        I have two X23's and wanted to move one to Volla OS. I figured I would use the Ubuntu Touch installer and choose Volla OS. It gave me an "unknown error". I opened an issue on Github but no idea when this could be resolved. Other than the Ubuntu Touch Installer is there any other way I can move from Ubuntu Touch to Volla OS ?

        Volla X23 on 20.04

          @Simmonz Hi there, mate. Was the bootloader unlocked when you attempted the downgrade?

            More than likely not but that is looking like it's own issue. I tried unlocking it with the X23 in fastboot mode and plugging it into my pc and using terminal.

            here is the output from using the command "fastboot flashing unlock":

            fastboot flashing unlock
            FAILED (remote: 'Prohibit unlock operation
            ')
            fastboot: error: Command failed

            I also tried "fastboot oem unlock":

            fastboot oem unlock
            FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')
            fastboot: error: Command failed

              @Simmonz If you are familiar with mtk client you can unlock the bootloader from there too since Volla devices have mediatek chipsets.

              May the source be with you
