        @4htet , I also had many problems with halium-install, I've spent a lot of time to figuring out , using manjaro linux ...

        I've installed the : qemu-arm-static , binfmt-qemu-static, simg2img from simg-tools package

        and changed a line in function setup_passwd() ,from "halium-install/functions/distributions.sh"

           do_until_success sudo chroot "$ROOTFS_DIR" passwd $user
                to
           sudo chroot "$ROOTFS_DIR" passwd $user
        

        on the halium install script are described the dependencies:


        "

          Hello @Danct12 ,

          Flashing again Your last build, Mon 09 MAR, without any wipe -> all my settings were kept, this is normal? This is a feature? ... because of user data is stored in santoni:/data/user-data/phablet ?

          Another problem network interface from computer disappearing during the UB boot.
          Appearing for a short time then disappear. ๐Ÿ˜ž

              @aceclan Your home directory should stay intact, I flashed my nexus 5 on legacy build with halium 7.1 build and everything worked fine.

                I tried to log in to google account to sync my contacts. But at the log in page, keyboard is not popping up( not showing) . And one more thing, my language BURMESE letters are not showing in sms. Showing only square characters. I tried to install fonts and it is saying read only file system. Any IDEA?

                    @4htet Keyboard not popping up at Google page is probably a UBports error, the same issue is on Oneplus 3.

                    And read-only file system, you can try sudo mount -o rw,remount / to remount the rootfs as root.

                    But your language issue is weird, it could be a UBports issue unless someone tested it on official supported device.

                      @bisaalz Format your /data partition as ext4.

                        Same for me, format data as ext4 does not help. I am unable get any logs, dmesg -w on PC does not show anything, /sys/fs/pstore/console-ramoops file does not exist. I am unable to boot your recovery, sudo fastboot boot recovery.img show only mi logo. I tried to downgrade firmware, compile system by my own, many recovery images. But I am unable to boot this (and recovery from that post too). Some people on XDA have similar problem. I was using lastest MIUI 11.2 before.

                          @Danct12 maybe we should update blobs, I am not sure what else to do.

                            @danqo6 Perhaps you could try to flash a LOS 14.1 rom first and see if LOS loads.

                              @danqo6 , from the fastboot mode, check first:
                              $ fastboot devices
                              330915847d15 fastboot

                              then download and use: Latest TWRP

                              $ fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-0-santoni.img
                              Sending 'boot.img' (24844 KB) OKAY [ 0.783s]
                              Booting OKAY [ 0.715s]
                              Finished. Total time: 1.615s

                              After Backup ALL and copy TWRP folder to Your PC,
                              full format: Wipe/Format Data is needed to remove encryption

                              After flash system.img and rootfs.tar.gz don't forget to boot again to fastboot and flash hallium-boot.img:
                              fastboot flash boot halium-boot.img

                                      @bisaalz Please try to flash LineageOS 14.1 (just that, don't install Ubuntu), and reboot.

                                      If LineageOS 14 boots, can you try to install Ubuntu again? Perhaps this is needed first, I have not updated my device firmware for months now.
