    Think you have put this in the wrong forum but any way if you just bought it from a shop bring it back.

    i think we need to establish which version of android it's running first before we can say for definite what the problem is.

    Tried this ?

    On a more serious note. Try another socket, if result is still the same back to the shop you go.

    As tempting as it may be to allow the responses here to continue (I mean, what possessed you to post to the Android forum on this topic?) you are in the wrong forum. Moved to what I suspect is the appropriate place for this.

    Exactly what is tripping ?
    An MCB? If so what is it rated at?

    It should draw about 4.5 amps. So if it is tripping salt a 20A MCB then return to the shop immediately.

    Did you try plugging it into different sockets?
