Welcome to Android Central! It might be a hardware problem. See if you can boot into Recovery Mode and wipe the cache partition, then reboot the system: https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-11018

It sounds like there may be a fundamental hardware problem. There may not be much else you can do. If you bring it to a repair shop, they'll probably want to replace the motherboard, which might cost as much as getting a new phone.
