Hi to every one,
After about a year of trying to fixed the reboot loop on my wife's iPad Pro 10.5 inch 2nd Gen after updating to ios 13. I tried to update it everytime that there is a new ios up to 13.7. I lost hope and bought my wife a new iPad Pro.
I've been updating it using iTunes on iMac and PC but it still rebooting every 3 minutes.
But today (Nov. 23, 2020), i tried a different approach.
I don't know if it will work for you. But you can try it.
The new ios is 14.2. I have 13.7.
Here are the steps:
Turn off Find my iPad
Signout from iCloud & Appstore
remove lock code & finger print
Turn off Display auto lock
Turn On: Automatic Updates - Download iPad Updates & install iPad Updates
make sure battery is charge to 100%.
"UPDATE it thru Wi-Fi"
it will take a longer time because it keeps on rebooting (for me it's every 3 minutes). Leave it, watch a movie or do something.
And it updated to 14.2 without rebooting. It's FIXED.
After the Update:
"Turn off" Automatic Updates - iPad Updates & Install iPadOS Updates (no more updates for my iPad)
I did not use the back up that i created from the previous ios version. I am scared it might restore the bad files which creating the reboot loop.
I am not sure that it will work for you. But I hope it will help you & others.
If not, I'm so sorry.
