GUI loads. The device is very very slow.
No WiFi, No Bluetooth, No SIM, No GPS, No Sound -
I thought the GSI was no longer supported or us this something else?
-
@lakotaubp yes, GSI didn't work for me. I built halium-boot.img and system.img
The device boots into Lomiri UI, apps work.
All the other stuff doesn't work. I will start from scratch. -
Source code:
https://github.com/xiaomi-tissot-ubuntuSound works, Sensors work, GUI works

I have Xiaomi Mi A2 and a car Citroen C4. I have paired the phone but only hear the calls in it, not in the car. I can't listen the phone's music in the car. If you can do it in A1, it would be the solution for A2.
-
I tried to follow the instructions. Now it says "the system has been destroyed". ¿Any chance of recovery?
-
@rapto Never mind. Started from 'flash stock rom' and retrying...
-
@rapto Nope. System destroyed again. There must be something I am not doing right.
-
@turanmahmudov Thank you for sharing :smiling_face_with_heart-eyes: :heart_suit: . Is it your last build?
-
@turanmahmudov I just finished flash and can not boot. It's with a white screen with three color bar and mi logo. How can I boot or ssh to my phone? Please help me.

This post is deleted! -
Finally, it's worked. I'm on the Ubuntu language selection menu.
Fixed with below:
Entered to bootloader with volume down button and booted to recovery with a fastboot (fastboot boot twrp_recovery.img).
But recovery asking password for decrypt data. Clicked cancel and wiped factory reset slide and formatted with "yes". Then restarted and phone is booted up. Thank you very much. -
Is it stable enough for daily use?
I have a spare mi a1 that I would like use specifically for ubports. I don't mind helping with flashing and testing. -

@turanmahmudov Thank you for your hard work and dedication, I have Mi A1 and now I am downloading it to try Ubuntu Touch!
-
@maahymot Please be aware that this posts are some years old and as far as I can see it, the latest version of Ubuntu Touch is not officialy running on the Mi A1. But if you get some version of UT running on the Mi A1, it will probably be good enough to just try out the OS.
