Thanks a lot for this man. Spamming the power button did it for me. Definitely feels like some dust got where it shouldn't and made it reboot constantly.
All i would add for myself - Took me 2 x to figure out: make sure you are doing it AGGRESSIVELY! I am a big guy and it only worked when I was pressing the POWER button as fast and as hard as I could. Good luck!
Like others here, this video saved my Pixel 3. It just started the reboot loop out of nowhere. I came across this video, saw the parts about tapping on the screen, massaging the phone, and spamming the power button. I thought it sounded wacky but what did I have to lose. And damned if it didn't work. Thank you so much!!!!
You just saved my phone, the laying the phone on its side and tapping the power button is what did it for me. I was stuck in a reboot loop for almost 2 hours prior to this
This is unbelievable. I was stuck on the Google screen on my Pixel 5, on/off all the time. I saw the taps and thought "yeah, sure" and it worked!!! Thank you so much for the video and for helping me have my phone for another day
Spamming the power button while charging did it for me! It broke the boot loop and the phone started up. I had tried pressing the power button and volume down button simultaneously but that didn't work. Same with the power button and volume up button. No combination of pressing and holding worked. Thanks a lot!
Very helpful video. Just thought I would share that while repeatedly pressing the power button my phone started sounding an alarm and called 911. Was not expecting that. During this exercise the SD card was removed. I am still working to resolve my black screen, only on round 2/7. Thanks
Thank you for this video. My Pixel 5 cut off and wouldn't cut back on, I thought it was a battery issue and even filed a claim through AT&T. I was dreading it because Asurion is a terrible service (much like everything else AT&T) and this video saved me a lot of headache.
Spamming the power button....incredible. Wasted hours on every variation of power + volume down and power + volume up ad infinitum, but the power button spamming did the trick. THANK YOU!
Went through everything the first time and I was still stuck. Freezer killed the battery but it booted up in a loop again. After seeing the power button spam working for a lot of people in the comments, I repeated that step and I'm up and running again. Thanks for the video
Thank you so much. I went through every step and it wasn't working. I was convinced it was to do with the power button, so I did the power button spam again and within a few seconds it booted up. 👍🏻 This was on a Pixel 5.
verizon in nebraska had no recommendations, the data recover store they recommended wanted me to ship the phone to California and quoted me $900 - $3900 for data recovery. Smashed the power button 150 times and then chugged a beer while turning it on- ill give you credit on this one but we cannot discount the power of prayer and cold beer.
We had a Pixel 5 stuck in the boot cycle. It looked pretty grim, nothing from the video worked. But after letting the phone complete die over night then plugging it in and spamming the power botton it work! Thanks for the help
Thank you!!! I seriously thought I was going to have to buy a new phone. "Spamming" the power button fixed it. I had no idea what to do or that THAT would work, of all things. Crazy! THANK YOU!!!!!
Absolute life saver! I have a very impatient father who was having a meltdown because his 4a went into bootloop on the way to take my mother to the airport. Hard reset didn't work for him so then I looked this video up and the power button spam saved it!! Thank you!!
I was skeptical about the time you started tapping into your hand. I followed along and found spamming power while plugged in did the trick for my pixel 4a. Thank you!!!
I cannot believe this worked. It's like back in the day when people used to smack their TV for a better reception. (Really, this was a thing for older folks.) Thanks for posting.
Great video - saved my pixel 2 XL! When he started the tapping/massaging/slapping methods, I was just about to ditch the video...BUT THE SLAPPING METHOD WORKED!! Thank you WoT!!
Thanks for this man. Spamming the power button fixed it. I was ready to buy a new phone. I probably still will but at least now I can do it on my terms. I was hoping to wait for Black Friday deals.
Thank you very much! It worked! The power button spamming helped me also. I just did it for 10-15 seconds and it booted. Pixel 4a, it was in a case always. When I took out, it was dirty, probably some particles from my pocket got stuck somewhere there.
It works! Especially the tapping and massaging method. I have to do this about every 4 months. Be careful with the spamming button method, your phone is default to call 911 when you press the button 5 times in a row. It happened to me. You can turn off that function in settings
Dude thanks for this video. my phone was going absolutely apeshit and i could tell the power button was being activated nonstop but didnt think to beat the shit out it. worked like a charm!!
Spamming the power button seems to have worked for me - what an absolute star, thank you so much! My phone is my alarm for work and its after midnight right now so I thought I was gonna be late in the morning!
@@debrat.780 As far as I remember it will take a while of spamming.. I kept pushing the power button many times until it worked (I didn't have anything to do other than that)
Bro, I was just about to buy a new phone.. Stuck in boot loop for the past hour, trying several different things, but couldn't get the boot menu to actually do anything.. Spamming the power button finally worked for some reason! Thank you!
Worked on my second time through, step two spamming the power button. Probably didnt spam it enough or quickly enough the first time through. Thank you.
I was really hyped about spamming power button after reading the comments, unfortunately that did not do the trick for me, even after exhausting most of tips on-line. I found a single forum post advising to lightly hit the power button against something solid, like a table edge, and it actually worked! I'm not sure I would try that if I did not hear about spamming from your video, so points to you. (Just remember to add some padding inbetween if your table is made of softer wood - learnt that the hard way, lmao)
I am not used to leave comments, but thanks man. I had a rebooting issue with my Pixel 3 XL, and I cannot acces Safemode or other maintenance menu without the phone rebooting, making it dead. I haven't thought about tapping it on the power button, and it worked for me !
It took three full rounds of all the instructions including three 15 minutes rounds in the freezer. And then it worked. Thanks for saving me (at least for now) from buying a new phone!
GENIUS!!!! I was bootlooped for 1 hour and the power button pressing worked!!! You just saved me $$$. Keep up the content. This is TH-cam value at its finest!!! THANK YOUUUUU!!!
For me it was the power button stuck. Took the case off and spammed the power button and it finally finished booting up. Thanks for the video! Very useful.
tried all the things.... wasn't hopeful as I had been stuck in the boot loop for two days and phone wouldn't even charge. THE FREEZER WORKED!!! thank you.... I thought all was lost.
Wow I was very doubtful and almost gave up after I heard about the "freezer" method that sounds dangerous. But It somehow started working after slapping the phone. Thank you! I've never had this happen before with any phone ive had, including Nexus phones. I am starting to doubt the quality of Google phones now.
WOW! You are a lifesaver! Can't believe this worked. For me it was 15 min in the freezer, plug in the phone to charge and then tapping the on/off button like a crazy person. It worked. No idea why, but it worked. Thank you!
Okay I don't know how, and I don't know why and I rarely ever leave comments on TH-cam videos, but this one worked and saved my life (re: my phone). Thank you so much!
Thanks a lot for this man. Spamming the power button did it for me. Definitely feels like some dust got where it shouldn't and made it reboot constantly.
Same. This video was a god send.
Agreed, thanks man
All i would add for myself - Took me 2 x to figure out: make sure you are doing it AGGRESSIVELY! I am a big guy and it only worked when I was pressing the POWER button as fast and as hard as I could. Good luck!
holy shit, thank you, that worked.
Same here, was about 15 mins from buying a new phone

Step two saved my pixel 3... Shit was resetting for two straight days. Didn't think was that simple. Thanks boss 😊
Spamming the power button on a pixel 4a did it for me. On the second try. I really didn't believe it before trying. Thanks a lot !
Thank you for this video. My Pixel 5 cut off and wouldn't cut back on, I thought it was a battery issue and even filed a claim through AT&T. I was dreading it because Asurion is a terrible service (much like everything else AT&T) and this video saved me a lot of headache.
step 2 did the trick for me.... very nice & helpful tipp! never thought that would bring my pixel back to life !!!
Spamming the power button....incredible. Wasted hours on every variation of power + volume down and power + volume up ad infinitum, but the power button spamming did the trick. THANK YOU!
Started looping out of nowhere, spamming the power button aggressively fixed it for me
Same and same. This video saved me.

Pixel 4, spamming the power button worked. You're a hero!
My wife's pixel 3 is stuck in a boot loop and she did the screen tapping method and it worked! Thank you.
Went through everything the first time and I was still stuck. Freezer killed the battery but it booted up in a loop again. After seeing the power button spam working for a lot of people in the comments, I repeated that step and I'm up and running again. Thanks for the video
You saved my phone man. Thanks a ton. My pixel 3 started boot loop out of no where. Spamming the power button solved the issue.

Thanks man. Tapping the phone on random areas did the magic for me
Genius! Can´t believe tapping the back and jamming the power button worked. Simple solutions are the best ones.Thanks!
Thank you very much! It worked! The power button spamming helped me also. I just did it for 10-15 seconds and it booted. Pixel 4a, it was in a case always. When I took out, it was dirty, probably some particles from my pocket got stuck somewhere there.
Outstanding! Thanks for the help! Tapping back and front got my 3a out of boot mode. Now I need to start looking for a new phone!
This technique has helped me immensely, you deserve an award sir and God bless you
The freezer part finally did it for me! Thanks for the video.
The spamming strategy just saved my phone. Thank you so much you legend!
When I tell you my jaw DROPPED at the fact that spamming the power button worked??
That's hilarious... thank you so much.
thanks a lot, pressing the power button over and over worked for me
Fixed it! Amazing. Was stuck in this damn loop for hours, tapping the power button multiple times fixed it for me. Cheers.
Thank you SO much, thought my phone was toast, but repeatedly hitting the power button finally got me going again!
Thank you sooooo much! Spamming the Power Button worked very well. My phone was already heating up....
You are my hero. spamming power and cleaning it with a needle worked for me
Power button spamming worked. Thank you again so much for your video. Thumbs up!
It works! Especially the tapping and massaging method. I have to do this about every 4 months. Be careful with the spamming button method, your phone is default to call 911 when you press the button 5 times in a row. It happened to me. You can turn off that function in settings
