This occurs when the Closed Captioning is set to Text. Turn off the closed Captioning or select some other mode. Sometimes there is a button on the remote control with an icon on it that looks like two letter C’s in a box that does this. If not, you have to go into the TV’s menu and look in the Settings or Audio menu to figure out how to change the Closed Captioning settings.

Try the following and see if it will turn on. 1. Remove the battery. 2. Press and hold the "Power" button for 20 seconds. 3. Now put the battery back in. 4. Plug it in to charge and allow it to fully charge before turning it on. If this doesn't help, then test the charger cord to see if it is good. Either try your cord in another device, or try another devices cord on your device. Should that not be the problem, then check the battery to see if it needs replacing. NOTE: Yes, I know some phone batteries are not so easy to get to, on some devices. In such a case, make sure that your phone is not under warranty still before you try opening it up yourself. If it is under warranty, then contact the manufacturer first.
