Hi, i just bought a Poco X3 NFC 128Gb, after 3 hours of use, you know, initial config, app downloading, sing in, etc. I put the phone into my pocket and five minutes later when i tried to unlock it, the phone was death, not responding to anything, i tried to connect charger but nothing happened, not even a led turns on o react, i forced reboot but the only feedback i get was one long vibration followed by one short and nothing else, that every time i tried, i tried all combination of buttons, including keeping one key pressed and repeatedly press power but nothing, i tried to connect it to my PC but it was not detected, i'm advanced user so i have all the drivers, all the tools, not working with community tools i tried, not working with mi flash, not working with mi desktop suite, not working with adb or fastboot or even recognized.
after pressing and pressing buttons i tried holding the volumen - key plus pressing power key and releasing it in spaces of 5 seconds, after 3 o 5 tries it got a big vibration and the power led started to bright, my PC reproduced the device connected sound but it doesn't appear, not adb, not fastboot, not mi flash, anything, it react to certain touches to the screen and the wrong finger vibration when i use the wrong finger in the power button/ Fingerprint reader but nothing else, not sounds, not reactions no any other buttons, or anything to think it was a dead screen only, i tried everything over and over again and no more progress so i give up and send it to warranty with the hope no *tupid excuse by the seller, I'm waiting for an answer so, can any of you give me one please, what happened.
Before i forget, the screen never showed anything again, no logo, no fastboot, no recovery, no backlit even, just black screen of death. Help Please!
Sorry for any mistake in writing, I haven't use English in an exceedingly long time.
Mate, even if the factory has done its QA, some dud devices still make it out into the wild.
Looks like you got one. Hope the seller gets you a new phone fast...
Hi,
Today there was software update notification which is 2.5GB, my phone does not have that space so I'm sure I did not go for the update.
My phone is constantly rebooting.
What I tried,
- Pressed Power + Vol down button, I see fastboot screen but that stays only for 2-3 seconds and goes to boot loop
- Power + Vol up button, now boot loop shows Reboot, Wipe Data, Connect with MIAssistant for 1 sec and reboots to show same options, I can't select Reboot or MIAssistant option it just reboots.
How can I fix this without losing data? I have some 2FA authentication with Google Authy which is essential and cannot lose.
Please help
Thank you.

I have the same issue
Hey guys, did any of you solve the problem?
My wife's phone was tracking dinner delivery and right after delivered, phone started rebooting, I can't find any similar issue before June 22 on Google, probably some update bricked some phones?
I bought us 2 poco x3 nfc in December 2020 and so far I was super happy and not feeling like I had to upgrade...
I doubt it's going to help but now I'm waiting it to run out of battery completely to try to do a complete fresh start.
Well... Turns out it worked. It was looping even when it ran out of battery, you can see by the led on the call speaker. Some hours later there was no sign of battery so I plugged the charger, still no response of any key or keys but after 30/45mins, suddenly phone woke up with 65% battery and booted up normally.
I found a solution, I just pressed the off button for 30 sec and then a new screen appears where you can chose restart to system or something like that and it works. Hope it helps somebody
Having this issue too, it's like something is pushing down the power button/fingerprint sensor.
Bootloops then anytime eyou touch the sensor it goes straight to the shutdown restart screen or just reboots the phone, Any suggestion before i give in and order a pixel 6
solution to this problem is the power bottom sensor which is shorted..
solution is replaced but for i just disable the power sensor bottom by covering 1 terninal of the volume ribbon.
Hi.
Yesterday I had the same problem, the device kept restarting every 10 seconds, it didn't even come to any screen besides the first one with the POCO logo in yellow.
Things I tried that did NOT work:
restart
hard restart
fastboot (it did enter the fastboot mode, but only showing the picture of the 2 robots and after 10 seconds restarting again to the POCO logo image)
plug it to power
plug it to computer
After 3 hours of continuous restarting and trying anything I could find in the internet and I could imagine of (except extracting the battery because it seemed complicated and difficult to revert), I tried randomly something that miraculously worked...don't ask me why.
pressing the power button shortly and quickly around 30 times (it might have worked after 10 or 20 times, but I just kept doing it a little longer
Afterwards it just started as if nothing had happened...doesn't make any sense, but I just wanted to tell you in case you are in a similar situation and desperate to not lose all the images and videos as I was yesterday.

It works! This is some solution totally unexpected but it works for some unexplainable reason.
I am glad I found this post. Many thanks to @Someone_anyone

my son's phone had the same problem, and this was indeed the solution:
press power button quick and short very fast several times, and suddenly it boots normal.

This is a super amazing finding. Glad you shared it here bro.. it solved the same issue for my Poco X3 GT as well.
Just keep on clicking continuously on the power and bamm it stops the endless reboot looping issue.

Hi,
Thank you for this amazing solution, it worked for me too.
Do you know the reason of the bootloop? Has it happened again since sept? I mean, should I get ready to the death of my phone?...

I went to a little bit more of 30 btw.
Thank you.
