For those who are still wondering about how to reinstall android after UT, here are some hints for you:

1. Check the usb-c cable. They may differ very much. In my case I had 3 very good ones… one from Samsung and two from Realme which I have bought on ali. To my surprise only one of them worked properly. I have no idea why. However, all of them work great for datatransfer and charging on all devices.
2. Install all 3 Android USB-drivers which are attached to the package archive like you can see on
3. If you are flashing through Android Flash Tool and get stuck at the installation process with “In Process” pending forever you should unplug your device and press a power button to switch it to the then reconnect it on the chrome browser page and it should start working from then.

If I'm flashing it via android flash tool it will recognize the device but on that last step it won't be flashing it... I have attached a screenshot in the first message.

@MrT10001 Thanks for your reply.

What do you mean to not lock the bootloader? for some reason the phone just doesn't respond to adb commands through cmd :((
I also tried to find a guide or a video on youtube how to do that, but just could not. There are 99999 videos about how to install UT and literally almost none about how to get back to android...

if I try to start flashing going from fastboot (fastboot mood on a phone with a red exclamation mark) my PC and the adnroid flash tool just won't see my device "No devices available".

Hi ti everyone!

I wanted to install android back on my pixel 3a XL but for some reason it just doesn't work. I am trying to flash it using a standart chrome android flash tool and on the last step it just get stuck forever at "prepearing your device - in progress" . Nothing happends then on the phone screen as well.

I have tried all the cables which I have at home but it seems that the problem is somewhere else, as they all work fine. Probably I need a specisl google pixel brand cable, I dont have the one which was in the box. I don't know
Do you guys probably know what a problem here might be?

ps I have also enabled "developer mode" in the settings, didn't help either...

thanks in advance!

Hi to everyone

could you please tell me if it's possible to see your own phone number anyware on the os? on the settings section for example?
cannot find any information about that.

Thanks in advance!

Hi guys!

I've just installed UT os but cannot even use open store it just loading forever:(

Is it a problem on my side or a server side ?

Has anyone ever encountered such problem?

Thanks in advance!

UPDATE: problem solved by rebooting the device

@kugiigi said in Have you tried other alternative OS systems ?:

@UTdroid Security is such a broad word. Technically, UT isn't the most secured OS out there. It tries its best but it's not its main priority. It doesn't even support locking the bootloader yet in any device as far as I know and also has no support for disk encryption. These means in essence, UT is actually not secured from physical access hacking While in terms of privacy, UT makes a conscious effort to not violate your privacy however it also lacks basic "privacy" features by default such as adblockers and support for some VPN.

It's nice that you choose UT but I think it's also important to know what it really is currently so you can decide accordingly

wow... I have just googled it and was quite surprised that a linux based OS doesn't have basic privacy instruments like disc and file encryption oO

Do you know if there are any plans of introducing such features later on in the upcoming versions? I have found that this question is being asked by the members of the community since 2015 haha...

@MrT10001 I have switched to this OS personally to increase my security isn't it the main issue with commercial OSs like IOS and Android ? even my wifi router has linux installed on it hahah

Hi guys!

I am new to the community

just wondering if anyone have tried any other alternative OS except for UT? for example grapheneOS or Linage or anything alike?

Are there any benefits in terms of security and resistance to hacking? any pros or cons in usage?

thanks!_)

@Moem thanks for your hint

Hi guys, I have just bought a suitable device to install UT finally !!!!!!

before that I wanted to ask you guys how do you actually install apps on this OS? I know that there is something like play store with free apps. But is it also possible to install usual apk files like I used to do on android?

for example I need telegram, office etc some apps which I easily cloud install on android, will I be able to install the same apps on UT after I install it?

thanks in advance ! and sorry for my nubby questions haha

@Keneda ohhh unfortunately I cannot find these devices on the market in my country:( probably have to buy something like OnePlus 6t

Ps I really like this forum and the engin it's powered buy

PS2: thanks for the list with supported devices, for some reason Google didn't show it when I was looking

@arubislander thanks for your advise! But not all devices support this OS right? Is there some kind of a table where I can see all devises which can run on UT OS ?

Tanks!:)

Hi guys !

I am going to buy a phone specially to use it only with UT OS. Could you please tell me is there any preferences among available smartphones on the market? Which models tend to have less glitches, problems with this OS?

Sorry for my probably stupid question, I'm new to this topic

Thanks in advance!
