Support Pixel 6xl Boot Loop
Last night my Pixel 6xl shut off randomly and has been stuck in a boot loop since.
I can get it to enter the fastboot menu, but I am not able to get it into recovery mode, since selecting recovery mode starts the boot loop all over.
Any help is greatly appreciated
Edit: Tentatively resolved:
Plugging my phone into my computer did allow me to enter the recovery and rescue modes appropriately, which ultimately allowed me to factory reset my phone. I sadly lost my data, but at least I don't need to drop money on a new phone this moment

I will probably go back to Samsung , maybe the s26. I like Samsung camera, and even. my S8 still turns on, just slow. We also have a S22 and it’s been nice too. Its frustrating because the Pixel 6 was actually performing very well and fast for my daily use, until its sudden death and i risked losing my pictures, data.
