<![CDATA[Issue installing Ubuntu Touch via UbPorts on OP 5T]]>I'm having an issue installing Ubuntu Touch via the UbPorts app on a Windows 10 machine. I get prompted to install Ubuntu Touch on the app and it reboots my phone where I now see a "Flashing Firmware Using FastBoot" message on the app but my phone is set in a bootloader mode with the options to "Start", "Recovery", "Power Off", or "Restart bootloader" and I see a message at the bottom on my phone that says "DEVICE STATE: locked". What should I do from here?

A bit of a pain to figure out at first.

Sorry I figured out my problem was a missing Windows driver when my phone was in bootloader mode that I needed to install. Everything else about the instructions were straight forward. Thanks!

I dont know now exactly if we do this from the installer.

That would ask confirmation, do it.
Note: This will wipe all data from the phone.

This is so bizarre. I do it, install the ADB tool and Google Drivers, but when I reboot my phone after selecting OEM Unlock, it goes right back to "Device State - Locked" at the bottom.
