I just bought the zte score a month ago and it already messes up numerous times. The main problem I'm having at the moment is it won't boot up when I turn it on. It just continously goes to the start up screen over and over. This has happened to me before and it started to work within 3 hours but this time it won't. I need my phone to work because I'm a mother and my son is with his father so he needs to get a hold of me. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
 
Cricket tech support told me that turning the phone off, removing the battery and then putting the battery back after a few seconds fixes most problem with the Score.

Let us know if that works.


I've tried that a million times it still won't work. I mean before when it did it, it finally turned on within 3 hours but now it's been like 3 days. I just need it to work for like a week or 2 then I'm getting a new phone when I get money for one.

The ZTE Origin – Continuous reboot fix when all else fails...

-- The ZTE Origin I received in January when I started my service will not boot. Apparently it is a known concern. It only gets as far into the boot-up as the a Android icon then repeats. I have tried removing the battery - still will not boot. Is there a fix?

-- The assumption is that there is no physical damage to the phone.

-- In this case it will be necessary to perform a factory reset or hard reset.

**** All of your phone information phone numbers, address book, added apps, from the time you first started your phone will be deleted. So you best have backup! ***

-- To start this fix process you will need you to: Press the "power button and the volume down button at the same time" and hold both for 10 seconds (until the Android icon with an exclamation icon appears)

-- Then tap the "home" icon at the bottom of the screen

-- Use the up/down button and choose the option "wipe data/factory reset"

-- Use the volume button for up/down menu selection.

-- Tap the icon with 3 lines next to the house and use the up/down button to select "yes-delete all user data"

-- On the list you may see several ‘No’s’ Select 'yes delete all data'

-- Then tap the icon that says "reboot system now".

-- For simplicity and to get the phone up and running skip the Google part for now if it comes up.
