        As above for some reason UT won't install properly. Does all the correct things, but then reboots to recovery.

        Same device, tried Xenial and Focal, same result. Installed TWRP wiped partitions and tried again, same result.

        Just sideloaded /e/OS without an issue.

        Any ideas?

            @MrT10001 what do you think was the root cause?

              @arubislander I thought it had the latest (last) version of Android on it, plus I was pretty certain I had the bootloader unlocked (all of the S7 G930F should have an unlocked bootloader). The boot to recovery when thinking about it (it was late) should have pointed me to the wrong Android version. Installed /e/OS version 1 (android 10) meaning unlocked bootloader and then installed UT.
