A bootloop is a condition where a device, typically a smartphone or computer, repeatedly attempts to start up but fails to complete the process, leading to a continuous cycle of restarting. This phenomenon occurs when the operating system or critical system files become corrupted, preventing the device from fully booting into its normal operational state. Common causes include failed software updates, incompatible application installations, root access modifications that went wrong, or even hardware failures.

When a device enters a bootloop, the user will usually see the manufacturer's logo or a splash screen appear, followed by a restart, and this sequence repeats indefinitely. The device becomes unusable as it never reaches the home screen or desktop. Troubleshooting bootloops often involves attempting to access the device's recovery mode, a special partition that allows for system maintenance tasks. From recovery mode, users might be able to perform a factory reset, which wipes all user data and reinstalls the operating system, or clear the system cache.

In more severe cases, or if the device is still under warranty, contacting the manufacturer or seeking professional repair may be necessary. If the bootloop is caused by a hardware issue, software solutions will not resolve the problem, and a repair or replacement of the faulty component will be required. Understanding the potential causes and recovery methods can help users manage and potentially resolve bootloop situations.
