    @arubislander Yes it was a 32 bit machine Sorry about that
                    I get the following on my 64bit machine
                    william@LaptopL750:~$ sudo apt install ubports-installer_01.21-beta_amd64.deb

                      @wdnp2 you need to download ubports-installer_01.21-beta_amd64.deb from here https://github.com/ubports/ubports-installer/releases/tag/0.1.21-beta, and then run sudo dpkg -i ubports-installer_01.21-beta_amd64.deb to install it

                        @advocatux Many thanks for your advice. I have now managed to install
                        on the Aquaris. I overlooked the fact that it requires a 64bit OS and I needed
                        to make sure I was in the correct directory.Once the installer was on my laptop
                        it worked almost automatically.The device was in developer mode and fastboot
                        Best Wishes

                            @advocatux Have been getting familiar with the Aquaris but find the connection to my yahoomail app is a problem. When it does connect I am now able to see the calendar which was not possible with ubuntu. This is very intermittent and on some occasions I am unable to access my mail at all. Further tests suggest that any app which needs internet connection does not open eg google apps. My wifi looks connected and I use this on other machines frequently without any problems. If this is a hardware malfunction I may as well scrap the machine . Update appear to function in the settings app but I cannot confirm that anything has happened. Do you have any ideas on how to resolve the problem?

                              @wdnp2 For your information -- The Aquaris M10 HD is now working well using a EE Osprey 2 mini router on Ubuntu touch OS. It is looking very good.

                              I have tried again, at a different location from the EE router, using a Sky router type SR 101. The wifi continues to fail to connect! So far I have been unable to resolve this.
