      By softbricked do you mean you had the same problem as the one I have? could you still access your recovery? (I guess so if you could access the fastboot mode)
      My worry is that these tools use adb or fastboot under the hood, i'll give spflash tool a try now, even just to get android back on the tablet

          I am a complete Ubports newbie, but I was in a similar sounding situation yesterday, after I interrupted the installation process on my Nexus 5. I was stuck on a screen with a Google logo with an icon of a small, open lock. I didn't see any "orange state" nor "trusted" nor "rebooting messages."

          I was able to get the Nexus 5 back into the fastboot screen by running "fastboot oem unlock" in a terminal on my Antix Linux PC while the Nexus 5 was connected to it.

          As I recall, I was root when I ran that command, while my Nexus 5 was turned on, displaying the stuck Google screen.

          You can also try this method with your BQ M10 FHD turned off. After entering the fastboot command in the terminal, a fastboot message should appear saying, "< waiting for any device >." Then, try to press (and hold?) the various possible button combinations to get it into fastboot mode.

          I tried MDT with a Lubuntu liveUSB, but I was unable to get it to work. Ubports-installer worked for me. If you use ubports-installer, make sure not to touch any of the options when "Ubports Recovery" screen appears -- it is counter intuitive, but that screen probably means that the installation is proceeding.

            FreeJohn,
            No, I was able to get to the screen with the Fastboot option using the volume up/power button option. it was there that I had difficulty. When I booted with just the power button, I got a screen similar to your first picture with 'ubuntu' on it.

              @marathon2422 Ubuntu uses 8.4 GB on my M10. I have noticed a long boot time on it compared to the Cannonical load. Also, in case I was not clear, this is an M10 Ubuntu Edition vice Android.

                @dbosley looks like you could flash twrp,wipe it and reinstall ubports to get back about 4 gb

                  @dbosley the boot time is fixed about devel r41 or 42, it should come together n the next few days when OTA 3. Is released ( you may need to keep checking,to get it)

                      Marathon2422, I find Twrp for an Aquaris M10 FHD (FreezerFHD) but not for an Aquaris M10 Ubuntu Edition (Meizu). Am I missing something or should the FHD version work here as well? -Thanks in advance. Dave

                              Use bq flash tool to install old UT and when that is flashed succesfully then go for UB installer.

                                @abernator. a small tip,plug up to your PC and have the sound on,when going from the orange state to fastboot,on button and vol up,don't release the vol up,wait for a vibration,then release the on button,and wait for the fastboot screen. It may take a couple of tries,the first attempt may not do anything,( of course you have plenty of battery,even though you are cnnected to the PC ?).
