Update: I’ve abandoned rescuing the USB and just flashed another iso with balenaetcher, and it booted normally. According to my previous experience, the USB will be fine once formatted from this state. But I would still like to know how to rescue dead USBs like in my case. So, don’t use ventoy unless you really understand what you are doing.

I couldn’t make a post without a picture for some reason so I’ve attached random pic Anyway, thanks for advice, I will give Graphene a try if I manage to get a Pixel

I wish I could use Graphene but I’m afraid I won’t manage rooting a Honor

Once I tried rooting an old ZTE and even then I failed

I’m not sim-swapping at all, but I have recently placed my phone into faraday cage, maybe that was the trigger?

Carrier-locked phones are not common in my region. Maybe it’s Huawei’s tricks?
