What to do if android does not turn on. If Android won't load beyond the logo

In our world, people can no longer imagine life without a smartphone. He became an extension of our hand. For most, the breakdown of their favorite gadget will cause panic and tantrum. This, of course, is not very good, but you have to put up with it. Modern mobile devices- very capricious things. They sometimes behave in an unpredictable manner. In order not to be left without communication, you need to know what to do with the device, if it suddenly "kicked up" and does not react to the user's actions. The most common problem with gadgets is that the phone does not turn on beyond the screen saver. What to do in order to revive your "pet"? Let's try to give an answer to this.

Possible causes of breakdown

There are several reasons for this behavior of a smartphone. And depending on them, a decision on repair will be made. The first (and most common) reason that the phone does not turn on beyond the "Android" screensaver is a failure during the installation of the update operating system... This happens because the Android OS is not very stable. This is not so bad. However, the same result can be obtained after the device falls from a considerable height. This is much worse.

Also common reasons can be a malfunction of the battery, charger, or the gadget charging connector itself. Now let's take a look at the screensaver. In most cases, you can fix everything yourself. Fatal breakdowns are extremely rare. But on initial stage the main thing is to correctly diagnose the problem in order not to make mistakes in the future.

System crash

This is the safest thing that can be. If the operating system crashes, you need to go into recovery mode and reset the factory settings with clearing the cache. Be careful! After this procedure, there will be no third-party applications installed by the user. You can enter the recovery by holding down the volume button up and the power button at the same time. True, for different models devices can be different combinations. Then you need to go to the point Wipe data and factory reset and confirm your choice. Then you need to check the box Reboot system now. after that the phone will reboot. If everything is fine, then the reason that the phone does not turn on beyond the Lenovo screensaver was precisely a system failure.

Sometimes a factory reset doesn't help. Then there is another option. You just need to reflash your phone. This is not so difficult to do. The web is full of instructions for each specific smartphone. And on any adequate forum you will be happy to help you implement your plans. Don't be discouraged.

If the reason is the battery and charging

This can be verified very simply. It is enough to find a similar battery and a similar charger somewhere. If, after replacing all the components, you do not see any changes, then the reason that the HTC phone does not turn on beyond the splash screen is much deeper than you thought. There are only two options here: breakage of the charging socket or the board itself.

Deal with faulty battery Or "glitchy" charging is simple. These are not particularly expensive smartphone components. They can simply be replaced with new ones. The problem with the hardware board will be much more noticeable. Here (in most cases) one cannot do without a visit to the workshop. Sometimes you have to pay a very significant amount for repairs.

If the reason is in the board and hardware

It is very difficult to do something with this on your own. You need to have certain knowledge in radio electronics and own the appropriate tool. If you have all this, then you can easily solve the problem. But if the phone does not turn on beyond the screensaver due to a faulty board, and you do not understand anything in this matter, then it is better to take the gadget to a service center. For by arranging repairs with your own strength, you run the risk of turning your device into a dead brick.

You can try to find a familiar specialist in repairing the "hardware" of smartphones and save on repairs. Only it is unlikely that he will reanimate your device for free. Only if this is a very good friend. But, in any case, you will have to spend money on the "magarych". And it is not known how much this will result.

Summary

Now you know the main reasons for the next screensaver. There are ways to combat this unpleasant phenomenon. Unless it's a hardware problem. But, as statistics show, in most cases such a problem is caused precisely by a failure of the operating system. And it is very easy to eliminate this annoying misunderstanding with the help of a few buttons.

If you have problems with a wet gadget, do not connect it to the mains and stop pressing the buttons. as soon as possible and only then follow the advice in this article.

If you are sure that the inside of your smartphone is dry, feel free to continue.

1. Perform a forced restart of the device

Your phone may be on, but just frozen. In this case, the screen may be dark and unresponsive to any actions. So first try restarting your device using the hardware keys.

How to Force Restart iPhone

On iPhone SE, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus, and older, hold down the Home key along with the Top (or Side) button for 10 seconds or more until the Apple logo appears.

On iPhone 7 or iPhone 7 Plus, hold down the Side key along with the Volume Down button for 10 seconds or more until you see Apple logo.

On an iPhone 8 or iPhone 8 Plus, hold down and immediately release the Volume Up key and then the Volume Down key. Then press and hold the side button until the Apple logo appears.

How to force restart an Android smartphone

Press and hold the power button and volume down key at the same time for 10-15 seconds. If successful, the device will restart automatically or display a menu on the screen in which you will need to select the restart command.

Some Android smartphones may restart using different buttons. If the device does not respond, search the Web for a combination of keys to restart your particular model.

2. Take out the battery and put it back

If your phone has a removable battery, remove the cover and slide the battery out of the device. Wait at least 30 seconds and replace the battery. Then try turning on the phone in the usual way - using the power button.

3. Put your phone on charge

Connect your phone to a wall outlet using the original charger. If within an hour the charging indicator does not appear on the display and you cannot turn on the device, check the integrity and cleanliness of the connector, as well as the condition of the power cable and adapter. If possible, try different outlets and replace the cable and / or adapter.

4. Reset the machine to factory settings

If the screen lights up after trying to turn it on, but the device does not boot properly, try a factory reset using the hardware buttons.

During a system reset, you may lose personal data that has not been synced to the server. Do not do this if you are afraid to erase important information.

How to reset iPhone to original settings

Connect your phone to your computer with a cable and launch iTunes. Then force restart iPhone (see step 1). When you see the Apple logo, continue to hold the buttons until the recovery mode appears on the smartphone screen.

After that, a window with further instructions... Click "Update" and follow the prompts from the system.

iTunes will download the correct software for your phone. If this process takes more than 15 minutes, the iPhone may exit recovery mode. In this case, hold down the forced restart buttons again and hold them until the device returns to this mode.

If the update works, the phone may turn on without resetting the system. If not, then in the iTunes window, click "Restore" to restore the factory settings.

How to reset an Android smartphone to its original settings

Make sure your smartphone is turned off and try the following reset combinations:

  • volume up key + power button;
  • volume down key + power button;
  • volume down key + volume up key + power button;
  • volume down key + power button + home key.

You need to hold down all the keys at the same time and hold them for about 10-15 seconds. After that, a special menu will appear on the screen, in which you should select the Recovery item, and then the Wipe data / factory reset command. If you do not see this command in Recovery mode, hold down the power button and momentarily press the volume up key.

After these steps, the smartphone should return to its original settings within a few minutes. If none of the key combinations work or you don't find the commands you need in the service menu, look for the reset instructions for your device model.

Modern electronics needs both hardware power and software. If the most powerful Android tablet cannot be launched, it makes no sense. However, in most cases, a device that has fallen into such a cover can be saved.

The nature of the problem

Why do you get in trouble when the tablet turns on, but does not load beyond the logo (like smartphones, by the way), or does not turn on at all?

  • Flashing error. Similar incidents happen if you (or a would-be master from a service center) try to install firmware on a tablet designed for another device. It is possible that during the installation process, there was a sudden power failure and the computer from which you were installing the firmware turned off.
  • Full battery discharge. A rather rare reason, however, it does take place (in particular, with Lenovo tablets).
  • Clogged memory. When loading anyone modern device need free memory(). If there are problems with it, the tablet may take an unbearably long time to load and never fully boot.
  • Mechanical damage. As a rule, they manifest themselves in a complete failure of the device to turn on, but there are exceptions.

With the tablet turned off, we are unlikely to be able to carry out an accurate diagnosis (except in cases of mechanical damage, traces of which remained on the case). But the recovery methods are general in any case.

How to solve the problem?

Recovery mode

Modern Android devices are equipped with special means recovery. Recovery Mode is designed to work with the system "at a low level". Through this mode, you can install a new firmware or a program deeply embedded in the system (for example, Google Apps). But the easiest way is to enter Recovery Mode and reset the system.

For different models the entrance to the recovery is done in different ways. As a rule, for this you need to turn off the device, and turn it on again, hold down the power button together with the volume up (or down) key already pressed. However, some manufacturers are creative and apply their own solution (for example, with a Home button - like Apple). Therefore, before the procedure, search the Internet for how to enter recovery mode specifically on your model.

In the menu that appears, the touch display will not work. You need to move up and down through its items with the volume buttons, and confirm with the power button. Select Wipe Data Factory and apply. Then select Reset and reboot the tablet normally.

Of course, if you haven't made any backups, then your apps and personal data will be reset. But they are not difficult to restore, especially if you have enabled the constant.

Flashing through a computer

If you cannot enter Recovery mode, then try restoring the tablet through a computer. There are many utilities for this purpose, however, for each specific model (or chipset) you need to choose the right application.

So, for tablets on NVidia processors, the developer has released a special application called NVFlash. There is a RockChip RK Batch Tool application for flashing models on RockChip. Other manufacturers also release their own utilities for flashing. It is important to study the characteristics of your tablet and find the right software.

Important: find the firmware version that exactly matches the hardware features of your tablet. Otherwise, the gadget can be completely destroyed.

Hardware solution

Sometimes it is impossible to save the device using software methods at all. Then the only solution is to completely change the main board with all the chips. As a rule, it can be ordered from online stores (most often in Chinese). If you are confident in the straightness of your hands and have the necessary equipment (you can hardly cope with a simple soldering iron with a wide tip and a screwdriver), then you can carry out the procedure yourself. It will cost you incomparably less than buying a new tablet.

Users who are not confident in their abilities can contact the service centers. Yes, the procedure will be somewhat more expensive there. But you will have to wait less, and the repair will be carried out efficiently. And it is also cheaper than buying a new similar tablet.

Yes, your personal data and settings will inevitably die. But (see above) they can be restored through cloud services or simply manually.

It is important - how to prevent the occurrence of such problems

If you want to be prepared for such problems and get out of a difficult situation without loss, we advise you to do the following things:

  • Turn on data sync across all accounts you trust: Google first. Activate the backup photo upload to Google+ or Facebook. By default, photos are saved in hidden albums, accessible only to you. If something goes wrong with your device, you can return all your data after restoring it (or buying a new one).
  • Back up your apps regularly, preferably to a memory card or even cloud storage. We recommend the Titanium Backup application, which can save not only the applications themselves, but also their settings and data, as well as send copies of them to the Dropbox server. Moreover, we advise you to buy a licensed copy of this application: in case of problems, it will pay off.
  • Don't clutter up your tablet memory. Try to install only the most necessary applications and games, and if possible, install them on a memory card. When choosing a card, pay attention to at least grade 10, and preferably UHS-I. Only such cards will provide you with a decent speed of work. We strongly advise against saving on little things and buying cards of the 4th class.
  • Protect your device from physical damage. The advice is no longer new, but never superfluous.

Most owners of modern gadgets have repeatedly encountered situations when the device malfunctioned or did not respond to commands. Unfortunately, almost all smartphones fail from time to time, regardless of the manufacturer and price.

Today we will consider the problem when the Lenovo phone does not turn on, and we will analyze the reasons for this.

Lenovo cell phones often have problems with software and hardware components, especially if we are talking about budget models. One of the most common is spontaneous shutdown and lack of subsequent reaction to different actions user. Although the situation seems dire, at first glance, only in extreme cases will a service repair or replacement of a smartphone be required. The sources of these breakdowns are of three types:

  • Hardware - the problem is in the "hardware" after falls, temperature jumps, tests by the sun, moisture and sand.
  • Software - directly related to the operating system, viruses and failures.
  • External - most often, the breakdown of the charger is mistaken for a malfunction in the smartphone itself.

Let's take a closer look at the reasons why it does not turn on Lenovo phone, and ways to solve them.

Trouble-shooting

In this section, we will look at the most common problems due to which Lenovo will not turn on:

  • Full battery discharge and other related battery problems.
  • Firmware update failures.
  • Software problem.
  • Virus attack.
  • Mechanical damage to internal parts.

Full battery discharge

Battery problems can be temporary and permanent and have different ways solutions:


Incorrect system update

From time to time, the Android OS firmware and its shell are updated, but during the process, failures may occur. Often after installation new version system, the technician turns into a non-working "brick". However, do not rush to replace it with another model, this is solved by rolling back to the factory settings.

It is done using Recovery Mode. Three buttons are simultaneously clamped in the following sequence:

  • Volume rocker.
  • Without releasing the previous one, the return key to the Desktop.
  • In parallel with them, the power on and off button.

A menu will appear on the screen. The pointer moves up and down with the volume rocker, respectively. You must select the Factory Reset item, confirm your choice and wait for the process to complete.

If after that the smart does not work, then you need to contact a specialist, and he himself will be engaged in flashing the system.

Software glitches

Even more often, cell phones based on Android do not start due to different kinds software glitches. The manufacturer and developers of the system have foreseen such scenarios, therefore, it is advised to do a factory reset in such cases. We have already discussed how to do it above.

Please note that sequential key presses will not work on some models to start recovery mode. It is launched by a special button on the end of the case, which looks like a small hole, using a needle or a special pin that comes with the kit.

Viruses

Viruses are another popular cause of difficulties with Android technology. They get in by downloading files and applications from unknown sources, and can seriously damage the system data required to run. Most likely, a flashing will be required, which will completely delete the information. But in some cases, the service center specialists still undertake manual cleaning of the system storage from viruses and malware.

You can avoid this outcome by first downloading anti-virus software, for example, Dr.Web or ESET.

Mechanical damage and moisture ingress

Consider the most popular types of mechanical damage that interfere with switching on:

  • Breakage of the screen (malfunction of the loop, display, or moisture ingress through the seams).
  • The charging socket is dirty. Dust, cloth threads from clothes or crumbs get into it. you need to be careful using a regular needle for this.
  • Breakage of the contacts of the gadget with batteries. This can be both oxidation and mechanical stress, which led to deformation.
  • Damaged power button. If the device is new, then most likely it is a factory defect.
  • The worst of the options is a burned-out power controller that manages charging.

Ask a question to the virtual expert

If you still have questions, ask the virtual expert, the bot will help you find the problem and tell you what to do. Talk to him about life or just chat, it will be interesting and informative!

If your device on the Android platform freezes, does not turn on or does not work, blinks that it is charging, but the download still stands still and nothing happens, then the following tips can help you.
If you need to solve the problem of incorrect loading or freezing when turning on the android, then you must clear the settings and memory of your Android device for further correct loading of the operating system.

The first step if the android freezes at startup is to delete the settings. To do this, hold down the power key and do not release it for 10 seconds - then the smartphone or tablet will turn off. The power button can be turned off when the screen is completely blank. Next, you need to turn on the gadget again. To do this, press the volume (+) key and then the power button. In the menu that appears, use the volume keys to select the Settings item (it is possible to write in English - Settings). The selection button in such a menu will be the power key.


In the Settings menu, you need to select system formatting. With this action, absolutely all files are deleted from your device, except for the system ones. There is no way to save them. You can also pull out the memory card because it cannot be formatted. This operation can be done separately, if you need it, of course. After formatting, select the Reset Android item and reboot the device. Now the android should not freeze when turned on.
Also, if the android freezes when turned on, then there is another way to solve the problem. The result obtained will not differ from the first method. All settings will also be reset with the loss of all data.
1.First you need to turn off your device. The on / off key must be held until you feel a slight vibration. Now you can let go.

2.Next, hold down both volume keys and wait for the context menu to appear.
3.In this menu, find the Clean boot item and select it. Use the volume keys to navigate between menu items. Press the camera button to confirm your selection.
4.After the factory reset, your device will reboot. Next, you can turn on your device and check if it works correctly.
Both methods are simple and affordable for all users. Therefore, if the android freezes when turned on, then now you can fix all the problems without the help of specialists and not spend a lot of money on those services that you yourself can provide to your Android device.

The reasons for the breakdown and why it turns on, but does not load

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If Android does not load on your phone or tablet when you turn it on, or your Android smartphone starts up, but does not go beyond the logo splash screen, then the reasons for this may be the following:

  • Errors when flashing the device. These include the installation of an unsuitable or damaged assembly, incorrect firmware order, power failure, and other factors.
  • Out of memory. The system may not start or boot very slowly due to insufficient memory. The solution may be to optimize applications and remove unnecessary data.
  • Memory card incompatibility. If the smartphone turns on but does not boot completely, try removing the memory card and trying to restart the system.
  • Hardware problems after being hit, dropped, spilled, or exposed to extreme temperatures.
  • Damage to the power button or its cable, which "closes" the phone and it goes into a cyclic reboot, loading up to the logo and then in a circle. We come across this periodically and can only be diagnosed at a service center.

Read How to Check Android for Errors

Before trying to fix a problem with Android, you need to understand why the system does not boot.

Restoration of performance

If the phone shows that the charge is on, then the causes of the problem should be looked for in the Android Launcher. If the device vibrates or its screen flickers, then there is a possibility that the screen is damaged.

If you determine that the problem is software in nature (for example, the problem arose after a firmware update), then a simple reboot will not help here. You need to reset the system via Recovery Mode or reflash the device. Let's see what to do:

  1. While holding the power button and the volume down key (there may be other combinations, look for your model), go to Recovery Mode. If the phone does not enter Recovery Mode, then the problems are at a deeper level, so you need to contact the service center.
  2. Perform a factory reset by selecting "Wipe data factory".
  3. Select "Reset" to reboot the device.

A factory reset will erase your personal data and user settings. If this method did not help, perform a flashing. To do this, drop the file with the appropriate firmware into the root of the memory card, insert the drive into the phone and select “Install zip from sdcard” in Recovery Mode.
