My experience with reinstalling stock ROM and reinstalling e/os

To have a clean e/os because I thought I meddled to much with e/os I reinstalled the stock nothing os using this tool. after trying to installing e/os it gave me errors and bricked my phone. after trying to many times of installing stock rom I was able to install e/os again, I don’t know what did the trick but these are the things that I think may have something to do with success: 1. Installing stock rom on both boot partitions. or 2. using a USB A to USB C cable instead of original factory usb c to usb c cableb or 3. using community build e/os.

I don’t which of the above mentioned strategies helped me. I would be happy if anyone with the same problem or knowledge could elaborate on the topic so next time we wouldn’t have to go through all the trouble and frustration.

Can you give precise device information? See e.g.

and

my current e/os version: 3.2-a14-20251022539039-community-tetris

my device codename: tetris

Good to hear.

Good suggestion, especially if one has been experimenting with other custom ROMs.

  1. using a USB A to USB C cable instead of original factory usb c to usb c cable

Always use a high quality USB data cable not a charging cable (that might be provided in the box). Try to avoid any USB hub (including one that might be used in PC laptop to provision “extras” like USB C) – try to use the USB port soldered to the motherboard.

  1. using community build e/os.

Avoid eosinstaller installer until it has adequate support information.
