Soft bricked my FairPhone 6

Help Fairphone 6
1

Hello.

Yesterday, I rooted my FairPhone 6 using the APatch app. After doing that, I wanted to relock the fastboot flashing, but I did not check “fastboot flashing get_unlock_ability” which I later found out was 0. So I locked flashing, and now I’m stuck in the FastBoot Mode.

Now in FastBoot Mode, pressing (Start, Restart Bootloader, Recovery Mode) result in FastBoot Mode restart. Pressing Power Off still works normally.

My question is, can I either somehow get into recovery mode to reflash the Android image or unlock fastboot flashing from this state? Is there any way I can fix this issue myself, or did I just completely screw up?

Thank you for any answers.

You can not lock your phone when rooted. So when you can unlock now the only way out is to contact support, send it in and pay around 50€.

Well. I was able to do it with my Motorola moto g 32 when I was testing It for the first time years ago so I figured I might be able to do it with FairPhone too :frowning:

Also one stupid question. If instead of sending my FairPhone I walk into FairPhone store, will they help me on the spot with it?

Hello
There is no physical Fairphone Store.
All repairs are handled by Cordon Electronics. Am afraid there is no other option.

Ok, thank you. I though there was definitely one FairPhone store in Munich.

Sorry, I’ve never heard of such a store here in Munich and I doubt it very much that there’s one.
