Infinix S4 x626 Bootloop
Infinix S4 x626 Bootloop
(18-07-2020, 12:47 PM)MirzaGhalib I first unlocked the bootloader and then flashed twrp (both via ADB commands). Phone went on a bootloop. Downloaded the stock firmware from hovatek (the only stock rom that worked). Phone was in orange state till then
After phone booted in stock I unlocked the bootloader via adb commands without any problem. Then I installed magisk patched boot.img too and got root access as well. But everytime I install twrp recovery.img via adb it goes into bootloop.
There is another way to install twrp.img from the phone itself which needs root access (flashify method). I did it too but again phone went on a bootloop.
After all these steps, I tried flashing the empty vbmeta.img I found from both xda and hovatek. Neither of them worked
My phone's stock vbmeta.img is not named as vbmeta_signed.img and yet the empty vbmeta img is not working
Note : I was able to root without flashing vbmeta.img
But flashing vbmeta had no effect on twrp issue. It went on bootloop regardless.
I have also used hovatek application to make twrp recovery for my phone and it still went on a bootloop (again, with/without flashing vbmeta)

I've seen more than one difference between the one I used to use before and the one I flashed which was downloaded from hovatek forum itself (my original rom came with "AI gallery" installed, this rom doesn't have the app. The alarm clock interface is a bit different too).
I wanna know if the build number changed? I never paid attention to my build number and never wrote it down before experimenting
I'm sorry if my question is stupid to you.

Does the recovery img changes after the updates? I'm curious.
And I'm sorry I forgot to mention the commands I used. I've saved the commands in my laptop but it is kinda dead now so won't be able to do anything till it gets fixed.
