Droid turned itself off, now wont turn back on

I was using my phone when it turned itself off. now it wont go back on. had it a while. shouldnt have been hot. took the battery out for a couple mintues and still nothing. plugged it in and the light comes on when its chargeing. the battery wasnt dead but it was chargeing.

What type of Android do you have? What were you doing when it shut down? When you attempt to turn it back on, does it truly do nothing at all, or does it show a screen of some sort that doesn't proceed?
You said that when you try to charge it, a light comes on. Is there an LED indicator on your particular Android that comes on, or is it a charging emblem on the screen that appears?
It would probably be easier for you to bring it in to your local VZW and have them troubleshoot it for you.

TS2634 my iphone 4 lost signal this afternoon & turned itself off & now wont turn back on! help!!

my iPhone 4 lost signal this afternoon, turned itself off & now wont turn back on!! please help????

1. Reset phone - press both home and power buttons for up to 30 seconds until the Apple logo appears/
2. If no response, plug into AC adaptor and charge for at least 30 minutes.
3. Repeat Reset if no response to charging.
4. If still no signs of live, there is a hardware failure. Take it to Apple or whovever provides iPhone service in your country.

Brand new 5s turned itself off, now wont switch back on?

Using my phone was at about 20% battery, put it in my pocket and went to use 5 mins later and screen is black and wont switch back on. Has been sitting on charge for about 25 minutes and still nothing even when pressing or holding the home button or top switch. It was fresh out the box yesterday so less than 24hrs old! Any ideas?

Keep in mind, the iPhone is really a mini-computer, & like all computers, sometimes(although rare with an iPhone) needs to be re-booted.
For all pratical purposes, that's what a reset is.

my iphone turned itself off and It wont turn back on

Hi that worked for me! I thought it was a battery problem. I knew if I came to the Apple iPhone forum I'd find the answer. Now I've got to find some answers on increasing the battery charge as my phone is dead by 8 PM and I charge it fully every night!

Phone just turned itself off and wont turn back on

Nope you won't lose any data, it just like restarting your PC.

My iPhone turned itself off and wont turn back on

I put my phone down on my desk the battery was at about 60 some odd percent, i come back from getting water and the phone is off, i have plugged it in, held the top and home button at the same time, held the top button only and nothing is turning it back on, any idea whats going on?? or what to do?
thanks

Charge it for 15 minutes with the wall charger, then hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons for at leat 15 seconds or until an Apple logo appears.
If that fails or nothing happens at all the phone is broken. If something happens (like any sort of screen display) but the phone does not restart within 5 minutes see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

Anyone have any idea why there is an "error" when trying to activate iMessage? It randomly turned itself off and wont go back on.

This just happened yesterday

I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

Iphone 4 just turned itself off, won't turn on again - sleep/wake button hasn't worked for a while - tried charging (even though it was 50% charged when it shut down) and that makes no difference....tried usb to computer and directo to wall socket. help?

Any suggestions...other than heading off to the genius bar tomorrow?

Well, the sleep/wake button is also the power button. If you cannot use it to turn on, then you cannot use it to perform a reset by holding it and the home button together until you see the Apple logo.Those are the only two ways to turn the device on. You can try letting the battery go completely dead and then trying to plug it in. After it has charged for 20-30 minutes, the device may come back on. But, without the sleep/wake button, there is no other way to turn the device on or off.

IPad 1: Failed sync then it turned itself off/can't switch back on

I tried to sync my iPad 1 in iTunes but got a message saying it wasn't possible (I've synced on this computer many times before and my iPad was working fine before). Then my iPad turned itself off. I've tried charging etc but can't turn it back on.

Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

HT1689 My iPad turns itself off. It comes back on but it is irritating when reading

My iPad turns itself off -- at odd times. Sometimes it goes hours and then it will turn off three or four times in a row. It is not full of files - of 28g it still has 8 g available. What am I doing wrong?

Try the basic:
(A) Restart iPad
1. Hold down the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears.
2. Drag the slider to turn off iPad.
3. Turn iPad back on, hold down the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears
(B) Reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.
(C) Reset all settings
Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings
(D) Restore iPad
1. Connect your device to your iTune (computer).
2. Select your iPad when it appears in iTunes.
3. Select the Summary tab.
4. Click the Restore button.
Note: Data will be lost

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

Turned itself off, now won't turn on

Went to bed last night with the phone almost fully charged and switched on. Woke up this morning and it was turned off, if i turned it on it displayed 'nokia' and the white loading dots displayed, but then it switched off again. plugged it in and it now switches on, x terminal says battery level is 0, even though it was about 60 something last night. Anything that would happen that would drain the battery that much overnight? It was connected to wifi, but it always is and battery hasn't been an issue yet

Just to provide some more info, the battery level was basically 'stuck', so when it was charging i had to reboot for it to say it was 94%, then i had to reboot to find it fully charged. It now tells me when it's going down. So i tihnk when i charged it last night before going to bed it didn't really charge (maybe). I did take the battery out this morning, along with the memory card, but not for any lengthy period of time, perhaps one minute. Once i got it charging and switched on i hoped that was the end of it, though i am considering reflashing later.
The results with charger removed:
