Hi Asa I was able to rescue my Flame by following the steps from https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Firefox_OS/Phone_guide/Flame/Updating_your_Flame#Shallow_Flash_to_the_latest_Firefox_OS_nightly_(Gaia_and_Gecko)
In my case because I use Windows10, I had to use the Cygwin 64 bit ( https://cygwin.com/setup-x86_64.exe) - this is not mentioned in the Wiki above. It took me a few tries until I realised that the error I was getting was because of the 32bit Cygwin Then I copied the last working OTA on the folder with Cygwin. I used this location to get it: https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/b2g/nightly/2016/01/2016-01-05-15-02-20-mozilla-central-flame-kk/ I executed then the shallow flash script and it did it's job until I got this: ### Push Done. and then it got stuck there. The phone didn't react anymore. I had to unplug the USB cable and then the phone restarted. It rebooted and I lost all my apps. But strangely not my pinned sites and pages. It took me a while to reinstall my apps. Fortunately if you go to the Marketplace you can see your apps if you go to: My apps. I could easily reinstall them. Btw, this is the bug that caused the misery: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1221056 Good luck and I hope that the OTA of tomorrow is good Mihai On Thu, Jan 7, 2016 at 12:32 AM, Asa Dotzler <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm seeing the same thing.
