I've broken my #shift6mq #shiftphone dual boot #postmarketOS - #android setup. I'm stuck in a "fastboot mode" boot screen. So far I'm unable to fix the problem. Anyone suggestions?

update 05/08/2025 : I’ve tried to use #UBports Installer to install #Ubuntu_Touch, #LineageOS, #postmarketOS, #ShiftOS. This all fails when the installer wants to reboot my #shiftphone #shift6mq to recovery or fastbootd.

update 11/08/2025 : At https://forum.shiftphones.com/threads/shift6mq-bricked-stuck-in-boot-fastboot-mode-screen.6198/ you can read the other things I've tried with no luck. So, today I went to the post office and my #shift6mq is on its way to #SHIFT GmbH Support/Reparatur.

update: After a holiday in Germany, my #shift #6mq phone is back home. The firmware is flashed by @shiftphones and now it's booting again 😃

Next step, install #postmarketos without bricking the phone 😉

#postmarketOS is running again on my #shiftphone #6mq. Before I installed postmarketOS, I've created a backup in #EDL mode.
