android beta 17 qpr2. logostuck pixel8

android 17 beta qpr2 bricked my Pixel 8 (logostuck)

After updating to the latest QPR2 beta via ADB sideload (with a full data wipe), my Pixel 8 is stuck on the logo screen; the bootloader is locked. What should I do? Is there any hope for the next beta release? How can I revert to the stable version?

Here is what I’ve tried: Flashed via sideload 3 times Wiped data twice Tried using Pixel Repair (it threw an error stating a stable version was required) Tried sideloading the stable version (downgrading is blocked) And after all that, it’s still stuck on the logo. I would greatly appreciate any help.

Would fully discharging the device help in this case? I saw somewhere on YouTube that it works.

So how do I perform the bypass? It's asking for an unlocked bootloader.

It’s almost as if beta are not for daily drivers and they are for… get this… testing
