if you have a keyboard you can hook up to it you can switch to tty, just like on a desktop, whenever you see the gui login.
Unfortunately I don't have a keyboard that connects (only BT and USB)

Use the installer image if you want an encrypted drive and update it as per the blog instructions I linked in the first post. This is the factory image that comes on the Mobian CE Edition.

grab a little usb-c to usb-a adapter and you should be ab;e to use your usb one. if you had pairied the bt one already you could probably use it, but that's a bit hard to do if you cant get in to pair it.
if you can't use a kb to get into a tty, i'd say use jumpdrive and the latest mobian img, and reinstall it.

If encryption isn't important to you and you want less updates to download. the latest image not broken is this one. Still run the updates in the blog. Choose the Feb-10th .gz

If you want to tweak or learn more about Mobian this is an excellent source.
