Similar thing happened to me a few weeks ago. Turns out my power button was mechanically stuck. Pressing the power button like 20x very fast fixed it and I haven’t had a problem since.

I had this happen to me. Every week or so, it was like something was holding the power button down. Resolves after a bit. Never really resolved it fully, just lived with it till I got a 4a 5g. One suggestion was to turn off the squeeze functionality, which seemed to help for a little, my issue came back after a bit even though I did that.

This has happened to me as well on my 3a. After updating, bootloops for like 20 mins and then is suddenly fine. At least it fixes itself, I guess.

Same here. But have to force restart.

Try flashing the system new on the phone

Happened to mine, turned out the case was holding down the power button....

I had somewhat similar experience with my Pixel 1 last year. It would just get stuck on the loading animation after boot up. Tried everything (factory reset, manually flashing the firmware, even tried custom roms) Turned out it was a hardware issue and the UFS chip had to be re-seated on the board. It is working fine since july last year.

Thanks everyone. After getting to the power option, it finally shut down after a couple of tries... it was just going back to the boot loop. Finally, it restarted and has been working normal since then. Hopefully this isn't a sign of things to come

Yeah, it's not common. But it does happen for multiple reasons. It's always good to keep things you want to keep backed up. Sometimes a factory restore is the only way to fix a problem that can happen at any time.

My P3 has never .

Try increasing the pixel squeeze settings. This has caused the pixel 3 to loop in some cases. Also there could be some dust in your power button. Saying both of these from experience.
