UMI MAX NOUGAT FOTA BOOT LOOP

patrik2991

So today i received a fota update.I was on the latest android 6 release before.

Started the fota, it downloaded about 1230 MB, installed, rebooted, optimized apps, started the system, and now when the system loads a notification came in "Android system updating..." it loads to 1/4 of the bar or 1/3 or none of it, and the phone restarts over and over again. So it is a nice FOTA update again! Thank you! (I also liked the one which killed fota updates...)

Ok i need to flash it blablabla...

But tell me, how can i save my data?

Thats it:

Hi
Sorry for your inconvenience.
Please plug your phone to computer or put SD card to phone and save user data (pictures, music etc.) then perform factory reset (settings - backup and reset - factory data reset) and try FOTA updates again.
Of course before FOTA update remove SD card from your device.
If still won't work you need use SPFT and flash you system with latest firmware.
Here is SPFT updating instruction

Ok, i can put in an SD card, or connect to PC, but the phone restart in every 2 sec, how the hell should i copy files under 2 sec?

Is there a way to enabled rom download without going to developer mode and turn on usb debugging? Becuase i can't access it under 2 sec, so spft can't download rom hehehe. THANK YOU!

Your phone needs to be off when you using SPFT. And definitely you no need doing nothing else with phone settings.
Please follow this SPFT updating instruction
If updating process not start automatically you need press power button until start updating /flashing (around 10 seconds)

For anyone having the same issue:
After numerous try i managed to turn on Airplane mode, and the reboot loop stopped. After turning it off the reboot loop not started again.
