Trying to Re-install

mooncosmique · 18 Nov 2019, 04:16

Trying to reflash UT. Got as far as "Flashing Firmware - Flashing partitions using fastboot" The device (Nexus 4) shows the open droid and says "downloading... but it seems to have hung up at this point. There is a "Start" button at the top of the nexus screen - do I need to press start? How long does flashing take? Can I safely get out of this mode?

Thanks

Hi,
I also had a problem to install UT on a Nexus 4.
The best for you :

Reboot the phone by holding simultaneously the Power button and Volume down button.
You should have the Android boot screen with the indication START at the top.
Hold the Volume (down or up) button to find the Recovery mode. When you find it, hold the Power button.
On the computer use the UBports installer, connect the phone to usb port then follow the indications given by the installer.

I wasn't in developer mode. I had thought I had enabled it earlier but was obviously mistaken

Thanks for your help
