      So i would say, that we need UB ports to install Ubuntu on Huawei devices like the Huawei p20.
      Because there is no support for this Device.
      So how i could make to support the Huawei p20?

        @noxos2509 If I remember correctly most Huawei phones have an unlockable bootloader. An unlocked bootloader is a requirement to install UT.
        If it was possible either yourself or someone else would have to create the port (see the documentation) and it is not easy.

          But i have seen that there is a way to install cusem firmeware on it.
          And how i can create the port to make this even possible. Is it really not easy.
          Do i have to programm something.

            Sorry, do you mean a non-unlockable bootloader? As in, a bootloader that cannot be unlocked?

            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.

              If you can unlock bootloader on those devicez, yes, you'll have some work including "programming" maybe.

              Porting is not an easy task.

                @Moem Yes, the term gets confused. Huawei phones have a bootloader that cannot be unlocked. That is why there are so few ROMs and mods on XDA developers.
