Good question. That’s not something that I have ever done i.e. I’ve always booted Jumpdrive, done what I wanted to do, then rebooted normally. So I don’t know whether there is any kind of time limit.

The obvious thing to do would be to boot Jumpdrive again and see whether the phone again operates correctly (in Jumpdrive).

I would suggest again though: boot Jumpdrive, make a disk image of the entire eMMC drive onto the host computer, then shutdown the phone. Then you can retrieve files from the old contents of the phone now and forever (by using the disk image). You will of course need approximately 32 GB of free disk space on your host computer in order to use that approach.

(I assume that that is just a typo when you have transcribed the error message. Should be mmcblk0.)

Finally, given that JumpDrive is blocked, I flashed the phone without being able to retrieve the Calendar data I missed.

With Waydroid data that requires a password every 5 minutes, the disk image would not have been possible in my case.
I still copied the Waydroid data when Jumpdrive was working but now I’m wading with them because I can’t move it without copying them, they kept their root restriction (I found it hard to make a zip file), I’m going to try to erase the copies too much with the terminal.
