      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....

            @Keneda from where ? UB ports from the pc?

            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 phone, and then boot with long push on "power" and "volume up" buttons 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. Select Ubuntu Touch 24.04, and sit back & relax while the installer is doing its job.

                      Here we are, finally to give you the good news, after months of fighting we managed to update it. It remains a mystery why it wouldn't start, I tried from 3 different PCs thinking that was the problem but nothing. Tonight, however, everything went smoothly, what did I do differently? Tonight I tried the procedure from a PC with a Linux operating system. I have no idea why with Windows it would freeze at the beginning of the loading, but today instead it updated and works. Thanks to everyone for your infinite patience.🙏

                        @pparent your statement its 100% true . now with the 24.04 its waaaay faster. thanks again for the support. im gonna delete waydroid It's still there since I downloaded it with version 16.04 and it didn't work, as you advised me I didn't tick "wipe user data" so im gonna reinstall.

                        😊 🙏
