LG V3 Safe Mode

[pingme1972]

I've done everything I've read here and still stuck in safe mode.

Worst part is the back up lost half of my contacts!

This is extremely frustrating, the other day the camera turned on by itself and began to take pictures, before that it was turning off and on all by itself.

I looked up my account with Sprint, $40 to pay off this POS LG and then it'll be $9 per month for two years for a new replacement.

This really sucks.

This LG is not a good phone, but it was more durable than the IPhone.

Really aggravated, lost my boyfriends phone number.

I am including the ways (and there are a few) to exit "Safe Mode". See if they work for you. Also, you should be able to log into your account on the service providers/carriers website and get a list of the numbers you have called/texted and those that have called/texted you.

To get out of Safe Mode, please try the following.

1. Touch and Hold the "Power" key.

2. Tap "Power Off".

3. Once the phone is off, Touch and Hold the "Power" key again to restart.

The phone should now be out of "Safe Mode".

If the "Safe Mode" is still running after you restart your phone, I would then check to make sure your "Volume Down" button is not stuck. Check to see if it has anything stuck in it as well, dust, etc. Anything like this can cause the phone to go into, and get stuck in, "Safe Mode".


If that doesn't work try this...

Use the "Status Bar" to turn off "Safe Mode'. Pull down (swipe) the "Status Bar" of your phone. Now tap the "Safe Mode" button. This should turn "Safe Mode" off. Now your phone will automatically restart, so that it boots up out of "Safe Mode".

And lastly...


If you want to get rid of/disable "Safe Mode".

1. First turn off the phone.

2. Next press and hold "Power" until you see the manufacturers logo on the screen, then release the power button.

3. "Quickly" press "Volume Down" and hold it for few seconds until you see the message "Safe Mode: OFF" or something similar.

4. If you wanted re-enable it, simply repeat the steps above, and you should see "Safe mode: ON" rather than off.

Side Note: That is one of the many reasons I said goodbye to standard plans with companies. Been using Virgin Mobile for years now. So much simpler, and unlike most carriers, that #MB limit doesn't cut off your service or charge you more money when you pass whatever the number is. It just slows down your data speed. Love the lack of overages. And they use Sprints network, so where ever there is Sprint service you get service.
