        Just recently purchased a Nexus 7 specifically for Ubuntu Touch. Here are the details shown on fastboot

        FASTBOOT MODE
        PRODUCT NAME - flo
        VARIANT - flo 32G
        HW VERSION - rev_e
        BOOTLOADER VERSION - FLO-04.08
        CARRIER INFO - None
        SERIAL NUMBER - 000xxxxx
        SIGNING - Yes
        SECURE BOOT - enabled
        LOCK STATE - unlocked

        Has anyone else successfully installed Ubuntu Touch on this specific device (with HW VERSION rev_e)?

        UBPorts Installer (ubports-installer.0.1.21-beta.exe) never recognizes the device and manually selecting Nexus 7 (wifi) the installer does not proceed past the "Please reboot to bootloader".

        ubports/ubports-installer.log says:

        {"level":"debug","message":"Welcome to the party","timestamp":"2019-03-08T20:34:31.546Z"}

        Since the installer does not work on either Windows or Linux (I have tried both), where are the ROM zips to manually install?

        It is not a good idea to only have the installer option.

          @genifycom Ubuntu Touch is not a rom. You only need the installer but the Nexus 7 can be a bit awkward. With Windows are you using https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979 I installed with Windows and version 0.1.20 if the installer and it took 10-12 attempts. Try different usb cables, you can put the device into bootloader manually. Mine stuck after installing the UBports recovery and the cache had to be cleared before it completed.
          On another note why start another thread on the same subject it only confuses the issue.

            @genifycom can you adb? Independently of the recovery?
