  • First of all, connect the phone to the charger and let it to charge for a few minutes; after that, attempt to turn it on and see if boots up successfully or not;
  • You can also try to plug in your device into a PC or a laptop. Then, you need to hold the power button and the volume down key at the same time for around 10-15 seconds and here you go! In most cases, this is the key to your problem;

  3. Continue holding the Volume Down button until the device finishes rebooting;
  4. You may release it when you can see ‘Safe mode’ in the bottom left corner of the screen;
  5. If your phone boots up in safe mode, then it’s clear that some third-parties are causing the problem. The next task would be to find the culprit and either disable or uninstall them;
  • Deleting the system cache will also force your device to create new ones and those new sets of files may just work properly with the system. So, another option is to wipe the cache partition:

  2. Press and hold the Home+Power+Volume Up buttons at the same time;
  3. You will enter into Recovery Mode right away;

  6. From the recovery mode main menu, choose the reboot system now option;
  7. The last option is not changed and it includes hard resetting your device.

However, if that doesn’t help you either, it can be a hardware problem. The most common point of failure that leads to an issue like this is a bad USB port, usually due to the repeated plugging and unplugging ritual during charging, but you need a technician’s expertise for that!
