Google Logo Boot Loop on the Nexus 5 (Don't Buy It Or A 5x)
This error that I'm calling the "Google Logo Boot Loop" is a hardware problem that can be caused by one of three reasons, based on my research of this issue.
1. defective/damaged Circuit Board
2. defective/damaged Battery
3. faulty Power Button failure
I am not sure what caused this it happen on either of my phones but having it happen on two different devices at the same time has convinced me that I will never purchase another smartphone that is designed as a unibody.
Unibody phones means that the device can not be taken a part for any reason so batteries can't be replaced, external SD cards aren't an option, and hardware failures like this are impossible to fix.
If the issue with this device was just a battery, I'd be able to replace the battery without much effort if it wasn't a unibody but because it is, I'm forced to replace the phone.
This phone is the last unibody smartphone I will ever purchase.
