        Is anybody else out there like me who is very outdoorsy and bought the most rugged affordable phone they could find, in my case I have the Oukitel WP10, and is interested in maybe working together in a port? The WP 10 is a beast. 8core CPU 8gb, ddr4 ram, 5g networking, 48MP Sony camera. Lots of insane specs. Not to mention the physical build is built like a tank and with 8000mah battery built in. The best part is the phone brand new is less than $400. I bought it to have a phone that's not going to break and this thing is a beast. However would love to have ubuntu with it. If anyone is interested in working on a port with me. Please lmk.

          I've included a link to that phone for anyone interested. I too would like to see if a port could be done. I can be pretty rough on phones and this would really help.

            It's just the MediaTek Dimensity 800 so not really a beast compared to a lot of Qualcomm SoC's but they are fun phones for sure! 😉

            The only thing is that I can remember them to be a lot cheaper in the past ?!

            My phones :

            • BQ Aquaris E5 HD Ubuntu Phone Edition - Ubuntu Touch 16.04 LTS
            • ZUK Z2 Pro - ZUI Android 8.x
            • Xiaomi Mi 9T - Jolla SailFish 3.4.x Community Build

            P.S. : I am NOT a developer! ;)

              @wvanloon32 First question can you unlock the bootloader. If no then it's a stop right there.

                @wvanloon32 Also moved to porting as that is the correct place for now.

                  This doesn't say how, but it does suggest that it's possible.

                  Is currently using an Op5t
                  Also owns an Op1, a BQ E4.5 and an Xperia X, as well as a BQ tablet and a Pinetab2. Please, someone... make it stop.

                    @moem First issue solved (hopefully) just the rest.
