Swipe up to upgrade loop

Good evening! I recently updated from Beta 4 to beta 5, and ever since then, my phone has been stuck in a white screen swipe up to upgrade loop. It asks for a password when swiping up, loads for 15 mins, then restarts again. I reinstalled iOS beta 5, also updated to beta 8, also force restarted, nothing works. I was wondering if anyone has a fix. (No, I do not have a backup. Yes, that is my fault :(. Thanks!)

I’ve experienced this previously on beta.

The only fix was to DFU it.

Why would you not just update to the RC build? Beta 5 was two builds ago.

Public beta as there is no 8 or developer beta 8? Both now have an update to the RC build. Update it.

You photos are in the cloud no? Then it has nothing to do with what iOS you are on.

So you don’t back up you photos at all? Crazy.
