        Also flashed it yesterday without any issues. Seems to be working quite well so far other than the issues mentioned above, I'll report back if anything else becomes apparent... thanks for your efforts @Flohack πŸ™‚

            Hi. Found your thread and installed the port. My first try of Ubuntu Touch and it works surprisingly well on my Nexus 6P! I'm not a hardcore developer, but if there is any demand, I can challenge my developing skills in contributing to this port! πŸ™‚

            btw; Had no issues whatsoever while installing the OS. The only issues is with the missing features, like camera and appstore that you most likely already know about. I have the 8-core version.

                    @Rondarius I did not upload a new one, since there were no significant changes. Just now I am thinking of preparing an update, and I find rotation broken. Thats why I ask, if rotation works on the old one πŸ˜‰

                        @Flohack Works on mine. Occasionally there is some sort of sensor crash happening in the background. When it stops working, GPS and other things stop working. But I haven't been able to figure out what triggers it

                          @Flohack Sorry for late response. The store is there, but doesn't load anything. I can update through the system settings though.

                            Finally some news:

                            • I have uploaded now 2 versions of the kernel, 4 and 8 cores, you might want to try 8 cores on your phones to see if you are affected by the CPU bug
                            • I have removed the root fs from my server. You can now use the 32bit rootfs that we build every day on our CI, which will contain latest fixes etc. IF
                            • system.img is updated also (download from my server)

                            Description has been updated (look for the downloads around item 1)

                              @Flohack I think either I did something wrong, or something isn't right in the build.

                              I used the updated instructions, item 3 from https://pad.ubports.com/p/nexus-6p-alphatesting

                              The halium install script errored out saying it couldn't connect with adb. So, I loaded TWRP and connected to adb through that. It errored out again because of a reboot command in the script. So, I decided to wipe the device from scratch, re-installed android and wiped dalvick, data, and cache. Then re-tried the install script. It worked with no errors. Did the next part replacing halium-boot-image with halium-boot-8-cores.img following the instructions in item 3 using these commands(I am using the 8 core TWRP and UT build previously with no problems):

                              ./halium-install-standalone.sh -p ut ubports-touch.rootfs-xenial-armhf.tar.gz system.img
                              adb reboot bootloader
                              fastboot flash boot halium-boot-8-cores.img
                              fastboot reboot

                              Now I just get the google logo over and over. I am able to boot into bootloader and recovery. So, what have I done wrong?

                                @rocket2nfinity Did you use the flash-all script in the android rom? And did you run it in terminal? When I ran the script in terminal i got an error and the script stopped, I had to install the Android images manually instead.

                                  @Rondarius Just re-installed bootloader manually with fastboot and tried again with the flash all script. No errors. But still hung at the google logo. When I re-installed android, I did reboot it to turn on usb debugging, then rebooted to TWRP to wipe Dalvick, data, and cache before I ran the install instructions in item 3. So the bootloader did properly install.

                                    @rocket2nfinity Did you run the script in the terminal? I ran the script not using the terminal and it gave no errors but it did in the terminal.

                                      @Rondarius How do you run the script not using terminal? I used terminal to do everything.

                                        @rocket2nfinity πŸ™‚ You right click the script under Properties you are able to make it executable.

                                            @Rondarius I guess I have some old habits. I always right click scripts to make them executable but then I start them with ./ anyway. I never just click the file. Guess I should take the easy path from time to time.

                                            Were you able to get the new build running on your device?
