Came back yesterday from vacation, turned my Rabbit on and it got somehow stuck on the main screen. Didn’t respond on the side button, but I was able to scroll to the reboot option. But after that, it got stuck in a bootloop. Pressing the button within 5 seconds doesn’t help, it just shuts off.

Also tried the ‘flashing tool’, which does enter ‘fastboot’, but after that I cannot flash the original RabbitOS 0.8.293

Are there any steps I can try to reset my R1?

Thank you Simon, sadly no response yet, but I ordered (and just received) my new Rabbit which works fine. I hope to restore the ‘old’ one, reading the text in the last screenshot again, I noticed ‘enable developer options’ which I never did, but is this something I can do with my computer?
