That said, it’s not without its flaws. Many users have reported Google TV shows ‘Data may be corrupt’ error during startup. It pops up out of nowhere – in classic Google fashion – and forces you to factory reset the Chromecast. So, if you are also facing the same issue, then here is how you can fix the “Unable to load Android system” error right now.
Google TV May Have Error Fixing Data (2021)
First of all when you get “Data may be corrupt” or “Android system cannot be loaded” error on Google TV, you cannot do anything with the remote control because you are in Android recovery. you will have to Physically access the Chromecast on the back of the TV when the dongle is connected to the TV. If you have a wall-mounted TV this will be a challenge for you but you still have to do this little operation.
you will find small button on the back Chromecast dongle. Press it once and it will toggle between “Try again” and “Factory data reset” in Recovery mode. A long press will select this option and perform the selected action. So I recommend switching to “Try again” and then long press the button. It should restart your Chromecast and boot directly to Google TV without any issues.
If this is not the case and you still get the “Data may be corrupt” error on your Google TV, Factory reset your Chromecast. When you do this you will boot fine without any errors. To avoid the frequent boot error of Google TV, when you reboot, make sure to update the OS build to the latest version.
Google already released a patch To fix this particular issue. Open Settings -> System -> About -> System Update and check for updates. If you are on build number 200918.033, you are already on the updated build.
