@tigerpro a how to will be a cool thing, i will wait for it

@totalsonic it sounds good, i often read that the GS290 is very similar to the VollaPhone, i called "him" and ask when it is available, the answer was werid "... i waiting for Parts for the VollaPhone to build it" what for Parts ? i think he buy a bunch "GS290" with Volla Phone" logo ... and press some UbuntuTouch on it ... and want to have about 360 euros for it ... the normal customer have to pay about 160 euro for a GS290, and the Volla Phone costs about 360 euro ... that the same if i take a picece toilettpaper for one euro, paint it and sell it for 3 euro ... i think THATS no fair

@flohack

i will say Ubuntu = Linux = Free for everyone ... thats the first Point, the People in that community do a very great work, every day if they have time for it ... and don want to have ONE CENT for they work.

Thats the first one.

The Next, is i firstly give my money to support this community befor i give someone to much money for using a little trick, bring UT on a GS290.

So the last Point is,

wich Guy is faster to get 100 Euro in his Pocket ? ... the one who asks 1000 People for 100 Euro, or this one who asks 1000 People for 1 Euro ?

The Volla Phone ist to expensive, with a free software port ?! ... and they pay a other price for such a Phone so they can easy sell it for 200-250 bugs ... so MORE People Buy that thing, and more money will come in ... but 359 Euro for a phone wit a manufacture price from about 60 Dollar of the piece ... + little trick + free Software ... this Company will never rise up i would say.

Question ? Whatś Fair ?

Gigaset GS290 made in Germany with Android 10 for 169 Euro

VollaPhone GS290 made in Germany with Ubuntu 360 Euro ? so they will make money with the work from your community about 200 BUGS ... for a FREE open source software ???

I would say "pull the stick out of ya asses" and see the dam TRUE ...

@lakotaubp you can eread it in the /e/ Forum in den UB Ports Forum there are many people they don´t think about it ... and say something about "NOT FAIR for Hallo Welt GmbH for theyr work" to install UB on a GS290 ... Hallo Welt GmbH had a reason why they change the Vendor ... because that will be NOT so easy to install UB on a GS290 ... to make Money ... today all is making FOR Money ... that a thing we should be fight against it ... thats a free open source Software not exist to make extra money ... why anybody don´t want to understand that ?

And another FACT Yes the VollaPhone hardware ist absolut identical to the Gigaset GS290

@cmuc dont know how much i can say but yes i use the SP Flasher for it ... may be the HELPER, can send intrested people a lil link ...

it will not be fair to the Helper IF i earn the honor for that ^ xD

@keneda xD i konw, but i will Sell this new phone again ... i only want to know that it is possible to install UT on a GS290 ... i had help, but IF you know the steps itś realy simple ...

The Hardware is the same, there is a little tricky with the software ... a rookie like me CAN NOT see this and will brick that thing

Now i have my Galaxy S9+ with /e/ OS ... next step i will install Ubuntu Touch on it ... and the next step ... i will try to run AnBox on it ... there are som Android-Apps i realy need ...
( Whatsapp / Bankingapp ) ^

@odo Yes ist does, you can update what you want ... apps, software, secure ... it starts and have the Volla Logo ...

i bet, a "original" VollaPhone has the same "GS290" in SN

@tomcic81 So finaly it works, have now Ubuntu Touch on my GS290 ... so im happy now ...

Thank You to the "anonym" Helper ...

a fact is, "Hallo Welt" can sure sell they high extreme special "Volla Phone" for 359 Euro ... but IF ... then with his one an only "Volla OS" but UT is "FREE" for everyone ... so the Phone with "Ubuntu Touch" should cost absout 200 Euro ... then i would buy such a Phone just right now ... IF it is available ^ xD

What ever, i think such a forum is just for that Point THAT the user can try to flash his old or new phone with a rom of his own choice ... the possibility that he is bricking his phone, i think every one who will flash a phone will know it before that it could be bricked.

anyway, a warning about a brick, dont will be a wrong thing ^ xD
