[Fire TV Android Development] Pachacouti:
Nothings working, yet it works lol

Okay guys, soz for quoting when I was meant to reply. This forum does that good a job at jumping around as I click things due to constanly having to accept cookies, so I miss things like reply, and can only see quote. No I will NOT accept third part cookies.

Ok, I'll try shrt n sweeet.

Origionally flashed rooted r1, worked perfect, still does.

Screwed up somewhere, got the black firelogo, bootloop, the ONLY file that worked to get out of this bootloop was a zip for amonet, I assume this is an earlier firestick file, but it allowed me to reflash rooted r1 to get out of bootloop.

I have tried every debloat there is for mantis, and as previously mentioned, system does not exist, after following instructions to wipe system before the rooted r1 after the crash that forced me to use the amonet for de-bricking. I can reflash anything, but in twrp, system does not exist. After flashing this latest debloat, my space was full. I wipe dalvik, perfect, I wipe cache, perfect, I attempt system, but as I said, does not exist. I try different combo's of mount rw blahblah system, nothing.

Seems the only way I can delete anything is being logged into amazon, where I then go through the let's delete all this again delete-loop.

I'm writing this because several people in different threads say to wipe system. It is my belief the system we erase in twrp is NOT the system we WANT to wipe. Just a heads up, because I expect others will soon discover this.

Can someone please make a mantis version of the amonet 1.2 zip? You'll find out why soon enough if my theory is correct.. The system we are wiping is the wrong system.

This is why magisk cannot be re-installed without error... my last log (yup crashed after flashing this debloat 1.3.4)
