How to Fix Bootloop — Plum Phantom 2

⏱ ~5 min📋 6 steps

The Plum Phantom 2 is a 2018 Android 8.0 Oreo smartphone powered by the Mediatek MT6580A (28 nm) with 1GB and 8GB internal storage. It features a 5.7", IPS LCD, 480.0x960.0 display and is available in Black, Gold.

The Phantom 2 is equipped with a Li-Ion 2700 mAh, removable, a 8 MP, 1080p@30fps main camera, a 5 MP, 720p@30fps front camera. The device uses a Nano-SIM + Micro-SIM configuration. It weighs 195 g.

A bootloop on the Plum Phantom 2 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.

1

On your Plum Phantom 2: force restart: hold Power for 15–30 seconds

2

If still looping: enter Recovery Mode

3

Navigate to 'Wipe cache partition' → confirm → reboot

4

If still looping: return to Recovery

5

Select 'Wipe data/factory reset' → confirm (erases all data)

6

Last resort: use your manufacturer's PC tool to reinstall firmware
