Is your battery very run down? Try charging it for hours (or overnight).

Battery % dropping, phone turning itself off

Basically my phone's battery has been pretty terrible for a while now, I get about 12 hours usage when fully charged and that's without me using it extensively. More recently though i've been having an issue where the battery % is dropping drastically (30% to 1%) and then the phone is turning itself off. I've checked the usage screen for any apps that would be draining it etc and all is pretty normal. I've tried to restore the phone, this hasn't changed anything. My phone is out of warranty and isn't on the battery replacement program. Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks
Steve

The phone turns itself off every night

Every night my iPhone 4 turns itself off so that nobody can call me, and I do not receive any messages. If someome calls me, they are told that I can not be reached. To "open" the phone again, I have to make a call. Then it works all right the rest of the day. But the next morning it is "closed" again. It is a new phone. I complained and I got a new one, but it has the same problem.

Try to set it up as new device, without using the latest backup, in case it contains corrupt data causing your problem. How to back up your data and set up as a new device

Phone Turns Itself Off During Call

I've had the 8300 Curve for about a year and a half now. Starting recently, the phone just turns itself off in the middle of a call and the only way I can turn it back on is by pulling the battery. As far as I know, it only turns itself off when I'm on a call. I searched the forums and updated to the newest OS, 4.5.0.110, but that hasn't solved the problem. Is this a battery issue or is my phone just on its way out? Battery is holding its charge normally. I do use a Bluetooth headset sometimes, but I haven't found that to be a factor. Any help is much appreciated.

I just had someone come to me with this problem on an 8330. I was not able to duplicate it. I checked battery connections and event logs following is the event log for the period that the customer had problems with the phone shutting down. if anyone can see anything in the log that looks out of the ordinary, I, my customer and many others will be grateful. Thanks.

My iPhone 3GS just turns itself off for no reason

My iPhone turns itself off randomly for no reason. It only turns back on once I start charging it again. It will turn itself off sometimes if the battery is quite full or quite low so there isn't a set pattern as to when it happens. Its quite annoying if im not at home as I cant get in touch with anyone then.
I think I need a new battery but does anyone know any different? Has anyone else had the same problem at all?
Cheers!

Try resetting it by holding the home and power keys down until the Apple logo appears.

About 4 hours ago, I hung up after speaking to a family member and the screen went black. Apparently, it had turned itself off! Now it will not turn back on and my comp. doesn't recognize it! Help please!

Also, I tried holding down the "home" and "off" at the same time and it won't turn on. please help!

Phone turns itself off, will not turn back on

I got the Sony Xperia M4 Aqua only three days ago from Virgin Mobile in BC, Canada. Model number E2306. -Since then it has shut itself off for no reason 8 times.(eg- in the middle of charging, during the night, multiple times in one morning). -Always when I lock the screen, and when I go to unlock it again with the power button, nothing happens. -Sometimes it happens if I leave the phone locked for 5 minutes, or 3 hours. -The ony way I can get the phone to turn back on is through holding the OFF (reset) button next to the sim card slot. -I have tried registering for Xperia Support through the app on the phone and it says my IMEI number is invalid? -The phone runs fine and no app crashes while it is turned on. How do I fix this, or should I return the phone?!

Try performing a system repair using PC Companion as this will often fix issues - This will factory reset your phone and erase all data so best to backup before you begin
Switch off your phone and unplug from Pc (Hold volume up and power for around 10 seconds)
Start PC Companion and select Support zone then Update my phone/tablet then in Blue Repair my phone/tablet and follow the on screen instructions - When prompted connect your phone still switched off holding volume down or back button - This should start the repair or reformat process
If you are using Windows 8/8.1 or a 64bit operating system then adjust the settings for PC Companion and run in compatibility mode and chose Windows 7 or XP

Phone turns itself off

Unfortunately I have already had to have one replacement within 2 days of getting it because of various issues including turning itself (after about 30minutes-1hour of being within a call), the new one also does this, usually after about 30minutes of playing music (begining to see a theme here), could it be because I am using an 8gb micro sd card? or is it something else?

Yeah, I have exactly the same problem with my 8120.....
Its completly unreliable, I am on my third now and all have the exact same problem. I can be either in the middle of a call and the phone just dies, or it can be sitting on the desk busy flashing its green light and then for no reason, will just die.
Its my 1st Blackberry and my experience sofar, will be my last.
Not impressed at all.

Phone turns itself off when calling

Hello,
When someone tries to call me or when I call out, about 50% of the time the phone will say "Mobile Network Not Available" and then it shuts itself off.
Any help?
Thank you.
This is my second Xperia phone...I bought one 2 weeks ago and it seemed to have overheated and then they gave me this one...they both had the same problem with calling...

The on off button no longer works on my iPhone 4s. If I update my iOS will my phone turn itself off as part of the process? If it does I won't be able to turn it back on so I need to know but can't remember from last time!!!

Will my iPhone 4s turn off as part of the process of updating my iOS? The on/off button on my iphone doesn't work so I can't allow my phone to run out of battery or turn off because I will not be able to turn it back on.

Ok here is a nuance
Try it - when your phone locks
Insert the charging cord which is connected to a power source on the other end - wait about a minute - and then take it out
The screen will "wake up"
That is always your way out
I use assistive touch as well to lessen the wear and tear on my home button
Sleep mode is what your phone does when you are asleep

HT4528 Hello. I recently upgraded my iPhone 4 to ios7. Since the upgrade, my phone turns itself off at the same time every night, for about 30 minutes. I have no idea why. Any suggestions?

I recently upgrade to iOS 7, and since then, my iPhone turns off automatically at the same time every night for about 30. Why does this happen, and what setting can I change to prevent it?

Is Do Not Disturb turned on? Do you see a quarter-moon icon up top in the status bar?

My Iphone 3gs has turned itself off and will now not come back on! I have connected it to the laptop and tried rebooting it but nothing is happening! Any suggestions please???

Help!!

My I Phone 3GS did exactly the same. Tried holding the buttons, syncing it to my laptop, plugging it in to the mains (it didn't even beep).
I rang my service provider (Orange) but they couldnt fix it. They passed me onto Apple. Who went through everything. But no joy.
Apple sent me a box to return my mobile to them. Now I have no mobile and have to wait to hear from Apple..
I'm gutted cause no mobile now :-((
