          @shargar perfect, as you can see in that instructions you need to install the "old" Ubuntu Touch before installing UBports.

          Be very careful using SP Flash Tool.

                      @shargar do you have your tablet in developer mode and usb debugging allowed?

                      Have you tried a different usb cable?

                      Edit: check you have OEM unlocking on too
                      Edit 2: Oh, I'm remembering now. Do you have modemmanager installed on your Ubuntu? IIRC you need to remove it because is incompatible with SP Flash Tool
                      Edit 3: Hmm here (https://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/aquaris-m10-with-android.html) it says you can avoid that error running the tool with sudo

                        The BroM error is usually, a usb driver problem.
                        i have the fhd model,
                        in terminal i run
                        / sudo fastboot devices/
                        then start
                        / ubports-installer /
                        and run the installer.
                        i looked on "BQ support and could not find ubuntu for hd model,here is the link for FHD model ,it may help you search.

                          @advocatux. Yes, my tablet is in developer mode, usb debuging, and OEM unlocking.
                          My cable is ok, i see it with "sudo adb device".
                          To run the tool, I double click on it. I don't understand how to run it with sudo ? "sudo flash_tool" in a terminal ?

                            @shargar The link below is nothing to do with Ubports but will as @advocatux has said show you how to remove the modemanager quicker and better than I can type the instructions
                            http://www.mibqyyo.com/en-articles/2015/09/16/ubuntu-android-installation-process-for-bq-aquaris-e4-5-and-e5/#/vanilla/discussion/embed/?vanilla_discussion_id=0
                            Its near the top from point 3 down. If you have modemanager it will not work as far as I know.
                            Hope this helps all the best.

                              Hi ! It's ok for me. I did it. I try to explain with my magic english. So, in my case, the problem was I started the flash_tool without sudo. I went to the tool's files and I wrote sudo ./flash_tool and let's go
                              Before I tried with modemmanager remove without sucess...
                              For french peoples : Attention l'outils flash_tool doit être lancé avec la commande sudo ./flash_tool dans un terminal. Avant, bien se place rdans le bon dossier avec la commande cd
