Nexus 5X bootloop
Nexus 5X bootloop
Hello,
My 5x has gone into the dreaded bootloop and I was wondering if there were any other options that I might try. I was on vacation and the phone started acting up with the display going mental and what looked like it was responding to phantom touches. Things flipping on and off, the notification shade going up and down and some UI freezes. Booting into safe mode seemed to fix it so I tried uninstalling any apps that were recently updated but nothing seemed to work so I just decided to limp home in safe mode so I could recover all my pictures. Once that was accomplished I figured I would try the O beta because I was going to do a hard reset anyway. The O beta installed fine but when I reset the phone it went into the bootloop.
What I've tried so far:
Wiping the cache partition from recovery (3X)
Performing a hard reset from recovery (2X)
Tied all of the above charging and unplugged.
Googling around seems to suggest that this is a hardware issue and the phone is toast.
I plan on contacting Google Support once they open. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
