Android Boot Loop - Please Help

[Suka]

Hello, 

 

I have a BLU Life One X, and it is currently out of battery. When I plug in my phone to charge it, it automatically tries to boot up, even though there's not enough battery. As a result, it gets to the splash screen, displaying the BLU logo, and draining what little battery life it had left. This causes it to shut off, and charges just enough to display the splash screen once more, which then causes it to drain once more. This happens over and over and over and over again. (You get the point). 

 

Is this common with Android, and how do I fix this?

Thanks!

No it is not comment with Android

 

Has the battery been faulty and can it be removed?

Try and hit the power button when it pops up to turn off the screen. Sometimes it will let you do that- though most android devices will go into a proper mode before booting where it'll only charge, so that it fills up much faster. After using android for years I haven't heard of that, so I wouldn't call it common.

The battery cannot be removed. The battery has been working fine till now. It lasts a good amount, but it charges extremely slow. Like a full charge would take probably 5 hours.

I will try that! Yeah, see that's the thing. There is a mode where you can charge it without it being on, however, this time, it this time it just doesn't want to do that... it just tries to boot up.

That's very odd. Make sure it's being plugged into the wall and not your computer, and that you're using the power brick supplied to you by the company that made the phone.

I don't even attempt to try to charge it via USB on computer, cause it's so slow, it would take an entire day to fully charge. I am also using the power brick and cable supplied by BLU.

Okay- well see if turning off the screen works. If not, I'll go ahead and look up and try and figure out exactly what is causing it to do that for you.
