@michi2302 Is your phone in recovery mode?
Check adb devices

[michi2302]

yes, fastboot devices is ok, but adb devices doesnot show any device when phone is in fastboot mode

usb debugging is on
phone is unlocked

[arubislander]

@michi2302 said in [Porting] Call for Testers:

yes, fastboot devices is ok, but adb devices doesnot show any device when phone is in fastboot mode

adb devices never shows any devices when the phone is in fastboot mode. Unless you meant to say recovery mode, the behavior described is expected.

[michi2302]

@arubislander

yes thats it - my phone was allways in fastboot-mode - new in recovery-mode all was fine

- THX

[michi2302]

so next problem, after successful installation - my phone is in the 1+ logo powered by android ??
I had originally installed a custom rom with trwp - maybe that's the problem ?

[arubislander]

@michi2302 I am not sure there already is a custom boot logo for the Oneplus 5/5T.

As long as your phone boots into Ubuntu Touch, then all is well.

[michi2302]

@arubislander thx for reply

right - the bootlogo is probably from android 11 - other question to run "./halium-install-standalone.sh -p ut -s ubuntu-touch-android9-arm64.tar.gz system.img"
I have the recovery.img from "http://twoot.bin.org.in/nextcloud/index.php/s/2Zk2Lz8cZCdqArT"
installed is that correct ? - because without recovery adb will not run.

thx

[michi2302]

@arubislander no phone does´t boots in Touch hangs on android boot logo

[arubislander]

@michi2302

I will have to gracefully bow out now, as I do not have a OP 5/T.
But just to get this clear for anyone dropping by to help you. You are in fact saying the installation failed because your phone does not boot to Ubuntu Touch. Correct?

[michi2302]

@arubislander
yes, right - no problems during installprocess. but phone does not boot to ubuntu touch.

[Ianus]

@michi2302
You can fastboot into TWRP and use adb shell to connect to your phone and examine the image files.
They are in /data/.
android-rootfs.img (size 487022592)
rootfs.img (size 3221225472)
Sizes from my working OnePlus 5.

You can also check if you have flashed halium-boot.img and vendor.img.
fastboot flash boot halium-boot.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img

[michi2302]

@ianus can I also use Helium-recovery instead of twrp ?

thx for reply

[Shadowbird2468]

This post is deleted!

[Ianus]

@michi2302
I don't know. But
fastboot boot twrp-xy.img
will not overwrite your boot or recovery partition on the phone. The phone will boot directly from the image file.

[flohack]

@michi2302 No, sorry, the Halium recovery does currently not mount all the partitions correctly, and it wont give a warning, so if you try to push files with adb they are just pushed into tmpfs mounts. You can use it if you manually mount data in recovery. But for the moment I recommend TWRP, our recovery will only be needed when we have OTA updates in place

[michi2302]

@ianus thx for reply
my /data is empty ?

michi@Core5M:~/Downloads$ adb shell
root@OnePlus5:/ # ls /data
root@OnePlus5:/ #

regards

[michi2302]

@ianus
now I have tested ./halium-install-standalone.sh -p ut -s ubuntu-touch-android9-arm64.tar.gz system.img

and after success I had:

adb shell

root@OnePlus5:/ # cd data
root@OnePlus5:/data # ls
android-rootfs.img rootfs.img

and then I reboot phone

check again and /data is emty ??
