Question

Can someone help me fix my android?

Nov 5, 2018 6:03PM PST

I was on my android device and it got to 0% and turned off, obviously. Right now it's charging but I can't turn the device on. It's stuck on the charging symbol and I can't see the battery percentage. Can anybody help with this issue?

I can only write that sometimes I find I have to unplug after it charges up and try button presses of various duration. Or unplug the battery, wait then plug it in and try again. As I'm not there I can't offer much more. If it's dead, it's dead.

For this kind of problem, it would be better to bring your phone to the store where you bought it with the invoice as a voucher and expose your worries.
