Upgrading OTA-9 manually via local server

 

Hi team:

Thanks for your great work!

I am running ubuntu phone version 26 (OTA 8.5?) in my Nexus 4. The OTA-9
notification is not showing in settings/updates yet.

I am trying to upgrade the new version manually using the
ubuntu-device-flash command; like this:
ubuntu-device-flash --server=http://localhost/my-touch-mirror touch
--channel=ubuntu-touch/stable/ubuntu

However, the flashing process is reporting error pushing. 

Once it is shown this message:
[...] error pushing: error: protocol fault (no status)

Other it is shown the same error but without description. Like this:
[...] error pushing:

I am using a local server because my connection is outrageously slow.
So, I check the json files  from system-image.ubuntu.com and detect the
necessary files to update or install. Then, I download these files using
an corporative connection (only needed files). Oh yes! it is a
complicate invention. :-) but it is the unique solution for install
ubuntu in my phone using a very slow connection.

I always use the install process (using -bootstrap from bootloader) and
it was work successfully for me. It is my first try to upgrade my system
using the ubuntu-device-flash command.

Notes about my PC system:
1- Ubuntu 14.04 (recently updated).
2- adb version: Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.31.
3- ubuntu-device-flash: 0.19-0~142~ubuntu14.04.1
4- phablet-tools: 1.2+14.04.20151103-0ubuntu1

Best regards...
