Gigaset GS4 - Gigaset290 - Volla Phone black Screen after starting the installer

[stonee]

Hi, i have an Gigaset gs4 witch is simliar to the Volla Phone. Starting the Installer causes black Screen and the Phone does nothing.
What can i do?

@stonee The Gigaset GS290 doesn't have the same digital signature as the Volla Phone, although the hardware itself is the same.

Maybe try installing /e/OS to get it working again:

I doubt Ubuntu Touch would be easy to install on it.
Some people have managed to do this by modifying lines of code in the root of the device, but that's beyond my skills...

And this is Gigaset GS4, which is probably not identical to the Gigaset GS290.

@Moem Indeed, the title is confusing... GS4 is definitely unsupported by UBports.

Any Gigaset device is not officially supported by us. There have been many discussions on here about that. Some have got UT running on Gigaset devices but you need to be careful.
