Don't be ridiculous. A bank customer help desk, for example, has to answer questions from clients on any type of phone. The bank has no say on what type of phone the clients come with. If they try, clients will go elsewhere with their good money. -- Cheers, Carlos.

Others already posted the volume-down+power buttons method to force a reboot. As to the freeze/hang/crash/<whatever>: If that keeps reoccuring, check in the Play Store app if Facebook has been recently updated, i.e. in the last few days or so. If so, and if you (like me) don't need/use Facebook, then uninstall it. You probably can not completely uninstall it, but you can uninstall updates (three-dot icon in the App info screen) and Disable it. You may also have to do the same for some Meta related apps, but start with Facebook. Come back to me (here) if your problem indeed seems Facebook related, but it has not been completely resolved, i.e. the phone still crashes or/and reboots.

I haven't had this problem, but a couple times I couldn't hang up the phone. I wanted to make another call and tapping the icon did nothing. Finally noticed on another screen that it still said "Hanging up" 8 minutes after I thought I hung up. Turning off the phone solved it. I was almost the last to leave a funeral, still in the cemetery, when the phone vibrated. I ignored it expecting it to go to voicemail, as it should have, but it didn't. Finally I answered and no one was there. So I hung up, or at least I tried to. >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?
