Many things can happen to our phones. The battery is abnormally discharged, performance is poor, or the camera is malfunctioning. However, the worst thing that can happen to a device we have invested hundreds of euros in is that the phone screen does not respond to touch or the phone is locked directly while using the application.
In the olden days, when smartphones had extrapolated batteries, the only solution to this error was to remove the back cover of the device, remove the batteries, wait a few seconds, put them back in, and turn on the phone. Due to the unibody design of most phones sold today, this “manual reset” of smartphones is not possible today. Fortunately, you can force a restart of the phone to remove the content on the device to solve the problem without going through the factory respect. This restart will only kill corrupted or invalid files.
How to restart your phone
If the lock button responds, you’re lucky to be able to turn off or restart your mobile by choosing one of the on-screen options that appear when you press the on and off buttons. But what if none of the buttons on your smartphone work?
If your mobile stops unexpectedly, doesn’t respond to commands, or is blocked by your application, you can: Press the force restart of the mobile phone to hold the volume down button and power button at the same time. Depending on the brand, you may have to wait a bit, but you can see that the screen turns off, the logo appears on the Android screen, and the smartphone is turned off and then back on. Pressing and holding just one of the volume buttons, XNUMX, may enter alternative modes such as download mode and mobile recovery mode, but this does not resolve the issue at this time.
This will cause the phone to reboot to correct this type of error if the failure is in the software or a particular application. When turned on again, it can be used normally and you can detect if the problem reoccurs when you perform certain actions, such as opening a particular app. In that case, you need to uninstall and download again.
What if it doesn’t work?
If you can’t force a reboot, connect the phone with the original charger, leave it charged for 30 minutes and try again. This eliminates potential battery-related issues. If mobile still doesn’t work, make a backup copy and restore your phone at the factory. Please note that the stored data will be lost.
If none of these methods work, it’s very likely that the mobile failure is in hardware, not software. The most appropriate thing at this point is to contact the manufacturer and have your phone repaired.
