Fall back to IOS 13 from recovery mode?

I recently installed the iOS 14 Public on my iPhone XS which bricked my device. It went into an infinite boot loop. Then I went to recovery mode and reinstalled iOS14. Now it starts, takes me to the "Hello" screen and stays alive for about 10 minutes. Then it reboots.

Is there a way to fall back to iOS13 from recovery mode?

iPad dead (boot loop) after 15.2 update Hi, just updated my daughter's ipad a couple of nights ago to iOS 15.2 now it is in a constant boot loop. Tried everything, recover mode and DFU mode. In DFU mode it performs the restore, but ends up in the same boot loop as before.. any advice?

Attempting to update (or downgrade from Public beta) made me recovery loop. So I decided to go back from the 14.5 public release to 14.4.2 because I need a stable iOS release, but since default mode reported "you're up to date", I went recovery mode. plugged the iPhone in the Mac, hit "Update", got the file downloaded and guess what - after updating it shows the apple logo, but instead of a second progress bar: restart, force boot into recovery. Tried 3 times already with also an official apple USB-Lightning (USBC-Lightning not near), no dice. restarts don't help. Now I want the data to be fresh and not one month old (yes you or me are lucky I made a backup). Is there any way to get this running iOS 14.4.2 and not 14.5 public?
