          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

                  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.

                    @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

                        adb shell

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

                        and then I reboot phone

                            You need the phone to be in TWRP to run halium-install-standalone.sh.
                            The filesystem you see from adb in TWRP and in Android/Ubuntu Touch is different.
                            I think recovery.img contains the original recovery, which I can't find how to use adb to connect to.

                              I'd like to learn more about UT dialing software. Could someone point me towards right direction, where I should start studying and looking into in all that stuff, in order to learn to help with the development. I tested and saw that the phone dials and rings, but after accepting a call, there is no voice been sent or received. Also couldn't end the call and even if the other person ends it, it will still look like the call is on with the OT phone. (I rebooted the phone to get the call off). Also sometimes it seemed like there was 2calls on at the same time with the same person. So, what kind of a problem we are dealing with here?

                                @shadowbird2468 The problems are that calling in general has issues in Halium 9. Currently it makes no sense I believe you look into this things, there are other people already on it. There are 3 or 4 services involved in calling, plus the Android container also ^^

                                    Install went smoothly. No issues.

                                    I'm in the USA on Tmobile. It does not see a sim card or even mention the option of mobile network in settings. I have tried both sim slots.

                                    Wifi works great, but the icon doesn't always show up despite connecting and working.

                                    Camera works great, video included. Best I've used so far.

                                    One small bug I have noticed is that I cannot always swipe right from left edge to open the app drawer.. Sometimes it will and other times nothing happens no matter how many times I try.

                                    GPS seems to work just fine for me. So does bluetooth, though I didn't test it very long.

                                    It lets me set my fingerprints and reads them fine, but the option to use it to unlock the screen is greyed out.

                                    Honestly, besides the swipe issue, if I had mobile network and data this thing would daily driveable. Can't wait to see this one as a stable release. Everything is quick and smooth and I really like it. Great job yall!

                                      Installation was fairly easy.

                                      The main issues/things that don't work expect that I've noticed are:

                                      • WiFi issues (networks showed at first but later do not show up at all)
                                      • Mobile Data issues (txt works OK, device has ip from carrier but connection still does not work)
                                        • I am in the US with TMobile
                                        • Unlike @drym4rch0n , my device does recognize the sim in slot one as TMobile
                                        • Looks like it would work with some tweaks (although I'm not sure what those are yet)
                                      • Sound in calls does not work
                                      • Bluetooth Audio does not work (although discovery and pairing seemed to work ok)
                                      • Touch buttons do not do anything currently
                                      • Slider does not do anything

                                      Overall, I am impressed with how much does work!
                                      Where can I find the source and instructions for trying to build myself? I might be interested in trying to hunt down some bugs.

                                        Just some notes:

                                        • Touch buttons are entirely disfunctional in Ubuntu Touch, there is no UX that involves using that buttons, so its no device issue
                                        • Slider button is unique to Oneplus 5 - what does it do in Android if you know? πŸ˜ƒ
                                        • Fingerprint reader wakes up the device currently since it emulates "keypresses" 🐷

                                          The OnePlus 6T has a slider on the side above the power button that in Android switched between Silent, Vibration and Ringer.

                                            @antidroid The silent mode works on the OP3 running UT from the slider (jfi) not sure about vibration.

                                              But those buttons can be activated, i know because on my MX4 the touch button works (now triggers app drawer, in the canonical era it was app launcher). ^^
