electrician to replace the loose outlet).
If your battery is completely discharged, it may take several minutes for the device to begin
charging. The battery needs to charge to a minimum voltage before the system can boot up, and
this may take a few moments to achieve.
If you have already been using your phone for a while, sometimes a collection of applications are
using resources and background services that keep your phone more active than it needs to
be. Hold the button in the lower right hand corner and close out of any open applications by
swiping them to the right or selecting the "X" in the upper right hand corner of each window.
A quick and easy test is to reboot your phone if you have not turned it off in a long time (> 1
week). Press and hold the power key to select the Power Off option. Then turn your phone
back on and charge your phone normally. Try to observe if any particular applications that you
use correlate with the phone using dramatically more energy than you expect (discharging faster

If you are stationary in an area in which there is low or no cellular signal, it may be
prudent to enter airplane mode unless you must be able to (try) to make or receive calls or
texts. Doing so will prevent the phone from increasing power output in an attempt to
connect to the weak signal.
