Ubuntu Boot problems after install On A2
-
Hi everyone, I am new here! and happy to be participating !
I just tried to install Ubuntu touch, but when ubuntu is booting the screen just goes black during the splashscreen loading phase :
(not an actual screenshot...)Before calling for a bug, I want to share with you my process for validation.
1 - First I unlock my bootloader using fastboot
2 - install TWRP
3 - Flash the jasmine_sprout_stock_android9.zip that UBports installer is suggesting to me
4 - Reboot on the android to put developer mode "on"
5 - Run UBports installer till the end.I have to say that during my first attempt, my computer randomly shut down fastboot during UBports intallation (due to amd usb issues I think). and before that I wrongly flashed an UBtouch rom that switched my android fastboot to a linux one.
After all of this I still managed to wipe my phone and then install UBtouch.
I did all of this using UBports Appimage from Elementary OS
I also tried using manjaro on an other computer but having the usb Issue.I managed now to reset and lock again my phone with the mi flash tool to restart the process from fresh. I also found an usb amd issue bootloader fix (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJNVxUYdRe4). My next attempt will be on windows using powershell.
My questions : - Did I understood well the process ?
- Is it a good idea to try again according my UBtouch boot problem?Thanks!

@bristledking Are you still having installation issues?
-
Hi!
Did you find a workaround?I am also having this issue...

Sorry for offtopic, but I also had a problem with installation, but on Xiaomi Redmi Note 7, in one case ubports-installer turned the phone into a brick, in other after reflashing it fell out into halium recovery mode. I could only successfully install only through TWRP v10 GSI firmware, which then does not update. I temporarily restored Android from the backup, but now it has broken WiFi, MAC is 02:00:00:00:00:00, BTW, does anyone know how to fix it? with BT somehow everything is slow.

@markatrafik wrong section, I think ubuntu touch may overwrite some files
-
@carlod Some people claim that the files on the 'persist' (ext4) and 'persist_image' (emmc) partitions were changed, but I saved and restored those too. So something else. Maybe some code inside in the WiFi chip (Qualcomm) ? Unfortunately I do not know yet in detail how it works.

@markatrafik HI, I had the same issue with MAC address to 02:00...
To fix it, I had to go to fastboot unlock critical and do a flash_all from a stock androidone.
Tell me whether you need more info.
