What to do if the phone does not turn on? You must admit that for any modern person this is a real disaster. It is important to stop panicking - on emotions you can do much worse and break your favorite gadget completely. It is better to think, find out what is the cause of the breakdown, and continue to act on the basis of this information.
Step 1. Check the battery level
Even if, according to your calculations, a few hours ago, the charge level was high, and your phone should have worked for at least a day, the reason may be that as a result of too high a load, the phone was completely discharged. This is especially true in cases when it comes to new smartphones. Their functionality today has reached such a level that they have actually become real mini-computers. But this does not have the best effect on the duration of the device: for example, constantly on Bluetooth or Wi-Fi very quickly “kill” the battery, because the phone is constantly in search of a connection to inform the owner. Therefore, do not forget to disable these options or accustom yourself to use them only as necessary.
What to do if the phone does not turn on precisely for this reason? First, make sure that you are not mistaken: when you turn on the gadget, you will most likely see the screen “come to life” for a moment, and then immediately turn off again and will no longer respond to any of your actions. It is also worth mentioning that you may need to buy a new battery: the average battery life does not exceed 2-2.5 years, after which you will have to replace it.
Step 2. Check the charger
So, your phone does not turn on. You put it on charge, thinking that the battery just sat down, but it takes several minutes, half an hour, an hour, and your device still does not show any signs of life. We advise you to carefully examine the charger itself. There is always a chance that he has lost contact or a damaged wire. Also, the root of the problem can lie in the socket of the smartphone itself - it can easily break or become unusable due to too frequent use. Especially considering that in modern smartphones, the same connector is used for all functions (charging, connecting to a PC, listening to music through headphones, etc.). How to check it? First of all, try to find a universal frog battery and try to charge the battery. If the phone starts working normally, you can safely go to the store and buy a new charger.
In some cases, you can see the following picture: the phone is already connected to the network, but the charging indicator continues to flash. Experts say that there can be two reasons for this. The first is a strong overheating, as a result of which the battery simply does not receive energy. The second is the use of a “foreign” device to recharge the gadget, especially when it comes to low-cost cheap models.
Step 3. Check the on and off button
There is another reason why the phone does not turn on. If you just bought new equipment and did not use it, the manufacturer is 100% responsible for the fault - most likely, you are faced with factory defects. In addition, this situation can occur if you drop the phone or accidentally spill on its water. What to do if the phone does not turn on for this reason? Depending on the situation, the master in the service center can completely replace the keyboard membrane or keyboard controller, restore mounting soldering or conduct a complete cleaning of the device and eliminate moisture that has got inside. Unfortunately, one cannot do without the help of a specialist. And as practice shows, in 20% of all cases of contacting service centers, the problem lies precisely in the on / off button.
Step 4. Caution, software crashes!
Finally, consider what to do if the phone does not turn on after installing updates or flashing. Here, most likely, you are dealing with software crashes and system damage. In some cases, it is enough to just wait: “realizing” that something went wrong, the device will reset itself and return to its normal, working state. If this does not happen, you still have to carry it to the service center so that the master can find out the exact cause of the breakdown and fix it.
And remember: the most important thing is not to panic, even if the phone does not turn on. What to do, you already know. So, do not get confused in a difficult situation. 95% of malfunctions can be eliminated in the nearest service center in less than a day, and the repair cost will not be too high, so your favorite gadget will return to you safe and sound very soon and will continue to serve faithfully.
