How to Upgrade Manually to Ubuntu 26.10 "Stonking Stingray"

on
  With the development cycle for Ubuntu 26.10 officially underway, Canonical has published stonking/snapshot-1 . For early adopters, developers, and enthusiasts looking to ride the absolute edge of the open-source wave, the temptation to jump from the stable shores of 26.04 LTS, Resolute Raccoon, into the development stream is strong.

Once it has completed, safely remove hardware. It's called 'qualcomm device' or something like that. Hold the power button to exit mass storage mode until the device vibrates. You should see a menu with options to boot into mass storage mode, start windows or if you have dual boot enabled, boot into windows mobile.

To dual boot you have to run through the oobe (out of box experience) setup and have booted to desktop at least once. Restart the phone and go into mass storage mode, tap on dual boot and tap enable
