@guyhighlander Ubuntu 15.04 is the current stable release as far as I know. You can also try Ubuntu 16.04 but it is considered to be unstable and for testing only. I have 16.04 now running on my BQ M10 tablet and it work pretty well except for some glitches.

@guyhighlander I have 2 questions & 1 suggestion for you:

What channel did you use to install?
By Maizu4 do you mean Meizu MX4 (arale)?
You can use the OpenStore app to install apps

guyhighlander

Sorry forgot it the Ubuntu based phone from maizu and i guess it was arale,like on https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/device/arale.
maybe some thing went wrong with installation , while cant find openstore or cannot install it with uApp Explorer.

@guyhighlander you need to use the OpenStore app, not uappexplorer.

If you don't have it installed on your phone, download the vivid version here https://open-store.io/app/openstore.openstore-team and install that package manually.

You can use UT Tweak tool to install it or the CLI pkcon install-local --allow-untrusted path_to_package.click

Okay, How you doing it ,guess via desktop , no terminal available on phone.Thanks

@guyhighlander You should be able to download terminal and install it to your device the same way

@guyhighlander Both terminal and openstore should have been installed at the start. I would suggest you try reinstalling 15.04 stable with the UBports installer something didn't go right first time. Back up your stuff first of course, then you should have a nice clean install to play with.

Sorry took some days,but successful reinstalled 15.04 ,now OpenStore and new apps available, will try some new and old ones out,if they working or not. Thanks for help
