Ensure the phone is charged. Connect it to a charger for at least 15-30 minutes. If it still doesn't turn on, try a force restart by holding down the Volume Down button and the Power button simultaneously for 7-10 seconds.
Battery drains quickly
Check battery usage in `Settings > Battery and device care > Battery` to identify power-hungry apps. Reduce screen brightness, disable always-on display, limit background app refresh, and turn off Wi-Fi/Bluetooth when not in use. Ensure all apps are updated.
Apps are slow or crashing
Clear the cache for the problematic app(s) in `Settings > Apps > [App Name] > Storage > Clear cache`. If the issue persists, try restarting your phone. Ensure the app and your phone's software are up to date.
Poor network or Wi-Fi connection
For cellular issues, ensure your SIM card is properly inserted and that you have signal coverage. Try toggling Airplane Mode on and off. For Wi-Fi, restart your router and try forgetting and rejoining the Wi-Fi network on your phone. Resetting network settings (`Settings > General management > Reset > Reset network settings`) can also help.
Camera is not working or taking blurry photos
Ensure the camera lenses are clean and free of smudges. Clear the camera app's cache and data (`Settings > Apps > Camera > Storage > Clear cache` then `Clear data`). Restart your phone. If the problem continues, check for any pending software updates.
