          @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

                    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.

                                              @Danct12 all LOS 14.1 roms I found works. ( ROMs before official LOS) I have twrp 3.3.1, I formatted data as ext4. I have 3GB version of redmi 4x, my LCD display was changed once. My logs seems ok, but I am unable to get even telnet working. Other my halium 14.1 devices are working fine using this method (hammerhead and kenzo). I am not sure what else to do.
