Galaxy S7, auto erased photos, texts, emails, google acct, etc.

Last night phone started an auto erase, could not power off. Erased photos, texts, emails, google acct, had to set up Facebook acct. Tried to power off, nothing I do would stop the display erasing...

Welcome to Android Central! Do you mean it did a full factory reset? After it was done erasing, did you have to set the phone up again as if it were brand new?
