State of the UBports installer, or command line

  • Connect the phone to your computer via USB and boot it into Fastboot mode
  • Download @Ingo’s flash_ubports_fp2.zip …
  • Extract the contents to a directory where you can find them
  • Open a command line and change into this directory
  • Make sure fastboot devices works at this stage (i.e. doesn’t just return an empty line)
  • Open the file flash_ubports_fp2.sh (the Linux shell script) in a text editor
  • Copy or write every line in the script which begins with “fastboot” into the command line and execute them
    For Windows change every “/” in directory paths to “\
  • Reboot the phone into recovery mode (should be the UBports recovery then)
  • Copy or write every line in the script which begins with “adb push” into the command line and execute them
    For Windows change every “/” in directory paths to “\
  • Execute adb reboot recovery
  • The phone should reboot and install UBports then.

Done (if no errors come up).
