It's a pity this is such a problem. The ability to run linux was the only reason I bought the phone. Yes, #metoo I've had a chance do some more testing but, like most of you, I get only as far as the Grey Screen of Death. I've tried two cards, with the GPT boot partition created on linux, and the r...

Did you try your SD cards only in the phone? Might be a good idea to use a PC, preferably a Linux PC, to reformat the SD card. I have done that but the problem remains with a new sd card. The issue is that somewhere the x23 is persisting sd card install data between factory resets. Where can it be ...

Confirmed regarding the sd card issue. I now have that also

Did you try your SD cards only in the phone? Might be a good idea to use a PC, preferably a Linux PC, to reformat the SD card.

I did have to reboot the Volla OS after creating the system-data storage partition and then create the user-data and reboot again before attempting to install otherwise it fails.

Thank you!!

Same issue. Also now the phone refuses to recognise the SD card (tried two now). Also two factory resets. The used SD cards were re-formatted as well, but the ROM installer and storage manager refuses to see them. Can one of the volla support people please reply? There are many issues that get no a...

Hi - I'm having issues installing UT (Ubuntu Touch). X23 - updated to the latest VOS 12.1. It took 3 hours to download and install the update. I tried 4 times and on the 4th time it actually worked. I then tried to install UT via the boot manager. Please see the attached pics. vos2.jpg vos3.jpg http...

I can't wait also
