Check Data Usage
- My Data: Tap on “My Data” to check the status of your SIM card. If it indicates that the data package has expired or there is no remaining data, recharge the necessary data package and check again.
- External SIM Cards: If “My Data” displays “Not Supported,” use alternative methods to check the SIM card status and remaining data.
Check for Accessory Issues
- SD card: If you have a SD card, power off the camera, remove the SD card, and observe. If the camera works normally after removing the card, the issue might be with the SD card. Consider removing or replacing it.
- Power Adapter: If the adapter might be faulty, replace it with another one of the same specifications and check. If the issue resolves, the adapter may be damaged.
