        Hello everyone!

        I want to install Ubuntu touch on a Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite phone which has a native Android OS.

        I have tried with UBport_installer, but there is not port for this device yet.

        Then I have tried to install Halium on the device, but I am stuck at this page:
        https://docs.halium.org/en/latest/porting/get-sources.html#adding-your-device-specific-source

        The "adding device-specific source" mention that a Github source should be found for the device, but for my smartphone, it doesn't exist.

        Do you see any alternative for the installation?

        Thanks for the help!

          @drosera_capensis the only option is to try to port that device to Halium, and then try to port it to UT.
