Some of this is stored in your HH account, e.g. the screens and fields should all be restored. But some of it you'll have to do manually, unfortunately.

Agreed, I'll unstick that one. Thanks for the input.

I think there's zero chance of an upgrade on the existing unit (when it first came out it was already an old OS and some of us asked HH what on earth they were thinking). Maybe the next unit (no news on one, but they're bound to.be working on it) will come out on Nougat/Oreo? *sigh*

I'm tring to unlock the bootloader via adb (disaperaing ions I assume only apply to the UI)

I'm sorry to say that Hammerhead removed the ability to unlock the bootloader many months ago (a year ago or so?). There were protests at the time, but sadly they fell on deaf ears.

Could it be this issue? viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1124#p3981

You can't unlock the bootloader unless you manage to find a very early Karoo with early software, before they disabled this.

However, you can still sideload a lot of third-party apps with the locked bootloader. You don't need an unlocked bootloader for sideloading.
