Mobile phone won't switch on

    Have also posted this in Android Devices

    I have a Vodafone Smart 2 Android phone since December. Yesterday I noticed that the Twitter and Facebook apps weren't working (force close message kept appearing). Eventually I switched off the device and when I went to switch it on again, the following happened:

    Phone starts up and Android logo appears
    Vodafone start up animation begins then freezes before phone switches on fully
    This happens by itself over and over
    The power button won't turn off the phone

    It didn't get wet and I can't see any other reason for this malfunction. Am completely clueless as to how to fix, or at least try, to fix this problem.

    Can anyone suggest anything I could try please?
