power off

Ok, perhaps this is too generic but is there a rule of thumb on how long to wait before rebooting or pulling the battery? Related to: Updates, upgrades, new ROM's etc. Some things seem to go on forever...with no onscreen indication of progress. Sometimes reboot works to jump start but on...

Hello guys, been a while, but I got myself into trouble. For a while I had rooted the phone but one time I rebooted and it supposedly no longer had root. Today I got a notification that magisk updated, so I decided to try it. I booted into recovery and tried to flash. Nothing happened. I tried...

Phone turns off during use and will not complete boot unless plugged to charger even when the battery is almost full. This error started last night after I did factory reset because of observed phone lag. I did mistakenly "wiped internal storage" but got the alert of "no OS during reboot", so I...

Hi guys, Something strange is happening to my zenfone. When I want to switch it off, and I click the "power off" option my phone activates offline mode, then the screen just dimms instead of going full black. When I try to switch it on again, everything is okay except that my phone doesn't...

So I left my 6p on the roof of my car, drove for about 2 miles and it flew off the car and was run over a few times. Aside from the screen being completely destroyed, it technically still "works" in that I was able to locate it via GPS with android device manager, haptic and ringing still work...

Hi guys, the nexus i bought from play store probably had a faulty button (the shutdown button), which makes it reboot randomly and start bootlooping. I contacted Google and received a working one, but since i've been using the old Nexus 5 for some months i have all the data in the old nexus...

Hello, I just got a nexus 7 2013 that had a busted screen. It still showed data between the huge shatter, and didn't respond to my attempts to unlock it by swiping. I assumed it was just a bad screen and bought a replacement and installed it today. The display worked, but the touchscreen...

I used to run Cyanogenmod on my S3 (I9300), but yesterday the phone suddenly powered off and refused to go past the Galaxy SIII splash-screen after powering it on, so I decided to wipe the device via recovery but that didn't help at all. After many failed wipes, formats and flashing of different...

Some Android devices (eg, my Moto G) have a "feature" that will wipe the device after 10 incorrect unlock attempts. There's pros and cons to this feature, and I know that not everyone considers it a feature. I'm not interested in debating about those angles here. What I am curious about is if...

Right after the encryption finished, it asked me for the encryption password. The problem is, when I type it in, the phone just shows the encryption symbol and turns off!!!!!! (is it unrecoverable?) :crying: EDIT: It is not the wrong password, since it doesn't say "Try Again"
