Update: If i toggle through bootloader and hit factory mode, The device says it's unlocked and gonna boot after 5 seconds but it doesn't boot up. I'm just stuck with the bootloader but looking at the logs i can see that the ROM had been flashed sucessfully but why isn't it still booting up? Should i try the Oreo ROM?
