My Fire HD 6 is stuck in some kind of loop that reboots the device about 20 seconds after the login screen comes up. The device has not been rooted or modified in any way. This happens as well when I login with my password and I can use the device for about 20 seconds before the screen goes dark and starts to reboot again. This will loop indefinitely if I leave the device on until the battery is drained. I've tried to do a hard restart by holding the start button for 20 seconds, but this does not make a difference. I also restarted in File Recovery mode, but the only choices there are to Reboot or Reset to Factory Settings (I do not want to lose my data). Are there any other tricks I can try to recover the access to my device?

[Q] Galaxy Nexus in Boot Loop after "Unfortunately system UI has stopped" error
Hi,
Out of the blue, after dragging about an app folder on my home screen, my system froze and this message popped up:
"Unfortunately system UI has stopped"
I had the option to report or press OK. I clicked OK. The phone operated for a few seconds then the error came back up, this time I couldn't click anything.
At this point I pulled the battery and replaced it. The phone booted up and i opened facebook, then the same error popped up again. Just like before I could click OK the first time but not the second time.
I pulled the battery again and it booted again, but the message soon popped up once more. (after a few seconds) This time however, the phone rebooted itself and after that, it rebooted again.
Eventually it would not go beyond the boot animation.
At this point I was panicking. I attempted rebooting in to Odin mode by holding down the volume down button and power button, but it just keeps telling me to wait or press power to start.
After that I tried fastboot and a factory reset from recovery but that didn't have any effect.
The battery is dead now so I have the phone charging. Any suggestions on where to go from here. If I turn it on it will just loop the boot animation with all the colours over and over.
Thanks!
The factory reset seems to have actually worked. It was taking a while to boot when the battery died right after I did it but when I booted it up this morning after charging it booted normally.
To factory reset boot in to fastboot by pushing and holding volume up + volume down + power then select "Recovery mode" when the image of the android robot shows up press power + volume up to get the menu and select factory reset from there.
Thanks for posting the solution. This was the first hit from a google search for "Galaxy nexus boot loop" and it was just what I needed.
My boot loop seemed to have started for a different reason. Apparently, moving away from a wifi access point while you're still connected causes the boot loop as well. I owned my nexus for about 1 hour before the boot loop happened, so I suppose I was relatively lucky.

I guess the SD internal is formatted when this happends and you factory reset? I lost all images and sms, damnit
Maybe this works without factory reset

Two people say that multiple reboots solved the problem. See http://j.mp/Vgwamr
Hi,
From yesterday, my KF keeps rebooting at Yellow Triangle, attempts to get into TRWP not succeceful. Although it turns to orange when pressed power button, it just keep reboots.
It reboots itself that no time allows to PC recoginise the Kindle fully, as soon as it showed as external disk called "Kindle" then disappears then re-appears.
It is however turns-off when pressed more than 10sec on power button.
I would like to know at this stage, whether do I need factory cable to revive it or any other methods may I can try.
Yes, at Kindle Fire Utility, it just say waiting for device forever.
Best regards
Heesang

Many thanks
Thank you soupmagnet,
I was able to re-install ADB driver from KFU (have to figure out change of install language code) and able to boot in normal mode between nick of time.
Now it continues to boot normal OS and as soon as it ready for operating, it shuts down automatically and backs to reboot, repeating of yellow triangle loops.
I still able to re-enter command to boot normal mode, however it keep repeats same thing again.

In his reply to you, he gave you 3 links to read. Read the first one.
Would love some help, please. I have a completely stock HTC One M8 for Sprint. Last night I plugged in the phone to the AC charger (still had ~70% charge) and went to sleep. This morning the charge indicator was green as usual, but pressing the power button did nothing. Unplugged the phone from the charger and the LED remained green.
Tried press-hold power button for 10 seconds: no effect.
Tried press-hold power button and volume down. Select HBOOT, then RECOVERY. The phone vibrates and shows me the skateboarding androids, then reverts to the FASTBOOT menu.

Tried requesting an Unlock_code.bin from HTCDev, then use fastboot to flash that. I see the transfer bar on my phone for an instant, but otherwise the display does not change. Still indicates *** LOCKED *** even though the fastboot command returned "OKAY".
Tried using abd.exe to list devices - none listed. Though fastboot.exe does return my serial number.
:fingers-crossed: Tried pres-hold power+volUP+volDWN for 2 minutes. Phone booted as normal, I swiped my unlock on the touchscreen, HTC Sync saw my phone, then the screen went black and I couldn't get it to boot. Sorry I did not notice what charge level the battery was in the GUI for the ~10 seconds the phone was on.

update - still won't boot, but ...
Update: still won't boot, but now I can get recover mode to run. Tried wiping cache partition and rebooting. Now it boots to the HTC (android) logo, then the Sprint animation plays, then the HTC One animation plays, though the audio portion only plays for the 1st second and cuts off suddenly. Then it just hangs there forever. I left it for an hour at that point just to make sure it wasn't booting really slowly.
Any way to boot from something on an SD card so that I can at least get my userdata partition backed up?

Sorry to say this, but all your data is gone since you factory reset from bootloader, that always wipe your phone. What recovery you had when you pressed it, if it was custom like trwp your internal sd is more likely corrupted. The easier option to get the phone back to working state is to run ruu if there is any for Sprint.

Thanks for the reply. Actually I listed my attempted fixes in order... i.e. I was able to get the phone to boot once for a few seconds - long enough to see my personal home screen and photos - after I had clicked on that factory reset option.
I have a theory. The RAM is bad. That would explain why sometimes it will partly boot and then get stuck, other times it will get stuck in a bootloop to the fastboot menu, and other times (only one time so far) it will completely boot. Also, if I go to the RAMDUMP option, at the bottom of that screen it shows mostly non-ASCII characters and vibrates every ~5 seconds. If I go to IMAGE CRC, it sometimes instantly shows 0x0 next to each device, other times takes a while to calculate believable values for each, and other times won't display anything and freezes.
Think that's plausible? Suppose there is any way to boot from sdcard and retrieve my userdata partition? I did not have a sdcard in when this originally happened, so all my family photos are in userdata and I haven't backed up since my 4-year old's birthday party last weekend.
Any way to get my userdata off this phone, or do an in place upgrade without hosing m
Anyone? Help?
My Nexus 5X had a bootloop issue in the past. I fixed it with a 4-core recovery and boot image patch, but now it seems to be back. Whenever I boot up the phone, it always freezes after about 15 seconds, with no variation in time. This happens when booting normally (freezes at Google logo), booting into recovery (also freezes at Google logo), fastboot mode (freezes after about 15 seconds), and download mode (powers off after about 10 seconds). In all but the last situation, the phone completely freezes up and can only be rebooted by holding down the power button. The only other mode that does work is 9008 mode, which I can enter by disconnecting and reconnecting the battery and plugging my phone into my computer. Is there anything I can do to get this phone working again or get my files off it?
My phone is TA-1043. All of the sudden my phone started to restart itself. The power options started to popup from right side automatically and the phone started to restart. Afterwards, I somehow managed to reset the phone but the problem solved for few hours until I connected it to wifi the google play store started to update some apps. I remember there was an unknown app which was installed automatically and again to phone started to restart. This happened after reset and I didn't even signed in my account at that time. I even managed to open recovery but the response there was unresponsive. The phone quickly rebooted itself from recovery mode and got stuck in bootloop. There is no charging animation which shows percentages. There is other charging animation the one without percentage and after putting it on for charge for fews mins the phone automatically starts, stucks in the start screen/Android one and again restarts. As per Nokia, there is an issue with board. And the price quote of the board is more than the phone itself. Kindly share complete details that how can I fix my phone. If the issue is with the board then the phone shouldn't even turn on or go into recovery mode or download mode.
