The problem is from the power button, take it to your nearest phone repairer, they will need to remove the complete power button and replace it with another one.

Replacing it won’t generate more faults? U think?

Open from where pls?

The way tecno camon x is structured ehnn..I myself have looked for a way to open the phone and fix but couldn’t find an opening. One time I was so determined to get it opened using some tools I have
Couldn’t find any screw to unscrew

You can't fix by yourself,take it to carlcare.

Tried hard reset?

I'm not a phone guy but hard reset seemed to have worked the times I had similar issues with my 'first and last' Tekno phone.

Hold down the volume and power button at the same time for like 20 seconds.

It should reset and possibly reboot the phone.

Done that a lot of times. My fingers hurt
It didn’t work..problem still persists. Will see tecno office soon

I think you should take it to Carl care for repairs they can tell you what's actually wrong with your phone

You can either take it to Tecno shop or the nearest Carl care centre for repairs

I think it a battery problem so taking it for repairs is your safest option

I think it might be bricked,try taking it to the service center just in case

Or you try out factory reset but if it doesn't work,just take it to the service center

That's the best option no need to keep doing try and error they will sort it just in one check

Fixed at Tecno office or shop boys?

Was yours an inbuilt ba3? Because mine is

At a phone repairer shop in my area.
Mine was also an inbuilt battery

Endeared:
Pls are there phone technicians here who could probably give me an inkling on what’s wrong with my camon x. Since the day the battery went flat,I have not been able to get it started even after charge. It boots for a while,comes on and goes off..and it repeats the process till the battery goes flat again. Phone has an inbuilt battery which further annoys me.

Pls who has experienced this before?
How did you go about the repair?
Is it wise to fix the phone?
Is the phone now useless?
Can phones with inbuilt batteries be fixed especially when it has to do with battery problem?

Lalasticlala pls

take it to carlcare. They'll fix it for you

atheistandproud:

Go and replace the battery and thank me later.

Pls where can i source for a good battery

The problem might be with your device panel, take it to a carlcare store for a proper check

Pls where can i source for a good battery

You can source for a good battery at any TECNO store or any carlcare store

You can try out the manual factory reset, if it still doesn't work, take it for a fix

After posting my phone issue. I still felt I needed to come back to this thread full of useful suggestions to tell u guys how I finally got the phone repaired.

I took to a technician who has a space in front of a phone shop. Told him the problem of the phone...he said it’s a power button issue and it will cost me #1500 for repairs. I will fully dropped my phone for repair. Came back for it by evening and behold my phone was handed over to me in good health

Thanks to everyone here for the trailer load of suggestions. Nairaland is a family.

Lastly, instead of opening another thread. Pls I need to know how long a new SIM card should become active and useable. I bought and registered for a new sim at an Mtn retail store (not Mtn office) yesterday morning. Was charged 1k(quite high for something I learned used to be 500). Tried loading card on the sim from someone’s VTU...never saw the credit. Tried calling the line using my other phone,a voice said it wasn’t active.
Till now (Sunday)new sim has not been activated. Tried calling the line...same issue.

Still angry I didn’t go to an Mtn office to this registration. Maybe it could have been much more easier.


Pls what do u guys suggest?

I am reading pls
