Guys, I need a little help please.
I tried updating my 5A OTA following these steps:
Spoiler: Update and Root Automatic OTA
- Before you download the OTA, open Magisk, tap Uninstall, then Restore Images.
- Take the OTA update when prompted. To check for updates manually, go to Settings > System > System Update > Check for Update
- Allow the update to download and install. DO NOT REBOOT WHEN PROMPTED. Open Magisk, tap Install at the top, then Install to inactive slot. Magisk will then reboot your device.
- You should now be updated with root.
The OTA didn't work. (update failed for whatever reason, multiple times) and I wasn't sure what to do next so I kept following the steps.
After the reboot the phone displays the google logo and goes into a screen that says "device corrupt and cant be trusted" something along those lines.
I'm on the latest release (minus the last OTA security update which is 14.28 MB IIRC) so I don't think I need to update the bootloader, radio or whatever to get it working... I THINK, not sure...
Any help fixing this would be greatly appreciated (obviously no data loss would be preferable). Cause I cant even turn the phone off. Its stuck on either the "device corrupt" screen or (if I press the power button to continue) the GOOGLE logo screen. NO matter how long I press the power button the phone wont turn off.
Like I said, I followed the instructions to a T but since there is no instruction for what to do in case the OTA isn't working...
Thanks in advance.
UPDATE: Managed to turn it off by pressing PWR+DWN VOL, that took me to fastboot mode (which says I'm on boot slot B?), among rescue, recovery, start was the turn off option. By the way, no other selection seems to be working.
UPDATE 2: Switching to boot slot A didn't fix it but at least the "system is corrupt" screen doesn't show up anymore. Now it "boots" to a "no command" screen. No GOOGLE logo, no nothing. Bootloader is still unlocked though, that's what gives me SOME hope that I might fix this without losing my data.
ANY HELP would be appreciated.
