Phone Won't Turn On
No signs of life.
Phone Isn't Charged
If your phone is not turning on, try connecting it to the charger for several minutes. If your phone isn't charging or is still not turning on, read on.
Blocked Charging Port
If your phone won't turn on try plugging in a different charger or battery. Also try plugging in your charger to a different outlet or USB port. Make sure the charging port on the phone is clear of debris.
Wrong Charger
Sometimes different chargers aren't compatible with the phone even though they may appear to fit. Make sure the charger you're using is manufacturer-approved.
Battery Won't Hold Charge or Drains Too Quickly
It dies way too fast.
Bluetooth is Turned On
Access the phone menu and turn off Bluetooth capabilities. Bluetooth drains the battery so turning it off when not in use will help preserve battery life.
Brightness is On Too High
Go to display settings and set brightness and display timeout option to lowest usable level.
Live Wallpapers are Enabled
Disable live wallpapers and widgets. Live wallpapers are pretty and all, but in return they devour your battery life.

Debris can prevent the phone from opening and closing properly. Try cleaning it out.

Restart Phone
Restart the phone by holding down the "end call" button until the screen goes black. Wait for a few minutes, then hold the power button down again until the screen turns on.
Full Memory Storage
Check the memory storage to see if it is at or near full capacity. If it is, consider deleting large files and applications. If you want to keep the files then transfer them to your computer or buy a larger SD card if your phone has one.
If this fails, try turning your phone off and replacing the battery. Then turn your phone back on.

If it is the back speaker: Click here.

Locked Out of Phone
Check to see if you have the password on record somewhere, or ask a friend or family member who has access to the phone.
If all else fails, perform a factory reset. This is your very last resort. A factory reset will delete all the data on your phone, including contacts, messages, pictures, videos, and other saves.
Refer to AT&T's Master Reset Guide.
