@jackiehanna power supply for sure. Phone chargers do not provide a stable enough current.

[jackiehanna]

@markyh444 what chargers do you recommend my lad

[markyh444]

@jackiehanna the official one is pretty good my son

[jackiehanna]

@markyh444 wait what official one mine didn't have an official charger

[jackiehanna]

@markyh444 my pi didn't have an official charger

@jackiehanna That doesn't mean you can't buy one. Lots of vendor sell it separately or have a special bundle including it.

[jackiehanna]

@mitu I know but like what is the brand and if I go to a phone place what should I buy the data transfer white one or any android charger and are u sure the problem is the charger

[jackiehanna]

@mitu anyway thanks for the answer your a real megabro

I don't understand what you're trying to say.

@jackiehanna No it just needs to be good quality and have an output of 5 Volt and 2.5 Ampere.
