Has anyone had ANY SUCCESS with the so called Customer Service?  I've tried all the suggestions on the many forums related to this issue and contacted CS, who seemingly is only interested in if it has water or corrosion damage.  UGH!

If anyone has any ideas on how to resolve this random shutdown/battery malfunction/camera app misfire, please let me know.

Anyone find anything on this? My phone just started doing the same exact thing.

There is no damage to the Moto Z2 Play that I am referring to above. The turn-off issue is not happening as frequently now, but it's still happening.

I'm sorry to hear that your phone is having these same issues, Hahehachoo. It's important to us that your device is working properly and not shutting off. Have there been any changes to the device since this started happening? Ho long ago did this start? Does your phone have any physical or liquid damage?

It started about 3 weeks ago. No physical or liquid damage. Typically happens when the phone gets to around 56 percent or below. When i am able to get it back on it is often then at about 30 percent.

My guess is that it's a corrupt app on your devices. Go into your Google account and ensure your all you photos, apps with data, etc are backed up to to Google Drive.

Go into settings and search Backup. The only result I get is

Backup

settings

Choose that and ensure backup is turned on.  Tell it to backup now (may take awhile) and then you can do a factory data reset. After the factory data reset, Google will ask you to restore apps & data, choose yes; take a nap, because it takes a while to restore all you data. You will need to set up your home screen, log into most of your apps, but all your photos & app data should be there. I've had to do this once or twice on a couple of my Android devices over the years. Goog Luck!

The backup function can be found in Settings - System - Backup. You'll notice that if it's turned on, it will basically backup everything... SMS, phone calls, everything.
