@uamoti said in Ubuntu Touch won't install on Oneplus One. Apparently successful install won't boot up.:

Hi,
I'm having the same issue.
Coming from LineageOS 16, I tried the snap installer without success. It kept complaining that the connection was lost and I should check the cables. Despite that, it did change the system because I was left with a boot loop showing the UBports logo. By pressing volume down + power I can get to UBports recovery, although I'm not sure what to do with that. I thought of trying to push the UBports zip to the mobile and use the recovery option to install from it.
A bit like you, the installation was successful when I used the deb installer, probably due to snap permissions. Despite the message that it was successful, the boot loop goes on.

Follow up: I was able to successfully install the system. Following a tip from the Telegram group, I flashed TWRP and wiped cache, dalvik, etc. After that, I installed UT using the AppImage installer and could start using the system.

@penguining Hi,
I'm glad you got it working.
I just wanted to add that I had a similar experience, but without a happy ending. I've had different experiences depending on the installation source; from best to worst it was: AppImage, deb package and snap package.
As with you, the AppImage recognised everything and installed successfully; at least that's what the message says. The deb was similar but couldn't recognise the device initially. The snap did not work at all: didn't recognise, kept complaining of lost connection to the device and no message of successful installation.
Also, volume up + power never worked for me, only volume down + power.
So at the moment I'm stuck with the UBports recovery screen.

Cheers!
