How to Hard Restart an Android Phone

Inleiding

A hard restart is a process of restarting a device, such as a smartphone, tablet, or computer, by manually shutting it off and turning it back on again. It is also known as a "force restart" or "hard reset."

A hard restart is different from a soft restart, which is a normal restart of the device that can be performed by selecting the "Restart" option from the device's settings menu. A hard restart is usually done when the device is not responding or has frozen, and it can help resolve some software issues. However, it is important to note that a hard restart may cause the device to lose any unsaved data or settings.
