Porting to OnePlus One A0001 Cyanogen

[formula82]

(1) I received OnePlus One A0001 Cyanogen with Android
(2) I changed Android settings: enabled developer settings, enabled USB debugging
(3) I got the UBports installer
(4) I booted OPO to bootloader, ran fastboot oem unlock from terminal, then rebooted to recovery
(5) Now I open the UBports installer and it recognizes bacon
(6) I select stable/wipe/bootstrap, then run
(7) Installer reports success, then OPO reboots
(8) OPO goes to an "Installing Updates" screen with a Yumi animation, finishes and reboots.
(9) Now sometimes:
(9a) It goes into boot loop: display lights up, but goes off before the UT splash screen.
(9b) It gets to the UT setup prompts, but if I remove my phone from the computer, the boot loop occurs again.

I've tried UBports installer 0.8.8-beta (snap, deb, and appimage)
I've also tried the 0.8.6-beta appimage.
I've tried running the 0.8.6-beta appimage from the terminal as root.
I've also tried the halium-devel channel.
I've also tried several different USB cables.

Any recommendations would be appreciated, thanks!

@formula82 As a test try and fully charge your phone before switching on. I had an issue with a OPO that would only boot when connected to a power supply if not it looped. A new battery fixed it.

Just to avoid possible confusion:
what you are trying to do is installing, also called flashing.
Porting means creating the installation files for a device that's not yet supported by UBports.

Did you change partition layout? I recommend you flash stock ROM first, and then try again. Oneplus One is one of our most stable devices, there are plenty of people that have successfully installed it.

@flohack thanks for the suggestion, the following solution worked for me via https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-ota-mirrors-for-official-cyanogen-roms-and-ota-updates.2906746/ and https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-unlock-root-flash-for-oneplus-one.2839471/

unzip ${image}.zip -d $image
cd ./$image
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash sbl1 sbl1.mbn
fastboot flash dbi sdi.mbn
fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn
fastboot flash rpm rpm.mbn
fastboot flash tz tz.mbn
fastboot flash LOGO logo.bin
fastboot flash oppostanvbk static_nvbk.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata_64G.img
fastboot reboot

Then after I set up Android and enabled developer settings + ADB, the ubports-installer 0.8.6-beta appimage worked as expected
