@penguin42 to replace the battery, both for safety and because it makes power cycling a sub 1 second process instead of a 15 second one

@penguin42 you might be interested in qbootctl if you're running some Linux userspace, it's a port of the Android bootctl HAL to handle slot switching and resetting the retry count from userspace

@cas Does that let you recover if you've already got it into the worst recovery mode?

@cas Actually; let me more precise - I mean the qcom boot mode that happens before fastboot.

@penguin42 ohh, EDL mode? There's a tool you can find on GitHub, but it requires having some vendor signed "loader" binary, many of these get leaked so you might get lucky..

It can be quite hard to figure out what's causing that, especially without serial access.

@cas Yeh I think that's the scary one; I ended up having to reflash via a windows vm running a dodgy chinese reflashing tool; if I can already get to Fastboot I'm not too scared, it's when it doesn't get that far I worry.
