Hi

Some days back I was reflashing on M10 and faced same issue. "waiting for
recovery"
This happens because in production devices adb is disabled.
Solution is that you need to provide recovery images together with
ubuntu-device-flash.
May be you need to give --bootstrap also.

Recovery image for particular M10 device can be downloaded from here
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Devices
and then you can use full command  with recovery image as (plz Adjust
command accoroding to device)
ubuntu-device-flash touch --channel ubuntu-touch/stable/bq-aquaris.en
--bootstrap --recovery-image ./recovery.img

Thanks. Tried the tool, doesn't work. Will try ssh, though from memory
setting it up without adb is a pain. Is there another adb enabled recovery
I can flash?

Hi,

I think you need an adb enabled recovery. You can try this, it might get
that for you and just works:
https://github.com/MariusQuabeck/magic-device-tool

If it doesn't, another option is to ssh/adb into the device and use
system-image-cli to reflash. Check out --help, you'll want the --switch
option and I'd recommend to use -vv so that the tool prints something
instead of just appearing to do nothing for a while.


Hope this helps,
Michael

Hi, tried the Staging channel out of curiosity, and am now returning my
M10 back to re-proposed. Only now I'm unable to access adb through
enabling developer mode. Have rebooted to bootloader, and am trying to
reflash using fastboot. Everything seems to work, until the device boots
into the recovery, and my computer is no longer able to recognise it.
Just hangs at: "Waiting for device to enter recovery mode..."

Device is in recovery mode, but not recognised. Eventually the
ubuntu-device-flash tool times out. When I reboot my device I'm back
where I started.

How do I reflash back to rc-proposed?

Thanks,

Mitchell
