My phone wont even hard reset

My phone stopped charging randomly and apparently it doesn't have enough battery power to even turn on....i know it's not broken because it keeps turning on every once in a while but quickly turns off for lack of battery power. Even the hard boots and all that shuts off almost instantaneously. Please help me

Can you plug it into a wall charger for four hours or so with the phone turned off? After that time see if it will reboot with enough battery life to boot up properly.

  • Palm TX - Won't even hard reset

    My Palm T/X will soft reset, but not hard reset.  It keeps going to the password screen. When I try to enter the password, it jumps to the Owners screen and that's it - it's stuck. 
    Needless to say, it won't Hotsync either.
    Any ideas on how to at least get it to hard reset? 
    Thanks for any info.

    Connie, I know you've tried, but just for the heck of it, let's review how to Hard Reset:
    To perform a Hard Reset:
    While pressing and holding the Power button down, tap and release the Reset button in back and continue to hold the Power button down. When the grey Palm logo appears, you can release the Power button.
    You should now see the warning page in about 5 languages. Press the UP direction on the 5-way pad to complete the task. Your Palm will reset itself several times as it re-installs the original programs and erases all your previous data.

  • IPhone 5s with ios 8.2 - can't use touch function; must double tap each function key; can't shut down phone without a hard reset; every function results in a voice description even in silent mode.

    I have a iPhone 5s and just installed the 8.0.2 ios. How do I stop getting audible descriptions of each action I take in silent mode? The Touch ID has ceased to function. The screen icons have to be double struck. I cannot scroll down past the first page of any screen. I must force a shut-down to turn the phone off.  How do I fix all these problems?

    Hello Gubus 2,
    It sounds as though (no pun intended) VoiceOver is enabled on your iPhone. Pressing the Home button quickly three times should turn this feature off. Further information can be found in the iPhone user guide at the link below.

    Hey xxikearnsxx,
    When troubleshooting power issues, the following article provides the most relevant information:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    - Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    - Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion.
    Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
    - Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    - After at least 15 minutes, if:
                   - The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
                   - The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
                   - Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    - If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
                   - If the display turns on, go to step 4.
                   - If the display remains black, go to next step.
    - Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to
    restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    - If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Thanks,

  • HT201412 ok i did the new update and now my phone wont even start up! the apple logo comes up then the screen will flash and the phone will shut off. any ideas?

    as listed in the title, my phone just flashes on me no start up just flashes from the apple logo to shutting off and back and forth i did the update this afternoon (9-26-2012) and it still wont start up!!!

    Something in your backup may be corrupt. Try wiping it and setting it up as a new device, then sync your apps, data and media back to it from iTunes. DO NOT resotre from your backup. If the problem is contained in the backup, it will bring it right back again if you restore.

  • Help!! I downloaded the update last night, and now my phone wont even turn on!

    I downloaded the update last night for my Pearl Flip, and it did the usual (turn on/turn off) during the update.
    When it was finished it turned off-figured it had to reboot to take effect-now it has a new hour glass on the main screen when you open it up, and wont get past the 'app world error' reset page.
    It thinks/thinks/thinks and takes me about 20-30min to get the error. I've done the reset it asks me to (mainly b/c thats the only option).
    So I think it's reseting, then I get the same darn thing. HELP

    Yikes...a 200 error...while the official KB for that is not presently available, the usual fix is to reload your OS...something during the update did not go right.

    Hopefully, you already have a good backup of your data...because it is already gone.

  • N97 / N85 - Hard reset - Firmware update Limit ???

    Hi
    Was wondering if there Is a max Limit to the numbet of times the Firmware can be updated
    or the Phone can be Hard reset
    before damageing the MEM Cards built into the N97 / N85

    Nowhere its mentioned about the limit for reinstalling firmware updates and doing resets so with that i can say it can be done "many" times, basically its done when you encounter any problem doesn't gets resolved with other resets available, at last we resort to reinstalling firmware or Hard reset. I haven't come across any implications nor heard from anyone doing it often.
    FYI N97 has a 32Gb hard drive built-in with an MicroSD slot for expansion.
    If a reply has solved your problem click Accept as solution button, doing it will help others know the solution. Thanks.

  • Hard Reset Xperia and Format MicroSD Card

    When I installed the NotesTraveller to access company's email and calendar - the security settings is updated so the phone will be (hard) reseted automatically when someone entere wrong PIN 5 times consecutively. Put the in the trousure's pocket is my bad habbit which caused the phone resetted for at least 5 times during last 12 months (wrong pins could be accidentaly entered by body contacts).Since I regularly backup the system, apps and its data to its external MicroSD; I could restore to the last backup state. However this time, when I take the phone out of my pocket; the phone was not only resetting but the data in MicroSD is also being formatted. My question:1. Is it possible that the MicroSD is being formated automatically by hard reset?2. I am trying to recover the latest backup file from MicroSD that formated by the phone. What file extention that I should look for? Is it .bak file? 

    Thanks for your reply, Uliwooly.Indeed, the app performed factory reset when the wrong PIN entered 5x.I am just corious if this app formats the external MicroSD as well - In the past it erased everything in internal storage only.

  • Palm Tungsten E2, Unable to Hard reset

    I have pushed the power switch and then the reset button on the back. The manual states that the logo should appear and then push the up position on the 5 way tab on the front when it asks if you want to erase  the data.
    This does not happen on my palm. The logo appears then it moves to a screen asking fo my password. which is my initial problem as my palm will not recognize my password. I am just trying to get into the palm so I can      re-sync from my computer back to the Palm.  Help is needed.

    Sounds like something is scrambled on your phone. A Hard Reset seems to be in your near future...  This will erase your phone, and all the data on it, and then will install all the programs that came on it when brand new.

  • My iPhone 5 is charging but wont turn on even with the hard reset and restore. Keeps showing low battery. HELP PLEASE

    My iPhone 5 shows it's charging but wont turn on even with the hard reset and restore. Just keeps showing low battery. HELP PLEASE
    I usually sleep with my phone on charge through the night and I haven't had any problem since, I left my iphone 5 charging last night and in the morning it stated 100% charged so I decided to turn the power off normally (Hold the hold button till it says slide to turn power off) I turned it off and suddenly my iphone went straight to low battery. Although I have been having weird battery percentage changes for example it would stay on 1 % for an hour or so or drain really quickly.
    I have restored it as i thought was the thing to do all it's doing it restoring and still stating low battery and I have charged it for hours +. I can't hard reset it nor restore it NEED HELP PLEASE.

    My iPhone 4 died. I tried charging it for 3 hours; it wont hard reset or even show up on my computer or itunes. is there anything i can do?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    You can also try going to Settings>General>Reset>Ease all content and Settings. However, you may not be able to restore via iTunes. You might only be able to only restore from iCloud backup if you have a hardware problem,

    Try to backup and restore you device in itunes...restoring the device is like removing the iOS software off the device and re-add in a newer software, after you have restore you device, MAKE SURE YOU SET UP YOUR DEVICE LIKE A NEW DEVICE, DONT NOT RESTORE FROM BACKUP!!... give the device a chance to use the newer software and see if the issue still persisting, if the issue still on going then its would be a hardware issue.
    Call Apple Care and see if your device is still under warranty to get it replace
