Fire Keeps Shutting Off:
- The simplest solution to try is restarting the device. Hold the power button down for 20 secs – the Fire will turn off. Turn the device on again. This can help to solve.
- Reset the device to factory settings. Go to Settings, Device Options, Reset to Factory Defaults, Reset. Resetting to factory default settings seems to cure many of the battery related issues.
- If your Kindle Fire keeps shutting off when running certain apps, the RAM may be full and the device may be shutting off to try to “fix” the issue. Monitor your apps by RAM consumption. If you find a suspicious app try uninstalling it and see if the reboot issue comes back.
- The issue may be caused by faulty battery. The battery overheating makes the device turn itself off as a protective measure. Although Kindle Fires may become slightly warm to the touch during heavy processing, they should never get very hot. In this case, contact Kindle repair store and request a replacement.
