    • RE: Xiaomi Redmi 4X (santoni)

      Is the port still under active development? I'm thinking about buying this phone and if the port is abandoned please tell me so I can buy something like Redmi 6 instead.

      @Lakotaubp Are you sure? @Flohack says I should unlock it myself.

      @Flohack Alright not a problem. I've researched and unlocking OnePlus One's bootloader is relatively simple.

    • Is it necessary to unlock the bootloader before flashing the OS?

      Hello! I haven't got my OnePlus One yet (it will be a while). But I want to ask now so I wouldn't have to wait for the response after I get my phone. Is it necessary for me to unlock the bootloader? Or will the installer do it for me?

      In what ways does it make porting easier? It still seems pretty hard.

    • RE: Ubuntu Touch devices list on the website has some missing / false info.

      @Lakotaubp Okay you have good points. In that case let's just put these phones to a "in development" or "incompelete devices" category and state that those versions aren't ready for daily use and should be used only by developers and testers. That might be helpful. Also the devices that are fully working are listed in promoted devices category. So list DOES include devices that aren't ready (that's what the site says anyway).

      @dobey I replied to you. Maybe you are right. I can't say for sure since I don't have the phone.

      @Stefano You are right but than again, avarage Joe wouldn't install UT in the first place (I think anyway, I might be wrong).

    • RE: Ubuntu Touch devices list on the website has some missing / false info.

      @Lakotaubp It wouldn't be hard to put a Beta, Alpha or Upcoming label to them. Imagine having a OnePlus 3, downgrading it to 1 in order to use Ubuntu Touch only to find out that there already was a port in development for 3 and you could've just kept your previous phone. Congratulations you replaced your phone with an inferior product for nothing!
      As for MX4 according to my research there is a program called TowelRoot that can root it. You can unlock Pro 5 with ADB.

      Are you sure? Because comments section is full of people who claim that they've managed to install Ubuntu Touch on their phones.

    • Ubuntu Touch devices list on the website has some missing / false info.

      Nothing major but it seems like it wasn't updated in a while.
      Firstly some devices that are compatible are not listed even tho some of them are even on the offical installer (OnePlus 3(T) and Sony Xperia X). Yes they aren't as mature as older ports and they don't seem like they are ready to be used as daily drivers but they are there and progress is being made. We should put them on to the list and on the comments part we should write that they are on beta (or maybe alpha).

      Secondly the devices list mentions that user must have the Ubuntu editions of Meizu devices because their Bootloader cannot be unlocked. That's false. I went online and checked and found out that there are tutorials for unlocking the bootloaders of the Meizu devices.
