Recovery is volume up and down at some time. Are you sure you choosed boot partition when flashing boot.img . You can try flash recovery and the boot.img with fastboot. If nothing helps try flashing stock room with miflash.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Samwei14:
Hi,

It is not written specifically in the installation instructions, do I have to install also boot.img after flashing the ununtu touch zip? (I thought I have seen something about boot.img during flash of the zip)

I had RevengeOS 10.0 custom ROM installed, then in TWRP I have just flashed UnuntuTouch zip, then rebooted and was also stuck at the Mi screen without anything happening.

The phone does not boot into recovery just by pressing power+volume up, I used "fastboot boot recovery.img" and I reflashed RevengeOS - but power+volume up+volume down boots into TWRP.

Thank you

---------- Post added at 01:53 ---------- Previous post was at 01:48 ----------

So you flashed both zip and img and still no luck? Have you resolved the problem, does at least your previous ROM work?

Maybe this is not compatible with all of the custom ROMs... in previos posts it seems clean flash helps - I will try official Lineage OS, with flashing both Ununtu zip and boot.img.

Thank you

Hi, look first message :

Dual boot

Make a backup of boot partition in recovery before installing Ubuntu Touch

Then flash Ubuntu Touch zip file

To boot Android restore boot partition backup from recovery

To get back to Ubuntu Touch flash boot.img as boot partition (scroll down for download)
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Samwei14:
Hi, I did exactly that:

1) I have TWRP 3.3.1-0 and latest Lineage OS 16 installed

2) I flash Ubuntu zip without wiping anything - I am stuch at the initial MI logo

3) I tried to flash boot.img on top of that - still no luch, stuck at the initial MI logo

I have backup of Lineage OS, so no problem (just need to carefully press volume up+volume down+power to get to recovery)

but I would like to find out what is the proble and try Ubuntu...

Thank you
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] newbie_or_not_newbie:
Maybe you could try another recovery ? Like Orangefox ?
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] PierceB:
Yes i have exactly the same problem. Go back to LOS 16 does work but Ubuntu does not Boot.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Samwei14:
Hi, I gave it a try. First thing I removed encryption which I thought might cause problems. I moved to PixelExperience 10 and flashed OrangeFox 9.0.

The result is the same, bootloop on the initial screen, OrangeFox even says that no system is installed (TWRP does not warn about this).
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] TomixUGA:
I don't know why but sometimes it doesn't work. I reinstalled Android and then UT booted successfully (Pixel Experience 9.0). Maybe some encryption stuff
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] TomixUGA:
I reinstalled Android (Pixel Experience 9.0) and then it successfully booted. I don't know what's the problem. This method isn't officially supported. I found it myself.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Samwei14:
Thank you, it would be perfect if you could point us where to download exactly the same version of TWRP and Android ROM you used (I downloaded PixelExperience 9.0 from this thread https://t.me/s/r4xchannel?q=#PIXELEXPERIENCE but that one November 2019 is unstable, reboots right after instllation,and installing on top of it did not help...) Thank you

I tried flash of UB Ports.

I have AICP Pie installed. After backing up boot.img of AICP, I only flashed UBports zip. No wipe. It works.
[Xiaomi Redmi 4X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other] Samwei14:
Hi, thank you very much, I can confirm it works with the latest AICP Pie rom - great!

Could someone please tell me which packages to update to get sound and bluetoooth working? Because when I try to update all, something breaks and I am again in bootloop. This is what I did in terminal:

sudo mount -o remount,rw /

sudo touch /userdata/.writable_image

sudo apt update

sudo apt upgrade

it updates many packages, first time the configuration froze at some 55%, second time I updated keyboards separately as that was the point where it hang, but then again dpkg exited with code 1 when installing some lxc-android package (attached image)... after reboot ubuntu did not boot, so I have to do all again. Also would be perfect if I coudld ssh to the phone, but was not successful - it is enough that computer and phone are on the same wifi? Computer could not see the phone.

Thank you and sorry for the long post, at least it is booting now and I can test :)

You can try formatting whole data partition. In TWRP click wipe and then click format data. This should also remove any encryption and will (obviously) remove all your data.

Hi there!

I populate also this santoni-specific thread with the same Question in case someone wish to reply to my Theoretical misunderstandings on Halium-UT/ubports...

I don't know if erfanoabdi is still available for comments but I'd like to raise a theoretical question cos I'm confused with the UT/halium flashing...

It doesn't matter my devices (for test-bed I'll use a santoni/Redmi 4x) but for me as a non-expert it matters to understand better the process theoretically. I mean, some managed to Dual Boot santoni (android/UT) so it makes me wonder how/where halium-boot, rootfs and/or Ubuntu Touch GSI are flashed to? (see attached pictures)

As far as I understand, I flash halium-boot.img into "boot" partition.

That's perfect and this makes sense for the Dual Boot trick, later...

BUT!

Where does the rest of stuff get flashed into??

I am totally confused (because of lack of knowledge) with 2 different files for flashing (after the 1st step of halium-boot.img flashing):

One "halium_halium_arm64_Halium 9 LXC_GSI-rootfs.tar.xz" (~150MB) file that contains only one android-rootfs.img file (OK, I will extract & flash it...) but which partition will it populate?!

I think that it will create a "UT system partition" inside my "Internal Storage"' 's 28 GB (santoni).

Only this makes sense for a later Dual Booting, because this way the existing Android /system partition remains intact for the Dual Booting... Correct?!

Next, there is also another file for my santoni ("ubuntu-touch-android9-arm64_HALIUM-9.tar.gz" ~580MB) containing a full Linux system tree (android, bin, boot, debian, ... tmp, userdata, usr & var folders) probably ready for flashing somewhere, but where & how??

This is my theoretical question...!

Probably there are 2 different methods for flashing either of these 2 tar files and this is what I cannot grasp!

Has it something to do with the 2 different halium 7.1 and 9.0 flash methods

? Here me be confused as well...

I attach 3 images, 2 for the dual boot and the 3rd is my source for "halium_halium_arm64_Halium 9 LXC_GSI-rootfs.tar.xz" download for santoni, together with "halium-boot.img" and halium-UNLOCKED-recovery.img....

(I did manage to Treble-ize my santoni with LOS 16.1

and thus populate my /vendor partition with Oreo 8.1 stuff as a "BASE" needed for Halium 7.1 install

. Correct??!

I can do it with a HavocOS install to step to Android 9.1

and thus populate my /vendor partition with Pie 9.1 stuff as a "BASE" needed for Halium 9.1 install

. Correct??! )

But I'd just wish a "theoretical" reply and I'll try to answer the less important "rest"...

Thanks in advance!!!

Hi, everyone.

So I've flashed the RR rom with magisk and OpenGApps on my Z2 play. Everything was working fine, but a week ago I experienced some kind of glitch. When I'm receiving a call the phone vibrates, but I can't pick the call up because it is not showing up anywhere. Similar with outgoing calls, once I press "call", the phone gives out dialing tone, but is still in contacts section without anything in notification bar. Could anyone help? This is really getting on my nerves, because I can neither pick up nor drop calls, not even talking about other things (speaker, mute, keypad etc.)

Thanks in advance

Hello everyone

I found way how to get custom fonts (text style) on Huawei Y7 2019 without root

Only you need to do is to install this apk (also you can download this APK directly from XDA):

https://mega.nz/#!9mpVjRjI!eE3wLnE2hdw7vg5fuENHDzpcM38aEfh-XiW1WAFMo1Y

NOTE: Before installation you must enable unknown sources

After installation, open it and click on "Enable" button and restart your device

(You can uninstall this app after enabling fonts :D, but i do not recommend uninstalling)

For fonts you can search in Themes application or you can find some good fonts on this link:

https://xdaforums.com/mate-8/themes-apps/noroot-font-styles-updated-02-09-16-t3453559/page9

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] Frick_trump:
You can factory reset without losing data. Flash latest rom using home_csc and you will retain your settings and apps .

If that doesn't fix it, then do the same but flash regular csc which will wipe data and settings.

Games, apps, ECT are mainly all cloud based now anyways. The only things that you need to manually setup are device specific settings really. If you have a problem but aren't willing to do troubleshooting then there's nothing anyone can really do.

Alternatively, enable developer settings and verify your settings matches the one I highlighted in red. That may help.
