LG Vu Randomly shuts off

I have the same problem and an SD card BUT I've been using the same phone and same card for 6 months now and it JUST started happening. I have to do the same thing... take out the battery and replace it in order for it to turn back on.

It sure doesn't make me a happy camper to find that this is a common problem. My cell is my life line... if its randomly turning off, I'll be missing work calls way too much.

Any solutions from anyone yet?!?

    Another thing to add... is that I also have that annoying orange TV icon showing up now... and I never used to. Could there be a correlation between that and the random power loss?

Hi,

Yeah, the orange TV icon can be annoying, but it is nothing more than the phone notifying you that it can receive the signal required to access the AT&T TV feature. My phone didn't start displaying the icon until I accidentally opened up the TV application.

I have the same issue with my memory card and after browsing LG's site it seems like they're suggesting only SanDisk memory cards work well with the phone. My memory card is a Kingston. Although I've never seen a device that's specific to brand, this is what they seem to be suggesting here:

Hope I could help.

My micro SD card got stuck in my LG Vu phone

Yes there are 2 different places for the SIM card and memory card in the VU, but they are very close together. Try using a small pair of tweezers to gently grab both sides of the card and slowly pull it out.

Phone shuts off

if you droped the Vu than you could have damaged the insides and that might cause the repeating of it shuting off but a easyer way to get music onto your Vu is to get a Micro SD and get an adaptor for it and put music on that and then plug the SD into your phone its alot easyer and faster than useing the cord

hope this helps

Phone shuts off

you might have damaged files on your sd and that is probably causeing the malfunction in which your phone shuts off so if you download from a new site you should be good or get a new sd it might be faulty

hope this helps

LG VU IS SHUTTING DOWN AND AND THE BATTERY DRAINS IN 8 HRS

Take the memory card out if installed. Supposedly this is a known issue that is causing the LG CU920 to shut down. That is what was explained to me by a sales guy at Best Buy. I replaced my phone once before getting that bit of info and have not had a problem since. Unless you count not being able to use a expanded memory card.

My LG VU CU920 keeps turning off

I had the same problem even after I exchanged the phone for a new one. The problem seems to be related to Mobile TV and the SD memory. When I removed my 2GB SD memory, the problem has not reoccurred. I recently installed a 512MB SD memory chip and so far I have not experienced the problem.
