Can't go to home screen anymore
I've installed emteria OS (Android 17) on my Raspberry Pi 5 via the official RPI imager on a 64 GB MicroSD card. I chose not to activate it yet since I intended to do that after testing the OS out. After a few minutes I was going through the settings and playing around and all of a sudden (I don't remember how or why) the system rebooted. I'm now in the lock screen and when I enter my password I get to a blank screen for a second and it goes back to the lock screen. I don't know why this is. Did I have to activate my setup? Does this have anything to do with the "Reboots after 8 hours" text on the lock screen?

I decided to reinstall the system and activate it before using it. It now works.
Hi @sean134
Glad it works. In case anyone is having the same issue, the lock screen is independent of the activation/registration. The system just reboots every eight hours if not activated, and no online services are available. Other than that the system should be fully functional.
