My Google Pixel 4 XL stuck on the boot logo: How to Fix Boot loop Problem

Boot loops are the result of system files not knowing how to function during the initial start-up phase and can be caused by a variety of things, from downloading new apps to accidentally changing system files. Are you too facing boot loop issue with your Pixel 4 XL? then follow the below simple guide to fix the Boot loop Problem on Google Pixel 4 XL.

Usually, the device will boot fine. But sometimes, there will be some sort of error that prevents booting. This is a lot harder to handle than a program crashing when someone is using the device since a boot error affects the whole system—you can’t just force-close the program since the program, in this case, is supposed to run the whole device.

So, instead, you might decide that in this situation the device should reboot: turn itself off and back on, starting the boot process over again. Or maybe the reboot isn’t even your choice and results from some issue with the device’s electronics that automatically triggers a reboot.

So boot loop means when a device isn’t able to boot and instead reboots itself over and over again. The device will keep rebooting, never once reaching a usable state, until either it loses power (is unplugged or uses up its battery) or the error is fixed.

Fix Google Pixel 4 XL Bootloop

There can be many scenarios of the boot loop issue like if you are using custom ROM and have root access, installed an unknown magisk module and stuck in the boot loop or you simply did a restart and you are in a boot loop. In this particular post, we will be talking about the second scenario.

1. Factory Reset via Recovery

In case you don’t know what is recovery, the first thing the bootloader rings up is the recovery. Recovery Mode refers to a special bootable partition, which contains a recovery application installed in it. And you can fix some problems with your phone. Follow the steps to clear cache from recovery mode:

• Turn off your phone.
• Once it is turned off. Press and hold the power and volume down button simultaneously until the Google logo pops up.
• Release the Power button but keep holding down the Volume Down button until the recovery mode screen appears.
• Press the power button to boot into recovery mode.
• Once booted in recovery mode, use the volume buttons to highlight the Wipe data/factory reset option.
• Press the power button to select that option.
• After reset, simply reboot to the system by using the volume and power buttons.

2. Restore Pixel’s factory image

Flashing an image can be tricky for a normal user. We don’t suggest a normal user perform this step. Kindly contact the nearest Google Authorized Service Center to do it.
