How to Fix Bootloop — Lenovo S560
The Lenovo S560 is a 2012 Android 4.0 smartphone powered by the Mediatek MT6577 (40 nm) with 512MB and 4GB internal storage. It features a 4.0", IPS LCD, 480.0x800.0 display and is available in Deep Blue.
The S560 is equipped with a Li-Ion 2000 mAh, removable, a 5 MP, 480p main camera. The device uses a Dual SIM (Mini-SIM, dual stand-by) configuration. It weighs 155 g.
A bootloop on the Lenovo S560 occurs when the device repeatedly restarts without fully loading Android. This is commonly caused by a failed software update, corrupted system files, or an incompatible app. Most bootloops can be resolved without losing data by clearing the cache partition first before attempting a factory reset.
Factory reset may be needed as a last resort — erases all data.
On your Lenovo S560: force restart: hold Power for 15–30 seconds
If still looping: enter Recovery Mode
Navigate to 'Wipe cache partition' → confirm → reboot
If still looping: return to Recovery
Select 'Wipe data/factory reset' → confirm (erases all data)
Last resort: use your manufacturer's PC tool to reinstall firmware
