I'm not the expert, but from what I understand from Gemini experience the past year, Planet's OTA update process works for devices that use their software updates, not unofficial versions.

However, think there are ways to do a 'manual install' of Planet's updates. You might want to look through forum threads in the Gemini section on this to get ideas...

Best,

You probably need to reflash the original boot img

Installed the original image. Updated the firmware. Did a boot in Debian and extracted the android boot image.Copied it to a folder in android. Did a boot in android and patched it with magisk. Copied the image to my computer and did a fastboot to flash the new patched image from magisk. Worked !
