How to install Ubuntu Touch OS

You can install Ubuntu Touch on this device using the UBports Installer on your computer.

Make sure your device is unlocked and the required Android version is installed, follow the device-specific instructions below:

Please double-check that your device is a Sony Xperia X (F5121 or F5122).
In case you later wish to return to factory state, you will have to back up your TA partition before unlocking the bootloader. You can't do this step at a later stage!
You have to unlock the bootloader to install third-party operating systems on your device.
If the device is running Android, you might have to upgrade to Android 8.0.

You will also need to download manually some files specific for your port depending on the type of your install:
