i have removed battery for a few minutes, removed sd card, rubbed battery,

and the only way i can turn the phone off is by removing the battery.

    You cannot access the battery unless you break the bq telephone. And there is no whatsapp on the Ubuntu system. So... what exactly are you talking about?

Go for a hard reset.



You can find the Ubuntu firmware in the following link:
http://www.mibqyyo.com/descargas/categorias/aquaris-e4-5-ubuntu-edition/

  • Go to the folder "MTK SP Flash Tool" and execute"Flash_tool" or "Flash_tool.exe".


  • Click on "Scatter-Loading" and select the file "Android_scatter_emmc" (or similar name) which is in the unzipped folder named "firmware" that you moved to the root, and press "Open".
