I received my community edition this morning and got it all set up but during updating I couldn't login back in to check the progress, type the pass code then it resets and expects it again. I have had this with mobian on my braveheart so did what I have done before and pressed the power button to turn it all off and turned it back on. I have the message 'OH no! Something as gone wring, A problem as occurred and the system can't recover. Please log out and try again@ which I have done a number of times.
So, have I killed it in double quick time or can I re install the image on the emmc? Or is there some way to recover it?
Thanks
Ashley

If you did break the installation here is a pretty good detailed video on how to re flash the Pinephone and start fresh.

Keep Mobian updated following the instructions in that blog probably every couple days because updates are rolling out quickly. It's getting very reliable.
If I helped you please rate +1. It helps make up for the lousy pay I get working here.
