Resetting your smartphone

You may have to perform a reset if your smartphone fails to respond when
buttons are pressed or the screen is tapped.
Pressing the Reset button interrupts power and restarts the smartphone; it will
not erase personal information, but you may lose information from open
applications. The Reset button is found under your smartphone's battery cover,
next to the SIM slot.
Note: Before performing a reset, ensure that your smartphone is not locked. Press any
key or tap the screen to see if the phone responds.
