Bricked Phone while updating

My Xperia 10 III (which had some KDE apps installed) failed to update to 4.6. Instead it has ended up in a weird state where the OS boots but the UI does not load. I did not make a backup of my data before updating the phone, stupidly - is there anything I can do?

First use jolla’s official instructions on how to get into recovery mode and mount /home (maybe also copy your data to sdcard at this point), then [Release notes] Sauna 4.6.0.11 - #176 by nthn [Release notes] Sauna 4.6.0.11 - #189 by nthn should help if you have developer mode and ssh access enabled

Thanks, will try! Glad I’m not completely crazy and others are having the same problem.
