I named my DROID X2 "Chucky" - It wont turn OFF !
I tried everything that people have suggested in here.
- Remove some apps - I only had 10 at the time - BIG DEAL!
- Take out the battery.
- Clear all Cache.
- Customer service walked me through a hard (Factory reset). What a PAIN - setting up all accounts all over again, etc...
- Most recently, I put it in Safe Mode, deleted all 5 apps AGAIN, cleared the cache & powered down. I just powered it back up. Now it's sitting here with the Motorola "M" on the screen!!! I'm going to have t remove the battery, I guess???
I hate this phone anymore!
Since the factory reset things are WORSE than ever! The voice recognition wont do anything I ask it to, the GPS gets locked up all the time, now AND it still TURNS ON ALL BY ITSELF - NOT GOOD IN THE MIDDLE OF A MEETING!!!! I had to take the battery out while I was on a flight yesterday! It's like the Movie bad boy doll - "Chucky" It comes to life all by itsself!
ps
Know what else - They sold me this phone as a "SKYPE" phone... I was telling my grandson in front of the salesgirl - "Look we'll be able to see Mommy on her business trip to Louisianna." There is NO forward facing camera on this phone!!! Yea, there is skype on it - but its a PHONE!!!! Why do I need audio skype when I have a phone in my hand??? Verizon really did me wrong!
The automatic-power-back-up after Shutting it Off is *STILL* a bug ... It was introduced with the release of Gingerbread back in June 2011 and Moto has not delivered on their (& Verizon's) "promise" to provide a software update to GB. The best way to get around that problem is just put your device into SLEEP MODE and be done with it. There is NO fix for the problem - at least that I've been successful at finding. Lots of suggestions, just no permanent fix (and yes, I've tried all of what you have heard.)
re: SKYPE - Correct, the DX2 (like the DX) did NOT come with a front facing camera for Skyping. If that was a necessary feature, you probably should have noted that lack of feature before buying it .. It is very well documented (the specs) that it only comes with 1 camera - which is on the rear of the device.

Droid Razr Maxx HD wont turn off when charging....
I have been using Droids since they have come out and very familiar with them. I recently (three days ago) upgraded to the Razr Maxx HD and went to plug it in to charge (i already powered down) and when I plug it in to charge, the phone comes back on. I shut it off, while plugged in, and it power off and then turns right back on again. I have tried all combinations and can't get it to STAY OFF while i'm charging. Suggestions?

Ipod shuffle 2nd gen wont turn off
my ipod shuffle wont turn off! it is 2nd gen i think it is silver with clip on on the back. when i pause it it will pause but when i turn switch to off green light still flashing and will still play if press play button any ideas? or do i buy another one . it is about 9 months old.
thanks for your reply. in the end i took it to an apple service centre and coz it only 8months old got it replaced for free in two days, seeing as im in darwin i was quite impressed!!. i agree it is made cheap but i use it for the gym and no other portable music player is equipped with the clip on the back which is the most simple design feature and no-one is catching on. have seen the new one , which looks brilliant, if my replacement craps itself after its 1 year warranty then i will just get the new one. thanks again for the reply.

what to do my ipod touch 4g is updated to ios6 now it has a white scren and wont turn off and to top it off the homebutton does not work at all please help me
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
-When it says place the iPod in recovery mode use this program instead of the buttons.

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My mac book air turn on with grey apple icon and spining wheel. then it wont turn off.
my mac book air turn on with grey apple icon and spining wheel. then it wont turn off.pls help
Have exactly the same problem with my wife's MacBook Air. After restaring in Restore mode and trying to repair the disk (Disk Utility showed errors in the verification), the system tells me to backup as much data as possible (how?), re-format the disk and restore backed-up files. Error comes up when "updating boot support partitions for the volume as required".
Original restart action was done due to software update requesting it, if I remember correctly, iTunes was updated.
I don't want to start a painful back-up procedure (although I do regular back-ups): how should I know, where iPhoto stores it's data or where my mails are (yes, still using local mail)? How can I access the data if I can't boot?
My iMac's disk crashed also a couple of months ago and I'm still recovering. I have four Apple devices, two of them have failed. Can Apple afford such a ratio? -

TRIED TO DOWNLOAD SOFTWARE ios7.1.2 TO MY IPAD. iPAD FROZE ON THE APPLE PICTURE AND WONT TURN OFF OR RESPOND AT ALL. IPAD MAY NEED MORE FREE MEMORY FOR THE NEW SOFTWARE BUT HOW DO I FREE UP MEMORY IF THE IPAD IS FROZEN. CAN THIS BE DONE ON iTUNES OR THE APPLE SITE?
Took my iPad to the Apple store today and they were able to unfreeze it with a simple forced reset. This is done by pressing the Off button at the same time as you press the button on the front and hold for about 20 seconds. The new software had successfully installed and the iPad had frozen when it was starting up again after install. Not sure why this simple process can't be part of a FAQ page on the Apple site.

Windows XPi've had a similar problem,had my nano since september and its been fine but it wont turn off when you hold down play/pause. no matter how long you hold it down. also, usually when you unplug the headphones it automatically changes pauses then eventually switches off, it doesnt do that either. i had a problem like this with my mark 2 ipod and just hope it doesnt go the same way as that!

Lumia 1020 focus assist light wont turn off
lumia 1020 focus assist light wont turn off. i've done a hard reset and a soft reset. ive also drained the battery but the little round light continues to be turned on .
i checked and it looks like ive still got warranty from nokia. will they still honour the warranty if ive updates the software?I have the same problem, I tested everything, hard reset, soft reset, using recovery tool to back to Cyan version, still the light is ON.. what is tyhe problem, it is ridicolous that Microsoft/ Nokia do not give an answer to this problem as many users have the same problem........

Hi, alekswithkz. Just to verify, when you say hard reset, do you mean: Settings>About>Reset? If yes, you can try to download and use the Nokia Software Recovery Tool before considering sending the phone for repair.
http://www.nokia.com/us-en/support/software-recovery/
Note: The link is from Nokia US. If you are in another country, feel free to download the app from your local Nokia website.
If the issue remains, it's best to have it examined by an authorized Nokia technician. This will also determine if the repair will be covered under warranty. Warranty period starts on the date of purchase. Please bring your receipt for warranty verification.
