bolded textRe: Anyone tried installing another OS on a Ubuntu Touch X23
Hi
I have got following instructions on how to install Volla OS onto my Volla X23 phone which has installed by manufacturer Ubuntu Touch.
Here it is

Here's screenshot

I should mention that I have flashed Ubuntu Touch back again without any problems after failed attempt to install Volla OS.

I see many occurences of this kind of problem on the Github site, such as
https://github.com/ubports/ubports-installer/issues/2412
the reference in this post is on this forum and then it goes to a blog post (here: https://rubencarneiro.github.io/rubencarneiro.io//Volla-phone-Repair/) that links itself to a Mediatek flash tool that is reported to work.
It's complicated, however I can't directly help you I have a Fairphone myself. Good luck.

I don't know if you noticed it, but a dev took interest in this problem and has prepared a change to the installer. This change was approved by a maintainer so there is a good chance it will find a way to a new release of the installer. If you want to test it immediately you will have to know how to compile stuff first
