Maintainer notes

Compatible Lenovo X605F/L versions

This port works well for the 3GB/32GB versions of this tablet. There are reports about a 4GB/64GB version, which also works.

There also exists a 2GB/16GB version, where it is not possible to flash a custom recovery image. That means, that you still can install Ubuntu Touch boot and system images manually by fastboot. But you will not be able to use the installer or get OTA updates.

How to install Ubuntu Touch OS

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

Make sure the bootloader of your device is unlocked and that your device has the required version of Android installed. Before installing, follow the device-specific instructions below:

Please make sure, that your device is a Lenovo Smart Tab M10 X605L or X605F with at least 3GB RAM. For the 2GB/16GB models, the installer won't work!
Your device must be running Android 9 before installing Ubuntu Touch. This seems to be already the case for the most devices of this type. But if you still need to flash the Android 9 stock rom, please see the install section in the link below:
