"Just got back to my thread after a bit of a crisis. Was updating my Raspberry Pi 4 to the latest Buster image and somehow, after the update process got stuck, my device is now bricked I've been trying to recover it with no luck. Has anyone else experienced anything similar?"

"Had this issue with my RP4 a few weeks ago. The Raspbian update was supposed to be a minor one, but it somehow wiped my entire OS. Luckily, I had a recent backup, so I was able to recover all my data."

"Yea, I had similar issues a few months ago when I updated my RPi 4 to the latest firmware. Had to roll back to the previous version to get it working again. Anyone figure out if it's a power supply issue or something else?"

"Yup, just had this happen to my Pi 4 too. Was trying to update to the latest OS and got stuck in an infinite boot loop. Made me lose a project, but I was able to recover it by using the SD card recovery tool."
