phone.
1 Try shutting down the phone: Press and hold the
Tap Power > Shut Down/Swap Battery
2 Whether step 1 succeeded or not, take out the battery, wait ten
seconds, and then reinsert it. This causes your phone to restart.
For detailed instructions on taking out the battery, see

Why this might help
When you disconnect the battery, your phone's internal circuitry is
