Your Android phone is stuck on the startup logo

Your phone is caught in a restart loop. Start by forcing it to shut down completely by holding the power button for at least 30 seconds, then turn it back on. If that does not work, try booting into Safe Mode where only essential apps run. This fixes it.

When an app crashes or a system update goes wrong, Android can get stuck trying to start up. Your phone keeps showing the logo without ever reaching the home screen. A complete power reset breaks this cycle. If it still does not work, Safe Mode disables all third-party apps so the system can start cleanly and you can remove whatever is causing the problem.
