Bootloop
[Facebook Post]

Today, my phone suddenly shut down and started up on a boot loop. I panicked and did all the recovery my intelligence can muster. I thought of all the pictures of Lukas I would never see again. Headed up to the nearest Samsung Service Center to see if they have more sophisticated software to help me keep my phone data despite the need for a wipe. All the waiting to have my fears confirmed - no other way but to lose all of it in a factory reset. 

Di ako pumayag, syempre! Went home and tried all the other ways to recover files. At this point my phone is hot from all its turning on and off. Gave it a rest and prayed a little prayer and sang "Rescue."

After the thousand times the phone has rebooted, it stayed on, and let me in after an unlock! I immediately transferred all Lukas' photos in a hurry - I dont think I blinked. Huhuhuhuhu that little miracle is a win for my mommy heart!

Phone still broken, bluetooth wont turn on, wifi wont turn on, airplane mode goes randomly on and off but I was able to secure my son's photos. ❤ WIN!!!

Lesson: What technology (and my own smarts cant), God can. 🙂

To celebrate, here's a photo I thought I would never see again -
