        Hello UBportors:

        I have a BQ Aquarius M10 FHD.... and had communicated with this forum sometime within the last year or so.

        I was advised to update tye OS to Ubuntu 16.04 (or something like that), so I did it.

        I played with the trablet for a while, tinckered with a few files to get a VPN working... and have up. Perhaps I screwed things up

        Then got busy with several other projects, but now I've come back to play with the tablet again. My goal is to get it to read epub books... that's all.

        I have fully charged tablet.

        When I try to boot it up, it gets as far as the Ubuntu Touch screen... and then goes black... maybe it turns itself off.

        What should I do? How can I get it to boot again? Should I reload 16.04? I forgot how to do that.

        Please advise me!

          @Daryl There was an issue some time ago with OTA-25 and BQ devices. The behaviour was similar to what you described. The solution was to press power button and volume - together for up to 15 seconds. Maybe you have to retry a couple of times.

          If that does not help, you can double check the files you used because be aware that there are two BQ Aquarius M10, HD and FHD.
