        I have a bq Aquaris E5 FHD, and i cant find any build, like not even Canonical's one, ive even searched in https://system-image.ubports.com/ im desperate! And its not like i can just go to the website and search it, because bq went out of buisness! So if someone has a link to the zip file with the images and the MTK scatter file, it would help a lot! You can't do much with Android Lollipop.
        Just a reminder to anyone helping: I specifically need the FHD (1080p) version, not the HD (720p). The HD files use the MT6582 scatter, while my FHD model needs the MT6592 scatter. Using the wrong one will result in a hang/bootloop in the bq screen, thanks!

          under system-image.ubports.com there are some images for this device.

            But that is the UT version. If I remember correctly you need to flash the Canonical version before flashing the UBports version of UT.

              @arubislander Exactly! That's why I'm looking for the Canonical factory zip. Since BQ's servers are dead, do you (or anyone) have a mirror of the original vegetafhd factory firmware? I need the MT6592 scatter and the raw images to prep the partitions before I move to UBports. Android Lollipop is a dead end!
