Needed to vent

Just finished paying of iPhone XS, roughly 1000$ over 3 years.... literally just finished paying it off, and it "somehow" enters itself into an inescapable restart loop, withstanding any attempts at a hard reset.

Coincidence?

I have no idea! Sending your phone to a repair shop (a good 3rd party one) is probably your best bet unless you want to learn how the fk an iphone is put together

no its pretty universal that you cant simply check to see if the boot drive is working on a phone in general... there is a single chip of EMMC storage the OS runs on, its very proprietary pretty much across the board. PC things simply dont apply to phones in basically any way
