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.

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.
Hello,
I flashed the latest LRX22C image on my nexus 5 today.Had flashed it clean,wiping data,cache and system etc except the Internal Storage.Then I flashed the SUPERSU 2.37 ZIP .Everything was fine for about 4 hours.Then suddenly when I pressed the power button to turn the screen off,it was not turning off and the "Switch off" mode was popping up instead .Then, when I got a call,it switched off.The phone won't turn on again.It starts,the Google Boot Splash appears and the bootanimation starts for like 2 seconds and it switches off.Same thing for bootloader mode.
Please Help me!
EDIT: Now its turning on by itself and switches off in 2 seconds!
Sounds like a bad power switch to me, but of course that is just my opinion. :good:
sounds like a mech issue.

I have the same problem on mine now... Basically my phone powered down around 45%. Battery. At the time i thought it was dead... But it wasnt. When i would plug into external power, either usb or through wireless charging it would power cycle continuously at the android splash screen.... (1 to 2 second intervals - even if i booted into fastboot) Interestingly it would never go to the battery charging mode. But automatically boot on charge... It did this for about 6 hours then i gave up and left it unplugged for a day. I plugged it back in and it started power cycling again, however this time on its third boot it came back to life . thats when i discovered i still had 40% battery... I dont know what exactly made it boot but it did. Oddly also on boot, it started optimising apps and finishing install again. I checked the md5 before I installed the update so no issue there. Since it powered up i have powered the phone off using the power button long push and let the phone power down. After doing this when i plug the phone in to usb charge it goes to the charge screen. No issue. That said, if i try to power up while tethered and charging it will not allow it. It just stays at the charge screen. As soon as i unplug the usb the power button allows the phone to power up and work... When booted up it charges as normal when plugged in. Im convinced there is an issue with the power management drivers or drivers for the button controls. My phone worked fine until the 5.0.1 update was installed. On my nexus 5. Anyone else or just us two? Ive had a hard time finding people posting on this issue.
Just some minutes ago my S7 froze because of Focus Gallery App. I don't exactly know what it did but the phone did not respond any more.
So pressing the power button did not bring back the phone either. After searching for a bit I found a way to simulate a bettery disconnect by pressing Volume Down + Power Button.
The Phone came back up and displayed the initial boot logo. Also the blue LED is on. But nothing happens from here on. I do not come to the "Samsung" boot animation and the phone simply
does nothing. Retriying Volume Down + Power Button doesn't seem to help too. I tryed all button combinations but nothing brings the phone back.
I also cannot enter the recovery menu. So no chance to reset to default settings.
I am running a stock Android on the phone. Nothing was done by me. No custom ROM, no root, just plain Samsung Android.
Is there sill something I can do?
Edit: I just got into whats seems to be ODIN Mode??? Can I do something from here?
Oddly this happened to me last night although I may have inadvertently done it. But the only way I was able to get my phone functioning again was reflashing the OS to the phone.
How did you manage to get the phone into Odin mode? I'm having the same issue with the phone being totally unresponsive but the blue LED on.
if you can reboot your phone with the VOL Down/Power, when the screen goes black, quickly press and hold VOL Up, Home and Power. it should enter recovery. or hold Vol down, Home and Power to enter the download screen.
I have the S7 Edge (rooted, custom ROM) and it's running fine. My girlfriend's regular S7 is having the same issue though.
When she plugged it in to charge last night, she checked it a few minutes later at which point the phone had (started to) reboot. The blue notification LED was on and the screen had frozen at the 'SA' from the 'SAMSUNG' startup logo. Forced a reboot with down+power, resulting in just the blue LED (no logo this time). Phone was unresponsive (couldn't force a reboot again) so left the battery to drain overnight. The phone is completely dead today even after charging - no LED, no boot, no anything.
I'm not sure if she had the phone scheduled to perform an update overnight and it froze halfway through, but that would be my first guess. So far, no fix.
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.
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.
