Chosen Solution
I have tried several times to hold down the power key, along with the volume keys. A little screen appears where I have a few options. I have chosen each of them, but the phone still continues to turn on and off. I barely got this phone, brand new, a few months ago from Simple Mobile. Any help would be very much appreciated.
There are methods that can be used in order to fix your phone that is power-cycling:
- Check your protective case Some protective cases are a little too snug and can actually put pressure on the power key causing the phone to power off or on sporadically.
- Make sure the battery is snug Make sure that it’s nice and snug and that the metal leads on the phone and battery are staying connected to each other.
- Check the batteries condition Check the Liquid Damage Indicator (LDI) on the battery and make sure that it is still white.
- Run a battery test
- Check your applications
- Upgraded Software
- Backup and reset Resetting a phone is often a last resort for most situations but a factory data reset on an Android phone can often times fix most phone related issues, especially when it comes to software. Hope this info helps.
