Let me be more specific, it’s stuck after an update after a factory reset, I was having some problems with the deck getting stuck in screen off mode unless I pressed the volume buttons, in which case it would turn the screen on for a second then turn off again. So I decided fuck it, factory reset. It came back in but had an update pending so I did. Here’s where the problems start, I update and it got stuck in a boot loop, okay, so I do the 3 dots and power button to go back to a previous version or whatever, it works fine and plays games until I try to update again, this time in the beta build, now upon restarting it hangs at the steam deck logo once again.
I’ll admit I tinkered a bit under the hood but nothing I would consider crazy enough to cause a brick. Heaviest thing I think I did was change the ram to 8gb or something using cryoutilities l, any ideas what I broke?
It’s possibly because I let these issues continue for so long tbh, but yeah that sounds exactly like what I was dealing with
Working fine all day yesterday playing Black Mesa.
Did you by chance clone your drive when swapping ssd? I noticed a few quirks with mine like verifying install on every boot, screen blinking on and off during sleep process, hitching with the steam button etc. All that seems to have gone away with a full reimage.
