So yesterday my s5 froze while I was using it. I was simultaneously using whatsapp and viber. The screen went unresponsive, (but no black screen). I waited for 2-3 minutes but it stayed frozen at that point. I use nova launcher.
Long pressed power key, no response. Finally had to do a battery pull to reboot.
Two questions.
1. Has anyone experienced such freezes while using the phone? Should I be worried ? This is the first freeze I saw on this phone, and I have been using the phone for about 2 weeks now.
2. Is there any hard key combination I can use to recover the phone ? I am coming from the Lumia 920 which had such a key combo. Removing the phone out of my Spigen Tough armor is an annoyance, albeit a minor one.
