    I've been using beta version 0.9 of Ubuntu Touch for 5 months now on the BraX3

      I am new to this forum but pretty active on the BraX forum. They put an open source Android phone out last year that they did get ported to Ubuntu Touch late last year. I installed the 0.9 version of your software by flashing using fastboot back in January of this year.

      The instructions are here:

      https://opensource.braxtech.net/devices/privacy/BraX3/Supported OS/ubuntu-touch/3.releases/#prerequisites

      The installation files are now here:

      https://download.os-source.co/brax3/ubuntutouchos/beta/0.9/

      I saw by doing a search here the the BraX3 maintainer named Plamen contacted developers to get the port started last year:

      https://forums.ubports.com/topic/10999/brax3-port-still-in-progress?_=1781296139077

      I love the software but it still needs work to get it to release status. There are hardware problems. Most of the time the Sim card is not recognized and when it is, phone calls can not be made in the USA. The fingerprint sensor and camera also do not work.

      Is there someone here that is able to work on this?

        @Lazarus2026 Holy... there is a whole ubuntu touch network outside of ubuntu touch?

        interesting at the least... someone with that device in hand has to make the port... (or in this case finish and maintain it)
        If i see what effort and time you are already putting in this project, you might be just the guy to do so?

        https://docs.ubports.com/en/latest/porting/introduction/index.html
        If you read the documents, it not only leads you to information on how to do so, but also to how members of ubuntu touch can help you with problems that arise when you are finishing there work.

        So if i read there forum, they are the biggest crowd fund in recent years, and dropped the "direct" support of ubuntu touch for there degoogled android project?
