XDA Developers: [TUTORIAL] Unlock the bootloader of Meizu PRO 5
XDA Developers: [RECOVERY][M86][UNOFFICIAL] TWRP 3.0 for Meizu PRO
Read these 3 articles about Ubuntu Touch
Meizu pro 5 is named turbo.
Install ubuntu with TWRP(Android edition's kernel):
Download the ROM you need.
You can show images use
ubuntu-device-flash query --device=turbo --channel=ubuntu-touch/stable/meizu.en --show-image
Download the kernel-OTA-10.2.zip
which I packaged here for OTA 10.2.
CAUTION: If you want to install other version then OTA 10.2. you need to replace 4 files in the above kernel*.zip
from the device*.tar.xz
file you had downloaded. boot.img
, dtb
and logo.bin
are in partitions folder, ldfw
is in blobs. DO NOT FLASH bootloader and recovery! (meaning do not put these files into the above kernel*.zip
file)
Enter to recovery mode (TWRP) by pressing the volume up + down + power buttons for 5 seconds.
In TWRP wipe data,cache,system.
In TWRP install kernel-OTA-10.2.zip
(with the replaced boot.img
, dtb
, logo.bin
, ldfw
)
In TWRP mount the system
partition (remove the readonly mode).
In TWRP run commands below in terminal:
cd /
tar -xf /external_sd/ubuntu*.tar.xz
tar -xf /external_sd/device*.tar.xz
tar -xf /external_sd/custom*.tar.xz
tar -xf /external_sd/version*.tar.xz
sync
Reboot to system.
Notes:
It may not get OTA updates without a recovery provide by Ubuntu edition.
You can do all the steps above without external sd card, the mobile can be seen all the time through usb.
