        @MrT10001 that's what I thought. I have 11.2, used msmtool back to 9 and then unlocked bootloader, enabled USB debugging then tried the installer.

        I wasn't sure if maybe something else needed done since I had postmarket on it.

        Also even once UBT was booted the installer wouldn't recognize the phone. And with UB installed that way there was no recovery, when I booted recovery it just went straight to the OS.

          I tried again last night.

          Msmtool back to android

          Installed stock android 9 zip file from oneplus website using local update.

          Unlock bootloader

          Go back into android allow USB debugging

          Try to flash with installer, it goes really fast on
          Flashing fimrware
          Then starts the downloads at 10 of 14 and goes from there and pushes Ubuntu touch files.

          Puts into UB recovery, then if I reboot or do anything it just goes the bootloader is unlocked screen unless I reboot in fastboot.

          I tried on a windows machine and a Ubuntu machine. Used 11.2 and on the windows one tried the 11.2 and 8.8.
          Tried flashing UB 20 and 24 both did the same thing.

            @FrostDaemon Try installer version 0.10.0. Clear your downloads cache on the installer as well.

              @MrT10001 I tried again
              Msmtool
              Local update android 9 from oneplus
              Unlock bootloader
              Allow debugging and check always allow for that computer
              Used installer 10.0 cleared cache first

              This time it started by downloading 2 files, then flashed firmware in like 2 seconds, had me reboot to recovery and started the download on 11 of 14 and went through. Booted hung on UB lineage logo then went to recovery.

              Same result on windows and Ubuntu machines, two different laptops. Used USB 2.0 and 3.0 and different cables with no avail.

              The next thing I'll try when I get off today is to do a fresh Ubuntu install on a different laptop and try that.

              Could it be the android 9 zip I'm using from oneplus website ?

              I'm really confused because I've installed UB on this device before with no issues from the installer.

                @FrostDaemon Looks like your ROM may be at fault. I got mine from here:

                XDA developers.

                  @MrT10001 awesome I'll try one of those. Should I use the lowest one the 9.0.4 I think I saw ?

                    @MrT10001 none of the download links work for android 9 sadly. I'll look for other downloads.

                      @FrostDaemon They are working for me. I also used the Android 9 downgrade zip. It does the job well.

                        @MrT10001 got it to download, had to edit my etc/host file and add the oneplus site IP.

                        But it went right back into recovery again.
                        I'll try some more stuff tomorrow since I'm off.

                        Thank you for the help so far, I really appreciate it.

                          @FrostDaemon Try going above Android 9 and then use the rollback zip ROM to roll back. Don't use TWRP to install the zip.

                            @MrT10001 I did not use trwp just local update.
                            But I did get it to go. I reset the phone, used the zip from the XDA link you put, then used a different computer with a fresh ubuntu install, flash UB24 from there it booted into recovery, I then flashed UB20 from the installer and was able to update to 24. Not sure why that worked but it did.

                            Thank you for helping.

                            EDIT
                            so I posted that while it was updating to 24.0 and it rebooted right back to recovery and that was it, I was able to re flash 20.0.
                            So I assume 24.0 just does not work on the 6t as of yet, which is cool since it is still new.
