        Hello, i have a Volla phone with ubuntu, updated to the 20.04 OTA 4. But since this OTA 4, i'm completely unable to do more updates (from the 20.04 stable channel). It downloads the update, after i restart it for the install and it goes to a boot recovery menu. And if i choose to "reboot system now", it comes back to OTA 4. The other entries are "Ubuntu Actions" and "Android Actions" but i don't know which actions i have to choose. For ubuntu, there are :
        "Reboot system now" (it goes back to OTA 4),
        "Replace ubuntu android system"
        "Install ubuntu zip"
        "Insatll ubuntu preinstalled" (but it is already installed?)
        "Wipe data/factory reset"

        I only want to update the system not to replace it or re-insatll it ....

          @aenima I have the same same - except for me it has got 'stuck' at OTA-6. If I check for updates, it tells me that OTA-9 is available, and it downloads it and then invites me to install it. From thereon in, I get exactly the same effect as you. It always reverts back to OTA-6, dated 19th November 2024.

          You don't appear to have had any responses previously. I am wondering whether you have found your own solution or have made any progress?

          I understand that -9 includes updates specific to Vollaphones, and I am hoping that, what was described to me as a 4G phone, will actually continue to function as a phone now that 3G networks have been switched off.

              You can also try to reinstall with UBports Installer and NOT check "Wipe" option.
              It will reinstall the latest build without erase your data.
