Hey everyone,

I've been tearing out my hair for the past 34 hours (with the exception of sleeping). I restarted my phone yesterday and it got stuck in the boot animation, for hours.

I have never unlocked my bootloader, or flashed any custom rom on this phone, so I was really shocked when this happened. So I took to these forums, because lurking here usually solves all my issues (thanks awesome people), and flashed the stock image as recommended-> bootloop -> factory reset in recovery mode -> bootloop-> repeated this all night and today with multiple flashing methods, no dice.

I was wondering if I was out of luck, seeing as though my phone just randomly did this to itself, without prior tampering, or if there was something I could try doing. I haven't tried any custom recoveries as I don't really know how that would help me if I am willing to flash back to stock and lose all my data.

I am able to boot into fastboot mode and go to recovery mode, so this indicates to me that my hardware is fine, unless I am wrong

Thanks
