When your phone won't turn on, displays the Android logo, or just reboots over and over, it can be quite frustrating. This guide will walk you through the steps you can take to try to resolve this issue yourself.
Tools You'll Need:
Plug your phone or tablet in to charge, and allow it to charge for at least 30 minutes.
Modern smartphone and tablet batteries have an overheat and over-voltage sensor. Allowing it to charge for a while will usually allow the small chip that controls this to reset, charge the phone, and the battery charge level to be double-checked. All of this can only happen when connected to an external power source.
While there used to be ways to 'force' resets of this hardware, most of those options have been removed, in favor of the much simpler "charge for a while" method that happens automatically.
Modern smartphones and tablets tend to have non-removable batteries and a sophisticated set of sensors that try their best to "fail-safe". In other words, they won't allow the device to start if the battery is wet or shorted, or if there's some other problem with the device itself.
Servicing a modern cellphone or tablet is not simple. It involves specialized tools and intimate knowledge of the internals. There is a full computer's worth of hardware in each, compressed and carefully engineered to fit in such a small package. Plus, there is a battery, and along with that the risk of fire or explosion should it be punctured or damaged.
If your device still refuses to power on, either a small chip inside has failed and would need to be replaced and resoldered to fix, or the battery has failed and would need to be replaced. Both options require specialized work environments and tools, and are beyond what this guide can assist with.
You can boot your Android phone into safe mode which allows you to troubleshoot problems with your device. While in safe mode, any downloaded apps will be greyed out and not function. 
Phone Does Not Boot
Some phones use different methods to reach Safe Mode. If the following steps don't get into safe mode, consult the user manual or OEM for instructions on how to reach Safe Mode.
Phone Boots (Newer Android Phone Updated Late 2018 or Later)
Sometimes after updates, some apps may not function as intended. This can cause your phone to crash and even sometimes not boot. If you're experiencing issues, you may want to remove a recently installed or updated app.
There are multiple ways to uninstall an application on your Android device. Select the one you are most comfortable with.
Uninstall an App From the Home Screen or App Menu
Uninstall an App From Settings
Uninstall an App From the Play Store
You can reinstall the app at any time in the future. Apps purchased from the Play Store are tracked, and should not bill you a second time if you re-install them.
If the menu does not pop up, continue to hold the power button, and your Android device will shut off.
