lineageos 21.0-20241216 nightly update on moto one 5g ace (kiev) boot loop (lemmy.ml)

Anyone with a moto one 5g ace (kiev) that performed OTA update recently and got a boot loop out of it?

I use lineageos for microG, which is based on lineageos, and Today got an OTA update which I can't matches the same version as the one on lineage, but after attempting the reboot required by the update, the phone gets into a boot loop.

I haven't found a way to get out of the loop without losing data. Downgrading doesn't help, no matter if a major upgrade is attempted.

It looks to me this could be rather lineageos issue, since I got a past experience with a pixel 4a (5g), and at that time I lost all data attempting a factory reset that didn't even help at all. Later there came an update from lineageos, which I manually installed, and got the phone back, though with all data lost. This time I'd like to avoid losing data.

Any help or hint is appreciated.

I attempted already installing by hand, meaning doing an adb sideload. That's what I meant when I said I attempted to downgrade, of course I also tried sideloading the same version that lead to the boot loop just in case. I haven't tried doing a factory reset, but I really would like to avoid it.

I don't use google play, I use lineageos for microg, and even so, I avoid google services, since most my apps come from f-droid. Regardless, losing the data is really a bad thing, and all apps configurations and such.

In the future it may be worth taking a backup
