| Message-ID | <rr3dkjlfji4vh2t7vdq7on0avr267ck4vt@4ax.com> |
Three days ago my Samsung phone froze, and yould not respond to any input from the touch screen. In the past when such a thing has happened I've found that it can be cured by taking out the battery and rebooting. But with this particular Samsung model one cannot remove the battery without special tools. Would it have the same effect if I wait a few days for the battery to go flat, and then try to charge it and restart it? Has anyone else foudn a way to switch off and restart a phone when the touch screen doesn't respond and you can't remove the battery? -- Steve Hayes from Tshwane, South Africa Web: http://www.khanya.org.za/stevesig.htm Blog: http://khanya.wordpress.com E-mail - see web page, or parse: shayes at dunelm full stop org full stop uk

Next time, before a phone screen becomes unresponsive, turn on Developer options USB debugging so that you can interact with the phone from a PC. You don't need the screen to respond if you had USB debugging turned on. The PC can do anything you want to the phone over the USB cable then.

Which is something very dangerous, if any random PC can take control of a phone. -- Cheers, Carlos.

Mr. Google says to try these:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ QUOTE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Samsung phone frozen - how to soft reset or hard reboot
If your device is frozen and unresponsive, press and hold the
Power button and the Volume down button down simultaneously for
more than 7 seconds to restart it. When your phone resets, you
will feel it vibrate.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ QUOTE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2. <https://www.asurion.com/connect/tech-tips/samsung-galaxy-touch-screen-not-working/>
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ QUOTE ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Restart your Samsung Galaxy
It almost sounds too simple, but restarting your Samsung Galaxy
can sometimes fix your touch screen by clearing out what's
causing the issue. Here's how to do it:
1. With your phone on, press and hold the Power button and
Volume Down button for 10+ seconds. On Samsung phones
without a dedicated Power key, press and hold the Volume
Down key and Side key for 10+ seconds.
2. Hold until the Samsung Galaxy logo appears.

That does not exist anywhere. As soon as the reboot starts you can release the buttons. -- "Gutta cavat lapidem." (Ovid)

You should be able to turn it off by putting it in a trash compactor. Not sure how to turn it back on, however. Still working on that.

Still working on that. Check the manual for your phone, or do an online search. In my experience you can force a reboot or reset using the physical power button and one of the volume buttons on the phone. They are usually on the side edge of the phone. With my motorola phone, I can get to this screen by holding the power and down volume buttons at the same time and keep pressing them until the reboot/reset screen appears.

Being a purposefully helpful and rather detailed person, as a public service, I wrote this, which may help the OP with an unresponsive Samsung. *How to un-freeze an unresponsive Samsung Galaxy A32 5G with reboot, reset, factory reset, odin mode, download mode, android recovery mode & debug mode* <https://xdaforums.com/t/how-to-un-freeze-an-unresponsive-samsung-galaxy-a32-5g-with-reboot-reset-factory-reset-odin-mode-download-mode-android-recovery-mode-debug-mode.4526629/> See also this, which I wrote to help people like the OP with their phone. *What is the best XDA solution to control Android on the PC & recover data over Wi-Fi when the user suddenly has an unresponsive broken screen?* <https://xdaforums.com/t/what-is-the-best-xda-solution-to-control-android-on-the-pc-recover-data-over-wi-fi-when-the-user-suddenly-has-an-unresponsive-broken-screen.4455331/> Good luck to the OP. Please let us know how it works so we all learn from each other.
