Hi all, hoping someone can help. Having a large issue with my N5 today - a short time ago, the screen went blank and it went into a very strange bootloop; it doesn't even reach the flashing circles, it keeps doing the "Google" screen and initial buzz over and over. I held down the volume key and power button during this process to get it into bootloader mode; however, I only saw the menu for a split second before it rebooted over again back to the Google screen. Thinking that it could have something to do with the battery, I plugged in the charger, but the process continued; however, when I unplugged the charger after reading this recent thread that seems very similar to mine, the phone went dead, unresponsive to any button pushes or attempts to restart. When I plug the cord back in, it goes back into the continual boot phase loop.
I haven't used my phone much today, and was not using it when this started happening; I was working and noticed it out of the corner of my eye. I don't think I've done anything out of the ordinary with it recently either. I tell you, I'm definitely missing the ability to do a manual battery pull right now! Does anyone have any hints or tips how I might fix this? Should I let it continue to loop, or will that damage it somehow? Thanks a lot.
