I think I am finally making some headway. I had downloaded the appimage. What I wasn't doing was launching it as sudo. Once I did that I am now seeing progress.

Failed. Bug reported.

can you adb push /some/file /cache/recovery using some file you have around? the device should be in recovery mode

t3kg33k · 9 Sept 2020, 13:19

@doniks yes, I was able to push a file successfully.

@t3kg33k can you manually push the same file to the same location

so, that should be

@t3kg33k Can you please stop using Rodney´s avatar here, its not nice to take other ppls pictures and recolor them, someone might think you are him.

AppLee · 10 Sept 2020, 08:43

@Flohack
We thought about it too, but it appears that is Harrisson Ford in the picture (from Blade Runner).
So we can't really say that it's Dobey's... At least the color is different and the username is different too

flohack · 10 Sept 2020, 08:47

@AppLee yeah kinda. Then again its still just very lazy to take some else´s avatar and recolor it cmon guys you can do better!

Dude, I've had and used that avatar for several years. I didn't know he was using it. It just shows we both have the same great taste in movies. It's easily the best movie ever.

I can as if I run the adb command as sudo. Without I got permission denied.

Update: That clued me in. So, this time I ran the UBports Installer AppImage as sudo and it looks to have been successful this time.
Thanks for the assist.

Ha. Interesting. I did not expect that. And actually, I do not understand it, but hey. Glad it worked!
