Re: Custom system-image server for Nexus 5

 

Hi,

I  installed Ubuntu Touch on Nexus 5 via Multiboot yesterday. Its working.
I installed image 218.  The system boots up nicely and I am able to make
calls as well.  Incoming calls are not working. I cannot hear anyone over
the phone but internet, wifi , 2G and 3G are working.

Regards,

*Sayantan Das*
