If there's no removable battery, then what do I do if my phone freezes?

[gdmin]

I just tried that; that's how you take a screenshot.

LOL.

Maybe I'm not holding it down long enough. Does this only work during a freeze?

It didn't freeze now?

That would be because that's a soft reset. A hard reset would reboot the phone no matter what it's doing, as long as it has power.

Perhaps the question we should be asking is not which phones have removable batteries, but which phones have a true hardware reset.

Well not have it and dont have removable battery is a flaw

Remove the back cover, disconnect / reconnect the battery, replace the cover. Shouldn't take more than 5 minutes.

I held it for over a minute and it still doesn't turn off. It's actually frozen, not just that I can press and hold the power button (I have an Android RAZR). The only solution I can think of is to wait till my phone runs out of battery and is forced to improperly shut off

Oh, actually I looked on the internet for another 15 minutes and found that on my phone I can just hold Power button and volume down button at the same time for 10 seconds (--In case anyone with an android phone has the same problem)

You do know you're in the Google Nexus 4 forum, right?

I have a Micromax Canvas Turbo with non removable battery. It hanged and no key( including power key) was functioning. I pressed power key for around 25-30 seconds. It rebooted

its true, you do have to just hold the power button down until it turns off, could be a minute or less... then it turns back on when you turn it on. mine was frozen for like 10 minutes... i was about to throw my phone...lol... i googled and came upon this.... thanks to everyone who said to just hold the power button. i tryed it a few times but i didnt hold it long enough until the last time.

It works on my Galaxy A3 (non-removable battery). Thanks.

holding down the battery, even if the choice to shut it down doesn't appear continue holding it down the screen will go black and then its all good!

[Michael Drew]

Just let the phone run out of battery. When it does charge it and turn it on. That should fix it.

Hold the power button for 10-60 seconds (depends on the phone) hope this helps
