Focal OTA-2 install fail
@lduboeuf Unsure if this should be in a new post or not - but OnePlus 5T having issues upgrading to OTA-2 Focal
System -> Updates -> version 2 -> install -> restart and install -> reboots the device into recovery mode(available options are reboot or factory reset), doesn't install the update
Edit to add: channel: 20.04 Stable

RE: Ubports installer issue - OP5T
@lakotaubp thanks for this tip! I had to unplug it (as it wouldn't boot to fastboot plugged in) and the installer did indeed continue!
Thanks again -
RE: Ubports installer issue - OP5T
Hi,
I was advised on the github for the installer to try the latest installer to get the firmware working.
The installer had no errors attempting to download the firmware, however when it tries to install the OS the phone turns off. (installer gets to rebooting to bootloader)
Current OS is ubuntu touch, developer mode is enabled & bootloader is still unlocked.
It is recognised in ./adb devices
However the same issue occurs when running ./adb reboot fastboot - the device powers off.Any ideas?
Thanks,
Alex

RE: Ubports installer issue - OP5T
Thank you all for the swift responses!
I will enjoy my new phone - and check the installer every so often to see if the firmware updates are working!

RE: Ubports installer issue - OP5T
After moving to using a mac, the installer ran successfully (it doesn't work with the firmware ticked though!)
So what am I missing without that firmware, and will it be possible to re-install at a later date with that firmware included?
Also is it possible to re-lock the bootloader after installing ubuntu touch, to remove the screen that appears on reboot?
Thanks,
Alex

RE: Ubports installer issue - OP5T
@flohack If I try without ticking the box for the latest firmware, the device reboots to the same bootloader screen which says device state: locked
the ubports installer shows flashing firmware, instead of rebooting device - but nothing appears on the phone apart from the bootloader menu - so I suspect nothing is happening. -
RE: Ubports installer issue - OP5T
sidenote: the .zip it tries to download can be downloaded through a PC, so I'm not sure why the installer can't reach it.

RE: Ubports installer issue - OP5T
@flohack Hi! Thanks for helping out - it previously did have encryption but I did a factory reset in the hopes that it would have cleared that out. I have no real experience with using TWRP, I have been following the progress of ubports via my BQ E4.5 but as that is basically a brick now, I decided I should give it a go on my old OP5T. Do you have a guide/link somewhere to using TWRP to remove the partition? If not, no worries!
Thanks,
Alex
