Marius Gripsgård was happy to announce the biggest Ubports update ever for many of the unofficial Ubuntu Phone devices that he and other contributors to this project are maintaining.

And now for the goodies! According to Marius Gripsgård, the OnePlus One, OnePlus X, Nexus 5, Nexus 6, Nexus 9, and Fairphone 2 devices are now all booting Ubuntu Touch, and support for the OnePlus 2, OnePlus 3, and Nexus 5x is coming soon. However, the Nexus 6 and Nexus 9 devices don't yet boot into a graphical user interface.

The OnePlus One, Nexus 5 and Fairphone 2 are the ones that received the most improvements. For example, there's now Bluetooth and voice call support, headphone switching and AppArmor fixes for the OnePlus One, as well as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, cellular, voice call and sound support for the Fairphone 2. On the other hand, Nexus 5 received Bluetooth support and AppArmor fixes.
