    • Install on Nexus 4 wit 16.04 ota-25

      I purchased a nexus 4 with Ubuntu 15.4 installed just to have a ply ( only £24 ) . To my great surprise I plugged it in to the UBports Installer ().9.7) and it recognized the phone and updated the OS to 16.04 ota-25. I post here for two reasons

      1. say a big thanks
      2. just to say at the end of the install the request for feedback pops up so quick I did not have time to tread the screen that says that the phone is updating so I hit dismiss so I could see the instructions. So I'm giving feed back here.

      Again thank to all.

    • Pixel 3a install boots to fast boot then to UBport Recovery

      Hello I am trying to install Ubuntu Touch 20.o4 stable from the UBports installer on a pixel 3a. The device state is unlocked. The loader asks for the phone to be set in recovery mode. Which I do the installer says that it is pushing file to phone and then says successfully installed. The device appears to be performing reaming steps ( three joined circle icons ) then it goes to google screen and then to UBports Recovery. I have tried Reboot. But it still comes back to the UBports recovery. I have repeated the install multiple times. I have tried to find other posts on the forum ( I am new so I don't know my way round fully ) for similar examples. Any help would be much appreciated. I nave Ubuntu touch 16 working on a Nexus 2 and I am very pleased with it. I picked up the 3a recently and was keen to install 20.04.
      All the best and thanks in advance Ric

      @MrT10001 Thanks. Likewise I don't have a real use for GPS on my phone use it but its just compleatness , you now how it is. So I will whip the back off and have a try.
      So this is all a bit of a first with me. As I said above first time user and I am just so impressed. Also I have never interacted witha forum before as the look so toxic. This look like a good place to "hang out". Thanks again. Im now off for a deep dive in to the documentaion

      @MrT10001 Just saw your interesting posts on the question of upgrading to focal. You obviously "know where you towel is " so do you mind if I ask you a question about the Nexus 4 ( like you I love the size and quality ) The gps does not appear to be working. Its not a problem as it does everything I want in a phone but I am curious as to if this is just something that is not implemented with Xenial on the Nexus 4? If it is "me" not the distro then I did read, while skimming the forums ( it could well have been you ), that cleaning the inside of the back can be a fix. Hope you don't mid me asking.
      All best
