I’m having the same problem here on XA2. What I gathered so far is to SSH into the phone. But then what? What I tried so far: uninstall certain packages
- pkcon search name [PACKAGE]
- devel-su pkcon remove [PACKAGE]
harbour-storeman removed OK
aliendalvik-control showed two installs (!), first one removed easily, second one gives an error
On the Telegram group I found a comment from Andrew Branson:
You can boot into recovery mode. Then you can remove the aliendalvik-control-edge service or executable. that should fix it enough to be able to boot up normally. you’ll have to force uninstall aliendalvik-control with scripts disabled
because there’s an error in the uninstall script of 9.3.0-1. you might even have -1 and -2 installed together because of that.
On October 1, abranson posted how to uninstall in this thread:
devel-su
rpm -e --noscripts aliendalvik-control
Underneath, a post from M.R.I showing a script. After
pkcon update
a lot of things installed, and the phone is back alive
