        @aceclan Your home directory should stay intact, I flashed my nexus 5 on legacy build with halium 7.1 build and everything worked fine.

          I tried to log in to google account to sync my contacts. But at the log in page, keyboard is not popping up( not showing) . And one more thing, my language BURMESE letters are not showing in sms. Showing only square characters. I tried to install fonts and it is saying read only file system. Any IDEA?

              @4htet Keyboard not popping up at Google page is probably a UBports error, the same issue is on Oneplus 3.

              And read-only file system, you can try sudo mount -o rw,remount / to remount the rootfs as root.

              But your language issue is weird, it could be a UBports issue unless someone tested it on official supported device.

                  Same for me, format data as ext4 does not help. I am unable get any logs, dmesg -w on PC does not show anything, /sys/fs/pstore/console-ramoops file does not exist. I am unable to boot your recovery, sudo fastboot boot recovery.img show only mi logo. I tried to downgrade firmware, compile system by my own, many recovery images. But I am unable to boot this (and recovery from that post too). Some people on XDA have similar problem. I was using lastest MIUI 11.2 before.

                    @Danct12 maybe we should update blobs, I am not sure what else to do.

                      @danqo6 Perhaps you could try to flash a LOS 14.1 rom first and see if LOS loads.

                        @danqo6 , from the fastboot mode, check first:
                        $ fastboot devices
                        330915847d15 fastboot

                        then download and use: Latest TWRP

                        $ fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-0-santoni.img
                        Sending 'boot.img' (24844 KB) OKAY [ 0.783s]

                        Finished. Total time: 1.615s

                        After Backup ALL and copy TWRP folder to Your PC,
                        full format: Wipe/Format Data is needed to remove encryption

                        After flash system.img and rootfs.tar.gz don't forget to boot again to fastboot and flash hallium-boot.img:
                        fastboot flash boot halium-boot.img

                                @bisaalz Please try to flash LineageOS 14.1 (just that, don't install Ubuntu), and reboot.

                                If LineageOS 14 boots, can you try to install Ubuntu again? Perhaps this is needed first, I have not updated my device firmware for months now.

                                              I followed your steps but I cannot get it working (as contrary to LOS 16).
