Phone shutting off when not using and does not start back up by itself

I bought the LG Revolution phone 2 1/2 weeks ago and since then twice when I have not been using it, it shuts off by itself and does not power back up until I realize it is off and then I hold down the power key to restart it. It also turns off in the middle of using an app but then restarts itself. Is this a known glitch or is something wrong with this particular phone? Since I am after the 2 week mark, can I exchange it? Or am I out $200 for an issue that isn't my fault?

tiggerpolo81, I know your phone shutting off and on is very frustrating. I will attempt to assist you with some suggestions to resolve this issue. I researched this issue and found that some customers have reported this as an issue and we have also reported it to our device team. We will attempt to address the issue with any future updates for this phone. In the mean time, I recommend checking to see if a third party app is causing the issue. 
Safe Mode temporarily disables all applications that have been installed via the Android Market. Performing this step is necessary to determine whether a 3rd party application is the cause of an Operating System / Application issue. 
Enable Safe Mode
With the device powered down, press and hold the power button (upper-right corner).
When the LG Logo screen appears, press and hold the volume down key.
Release the volume down key when Safe mode is displayed at the lower-left.
This may take up to 30 seconds.
Disable Safe Mode
Press and hold the Power button (upper-right corner).
Select Restart.
Additionally , if the issue continues we can review your account and device for warranty replacement options. If the phone is within its one-year manufacturers warranty and have no physical or water damage, it can be replaced with the same model.

    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 LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 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.

  • IPhone shuts off when I use the internet on the 3G network & I can't upgrade/restore because of network connection error. Any Help?

    A few months ago, while on the 3G network, my iPhone 3GS starting turning off randomly when I was using safari or an online app and the battery was somewhere around 5-20%. When this happened the only way to get the phone back on was by fully charging it which sometimes took a few hours even. It wasn't a big deal at the time because it was infrequent and while the phone was at a low battery %. However, in the past few months, around the time I upgraded to iOS 5.1 it started happened more and more often and at higher and higher battery percentages. It is now at a point where my phone shuts off every time I connect to the 3G network regardless of what my battery life is. I have called Rogers several times to complain about this and I have been told it is because of the battery for the most part but I don’t buy it; the problem has got to be more significant than the battery alone because I can listen to music and send texts at anytime and fully use the internet when I am connected to Wi-Fi. I more recently talked to someone in tech support from Rogers who said my phone cannot support the iOS 5.1 software and that is why it is crashing. They also asked if my phone was heating up more now than in the past and it is. They said this was further evidence that my phone was couldn't handle the new software and was basically on overload.  I was told to the best solution was to "Back Up" my iPhone then do a full "Restore". Here is where my next problem comes along. I cannot "Restore" my iPhone without doing an upgrade and every time I attempt to "Upgrade & Restore" an error message pops up that says "There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone "...". The network connection timed out/was reset. -Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later". I have followed all of the protocol that is readily available online to address this problem but still no success. I disabled my firewall and anti-virus programs, I have ensured my connection is active and stable, I have upgraded to the newest iTunes, I have uninstalled iTunes and all apple programs in the correct order then reinstalled iTunes, I have disabled my DNS cache. Nothing works.
    If you have any advise whatsoever please share as it would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    I was actually able to upgrade to the newest software, iOS 5.1.1 without connecting to my computer/iTunes but rather directly through my phone when I was home on Wi-Fi. After the upgrade I plugged my phone into a different USB port at the back of my computer and was able to do a full restore. I really don't think the USB port had anything to do with it because I use the same front USB port all the time with my external hard drive and other devices wuth no problems at all; regardless of what the actual solution was, I am now able to connect to iTunes and upgrade/restore without any problems so that half of my problem is resolved.
    I have yet to leave my house since doing the upgrade/restore so I am not sure if the problem with my phone crashing when I use the interent on the 3G is still an issue. I will test it today and tomorrow and give you an update.
    Thanks

    I was actually able to upgrade to the newest software, iOS 5.1.1 without connecting to my computer/iTunes but rather directly through my phone when I was home on Wi-Fi. After the upgrade I plugged my phone into a different USB port at the back of my computer and was able to do a full restore. I really don't think the USB port had anything to do with it because I use the same front USB port all the time with my external hard drive and other devices wuth no problems at all; regardless of what the actual solution was, I am now able to connect to iTunes and upgrade/restore without any problems so that half of my problem is resolved.
    I have yet to leave my house since doing the upgrade/restore so I am not sure if the problem with my phone crashing when I use the interent on the 3G is still an issue. I will test it today and tomorrow and give you an update.
    Thanks

  • Phone shut off when I plugged in charger

    I was listennig to music and reading a book on my phone and happened to plug in a charger. Now I understand that it is unwise to that but its a fairly new charger. Only a couple of months old and when I plugged in the charger my phone shut completely off and I've taken out the batter and sim card and micro and left it alone for about a minute or so and plugged everything in and the original charger to the phone and now it wont turn on and it's been about 20 minutes.

        Chany0690, it sounds like you've done quite a bit to get your phone to work again and I want to help as well! When you said you plugged in a charger, was this the charger that came with the phone? If not, where did you get this charger? Was there a shock or anything when you plugged in the phone? Sometimes removing the battery a second time and holding the power button for about 10 seconds will work as well.
    Another thing to try is to take battery out, plug phone to USB port on a computer (without battery), computer should beep once phone is recognized, now insert battery and try to power phone on.
    Let me know if you need further assistance after this.

  • MBP shuts off when not plugged in (yet battery is fully charged)

    This is the 3rd time I've suffered from this problem.
    The problem lasts for about two days then seems to go away for a week or so.
    When I leave the MBP charging for a few hours, then disconnect the power, it almost immediately shuts off (no warning, no error, no sleeping).
    While disconnected, if I try and turn it on, I hear the boot sound, but then it shuts off again - the monitor never turns on.
    If I connect it back to the power it turns on and boots fine.
    My parents also have a brand new MBP, and I can avoid the problem by swapping batteries.
    I therefore think my battery is faulty.
    What else can I do to test the battery functions?
    Thanks,
    -Vijay

    This started happening to me a few wks ago. My MB Pro would just go blank and shut down for no reason, while using it unhooked from the power cord. I could restart it, but it would shut down within a few minutes. The battery showed 60 to 70 %. Looking up on this discussion, I found numerous others who have had this problem. I called Apple support, but could not get to a person, they work only 6AM to 6PM in the US. So, today, I took it in to the Genius Bar, here in San Jose, CA. His first reaction was, Oh, you do not have Applecare. I told him about the battery problem reports on this discussion. He feigned ignorance of the problem. Next minute, he turned to me and said he will replace the battery free of charge! My MB Pro is 17 months old, and I do not have Applecare. So, all you people with this 'sudden death syndrome' please go into the store, or call Apple and claim what is due.

  • My Imac shuts off when watching videos, and also when trying to edit videos.  The fan(s) turn on, then a short time later it just shuts off.

    I have the latest OS update from Apple that I had to buy - 10.8.2. 
    The fans come on, then the machine shuts down.  I have 4GB RAM, it can go up to 8GB.  I was editing GoPro videos when it started, now it seems to happen all the time, even when watching a Youtube video in a small window.  It doesn't happen when just using e-mail or visiting forums.
    This was happening before the upgrade as well; I got the upgrade so I could iCloud with my wife's iPad.
    Do I need a new fan?  More RAM?
    There is a install sheet for the RAM, but how do I check if the fan(s) are OK?  I hear it/them blowing even as I type this.
    TIA!

  • G460 Suddenly Shut OFF when forwarding video or doing some tasks

    Hy, I have problem with my Lenovo G460.
    When I played video, any kind of video, it's just running normal.
    But, when I forward it just a little bit, it shut off without warning or anything.
    I've tried to open the bottom cover and try running it.
    The VGA fan seems OK to me, it run like usual.
    I Don't know what happen.
    My only clue is that, the charger has 4 kind of sound.
    1. When plug in to the electricity,
    2. When plug in to the electricity and plugged into the Laptop,
    3, When plug in to the electricity and plugged into the Laptop when the laptop is ON,
    4. The sound that coming after it suddenly shut OFF.
    Is it the charger, or the laptop charge core???

  • Intel iMac shutting off suddenly, not coming back for hours

    Hello,
    Last night my iMac suddenly shut off; I tried for about twenty minutes to turn it back on (I tried the power button, unplugging and replugging, changing outlets...), then gave up. This morning I tried it and it worked just fine, but after several hours it shut off again. That was about three hours ago and it hasn't come back yet. Curiously it shut off right before iSight was going to snap a picture in Photo Booth, and I just can't remember if that's when it happened last night too...
    Any help?

    Sounds like an overheating problem. You could try to reset the SMC and see if that helps, if not it probably needs to go to the shop.

    JCLouis, 
    We saw your story and are very worried about what we read! This isn't like us at all and we are here to help sort it all out. We recommend calling the Rebate Center to check on the status. Their number is 1-800-457-0864.
    We can help you right here with your phone! How often does it turn off? Is it just that the screen goes black or does it completely power down? Also, does it start back up by itself if it does power down?
