Nokia 2730c switching itself off on standby

Firstly, I've heard it everywhere - "contact your local help centre". Well I've also heard, everywhere, that the local help centres are filled with a bunch of useless **bleep** who can't do their job. So I'm trying to avoid that by any means!
With that said - my Nokia seems to be switching itself off when I leave it on stand-by.. but never when it's actually in use. Sometimes it'll happen in 5 minutes, other times it can take hours. I just recently purchased this phone and am in desperate need for a solution! Expecting a lot of calls.. you know how it is.
So.. ANYTHING that has the slightest bit of chance at working, I'd love to hear it and try it out! If there's seriously nothing I can do, I'll waste my time taking the phone to the help centre 3 times over so I can get a replacement..
Thanks!

Looks like I heard correctly.. took the phone in to get fixed, and while it was getting fixed they gave me a loan phone to use in the meantime. And what do ya know the loan phone doesnt work. (yup it was a nokia) Get a call a week later saying the phone was fixed, I make they guy assure me - THREE TIMES - that the phone was working and that he tested it. He said all was good. So I pick the phone up, take it home, and find the problem within 5 minutes. he DID NOT test it. it WAS NOT fixed. I doubt it was even looked at!
Just a heads up to anyone who reads this - stay away from nokia.

  • 7380 keeps switching itself off

    My 7380 keeps switching itself off - sometimes when its not being touched, sometimes when the controls are touched. It then won't turn back on. Taking the sim card out and putting it back on sometimes works, and the phone will restart, but not all the time. Does anyone else have similar problems?

    I've had repeated problems with my 7380 doing the same thing. I received my first 7380 on 26th April and it only switched on twice before refusing to switch on at all. Orange replaced this phone and I received my second 7380 on 28th April.
    On 9th June my phone started switching itself off. The problem's getting increasingly worse and now it doesn't stay on for more than 3 or 4 hours at a time. So far I have been able to switch it back on again without too many problems. Orange have promised another replacement which will arrive tomorrow, but I'm extremely disappointed. If the next phone fails then I too will be demanding that Nokia replace it with a different model.

  • C7 - switches itself off

    I've always had a nokia phone since my first one 12 years ago.  I really like my new C7 which I've had for about a week.  The only problem is that every now and again, it switches itself off.  Usually it will switch itself back on but today, when it did it for the second time, it wouldn't come back on.   The battery was fully charged, I pressed the menu button, on/off button, took the battery out etc and eventually after a few minutes it came back on when I switched the on/off button on.
    Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can stop it?
    Thanks.

    if this is a daily issue you should return it to a Nokia care center this has been discussed here on a number of threads

  • IPad mini switches itself off during game

    Hi
    Have recently bought a new iPad mini for my son.
    He thinks its great and really enjoys it.
    However whilst he is playing games such as angry bird etc etc the iPad switches itself off and returns to main menu !!!!
    Is there a fault with the iPad or is there something I need to change in settings ???
    Would greatly appreciate some help please

    hi there,
    I started this original discussion and I have got to say that after upgrading it with the latest software available online, the problem has not occured as many times anymore. However, I still believe that the battery life of the nokia n95 is rubbish and I am seriously considering writing to Nokia to complain as the provider Vodafone is useless.
    In the mean time, I have had another problem occuring which is that the screen freezes itself out of nowhere and you have got to switch the phone on and off to get it to operate again.
    I am very disappointed with this phone bearing in mind that I was one of the first to have this phone and it went on sale for £500.

  • Ive had my iphone 4s since 10th april and on three seperate occassions its switched itself off completely (whilst having battery) it then wont work for around 2 days, this is very annoying and I dont know what to do as its been out for around 12hours now

    I don't know why my phone keeps switching itself off, I've never dropped it, had water damage nor any other damage to it. Ive had it for around 5 months or so now and it just likes to switch itself off for around 30-40 hours then work again as though nothing happened. Although this is great as it will eventually work its  very frustrating not knowing if it will switch on again.. at the minute my phone hasnt worked for about 10-12 hours. I went in to the apple shop and they said they couldnt see me for over a week as they were fully booked, I understand that theyre busy but surely they can't expect me to go without a phone/alarm/email for that time when I am paying for it. Does anyone have any help/advice they can offer? Thanks

    Standard troubleshooting...
    1. Try a Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider.  Slide to power off.  Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
    2. Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider if it comes up. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    3. Remove apps from Recently Used list...
    - From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    - Swipe up on the app preview card
    - Press the home button when done.
    4. If still a problem restore with your backup.
    5. If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
    6. If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

  • ICloud drive keeps switching itself off on my iPad 2

    I have a MBP and an iMac = both on Yosemite and both working with iCloud drive OK.
    But I cannot get this to work on iPad 2 with IOS 8 - with either Pages or Keynote.  It keeps telling me to set up iCloud - which I do as per instructions - but it sends me round in the same circles!
    This is driving me crazy and has wasted hours!  I have signed in and out of iCloud several times and enabled iCloud Drive.  Then also down to Pages app and checked on for 'use iCloud'  Somehow - this switches itself off again after a few seconds!  How does this happen?
    Why does it not stay on????????
    While it is 'on' - Every time I try to use the Pages app I cannot see my iCloud drive documents - and when I try and save it then tells me to set up iCloud!
    This is useless to me if it will not work as advertised!

    I suggest that you do a update or reinstall of the phone software via the Update Service program. www.sonyericsson.com/updateservice
    Hopefully will that solve your problem.
    If you get the option to update I suggest that you select to update and also factory reset the phone.
    If you only get the option to reinstall you already have the latest version, this will automatically result in a master reset too.

    I like to watch tvcatchup or sky go or I player on my iPad while falling asleep, the problem is that the iPad then stays on all night. I would like to find an app that allows me to set a timer for the iPad to switch itself off automatically, like the sleeper function on a TV.
    Does such an app exist? Can anyone help me? Thanks

    You can try the Sleep Timer.

  • My iphone4 switches itself off and wont switch back on until its plugged into the mains

    Hi there, can someone help me please!?
    My iphone4 white had updated ios 4.3.3 and it randomly switches itself off, has anyone else had the same problem?
    It just goes to black screen and I cant manually switch it back on, only when I connect it to the mains does it come back on.
    What's also really strange is that once its reset from the mains it resets the date to 01/01/1970 and the time to 01:05?
    Hopefully someone out there can help!? Mark

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain directly connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB, not a cradle):
    With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
    Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    Remove the battery
    Wait 15 minutes
    Insert the battery
    Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
    It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
    Obtain an known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
    Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
    The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem. Note carefully please that "new" and "know good" are not necessarily the same things. While rare, a "new" battery certainly could be defective. Rather, the simplest (and least costly, btw) method to conduct this test is to find someone with an identical BB who has no issues...trade batteries and see what happens.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • My iPad switches itself off when I'm on the Internet help

    When I'm using my iPad on the net it switches itself off and I'm having to turn it back on again and out in my password I only want to use it properly

    Hi Lisah,
    It sounds like you may have some corrupted files in the operating system -- when built-in apps and features like Camera and Siri malfunction, corrupted files are often the culprit.  There are a few things you can do to fix this -- first thing I'd recommend would be to back up your device to make sure you have all of your current data and settings saved.  Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support
    After backing up your data, try resetting all settings in Settings > General > Reset.  Try the camera and charger again to see if you still see the same strange behavior.  If so, there's likely a corrupted file in the iOS installation.  It's pretty easy to reinstall the operating system files to fix this -- you will need a computer with internet access.  Follow the steps in Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support to completely reinstall the iOS files and get a fresh, clean installation.
    After using iTunes to restore the phone, go through the setup assistant on the phone and choose the option to Set up as a new iPhone.  Set it up as new and test the camera again -- if it works this time, that's a good sign!  After making sure it works properly, you can restore from the backup that created before doing all of the resets and restores.  This will bring your content and settings back to the phone.
    Good luck!

  • Recently, when I upgraded to iOS8.2, my iPhone 5c has been switching itself off randomly even when the iPhone says it still has plenty of battery left. Has anyone else had this after upgrading?

    HI.
    a Couple of weeks ago I upgraded to iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5c. However, recently it has been switching itself off at around 20-40% for no apparent reason and then goes to the plug iPhone in screen.
    please can someone help and let me know if they have had the same problem and how they resolved it
    thanks in advance

    This happens to me too. Went to the apple store and they check the battery life of my iphone. They took the iphone for 2 days and changed my battery for free. I hope this help you!

  • 6500 slide keeps switching itself off

    Just got my shiny new 6500 slide which keeps switching itself off. The only way of switching it back on when this happens it to take the battery out, put it back in and then press the power button. It happens about once or twice a day and it seems to be when the phone is charging.
    Anyone else experiencing this? Is there a way of resetting the phone to prevent this happening?
    I'd really like to fix it without the hassle of going back to the shop and trying to demonstrate a very unpredictable fault.

    I would definately take your phone back and get it replaced. I had problems with my 6500 slide, every time i turned it on & off i would have to resest the time & date. I purchased my phone from an internet retailer and they exchanged it for a new one, so far i have had no problems...

  • My i phone 4 keeps switching itself off

    Does anyone have an issue where the I-phone 4 just switches itself off, and the only way to get it running again is to connect to the charger and switch it on , it then comes up with a message to say the battery level is it 30% ?

    I have the same issue! In fact I posted this exact question!!
    Hugh Grest wrote previously:
    Hi,
    My iPhone 4s 16GB is giving me a lot of issues with its battery as of late. Once the battery level reaches below about 30% the phone randomly turns itself off -- even if the battery level didn't reach zero. When I try to turn it back on, it just shows the out of charge symbol on the screen. When I plug it in however it turns itself back on immediately and shows the battery level it turned itself off on. I can then unplug it and continue to use it until the battery level drops to zero or the issue happens again.
    Both my mom and my sister have the same model iPhone as me and do not have this issue. What should I do? (It has already been restored).
    Additional info:
    - My Phone is about 23months old
    - Running iOS 6.1.3
    - This issue has been happening for about 3 months or more
    EDIT: Just upgraded to iOS 7... didn't help. Infact it made it worse! The phone battery now drains quicker which means the issue happens sooner!
    This is so annoying!

  • My G5 keeps switching itself off

    I switch it on and then after about 3-5 mins it switches itself off.
    What gives?
    Andy

    Look at Applications>Console and check your System log to see if there are any notations about shutting down after exceeding maximum temperatures. You might also like to run Apple Hardware Test to see if there are any problems with your power supply unit. If you have the first G5 model, the Rev A, you can check the LEDs http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300908.
