@hsce1 You can also go Settings >> Update >> Update Settings >> Reinstall All Apps. This won't reinstall all apps though so you might need to reinstall some from OpenStore.

hsce1

@kugiigi Oh, ok. Thank you!

@hsce1 Sorry about that. In my case the openstore launched.

hsce1

No problem. That was quickly fixed and no data was lost due to the switch

I am hitting similar bug to https://github.com/ubports/ubports-installer/issues/1052 and thus I'd like to do a manual install but I am unable to find the instructions. Installing from linux box so I have all the unix tools at hand and I can read code too.

wvi

Basically is there a list of the commands that the UB installer is running, TBH I don't want to spend time figuring it out from the async javascript code in the electron app.

c4pp4

@wvi The issue 1052 is about "No space left on device" and your issue 1343 is about "write failed: Read-only file system".

wvi

@c4pp4 Yes, I realized that later but what I am asking for now is if there is a way how to avoid using this graphical installer so I have clear logs and can find what is the issue and possibly find the solution.

@wvi there are some steps done with fastboot, but you won't be able to install the system image itself manually that way. You might have to build ubuntu-device-flash yourself to do without the UBports installer.

EDIT: Sources are here: https://github.com/ubports/goget-ubuntu-touch

This is my first attempt so sorry for dumb questions. Is there a way how to see the UB-installer logs without filing bug?

wvi

@fredldotme Thanks I'll try to do with the installer as it is more than just doing stuff with abd shell and copyting files around.

c4pp4

@wvi Have you made all pre-install steps from the first post?

wvi

@c4pp4 Yes, I did wipe the partitions as well.

c4pp4

@wvi OK just for sure, when your device is booting, do you see the message "Your device has been unlocked"?
You can try booting Ubuntu 20.04 live from flash drive and using snap ubports-installer to exclude some kind of your system environment problem.

wvi

@c4pp4 Yes my device can't be trusted anymore Good idea I will try the Ubuntu 20 approach.

wvi

Maybe I made some progress because now my install fails on

mount -a mount:mounting /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/system on /system failed: Invalid argument

Update:
After downloading Ubuntu 20.4 and running installer from the liveCD I got the same result.

@wvi looks like wiping the system partition using TWRP wasn't successful. What happens when you do it manually using mk2fs or mkfs.ext4?

Hello, I'm new to this forum. Should all issues installing UBports on Xperia X go into this thread, or should I open a separate one?

fredldotme

@bennypr0fane issues can be filed as bug reports on GitHub if they are severe. I'd really like this thread to be a place about the development of the suzu port as well as small issue reports.

@c4pp4 it is not solved, at today there is the same problem!
