My Xbox One is stuck in a restarting loop.

gavin tdogg · Aug 1, 2023

I just moved back to college to start the new year and plugged in my Xbox One. When I powered it on, it stayed on the home screen for about 10 seconds when it shut off and restarted itself. The green restart screen came on and after a while it was ready and back on the home screen. 10 seconds later it did the same thing and it will not stop. Nothing seems to be wrong with the power cord or Xbox itself so I do not know what is going on. Please help.

Hi, Gavin. My name is Ron, I'm an independent advisor. I will be more than happy to help you.

Please do the steps below in sequence to do a factory reset and let me know if it works:

- Unplug the network cable if you're using a wired network connection.

- Power off your console, and then unplug the power cord to ensure that the console is completely powered off.

- Wait 30 seconds.

- Plug the power cord back in.

- Press and hold the BIND button (the one you use to sync controllers) and the EJECT button, and then press the Xbox button on the console.

- Continue holding the BIND and EJECT buttons for 10-15 seconds.

- Listen for two “power-up” tones a couple of seconds apart.

Note: If you don't hear two power-up tones after 15 seconds, it means this failed. Likewise, if you hear any “power-down” chirps, that also means this failed.

- You can release the BIND and EJECT buttons after the second power-up tone.

- The console should start and show the Troubleshooting screen

- Choose "reset this Xbox" and there you have an option to Keep Games and Apps (already downloaded) or to Remove Everything

it starts up at the applying update screen and my xbox restarts back to the applying update screen. Its basically stuck in a loop

Maybe this isn't due to the September update. Turned on console this morning, it wants to do a 259mb update, however due to my issue, the system can't restart after and its stuck in a loop.

It might very well be a storage issue. Try removing the external storage devices (I presume they're USB) and try accepting the update.

You may very well need to get an Xbox storage device (250 or 320 gb). Other than that it may be an issue that gets resolved through warranty repair.

It is an S. We just bought it in December. There is no error message, and we're wireless. I'm thinking it may be a hard drive issue. My system memory is showing a 3GB capacity, with only 2MB available, yet when I go into it, it's shows nothing saved there.
My external drive has 13.7GB open. I was thinking about trying an Xbox add-on drive to see if that would help? I have a warranty; maybe I'll just get another one.
