Hello
I'm Stevie, thank you for the welcome.
I have successfully installed Ubuntu touch to my BQ M10 FHD using the ubports installer and after trying it out for a few weeks i decided to put it on a Nexus 5. installation was easy, worked first time. at the moment I'm denied access to my mobile phone network carrier, Three in the UK. I'm inclined to believe it's a carrier issue rather than the phone or Ubunu Touch.
