Well. my phone has the boot loop problem. I was able to get my phone to boot by using the freezer method but not on long enough to recover anything.
After a bit of googling I discovered this method: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/help/data-recovery-via-download-mode-t3306047 which states that it may be possiable to recover my files via download mode. I tried doing this but discovered that I couldn't flash anything because anything I flashed was too old. I was wondering if anyone has been able to successfully been able to connect using Send_Command on ZVG.
