Cell Phone Screen flashing

When I try to turn on my phone all it does is flash on and off and will not come on. I have tried taking the battery out and let it sit for a few minutes and over night. I have tried charging it also. I was wondering if there is a reset button or something that will get it out of this mode. It does not appear that any of the buttons are stuck. I'm not sure how this happen, all I know is that my daughter (6 yrs old) got ahold of it and did something to it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Thats sounds like a software issue so you'll need to take it to a phone repair and get them to flash the software. It well be ok.

Gzone Black/Silver phone freezes during startup at second verizon wireless logo screen...waits 5 seconds and tries to re-boot again, repeating same over and over til you pull the battery. Will not boot up....

Hi, when a phone it is continuously rebooting, it means that memory has been affected by VIRUS.

VIRUS can damage a phone in no time. VIRUS can be caused by downloading applications on your phone through the internet, or might be from data transfer from a phone to another phone.

To remove the VIRUS, you will need to flash the phone memory. Flashing the phone will restore back the phone to it normal state.

You can use this link to see how to flash your phone

Flashing a cell phone will erase carrier data from the memory. Cellular companies can usually do this for a fee. Online buyer sites sell the software kit that will flash a cell phone from home computers.

To flash a phone you will need to rewrite the PRL file by connecting your phone to a computer with the needed equipment. Your best bet is to take your phone to a dealer that flashes phones on a regular basis. For more information

hi
i have two solutions for you:
1- remove SIM Card and try to turn on your phone.
2- try turn on your phone with another battery.
maybe the lifetime of your battery is ended or it is damaged.

otherwise take your phone to a phone servicing center and then ask for FLASH.
(Flash your phone)

Im trying to charger my lg voyager on my computer through a usb charger but the screen wont turn on!?

WON'T TURN ON

Hi,when a phone does not come on, it is either the battery of the phone is dead,
might need to be charge or replaced with another battery.

you can use another battery to test if it is the battery the fault.

The other thing to check is if the phone memory is weak and may need to be restored
back the phone memory.
will need to be flashed.
if too weak to power up the phone all application you downloaded on the phone has
VIRUS and has affected the phone memory.

First Charge the battery for longer hours before using another battery to confirm
if the battery cell is the problem.

If not battery, in think you will have to flash the phone memory for it to come back to life.
You can use the link below to know about how to flash the phone.

Frozen ''hellomoto'' screen on Razor V3c when turning on phone

your firmware is corrupt, the only way to revive your phone is re flashing it.Its hard to do, and by doing it wrong may damage your phone. To safely retrieve your phone is let the experts do it or go to a near cell repair shop and let them help you out,

if you want to do it your self, try this

first you need is a RSD lite program or flash and back-up to flash or reformat your Motorola,

to enter the bootloader

hold * then the # then power button, your phone will boot to bootloader, and you will see there the flash program of your phone,

start the program rsd lite or flash and backup
then connect it to your computer VIA usb, automatically the program will detect your phone,

i prefer that you first buck up your firmware by using F&B (Flash and backup) then use RSD lite to flash your Motorola,

RSD lite its much easier to use than F&B, but for safety backup first your firmware,

gudluck
