today my phone exactly at 11:30 pm randomly shut off wasnt sure where or how it started i was moving my amazon app to my sd card and poof my phone shut off so i took out the battery and updated the software  just in case then i tried moving amazon to my sd card poof off again so i had to remove the battery and restart the phone .. i could not tell if its from moving the app to sd card or the phone or the fact that today is the last day of my billing cycle  i checked online and cricket wireless indicated " billing running services'  why would that shut off my phone ...my phone shut off and i had to put it back on every 12 minute then it stopped  then it acted up again then stopped  ,this is a new phone i just bought it a few days ago

There is a chance that this is a software issue so if you bought the phone within 7 days just simply return it to the store you bought so that they can replace your phone. Also there is a chance that there is an automatic power off on your phone make sure that its off as well .
