TL;DR- I'm trying to get back to Android 11 but I only have access to the fastboot menu since my phone is bootlooping. I'm fairly certain I hadn't enabled USB debugging when the phone was fully functional so I'm not sure if I can use ADB to do so. I also don't have the bootloader unlocked
I downloaded the 12 beta preview last week to try the new features, some UI bugs understandably but was mostly fine. A couple days ago while the screen was off and I just had the phone in my hand it randomly activated SOS mode so after a brief panic and cancelation of the 911 call I opted out of the beta immediately. The next morning after using my phone a bit I picked it up and noticed it was rebooting and was a little warm, and it's been bootlooping since then. I still remember the Andoid 12 UI being active so I'm pretty sure it hadn't reverted to the "new" 11 firmware yet.
I'm trying to revert back to 11 using the ADB on my PC, but I realized that I'm pretty sure I hadn't enabled USB debugging when my phone was still functional, so I'm not sure how to bypass that if I can at all. The web firmware flasher tool does detect my phone, but can't properly connect and I assume it's because the USB debugging isn't enabled.
Before I tried using the ADB I had attempted to perform a factory reset to fix the bootloop and the log messages said it was successfully done, but that didn't get it out of the loop.
