      trying to port to pro 5 using below : then nothing happens , any ideas ?

      24 Meizu PRO 5 (turbo)

      How to install
      Install using system-image server

      1. Install the required tools:

      sudo apt-get install ubuntu-device-flash phablet-tools
      2. Reboot your device into fastboot mode and Connect your device with an USB cable to your computer.

      1. Download adb unlocked recovery: http://cdimage.ubports.com/devices/recovery-turbo.img

      wget http://cdimage.ubports.com/devices/recovery-turbo.img
      4. Flash your device using this command: (NOTE! This will wipe your phone!)

      sudo ubuntu-device-flash --server=http://system-image.ubports.com touch --device=turbo
      --channel=ubports-touch/legacy --bootstrap --recovery=recovery-turbo.img

      Just get this ..

      j@desktop:~$ sudo ubuntu-device-flash --server=http://system-image.ubports.com touch --device=turbo \

      --channel=ubports-touch/legacy --bootstrap --recovery=recovery-turbo.img
      unknown flag `recovery'
      j@desktop:~$

        I think the correct flag is --recovery-image=[Downloaded adb recovery image]

              @zx81 Try this in the recovery mode(Ubuntu not TWRP)

              sudo ubuntu-device-flash --server=https://system-image.ubports.com / touch \ --download-only --revision=2 --device=turbo --channel=ubports-touch/legacy \

                This will not work as you don't specify the recovery image. Also you've put it into download-only mode, which won't install any part of the OS.

                  So how come that it installed it on mu Pro 5?
                  There must a bug or something, but it downloaded and installed the Ubports image that I'm now using.
                  I manually flashed the recovery right before that.

                  I know that --download-only is intended for only downloading the files, that's what I wanted to do, but right after ubuntu-device-flash downloaded the files, it pushes them to cache and rebooted to recovery and started flash it over.
                  I was baffled as well.
