A familiar problem on Android phones is boot loop, which is a condition where the cellphone cannot enter the system or is just stuck on the logo. Even worse, the HP is completely dead and cannot be turned on.
The causes of this problem vary, one of which is the failure to upgrade the OS, whether it's upgrading via OTA, PC software (example: Samsung KIES), or flashing the firmware.
Now, for those of you who are experiencing the HP boot loop, on this occasion I will provide several ways to solve it based on the experiences I have experienced.
How to Overcome HP (Android) Bootloop
Until now, I have experienced several boot loops on the Android cellphone that I use. Mostly because the ROM used does not match, but also because it failed to change the font.
For how to fix this, I usually do it in stages, starting from the simplest way to the quite complicated method. Want to know? here are these ways:
Restart HP

The first step you should try when experiencing an HP boot loop is to restart it. This method usually works when the boot loop type is a light boot loop.
Here's how:
Turn off the cellphone by pressing the power button for a few moments.
After the cellphone turns off, remove the battery (except the embedded HP battery), SIM card, and memory card.
Next, please reinstall some of the items that were previously removed.
Finally, please try turning on your cellphone.
If it turns out that your cellphone can boot and enter the Android system, chances are that your cellphone problem is just a light boot loop.
Wipe Cache

The next method that can be said to be easy and safe is to wipe cache partition. This method will not delete the data on your cellphone.
To wipe the cache partition, please follow these steps:
- First, please enter your HP Recovery. To do this, press the Power button + Volume Up / Power + Volume Down / Home + Power + Power Up (please try one by one).
- After that, you will be taken to Android Recovery Mode. If a sleeping robot image appears, please press the Power button.
- Next, select wipe cache partition and wait for the process to finish.
- If so, select reboot system now to re-enter the Android system.
- Wait for the boot process to complete.
- For initial booting (after wiping cache), it might take a long time, yes, longer than booting in general. Just an illustration, Android will boot in the range of 5 -10 minutes.
Factory Reset

A factory reset is to return the cellphone to its original settings. So, all applications or files on your Android phone will disappear and return to normal.
How to do a factory reset is almost similar to the previous method, here are the details:
First, please enter your HP Recovery. To do this, press the Power button + Volume Up / Power + Volume Down / Home + Power + Power Up (please try one by one).
After that, you will be taken to Android Recovery Mode.
If you have entered recovery, select wipe data/factory reset. If there is confirmation whether you really want to do a factory reset, please select Yes.
Please wait for the process to finish, it usually takes a little longer.
When finished, select reboot system now and wait for the boot to finish.
As with wipe cache, you also have to be a little patience to wait for the cellphone that has just done a factory reset.
Flashing ROM

Flash is the most powerful way to overcome a boot loop cellphone. This method can be said to be the ultimate way that Android operators often do if the previous method didn't work.
If you have installed CWM / TWRP permanently on an Android cellphone, then you can flash the ROM via cellphone. However, if your cellphone has not installed these features, then you must use a PC.
The most important thing to pay attention to when flashing a ROM is choosing the right firmware. Because if the firmware is not compatible with the cellphone, the flashing process will not work or the cellphone will still boot loop.
So, those are some ways to overcome the Android boot loop. The method above usually works when your cellphone is boot loop due to software problems (failed flash, wrong ROM, etc.), not because of a hardware problem such as eMMC.
This is the article that I can deliver on this occasion. Hopefully, this article can be useful and help you in overcoming a bootloop cellphone.
