Nexus 5 Problems - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

MY nexus since this morning started to reboot randomly.
When it starts, it keeps rebooting at the google logo (not the animation), sometime it can go past it, going into android with the shut down option displayed, but after 3 seconds it reboots itself.
Sometimes it happen that when it enters android, it will optimize apps , enter android, and then reboot again.
It will do even on the recovery. (wanted to try with a reflash/wipe/etcetc)
What do you think guys? Battery problem? power button malfunction?
Should I sent it to google and hope they do not charge me anything?

[Q] T-Mobile Samsung Note 2 Upgrade to OS 4.3

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?

[Q] Nexus 5 won't boot up and reboots. Power Button problems

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.

Sol 26 randomly reboots, and now progressed into a boot loop.

Hi Friends, as the title says I have a problem booting my Z3(sol26), and I wish to save my data and photos on the phone.
I didn't root or flash anything on the phone, and haven't updated for over 2-years, the recent changes on the phone are installing and uninstalling the WeChat app.
Symptoms:
- The first sign of problem started two days ago, the phone randomly reboots while I am using it. Although it is a rare occurrence, I didn't pay too much attention to it.
- Then yesterday, it randomly reboots again, but this time, the reboot process did not complete: the phone would reboot again after showing the boot animation (like this: i dot imgur dot com/AhF5Kso.png). I plugged the phone into a charger, then it magically completes the reboot. The random reboot happened 2 times yesterday, each time I solved by plugging in the USB cable to charger.
- So today, I decided I should do a backup, but things got worse too fast. The phone now enters a reboot loop, each loop lasts only 5 seconds or so, just enough time for the sony logo to show up. And plugging in the USB cable doesn't help anymore.
What I have tried:
1. Holding power and volume+ key, gets three vibrations and turns phone off. No effect, boot loop continues after powering on.
2. Press the reset button in the sim-card slot, gets three vibrations and turns phone off. No effect, boot loop continues after powering on.
3. Opened up the back cover, removed battery connection, and reconnected it. No effect, boot loop continues after powering on.
4. Plugging in the USB will cause the phone to power on and enter reboot loop.
5. Charging the phone using magnetic contact while it is powered off will not cause boot loop, the battery logo and percentage show up. Now the phone is 90% charged.
At this point, my wish is to get the phone to boot successfully one more time, so that I can savage the data. Please help me.

Pixel issues

I don't know if it is bad hardware or what but the issue first started when I was sending a text and my phone crashed. It then would boot into the google icon and reset doing that as a bootloop. I put the phone aside for a bit and then tried restarting it the phone would start but after 5 min of use would freeze then crash. It keep starting up fully then crashing after 5 min. After a few times of that it went back into the bootloop of just the google logo on the white screen.
I also will see like fuzzy lines over the screen sometimes before the phone crashes, any advice?

You can contact Google pixel help as long as it's not in beta.
Have you tried holding power down about 7-10 seconds and while hold down power for those seconds, hold down vol up and then release vol up, then power. Should put you in a screen with options.

Completely stock Pixel 3 reboot loop

Hi,
Yesterday, I updated my Pixel 3 to the latest version of Android 10.
Today, my Pixel 3 was on like 3% battery, so I turned down the brightness. All of a sudden, the phone just turned off - black screen, and started rebooting constantly until the battery was completely dead. At home, I plugged it into the charger, waited a bit (phone kept rebooting) and after a while, I tried to boot / soft reset it multiple times. When I got to recovery mode and pressed one of the volume buttons to choose factory reset - boom, phone reboots. So, I tried Fastboot to at least get it recognized by my PC. It stays in Fastboot for a few seconds, then reboots.
Can anyone help me out? I need this fixed ASAP, I'm a delivery guy and need my phone to do my job
I had that once. Had to let the phone completely die, then keep it on charger for a few hours.
I got that problem yesterday too. Then I tried to stop the loop by holding Power button and up or down buttons. After that I entered Safe mode(not sure which of the two combinations worked), restart after and everything was fine.
