Your mobile phone stopped working? Do not be upset! Get expert advice and try to determine whether the device is broken or there is some other cause of failures in its work.

It does not require anything supernatural. Just take a phone SIM-card and insert it into another machine. If it works, then your machine is really something wrong. One of the most frequent complaints of users of mobile terminals - fast low battery. There are two reasons: too much consumes phone or "died" battery itself. In the first case, the phone must be repaired, in the second - you can imagine ... There is another reason - the lack of battery power. The case of the most typical. The first thing that one should pay attention - time charge. If you pull the phone out of charge before the period, the battery is not fully charged and, accordingly, work will be less. It is worth remembering on the service life of batteries of different types and so-called "memory effect" batteries, when eventually it (except for lithium-ion) loses the ability to charge fully.

In this case, it should be "to practice", several times in full discharge and charge the phone. Some phones, for example, Siemens C35, have a built-in function.

Second, what should pay attention - battery time. If a passport is written that the phone must work 240 hours of standby time, and he barely pulls 60 hours, the owner starts to panic. It should be remembered that passport data are given for use of the device in optimal conditions (in the open field, silently standing in the base station).In the concrete metropolis, and even with regular immersion in the subway, the period of work on a single charge is greatly reduced.
