PinePhone won't boot after software update
#3
I perform periodic full image backups of the eMMC so that if updates go horribly wrong the phone can be easily returned to a working state. Also I keep a "known to work" SD card handy to boot from, just in case.

I've thought about just not doing updates at all since the phone has worked well enough for my needs for some time now. I keep hoping though that some of the rough edges will get polished at some point, so for now I still do updates once or twice a week.
