hey guys, i am hearing that the S8 is having boot looping issues like LG's old phones...is this real? and heard that samsung is telling the people to exchange their phones....does this mean they won't fix it? what is going on?
Just ran into a boot loop issue this morning where the phone rebooted 7 or 8 times before it stabilized. Will do some digging to see if I can find the cause.

Hi all, I'm facing issue on my new G2 - It's not big deal, but I really want to get rid off this. My G2 getting restart by itself when I unlock the screen. It doesn't happening every time. But once this happen G2 shows me only LG logo and takes about 15-20 seconds to restart whole interface. Is there anyone who facing same issue? Or anyone with any idea how to fix this?
Thanks in advance!

try doing a factory reset. keep in mind you will lose all info on phone.
I have same problem too. I tried factory reset but problem not solved
Same here as well. Just got the phone yesterday and today it rebooted about ten times already! Not including twice after I did a master reset. I'm thinking about returning it.

I tried factory reset and so far so good. I'll update you to tomorrow.
So from yesterdays factory reset issue doesn't appear yet. So for me solved. I hope. Very much.
I solved the problem.
The problem was about Gmail 4.6 upgrade
Downgrading to 4.5 version worked
I found EXACTLY the same problem. I did not want to teset my phone, it's like resetting my life!
Luckily, reverting to the Gmail app 4.5 literally solved my problem instantaneously.
I have a Verizon version.

Hi
So my Nexus 4 ran great until the 4.3 update. Since then it has started doing random shutdowns. I have searched the internet and forums looking for possible causes. I first swapped the battery and the problem continued. Since then I have done two factory resets to try to see if the problem was app related. Still no luck. My most recent attempt to fix the issue was doing a manual upgrade following a posting on here to upgrade to 4.4. Which installed successfully, but still did not fix the random shutdowns.
After the random shutdown I cannot even get the phone to boot back up without plugging it in to some power source. When I do get it booted back up the battery has dropped from the usual 60%+ to usually under 15%. While plugged in however the battery then seems to "charge" at an accelerated rate...
I have been dealing with this 4 to 5 times a day and it is a major inconvenience
Anyone have any other suggestions or ideas on what I can do to possibly fix this?
Patterns
I've been trying to watch for patterns as well and it seems that the phone signal completely drops out shortly before the phone cuts off as well
help
same problems and attempts here no luck with no luck finding out what happened and no way finding the way to fix it
So recently ever since the android 5.0.0 update I have been experiencing my phone randomly shutdown, or more a less in a crashing manor since it never does the shutting down dialog it just goes black. It happens especially when my battery is below %50 but not fully discharged. At first I thought maybe it was just the stock rom and one of its possible glitchs, but then I changed over to CyanogenMod 11 and it is still doing the same thing. Im thinking its something physical with the phone because out of rage , and hopefully no judging, I punched my phone and it happened again. I dont see why it happened because and dont think that the punch was the direct cause because it happens in my pocket, and I even gave it a violent shake just to see if that was one of the problems. Has anyone experienced this? Ive looked through other posts and none of the fixes seem to work. Ive had the phone for over a year and a half and now since I installed 5.0.0 its restarting randomly.

same issue here
i am also facing same issue here and havent found any solution for the same,
any suggestions what cna be done..?
Hey guys, I was using my phone today as per usual but for some reason, the app I was using crashed and then the phone shut off. The phone then went into a boot loop and I thought it'd be an easy fix to just reformat the phone/factory reset, however, these solutions didn't work.
So I went to Factory Image for Nexus and installed 7.1.2 (N2G48B, Jul 2017) with the script and line by line but there is still no success. The phone just turns on, has the "Google" boot screen then turns back off. I am unable to get into recovery and nothing that I tried worked.
I tried looking around for a fix and there are some wacky solutions that people have used and had some success like using a heat gun on it and letting it die out but I feel like that's unsafe.
I also tried this but it also didn't work.
Can anyone help me with this issue?
(Also my 6P is out of warranty so I'm pretty much screwed)

Most of the users facing same issue. Till date no solution for this. It's due to mother board problem. Since it's out of warranty your situation is more worse.
This is a Nexus 6P (32GB) I rooted shortly after getting it (new) in September 2016, and updated to stock 7.1.2 in August 2017, but I otherwise haven't modified it from its out-of-the-box state.
Until recently, I'd never experienced any issues - no random reboots, battery was still pretty good, etc. Then last week, the phone rebooted suddenly, and appeared to "boot loop". I hadn't yet heard about the issues the 6P has with this so I powered it down, left it alone for a while, then turned it back on later, booted without incident, and forgot about it.
Last night it happened again, at which point I searched and learned of the dreaded "boot loop of death" the 6P specifically has had issues with. Hoping that wasn't the issue, I again powered down and tried it this morning, and it only stayed awake for about 5 minutes before going into boot loop. At this point I looked up and applied the fix described in this thread, but to my dismay it had no (visible) effect - I still see the initial "bootloader is unlocked" screen, then the google + open lock icon, repeat ad nauseum.
About all I can do with the phone right now is load into fastboot. The phone has data on it I'd really like to recover, is there a way I can do that from there? If not, is there any way to connect with ADB without getting through a full boot? Are there alternative boot loop fixes, alternative steps to the fix described? I've read several threads here and can't tell if any apply to me, and can't find any answers to the above.
I've accepted that the phone is probably never going to be the same again but I need to get my data off there and do a few quick things before I consign this one to paperweight duty. Thanks in advance

I have the exact same issue. I run the same version operating system as you have an unlocked bootloader otherwise have not modified the typical system install. I did already have the fix applied from an earlier incident but now it is boot looping and won't stop. I have red threads here and there that have advised to apply heat to the phone and that might get it to boot at least to get your data off. Myself I have had no such luck with this technique but perhaps it will work for you otherwise I have since moved on to the OnePlus 6t. A very awesome replacement not to mention at a decent price for more horsepower and storage

Just in case it helps anyone with this phone and issue, I was able to get a couple more boots out of it, enough to rescue some data, by doing the "15 minutes in the freezer in a ziploc bag" trick.
RIP Nexus 6P, shame about the BLOD!
