[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ewle:
I forgot to flash 5.2.6.7 before flashing the latest ROM now I'm in a endless boot loop with TWRP.

Is there anyway to fix this? I flashed 5.2.6.7_r1 with the same results.

Taking a look at the recovery.log in /tmp it says it's still on 5.2.4.0 even after flashing
