Among the problems that the Android operating system can give us, we must stop to know one of the most common failures in smartphones, the bootloop , which we must know how to identify and what options we have to solve it.
Android is an operating system that offers us a multitude of options and great flexibility, but despite having years of development behind it is not exempt from failures . Sometimes these failures are motivated by hardware and at other times by the Android operating system itself.
First of all we must be clear about what a bootloop was, which we could define as a hang during the initialization phase of the operating system. To understand it better, a bootloop happens when our phone does not start and remains standing showing the Android logo or brand.
The immediate consequence is that we can not use our mobile, which can cause quite a lot of despair, but I encourage you to continue reading to discover possible solutions.
Generally the causes of a bootloop are the modification of operating system files or that have been damaged after an update process. To solve this problem, my first advice is patience and wait at least 15 minutes with the phone showing the logo. If after 15 minutes Android does not start, we will have to move on to other options.
Needless to say that if the phone is under warranty, you have to return it immediately and give us one that works properly . Otherwise, we have the option of trying to return the smartphone to its factory state by a hard reset .
The second option for advanced users is to try flashing a factory image of our model and smartphone brand. This solution requires advanced knowledge and googling enough to find the necessary information for our mobile model, so I only recommend this option to advanced users.
