        I want to reinstall Android on my device in order to update the Android version to Android 9 or higher. It seems that I might need to format my phone to write the original image back to the phone. Can anyone help?

          From what I know you can try to follow the instructions there:
          https://developers.google.com/android/images
          or
          https://developers.google.com/android/ota
          (not sure which one the best)

          And yeah be careful to save every data you need because it will wipe your phone totally clean from Ubuntu Touch.

            @applee The Xperia X is a Sony device, its unlikely to find any instructions on Google pages. Rather, look on Google for how to install factory or stock firmware for Sony Xperia X.

                        OK, a good guess so ^^
                        Don't forget that's not because we speak english here, that we all rule this language.
                        Lot of us have another native language (my case), and full words are better to use.
