        It's on bottom of each devices page also.
        See the "How to install Ubuntu Touch OS" part on link I put.

          By the way, in regard of the initial question, note that I've just published a new app for pdf reading that is called "Chromium Pdf" that should work pretty well for simple pdf viewing task.

              there is a way to hard reset the phone i guess

              Best would be to reinstall using UBports installer but NOT ticking the erase user data box.

              This is real "hard reset".
              Harder is to tick erase user data.

                    So reinstall Ubuntu Touch with installer from scratch, tick to reset/erase all, channel 24.04 stable.

                    AND AFTER THAT DON'T USE APT OR TERMINAL TO TRY INSTALLING ANYTHING.
                    For installing Waydroid use Waydroid helper from openstore.

                        Yes.
                        Beware you may have to reinstall a specific android version from volla before trying to install Ubuntu Touch.

                        Edit : you must have android 11 volla OS on your device before installing Ubuntu Touch on it.

                          @XPran OpenStore is the default app store in Ubuntu Touch. You should have it on the left dock of Lomiri.

                          Open the app and search for "WayDroid Helper". As Kenada said, Ubuntu Touch is not designed to play with apt or the terminal. This may brick your device....

                              Yes install this program on your computer:

                              https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/installer/

                              Connect your phone in USB, and follow the instructions, It's pretty straightforward, and soon you will have a functional phone, with all the apps that you need.

                                Please listen what we tell you or that thread will end nowhere!

                                Your phone has a version of Ubuntu Touch way too old, and broken !

                                You must reinstall a recent version of Ubuntu Touch (24.04) on top of the correct volla os version (based on android 11).
                                If you bought the device with Ubuntu Touch you shouldn't need to install volla os 11 though.

                                      You need to turn off the device, and then boot with long push on "power" and "volume up" at the same time, until you see a "Recovery Menu", then select the first option "Boot recovery", then connect it in USB to your computer and the installer should work fine.
