/e/os not loading after sideload
- /e/ version:1.8,1.12.3, maybe other versions
- Device model(s):sm-j700h
- Developer mode enabled: yes
- Device rooted: no
- Trackers blocker enabled: yes/no
Summary
/e/os boot loop after installation
The problem
After installing /e/os thru TWRP, my device gets stuck at the e logo with the bouncing dot until at some point it reboots itself to recovery. Similarly, after flashing /e/recovery using Heimdall or installing it from TWRP, booting into it gets stuck at a black screen.
Steps to reproduce
Follow the installation instructions at https://doc.e.foundation/devices/j7elte/install. The device will boot into black screen when trying to boot into /e/recovery. After rebooting from sideload, the device will boot loop when trying to boot into the OS (installed using TWRP because I can't get /e/recovery to work).
What is the current behavior?
/e/recovery boots into black screen. /e/os gets stuck at e logo with the bouncing dot.
What is the expected correct behavior?
/e/recovery should boot into a proper recovery mode. /e/os should not get stuck at booting.
