Trouble Installing on Oneplus One (Solved)
-
@Edward-Wilhelm You need to give permission for the adb connection to work with the device. You could revoke all other connections and try again. I would just boot the phone into normal mode, connect it to pc/laptop and start the installer. Watch both installer and device closely. Accept the connection on the device when it asks then just follow the installer instructions.

I do not understand what you mean. I enabled the MTP and ADB and dev mode. I installed the fast boot. I run the installer. The phone says
"fastboot mode"
the installer says it is flashing the device. It stays like that and nothing changes.
I have followed all the instructions I could find.The website says this
" Installing Ubuntu Touch is EasyWith the UBports installer, you can get Ubuntu Touch on your device without breaking a sweat. You can use any computer to run the installer. Simply plug in your device and follow the on-screen instructions. Then sit back and let your computer do all the work. "
I do not know what to do now. I have done everything the installer said to do.

@Edward-Wilhelm Can you try a few other usb cables. It seems the connection between you pc/laptop and device is not working somehow.
Before you do that. Stop the installer and with the device in fastboot mode type in a terminalFastboot devices
Is your device listed? If yes we need to look elsewhere if not that is the issue.

Also have a look here it was very similar to your issue https://forums.ubports.com/topic/4033/oneplus-one-installation-trouble/2
Are you using the snap version of the installer? AS you can see the progress of installing in the terminal as it runs. Might give you another clue. -

running "fastboot devices" gives:
no permissions (user in plugdev group; are your udev rules wrong?); see [http://developer.android.com/tools/device.html] fastboot
I could not get the snap version to run. It installed, but when I tried to run it, it said there was an error and that something must have gone wrong during the installation. I have since removed the snap version. I am now running the debian package version.

@Edward-Wilhelm Right, that's what needs fixing, fastboot has not the permission to access the device. Give me a minute to re-read through.
-
@Edward-Wilhelm Open a terminal and rerun the sudo apt update and sudo apt-get install commands from above again. When that's done in a terminal type sudo fastboot OEM unlock
Then try again. -
okay ran:
sudo apt update and sudo apt-get install commands from above again
then:
adb devices
List of devices attached- daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
- daemon started successfully
******** device
next ran sudo fastboot OEM unlock
it returned that it was waiting for any devicethen I ran the installer and it returned:
fastboot: usage: unknown command OEM -
Does anyone have a liveboot OS that has everything needed to run install out of the box?
-
@Edward-Wilhelm Sorry. Put your device in fastboot then run in terminal sudo fastboot oem unlock
-
@Lakotaubp
It still returned:
fastboot: usage: unknown command OEM -
@Edward-Wilhelm Have you tried a few usb cables and ports
-
And I guess fastboot devices still returns the same error as before.
-
what happens if you write oem instead of OEM?
-
@Rondarius
It returns:
< waiting for any device >and then waits for a response
-
@Lakotaubp
I have now tried two different cables in two different ports -
@Edward-Wilhelm What needs sorting is the udev rules. That link that came up after your error message shows you how. It's something I have never done I must admit.

Okay. My brother let me use his computer that is running pop os. I installed snap, fastboot, the ubuntu installer from within snap etc. I ran the installation on the phone and everything appeared to be working. It prompted me in the gui to run unblock oem which I did. The phone went through several different screens including loading 142 of something, and an android graphic that said erasing. It rebooted itself a couple times. The phone screen is now black, but a light on the front of the phone is flashing various colours. The installer says "flashing firmware...". It has been stuck like this for a while now. Do you think the installation process is working? How long should it stay like this? -
I rebooted the phone and it is now stuck on a screen saying
"powered by ubuntu
supported by ubports"
What do I do? -
If you guys could help me get this phone working I would be more than happy to make a donation and I would be ever grateful. I know that you all are not doing this to get rich. I have now spent many many hours trying to get this to work, and now I have nothing to show for this, except a broken phone.
