No support for bq Aquaris E5 FHD
-
@kugiigi You might be right. I must have been thinking of the BQ M10 (F)HD line.
-
@arubislander @kugiigi is right it was the HD version. Just sorted the original box out. The tablet was FHD just found that too.
-
@Lakotaubp Then I guess the OP can abandon hope.

@arubislander said in No support for bq Aquaris E5 FHD:
No, it was officially supported by Canonical. Even came with UT pre installed.
That I know, but when a device has so little information on it, even sales documents, one must assume it wasn't popular and was probably eol of a line or an inbetweener. There is plenty about the HD version though.
What I did find was this however useful this is! (Downloads work, but it is not UT so meandering.....)
I am surprised there is no Canonical archive.
-
@tacetion as being said before, unfortunetly, the supported devices we Krillin (E4.5) and Vegeta (E5 HD) but not the E5 FHD (Trunks?)

@MrT10001 I dunno, its VERY wierd. The phone has specifically engraved UBUNTU TOUCH EDITION. I think no one cared about that model and it went into obscurity...
-
@tacetion Where do you see that engraving? We're sure that that model never had a UT port.
And even the supported ones are already unsupported now. They're stuck with xenial (16.04). That's 2 major versions down at this point (24.04 Noble). -
-
@MrT10001 Yeah, its a prototype. It has the FHD screen but HD hardware
-
@kristatos That is UT 15 for HD, but it worked for me cause i have a prototype phone. Thanks a lot!
-
@tacetion so is it up and running with UT? A prototype is well worth keeping, collectors may seek something like that out..... It could also have had a screen replacement...
