Shit, shit, shit. Android display all black after turning on inverted colours. Doesn't reset to normal on reboot and now I can't unlock the phone. Any tricks to be done in recovery?
This is all the phone does on reboot. Shows logos, warnings, the lineage OS animation, a split second of the lockscreen and then nothing. No button presses get any reaction so far other than holding power/vol down to get to fastboot and reboot from there.
The phone was completely fine till I enabled "invert colours" from the swipe down menu becuse of a annoyingly white website. 😢
Swiping about where the pattern should be makes the phone do some vibrations signalling a wrong pattern. I know that I only get so many pattern retries before the phone goes into an even more bricked state.
Phone model is a Motorola Edge 30 running #lineageos 23.2.
@sophie if you have developer mode enabled and usb debugging enabled you could change the settings back via adb?
@tk es, I could, but allowing adb access involves tapping an allow button, which needs an unlocked phone, which in turn needs a working display.
@tk I'd need a way to unlock and allow adb without the screen working.
@sophie yes, you could unlock via adb as well, maybe check where the field would pop up when you connect the usb cable and allow it blindly?
@sophie @tk you could try using a usb keyboard or trackpad. My usb c dock works perfectly when using to charge it...
