Cannot install UT on my One plus one
-
@moem It doesnt go into recovery, just does a regular startup to the same screen.
I hold the both buttons for about 5 seconds before anything happens. Tried holing it for longer justs turns it on/off. I will try to flash the system with a microSD card later today, saw a thread on this error somewhere on this forum. -

It should go into Fastboot. Recovery is up + power, fastboot is down + power.
I suspect user error, but I can't point to what exactly you are doing wrong. These are very basic features of the phone, they don't generally malfunction. -
@moem Yeah nothing with the Volume Down + Power option either. Didnt do anything.
-
@regular_guy And you're trying these while the phone is off?
-
@moem Yes
-
@regular_guy And when you hold it longer it just boots into the boot splash screen?
-
@regular_guy Try running it through the installer again and tick all the boxes available.
-
Switch on and connect the phone to your pc and with the device on type in a terminal
-
adb devices
-
If your phone is seen then type
-
adb reboot bootloader
That should put the phone into fastboot mode. Start the installer pick the OPO yourself if not detected by the installer. Tick all the boxes and start the installer and see how that goes.

@moem Yeah, exactly like that.
When the battery is low it shows the screen that it needs charging and that's it. -
OK so i bought a Google's Nexus 7, i would like to put UbuntuTouch on it, since my phone seems to be pretty much stuck in a dead end.

@regular_guy Make sure it is the 2013 version, LTE (with SIM slot) DEB, or the 2013 WIFI version FLO. UT is not available for the 2012 version.

So its this one. I checked with the model number "MOB30X" on Google, so i think that's good of a reason to start with the instalation. -
@regular_guy Holy Cow, yeeeeesss! I successfully installed UT on Nexus with zero issues. Thank you everyone for helping me in the past couple of days.
PS: i really learned a lot about android recently, it was interesting experience to poke around it.
-
@regular_guy That is very good news! Congratulations on your success!

@moem Thank you, after some time using i might say that it is quite awesome, yet to try sim card capabilities
