Hi,

I also got my Meizu Pro 5 Ubuntu Edition a couple of days ago, and even I expected it to be not-so-polished, I couldn't believe the number of features missing and the number of unresolved bugs. :( Being a long-term Linux/Ubuntu user I will (from now on) closely watch the development process, but meanwhile I would like to use my new phone.

If you make it to flash Flyme, please share the full process.

It would be great if we could go back-and-forth Android/Ubuntu to check the progress from time to time (as Nexus can)

[Meizu Pro 5 Questions & Answers] Toroman:
I somehow thought that we can use official Flyme download from the Meizu website and the official Ubuntu turbo image without the need of installing TWRP or anything - and flash both via USB.

Functionality with TWRP would be a plus.
[Meizu Pro 5 Questions & Answers] Pleytos:
Well I think you can. Press both Volume up + power button, that's the stock recovery where you can flash images from meizu. So you probably can get Flyme when you have Ubuntu, but when you want to go back I think you'll have to flash the ubuntu turbo recovery back through fastboot. I think you can go without TWRP.
[Meizu Pro 5 Questions & Answers] Toroman:
Well the power + up gives (a kind of) recovery that shows a screen with the Ubuntu logo in the center - nothing else. I believe the android version has a different recovery?
[Meizu Pro 5 Questions & Answers] Pleytos:
Ah I never saw that screen. Yes Android/Flyme has a different screen: like this

You can try to to use the Ubuntu recovery to flash a Flyme Rom. I did it with TWRP, but never tried it with the Ubuntu recovery.

The Flyme Rom replaces the recovery and boots with both TWRP and the Flyme recovery, maybe even with a Ubuntu recovery (I can't image it to be that different.).

Edit:

You might want to back up your current recovery. I just flashed the recovery from Canonicals website, and its just the English/Chinese Flyme one.
[Meizu Pro 5 Questions & Answers] mobilezonerm:
just a moment... thank's Pleytos, but we need the TWRP backup folder... on yours link there are the CM rom and on the Canonica site there are only the update.zip....

Keep in mind, also the partitons are different on Pro 5 Ubuntu, for this the best is to have the entire backup of an android phone, both CM rom and Update.zip are not flashable by TWRP (i have try)

and Toroman the recovery that you see is the original recovery, if you flash the recovery on Canonical website you have the screen posted by Pleytos BUT with this recovery you obtain only the unlock of ADB in recovery and, as you can read from the screenshoot to make an update you have to put a "update.zip" on root directory of the phone that, unfortunally in ubuntu edition, is read-only file system... i have just unlock it from linux terminal with a "remount,rw" but if you try to copy update.zip (many versions) to root fonder there aren't space enough...

I've make lot of try in this day and i have find two possible solutions:

- flash a rom with MultiUpgrade 4.8.5 (official software used by Meizu, that not start because some token is missing)

as reported in a big russian forum

- make a total erase of internal memory and rewrite it with a image from android Pro 5 phone (TWRP Backup)
[Meizu Pro 5 Questions & Answers] mobilezonerm:
Pleytos, one answer, wich room have you flash via TWRP? (both Ciano and Flyme, wich version)
[Meizu Pro 5 Questions & Answers] mobilezonerm:
All done... guide in details:

- on windows install driver: Samsung_USB_Drivers_for_Mobile_Phones_1.5.9.0

- on linux: run from terminal "$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-sdk-team/ppa" and "$ sudo apt-get install phablet-tools"

- download from here (http://people.canonical.com/~plars/touch/recovery-turbo.img) the recovery image with unlocked ADB

- turn off the phone and turn on with volume down pressed to enter in fastboot mode

- in windows go to the folder where you have fastboot / in linux open the terminal and give "sudo -s"

- make a flash of recovery (fastboot flash recovery recovery-turbo.img)

- now download the TWRP recovery (i've used the 3.0.0 on this forum) and from terminal flash it (fastboot flash recovery "nomerecovery")

- now you have to copy first a CM rom on the phone or sd, before flash the CM rom erase completely the system partition, flash it whit TWRP and only after you are able to flash Flyme rom

keep in mind to make a full backup by TWRP and save it on external archive before operate. (it's less complicate for future restore and help you if something goes wrong)

if someone need the backup of Ubuntu for his phone, ask me...

Need you help

can any one help me remotely to install android on miuze pro 5 which coming with Ubuntu , i download every thing but lost with steps, or can you provide clear steps so i can follow
[Meizu Pro 5 Questions & Answers] Pleytos:
Hi! I flashed CyanogenMod 12.1 from Faust93, AICP 12.1 Rom from Faust93, and Flyme 5.1.6.0G & Flyme 5.1.5.0G via TWRP, It worked for me. I haven't been able to go back to Ubuntu though. Ubuntu-device flash doesn't work for me.

I can also flash Flyme with the standard recovery/ Canonical recovery by putting it on /sdcard/

Yes I can help you, are you running Ubuntu on your PC or Windows?

Before flashing Android, could you maybe help me with getting some Ubuntu files back? I can also help you through a chat or something if that is easier. Never mind I finally did it!I can still help you though, if you need me :)

Hi , Am running Ubuntu over windows ( virtual box ) we can go with team viewer , or if you want i can install Ubuntu in separate machine , Please let me know how we can communicate
[Meizu Pro 5 Questions & Answers] Toroman:
Hi,

I've been away for some time, and I can see some nice progress in making Android work on the Ubuntu edition.

I might be repeating myself :) but it would be ideal if we (who own the Ubuntu edition) can go back and forth seamlessly. Unfortunately my flashing skills are buried in the ancient time of the HTC HD2 :) so I need some assistance (as probably more of us do). Here are some questions, I appreciate the effort and the help (assume I'm using Ubuntu on the desktop) (if something is easier in windows - please note). This would be a full circle:

1 Is it possible and how to make a COMPLETE backup of the Ubuntu edition phone (including the recovery and everything) to be able to get back to the factory condition (and using what tools/steps). I think I have read somewhere that OTA updates does not work with custom recovery or something similar.

2 after making the backup from question 1 - assume flashing official flyme to make it like a factory android device. (orig.recovery, OTA and so)

3 flash ubuntu back using backup provided with one.

I guess the ubuntu edition has the bootloader unlocked factory default.

Info on flashing CM or similar can than be like flashing it on original android - assuming (2) is working

As already said, just a remainder - Ubuntu recovery screen that came with the original phone is just ubuntu logo on the center on the screen - I don't know if it is important for any feature (OTA or something)

Best regards!

[Meizu Pro 5 Questions & Answers] alienflorina:
Actually this is most interesting! I would love to buy this phone, ubuntu edition. But since it would be my primary device and ubuntu touch not quite there yet, I'm not. That page about dual boot seems outdated though. And it is about nexus devices

Being able to have dual boot with android or even as someone said above have a back up and every 2 months restore ubuntu and check the progress would be great.

[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndroidFL:
So i have several questions:

1. Will my KNOX be tripped if i flash a stock rom from sammobile with Odin.(Ive read that it wont be but just asking to be sure)

2. What will happen if i flash a rom from a different country than mine, for example i an on LP 5.1.1 Romania and i want to flash MM from Poland or Russia?
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ithehappy:
1- I am not entirely sure about that! I think KNOX will be tripped if Odin is used, but I am not 100% sure.

2- You can flash any ROM you want.
[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vincehoo:
1. No, i've done that before. It wont trip if you flash STOCK ROM from Samsung. People done that normally to format their device, or try new updates that have not been roll out in their countries. However, if you root, flash custom recovery and all those stuffs that involved modification, it will probably trip knox counter.

2. It shouldnt have any problem. But bear in mind those roms are normally "localized" based on their country, from my experience.

Hope these help.

seems like u have FLASHED wrong kernels, what are your Exact devices? E6xxx ?

tell me your devices , so that i can guide u better

when you downloaded latest FTF, why did u extract? there is not such need!

download full ftf file via FLASHTOOL ! / the last button on flashtool menu is Xperifirm , click it, select your DEVICE MODEL (accurately) from LEFTSIDE menu, then on the rightside, download LATEST rom as per your country (if country is not listed then Central USA / Europe , or MENA Arabic also) will do just fine.

after FLASHTOOL download and prepare your ftf file, connect your device in FLASH MODE and FLASH this rom (wipe data/kernel/system/setting/userdata ALL)

NOW --------------- since you have BRICKED/ bootloop fone try this

PRESS POWER+VOLUME up key for 5 seconds --- AS SOON AS FONE VIBRATE - RELEASE FINGERS INSTANTLY!!!!

if it restarts and goes in to boot loops then

PRESS POWER BUTTON + VOLUM UP KEY FOR 15 SECONDS --- THE FONE WILL VIBRATE 3 TIMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHILE ITS VIBRATING SECOND TIME, RELEASE YOUR FINGERS AT ONCE!!!

THE device will sleep.

now try connection your device for flashing in flash mode for FLASHTOOL

this trick / methods is tested by me for xperia z (older device),

tell me what happens with your z5 plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

but after installing supersu it faced softbrick and didn't boot so I tried to flash stock .253 tft file which i had downloaded from other sources , with flash tools but it stuck on modem.sin and i have to brought it to the shop to have it recover by box .its not the first time i'm facing the problem with flash tools , it always stock on one step for about an hour, the time before the last, i was trying to update it by flash tools and it stucked again.the xperia companion isn't working either -_- it says that it cant connect to network to find the update ! i checked the firewall and internet explorer internet options tab , but nothing worked for me ! my flash tools version is 0.9.22.0 build on 16-5-2016 . the last time i tried 0.9.18 version cause i saw somewhere that maybe the problem is related to new version but it didn't worked again, at the end what i think is that there should be zip flashing method from custom or stock recovery for flashing stock Roms too ! flash tools sucks in my case -_-

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] Rohan390:
Hi everyone.

First I would like to tell you about the device I am using :

Name : Redmi Note 3 (Snapdragon variant, 3GB RAM)

MIUI Version : MIUI Global 7.3 | Stable 7.3.2.0

Android Version : 5.1.1

Now here's the problem :

I have installed Modern Combat 4 (MC4) on my phone and I tried installing Nova 3 Freedom edition from Play Store. After the download is 100% complete the installation starts but Playstore shows error 505 (I tried downloading from playstore twice and failed both times)

I downloaded apk file of Nova 3 from other websites, the installation still failed.

But when I removed MC4 from my phone and tried installing the Nova 3 apk I was able to install the app.

Then I tried reinstalling MC4 and this time MC4 couldn't be installed (same error). After removing Nova 3 I was again able to install MC4.

Then I tried installing another game from gameloft, Blitz Brigade. Again I encountered the same error.

This error is specific to just gameloft games in my case and I have no trouble installing apps from any other developer.

In short, I am not able to install more than one game from gameloft on my phone. Don't know what could be the reason behind it.

i(dot)imgur(dot)com/tF1ZrP8.jpg

I tried on another Redmi Note 3 and I encountered the same error on that phone as well.

I have tried factory resetting and rebooting the phone.

I think I will have to reflash the rom on the phone.

If you have any suggestions or solutions for this problem please post them below. Thanks in advance ;)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers] gowar7:
FOR ALL THAT HAS THE SAME PROBLEM:

This will WORK 100% for gameloft games that cant install in some of the xiaomi devices

Step:

1. Install lucky patcher on your phone and open the app

2. Then select rebuild and install in the bottom of the showing app

3. Go to your .apk file directory then select "rebuild"

4. Select "Apk with changed permission and activities"

5. Wait for a few minutes for the apk to rebuild

6. Then go to com.android.vending.billing.InAppBillingService.LOCK/files/LuckyPatcher/Modified and search for your rebuilded .apk file

7. Finally, just install your .apk file

I did this method on my Redmi Note 4X MTK, i was too getting this problem of installing amazing spiderman 2 apk in my device. But after i uninstall my gangstar vegas, spiderman 2 apk installed without any problems same as you.

The program that calls up the dialpad is phonedialer.exe. It's already in the \windows directory.

By the way, what steps does one take on these devices to create a shortcut?

Figured it out - made a shortcut, pasted it into \Windows\Start Menu\Programs and then could assign a button to it.
