first smartphone

[brownknees]

knowing little about smartphones or Androids I was putting it of buying one but the old Nokia was giving me problems so I went ahead and bought a smartphone(why oh why are they called smartphones!!!),

I didn't buy a real cheapy but one priced at 2500 baht ,this ws in May and after one month the fun started and now the damn thing is useless.When I am o the phone after about ten minutes it cuts out and the screen goes dead but there is still power there as the backpage and settings buttons give a buzz.However I cannot seem to get it to shut down so I leave it on charge and hours later after pressing the off/on button it eventually springs to life.

I thought(stupidly )that most smartphones are made in china but after looking on the net I find mine ws mde in India!!!!!!Name of phone withheld!!!!!!

2500 can only buy a toy. Expect to spend at least 5k for a smartphone. I recommend the Flash plus 2

For 2500 baht, it IS a cheapy. You need to spend about 5000 baht and up to get a more reliable and useable smartphone. Personally, I like Asus,.

Take out the battery if u can - and it will shut down.

It doesn't really matter where it's made, hell my Ipad mini is made in China but quality on electronic devises from China can vary a lot, some are crap and some are pretty good.

I don't know any Indian branded phones but possible just as bad as the cheap China phones.

Which brand are we talking about?

OP sounds like your phone have issues, try a reset or if that don't help a hard reset. Yes taking out the battery can help too, do it sometimes on a old i-mobile i-style 7.1 and it works again.

Do you have anybody (expat) that can help you getting started using smart phones? 1 hour tuition will get you a long way if you are lost.

Good luck with your Indian phone.
