Smart phone question

Try downloading Malwarebytes and run it. You might have a virus or some such.

I wondered about that. I'll try it a bit later. But why it behaves when plugged in is a mystery to me lol!

Try to give your phone company a call, especially if you have a warranty on your phone. I know when I had problems with my iphone, they were able to fix it for free!

I have no warranty, sadly. I am running a Malwarebytes scan on it right now. Failing all else, I'll phone the repair shop for a price on a battery. I may call my mobile provider first to see if I can do an upgrade but I think it's too early.

Thanks, everyone!

ETA: aaaaand...no malware! Will call someone tomorrow.

I'm glad, the fact that it works plugged in suggests the battery can't hold a charge. Good luck!
