        Yes restart works fine.
        It's cold boot that has problem for me and @stanwood

        Edit : ok i assumed restart works fine because i had not noticed problem here, but just tested and i got one bootloop and then a normal boot.

            I just retested my BQ E5 HD which had been turned off since yesterday: so, BQ screen, then freezes on black screen. Force restart and this time it's ok.
            ...I strongly believe that an OTA-26 is needed!! 🙂

              Strange this issue did not come out during RC...

                Yes confirmed, when i've updated RC, there where no issues.
                idk if any coincidence but there were issues on infrastructure during this time

                  Hello everyone!

                  The expected release date for Ubuntu Touch OTA-25 is Friday, March 24th 2023. Note that this is the last release of an OTA for xenial!

                  This forum post is a companion to the OTA-25 Call For Testing

                  Please post any general observations you have while testing the current image in the RC channel, as compared to OTA-24, in this thread. The current release candidate (RC) is 2023-W11.

                  If you have any comments on any of the specific issues in the OTA-25 tracker, please post them in the issue thread so they are easier to track. OTA-25 tracker: https://ubports.atlassian.net/browse/YUMI-6

                  Please note that only critical and security fixes will be able to enter OTA-25 as this point, normal bug fixes and new features will need to wait for our next release. Please do not discuss normal bug fixes and new features here.

                  👍😎

                    @lduboeuf Guess what, I just tried to boot the Cooler and now it's not only stuck in a bootloop, I can't even break the loop with power + volume- which means I can't even shut it down anymore. As a result, I can neither switch to developer mode to flash it with an older build nor can I select the bootloader from the menu because power + volume+ doesn't work.

                    @Flohack do you have any ideas how to get the tablet to shut down? Currently, I could only hope for the battery to give out. Unfortunately, I can't seem to register a bug, because my atlassian account has no access to ubport's issue tracker.
                    Maybe BQ devices should be announced as not supported by OTA-25 until the issue is fixed. 😲 :anxious_face_with_sweat:

                      Hold the on/off button for a long time, eventually it turns off.

                          A new RC has roll out that should fix the boot issue. Also for device that have fingerprint, please check if no regression.
