My daughter has a Moto Z2 Play and it will randomly shut itself off. It's not a battery issue because when you get it powered back on it will have anywhere from 40% up. It's an instant shutdown. To get the phone started again I had to hold the power button for about 10 seconds. This just started within the past week or so.
I checked to see if it needed an update but it showed current.
It happens both Wifi and network.
It has happened in multiple activities...listening to music, VOIP phone, regular phone, no clear pattern.
Has anyone had any odd issues with random power downs like this?

j380,
Help is here! You deserve top-not technical assistance at all times & I regret that has not been happening. We want to make sure that your device does not power off & give you a hard time powering back on. Allow me to gather some information to make sure we get this situation resolved as quickly as possible. When did this problem start to happen? (A few days ago? A few weeks ago?) Around the time this started to happen, do you recall downloading any new apps or was there a new software update performed? Is there any physical or liquid damage to your device?

jj380,
I'm sorry to learn of the issues you are having with the devices. Since you are both having the same issue and you're using the same device, I'd need to gather some additional information. Instead of going back and forth, I've sent you a Direct Message.

It disappoints me to hear that several people here are experiencing similar issues with the same model. We strive for the best customer service. I am not finding any other reports or known shutting down issues for the Moto Z2 Play. Not to worry, I am confident that we can help you figure this out D.Zimmerman.
Is there any type of physical or water damage (https://goo.gl/VEPbuL) on her device? Does she receive any type of warning or errors before it shuts down? How often does she restart her device or does she never turn it off?

This is EXACTLY what happens to mine and it started right after the new operating system was down loaded. No updates since have fixed the problem and tech services hasn't helped a bit

This is not the type of experience that we want for you! Software updates are designed to improve your device and not the other way around. We'd love the opportunity to help you with this issue, and in doing so, we'd like to ask some questions. How much battery does the phone have when it turns off? Are you doing something in the device when this issue happens?

As I stated in my post, I had this issue and it was all about memory management. Unfortunately, there was no support to be found anywhere about this. I had to troubleshoot it myself, but was finally able to get my phone working again.

I had this problem. I took it to the Verizon store and they checked it out. Said it was just a manufacturing default and gave me a new one for free. I was still under contract.

Problems are never fun when it involves your cell phone, ray_dye. Had this issue resurfaced itself since you had your phone replaced?

How frustrating is it to see NUMEROUS other customers experiencing the same issues as I am. I began having issues after the 711 upgrade. Battery life quickly drained. Then occasionally it would cut off on it's own. I was able to restart so ok...irritating but I can deal. Then it became more frequent. NOW...I play heck getting it to restart. Often it just will NOT ! It will show no charge...but it does have charge. At times it gets hot. I am 9 months from upgrade but out of warranty. I have the protection plan...but the deductible for this obvious Trainwreck phone is $149. I am a widowed 63 yr old long time Verizon customer that has had it ! This phone is useless if o were to have an emergency situation. There is obviously a serious design issue with this model. And now I am unable to afford to pay my monthly payment AND scrape up $149 for a refurbished Trainwreck that is no secret continuing to happen. Is ANYONE seeing the customer is being shafted here !!!??? Is Verizon or Motorola doing anything about this ???

I am having this issue as well with my phone it cuts off randomly and often when I power it back up my battery life has dropped substantially according to the phone it is up to date on updates I deleted some photos and apps but to factory reset my phone I will lose all of my data I have an SD card but when w I try to move items to the SD card it seems that this is unsuccessful I'm not losing all of my contacts and pictures to do a factory reset there's no evidence that doing that will solve the problem and I can't risk losing all of my information and not even solve the problem.
Do you have another suggestion thanks Crystal
