I downloaded/installed the OS 4.3 upgrade to my T-Mobile Samsung Note II via updates from my device. This was about 6-7 hours ago. After installation, the phone continues to reboot. It will boot up, shows home screen for a split second and automatically reboots. On many of the reboots it doesn't show the home screen, it reboots at the point the home screen should show. I did read that the phone would randomly reboot after upgrade, but my phone is continuously rebooting, not randomly. I thought it would stop but it has gone on for 5 hours and is continuous and although I had on charger, it still drained my battery. I pulled out the battery for few minutes and replaced and my phone automatically started and when it got to the home screen, stayed for about 2-3 seconds then started the reboot process again. Battery went down to 13%, I removed battery again and replaced and now I'm able to charge with phone off. Please help!!! I need my phone to work because I did not back up my internal memory. I cannot reset the phone because the home screen shows for only a split second, if it shows at all, then reboots. Does anyone have any solution?

Hi all,
my polaris, that was in my pocket started vibrating every 5 secs some mins ago.
Watching what could be, and i saw it's in continuous reboot.
It displays the first logo (smart mobility) then reboots.
no say to enter in bootloader mode or hardresetting.
it displays that two screens for a while, if i try them, then an another reset.
I removed the battery and wait for 10 mins... same thing. no way to get a boot.
Removed sd and simcard... same problem.
A reboot (like softreset) every 4 seconds until you unplug battery.
halp.
Did you try hard reset?

it happened with me last night but it was almost out of battery so it will start to boot bit it will fail because the battery needs to be charged.
so take the battery out. wait for 1 or 2 minutes. reinsert it. do not turn the device on. recharge. turn ur phone 10 minutes latere because now it has enough power to boot

Noticed very erratic behavior on the Nexus 5 :
The phone automatically shuts down.. tries to restart and reboots once it reaches the Google logo. It then continues in a reboot loop.
It got out of the reboot loop, but now it's completely dead. No charge indicator. Won't start at all. Cannot even get into the recovery.
Happened once before. Same issue: reboot loop + dead phone but it started working after a while.
What should I do? The battery was charged when it died.
Also, before it died, whenever I pressed the power button to turn off the screen, the screen went off, but then came on automatically again.

I'm currently experiencing the same problem, my Nexus 5 is apparently has a stuck power button, it'll power up and off again constantly and attempting to go into the bootloadeer wont help as the power button being stuck it starts up immediatly i cannot change the option quick enough to go into recovery mode.
I'm thinking the only option here is to send it back to Google and have it swapped or repaired.
Hey i am new to this forum,so sorry if i am posting this in wrong section or smtn like that .So yesterday i was searcing the web when suddenly my screen turned completely blue!That lasted for about a second ,and then it came back to normal.After a few seconds it happened again but many times in a row.I tryed to power it up ,but on boot,it turned blue again and shut down again.It was off whole night,and at morning,it booted normaly,andbi managed to move all my data to computer.After i finished that,i tryed looking what could be the reason for this to happen.But phone shut down again.Till now i was able to turn it on for about 2-3 seconds and then again shut down.The thing that i noticed is that when phone is booting,it will warm up pritty fast,but not at some high temepratures,but that much that i can fill that it is hotter.I decided to try to put it charging,but the battery icon would appear,and after few seconds screen would be blue again,but it would charge.I also noticed that led indicator was showing charging but with low light.I decided to factory reset,oressed few buttons and screen turned off,but led indicator became much more noticable.Now it wont turn on.I tryed power cycle but it does nothing.Any solutions?My phone is alcatel idol 3 6045k with stock 5.0.2 android.
assuming your phone has a charge.
press and hold the power button till the acatel boot screen shows up.
the phone should reboot this may take 30 seconds to 1 minute to reboot.
you might see if you can get into the boot loader also.
it could be worse issues wich others here might be able to help more with.
Sounds like a hardware failure. I recommend sending it in for repair or replacement.

Hi,
I've had this Moto G3 for just over 6 months now and have had no problems with it until very recently. Basically, I was trying to add a new Google account to the phone earlier, but after entering my PIN to access the Google screen, the phone froze, and I had to force reboot. Startup took slightly longer, but then the phone switched on.
Two hours later, I picked up the phone and pressed the power button. Nothing. I pressed and held, for about 12 seconds. Nothing. I unplugged and replugged the charger. Nothing. I put the phone down and went on my laptop, and suddenly, my lockscreen appeared.
It then did the same thing later. What's happening? It can't be the charger, or the battery. I've never rooted or modified the system things on the phone, it's close to stock Marshmallow. Any help?
Have you tried a hard reset through recovery mode?

Send it to Motorola, best advice you can get.
I bought a Huawei Honor 5C Pro phone 2 years back and so far it had been working well. Two nights back, the phone shut down because of empty battery and I slept without putting it on charge.
The next morning, I started to charge it but the red light started blinking continuously for some time. Then, the honor logo was repeatedly flashing on and off without it reaching the lock screen.After every two or three times of flashing honor logo, it flashes emui with reboot,factory reset and clear partition cache options but it doesn't stop for me to choose any option.
This bootloop happens continuously while it is charging and if I remove it from charging, it still bootloops and doesn't shutdown no matter what. It bootloops until all battery is drained and then shuts down.
I did not root or add custom OS or something. The phone was running the android version it came with.
Unfortunately, the battery is not removable.
Also, the problem is, when I put it on charge, for some time a red light blinks and then without any input from user, the phone switches on, boots to Honor logo and after every 2-3 honor logo flashes, it flashes to emui (with reboot, factory reset and clear partition cache option) but the screen immediately blacks out before I can choose any option.
The morning it happened, after many tries, it did open once at 10% charge. But it again switched off and hasn't stopped bootlooping since.
I don't care if the phone doesn't work. I just need the data stored on the ROM. If the phone can work, that's great but the data is more important.
As long as the phone keeps charging, this boot loop keeps happening despite me trying to switch off the phone. When I remove it from charging, it still boot loops until battery is low.
I tried connecting it to a laptop using a usb but the laptop only detects the phone/device for 2-3 seconds.
Please help me get back control of the phone or atleast recover the data stored on the phone's ROM.
