Xiaomi Redmi 4X (santoni)

aceclan

The switch is based on boot image flash (restore from TWRB th boot) and the Ubuntu is just two .img files : rootfs.img and system.img which will be mounted, during the boot. So the partitions won't be touched...
The locations of img files (browse from TWRP) is on /data/ , while the location of Internal storage that You see in MIUI is /data/sdcard or /data/media/0 .

Work like a charm...

Can anyone please add zip installation or Nandroid backup of ubuntu touch latest for santoni and maintain it (upload latest whenever ubt updates) for people out there who don't have PC and therefore can't install it. Including me.

Or any way of installing it without PC ?

Second this. At least one that's updated once in a while. Thanks in advance

Okay I tried both halium-install method and generating standalone zip based on @suoko instructions. Nothing works.

On the halium method, I'm stuck with
chroot: failed to run command ‘passwd’: No such file or directory
Failed, please try again

and installing qemu-user-binfmt did not help.

For standalone install, I followed @suoko 's instructions and made a zip file, which installed successfully, but it won't boot (stuck on Mi logo). I think system partition was not patched, because in one instance, TWRP reported "No OS installed, reboot anyway?"

Can someone suggest next steps?

Hi @Danct12 ,

Can You please write a few words about "fixes" or "new features" on new compiled images?

Best regards

Since 2020/10/28, Redmi 4X has been added to UBports installer.

Please download the latest version of UBports installer and install it. You'll need to check "Wipe userdata" in the installer if you're from Android OS.

Really nice addition! I gave it a try today, but the system would not boot with the latest release. Next I tried with the rc, and it works! I have UBPorts not on my 4X,

Danct12

@joaofl Yep, there was some bug that only occurs on "stable" channel, devel and rc works fine.
