What makes you believe it is a SFOS bug as opposed to something else?

I am not sure indeed but this it is a very limited environment.

Then assume it is something on your end and troubleshoot accordingly - don’t assume it is a SFOS bug, and especially don’t wait for it to be “resolved”.

To reboot to SFOS recovery (after flashing the hybris-recovery.img), use fastboot reboot instead of fastboot reboot recovery.

That’s because SFOS Recovery is flashed onto boot partition, not recovery partition.
