The problem

Steps to reproduce

What is the current behavior?

  • Refresh the Updater app
  • It shows multiple available images for installation
  • Based on the available options the user chooses one and installs
  • If the OS version of the build is lower than the current OS version this installation can cause a device to go into a bootloop or at worst brick

  • Users should be shown a pop up mentioning that they are attempting to install the previous version of the OS
  • If possible the Updater should not display lower OS levels
