          @reynald : Installer version 0.9.1 has issues. Just try an older version. Will put link here wait a sec
          EDIT: here > https://github.com/ubports/ubports-installer/releases (scroll down on that page for older versions and all their package types, I've just read that 0.8.8 and 0.8.9 work best apparently)

            @alter Maybe, but... I tried installer 0.9.1 because installer 0.8.9 has downloading issues...

              @reynald : I have a Volla Phone and in my case I also saw a download error. The installer could not get the .zip from Volla website. I used a browser for that. The installer had created .cache/ubports on my Ubuntu desktop PC. In the contents in a subfolder of that was a .zip which was 0 bytes. Replaced it with the full zip. Then opened installer and could install from there. Maybe works for you.

                @alter Well... I start thinking a manual install script based on curl, fastboot and adb would be more usable than circumventing so many ubports-installer bugs!

                  @reynald : I don't know any scripting, so for me the installer is still helpful. My first install of Ubuntu Touch on Nexus 5 went smooth as silk. The install on Volla Phone was different, but succeeded in the end, without needing scripting knowledge. I only downloaded that .zip manually and placed it in the right folder. I can understand your frustration at this point, but don't give up and try again! Good luck!

                    @Reynald please try wiping data and cache with twrp recovery first...

                      Reinstalling older 0.8.9 installer fixed the flashing bug.
                      UTouch finally installed on my OnePlus!!! (one month battle...)
