        Hi
        I just recently decided to try out Ubuntu Touch so I tried to install it on my phone and now just like the title it's basically bricked, can't do anything with it.
        I tried factory resetting it but it didn't work, searched the internet but no results.
        I'm relatively new to this kind of stuff so this might be a dumb question.
        Any help is appreciated, I just want my phone to work again.

          You can often "break the bootloop" via ADB or Fastboot commands!

          You have already tried Power Button + Volume Up or Down probably or not ?!
          Or by holding the Power Button for a long time ?

          I can remember having the same issue and solving it a couple of times so it should be possible! 🙂

          My phones :

          • BQ Aquaris E5 HD Ubuntu Phone Edition - Ubuntu Touch 16.04 LTS
          • ZUK Z2 Pro - ZUI Android 8.x
          • Xiaomi Mi 9T - Jolla SailFish 3.4.x Community Build

          P.S. : I am NOT a developer! ;)

            @nero355 I was able to fix the bootloop but something else happened. Now it's just stuck on the bootup screen the only thing I can access is fastboot I can't even get to recovery mode even if I used ADB to reboot into recovery it just stuck on the mi logo

              That's actually PERFECT! 😄

              Fastboot means you can flash the Stock Xiaomi Android ROM and have a working phone again! 😉

              Just use their official tool to do so : https://c.mi.com/in/miuidownload/detail?guide=2

              But please make sure you flash the latest Stock Xiaomi Android ROM that's needed as the base version in order to be able to flash Ubuntu Touch afterwards! 😉
