Soft Brick Bootloop After Doing Unlock Bootloader Looader
This is my bad experience after doing unlock bootloader. I got soft brick after doing unlock bootloader, even when i'm still not root the devices. This is my analize
Before unlocking, ALWAYS check:
fastboot getvar snapshot-update-status
Safe result:
snapshot-update-status: none
Dangerous results:
merging
snapshotted
initiated
Second important thing
Avoid unlocking immediately after:
- OTA update
- first boot after OTA
- system optimization
- slot switch
Instead:
- update completely
- boot normally several times
- wait a while
- verify snapshot status is none
- THEN unlock
Check Slot
There actually was an early warning sign in the “bad” state, but it’s subtle.
The most important difference is not a single flag. It’s the combination of slot state + firmware generation + OTA state.
Successful state now looks like this:
current-slot: a
slot-successful:a: yes
slot-successful:b: no
slot-unbootable:a: no
slot-unbootable:b: no
unlocked: no
secure: yes
That is a classic healthy A/B state:
- active slot marked successful
- inactive slot unused but valid
- AVB intact
- no merge/update weirdness
the original broken state:
current-slot: bslot-successful:b: yesslot-successful:a: yesslot-unbootable:a: noslot-unbootable:b: nounlocked: yessecure: no
suspicious part is: both slots marked successful simultaneously
That often happens after:
- Virtual A/B OTA
- snapshot merge
- incomplete OTA cleanup
- or recently switched slots
