lol yeah a magic fix everything command would be brilliant lol i've made backups and don't delete random files so looks like a flashing is in order. couple of weeks ago i had to reflash because a failed power kernel remove left it in a reboot loop, i could only flash the root and not emmc as it said device not recognised?? wondered if there was any remedial work i could do whilst it's like this to safe guard another failed emmc flash? i.e. format emmc- by going into file manager and formatting from there.
i'm basing this on last failed attempt to flash and don't know for sure wether it will fail again?
