My Samsung SCH-u540 keeps turning on and then shutting off

Whenever i turn the phone on the typical red "Vcast" screen comes on the red loading bar loads all the way up and then the phone shuts off and starts all over...the only way to make it stop is by taking the battery out. I've tried taking the battery out and plugging the phone in and the same thing happens......any ideas??

Sounds like you have a defective battery. If you can use the phone normally with the charger plugged into it that is more than likely the problem. Step one is order a new battery. If that don't solve the problem take it into the store, but only if it's under warranty, otherwise shop for a new one.

My phone just blinks vcast now

I work for verizon-take your phone to a verizon store, have them swap it out for a new one. If your phone is under warranty you should be able to swap it out for a new one. If you are in contract the WARRANTY IS GOOD FOR THE LIFE OF THE CONTRACT. Call our Customer care line, don't go back to the store.

I did not care for this answer yesterday when it was given to me. However, it has gotten to the point where you should speak to a Samsung representative. The phone # is 888-987-4357. He/she can probably help you on the phone but if you do have to go into a location, at least you will know

Good luck!

Vcast screen keeps repeating.

It's a software crash, and unfortunately it's unlikely even the technicians in your local Verizon store can fix it. They will almost definitely have to replace it.

The good news is that this is a warranty issue, so if the phone is less than one year old it shouldn't cost you a penny.

The bad news is that any data on the phone is most likely lost :(

Your phone's .scr file is corrupted. Try this first....*228 and Send, wait for it to finish, the phone should power off and on by itself....then go into VCast. If this does not work, then go to the Verizon store and ask them to reflash the phone. If you tell them the problem, they should know what to do....

It sounds like your charger is faulty, or your phones charger connection is faulty, try borrowing the same charger from a friend, if it does the same thing, your phones connection is faulty Regards
