Any news?

@muskist actually the PR to add it to the installer was just opened 5 days ago at time of writing: https://github.com/ubports/installer-configs/pull/166

Hi @muskist,
if you don't want to wait, you can just download the installer-config file and execute the ubports-installer from the terminal like this:
$ ubports-installer -v -f X605.yml
-
The X605 is now available in the ubports-installer.

@luksus - thanks so much for your work on this. Does this also mean that the X605 can also get OTA updates?

Yes.
It has some quirks to reboot into system, after an update, but there are ways to workaround it... for example boot to recovery and just restart again. -

OK!
I've got a x605 "polar withe“ with less memory (2 GB and 16 GB) but "brand new" (via Ebay).
I already updated it to Android 9 (from 8).
In the coming days I will try...Thanks!

@flaviomala Hi, I don't want to damp your enthusiasm, but it may be that we have issues with the 2GB/16GB version of this tablet.
Somehow it seems that the recovery is not working anymore, when flashed with a modified recovery.img. But this is essential for the installer and OTA updates to work.
I am currently investigating this issue.
What still works, is flashing the latest build artifacts with fastboot manually from here:

@luksus OK Thanks!
Errata Corrige: "polar white" (a little dyslexic...!)A question:
give it a try with "installer"... or directly manually? -

A question:

Thanks. -
