Normally if my phone stops responding, I take the battery out and back in to restart.
How do I do a hard restart with this phone?

Press power on and volum down button, wait 10s and you'll see a flash. Then, you've made a hard restart
Thanks for the info. My launcher got stuck and i couldnt do anything but take pictures.

Good evening,
my phone was on, I got an error trying to activate the wifi so I switch off the phone.
When I turn it on, first it show the "Lg system checking" screen, then it start the booting sequence repeating "lg" and "lg + progress bar" endless.
Same thing happened two weeks ago, and I had to hard-reset to get it switch on again.
Is there a way to recover from this situation avoiding another hard reset?
This behaviour is supposed to be normal?
Thank you for your help,
MJ
I got the same problem, I really don't know what the problem is, I thought I was the only one with this problem.

I had it several times
Last time however I somehow managed to get it going again so its not allways impossible.
Try to let it charge for some time first. Then take the battery out and wait a while. Reinsert and let it restart. It will probaby hang again. I did this several times with combinations of holding in button combinations while booting (but not power plus vol down!). I also did combinations of having the charger connected or not.
I needed maybe 20 tries before it booted up.
Good luck!

LOL try to throw it out the window
I just attempted to root my Galaxy Note using the instructions found on the development forum and I thought everything went well. Now, however, once the phone starts it wont turn on again - if I press the power button the screen back light comes on but thats it. I have to remove the battery to restart it, but then the same thing happens again. Any idea how to fix this?
Will it go into download mode if so flash a stock rom with odin

Power off your phone - take out your battery if necessary and wait about a minute, then put it back in.
Press volume up + home + power and hold, see if you can get into Recovery.
If you can, wipe cache, dalvik and do a factory reset.
Try to reboot.

I did all that and everything went through, same problem though after reboot - once the screen turns off, hitting the power button only makes the back light go on and the screen itself doesnt seem to turn on. The phone seems to function "as normal" - it even reboots fine - until I have to turn the screen on using the power button after initially booting it up.

If that's still the case, I'd try to boot into download mode and flash a stock rom (as was suggested above).
Hi, I am using a galaxy Note in India and it is about 14 months old. I was working on internet and it freezes in between, so this time it wont even turn off or give any option when I pressed power button so I took the battery off after about waiting for 10 min. Then I turned it back ON It gave me error Encryption Failed Reset your phone.
I again tried to restart the phone, Still the same error. I again tried to restart and this time it wont even start Nothing happen just a dead screen.
1. Battery charge is full
2. it wont turn on and when pressing vdown + middle button + power button nothing happens just black screen always.
3. Taken the battery off number of times and then also tried, No Luck.
4 Even the computer wont even recognize it.
Its just a Dead Screen no movement in screen tried all possible step No luck , it all happened suddenly.
Its just the same as it came from company (No Root not even opened its just like new phone.)
Not able to understand what can be the issue, Please help..!!!!
Thanks

How are you sure that the battery is good and charged. Normally after one year if the usage is heavy, the chances of battery down happens. So make sure battery is good. Secondly you mentioned volume down button, how about vol up button ie recovery mode?

This happened to me as well last week. Tried everything but failed.
I did below steps and my phone is up & working
1) Remove the battery and keep it in a dry place for 4-6 hours (Very important step to make this work)
2) Place the battery back into computer and do not turn ON the phone
3) Plug the phone to wall charger and charge the phone for at least an Hour (I kept for 2 Hrs)
4) Remove the charger and gently press the power button for 15 secs
5) This should turn the phone back ON
Above steps helped for me. Let me know if this worked for you also :angel:

Ankush,
In your case I can think of only 2 things
1) If you have CWM installed then
press and hold "Volume UP Key + Power Key + Home Key" all together for 30 secs (may be a min) and see if you get recovery screen
If yes then all is ok & you just need to flash a new ROM
2) If you do not have CWM then
press and hold "Volume Down Key + Power Key + Home Key" all together for 30 secs (may be a min) and see if you get a custom screen
If yes then you can install custom ROM (or original ROM) using ODIN.
Let me know if anything helps you here

Israr

This step kinda weird.. Since I my note never get wet. I hope it will work.. I tried it later.. I dont have much budget to upgadet to Note 3 now. :crying:
Same kind of error
Over the night my phone closed. When I try to open it, on the screen apeared "Insert PIN to decrypt your ~something~ ". I never encrypted my phone so I tried to restart. I got stuck on the samsung logo. Then I removed the battery and put it back in and my device never started again. I have 2 batteries and none of them worked. I can charge the batteries independently and this is not the issue.

Have the same problem right now.. did you find a solution eventually?
Same happened to my device today. Had trouble with some apps before. Wanted to play back a two days old backup. But my phone never woke up again. Shut down forever. Never got to recovery. Had the latest cm11 nightly. Now its dead! RIP. My dear friend. We've gone a long way together. Never intended to replace you anytime soon. But I can't be without a Phone. Moving on to Galaxy S5 now. Hope it can fill the gapp.
Same here, completely dead after a reboot. I took it apart but I see no damage or signs of burn damage anywhere on the motherboard or other components. Is there anything I can do to troubleshoot and find out specifically what happened?
i am not sure, mayb the phone is design to last for only certain years, new apps launch make the phone in applicable for be running with latest apps and everything. Or mayb the phone is design with a timer to self destroy its chip or component after specific numbers of days being used??
My phone started to act really strange today. When i press power/lock button it wont lock it turns off phone immediately. Sometime it just gives powers screen (wher you can turn off,restart or go in airplane mode). Butt its really strange. I can turn off my phone only if i unplug battery.
So the problem is that when i press power/lock button it will restart or wont happend anything.
Im long on this ROM and its not problem with it. I tryed go on stock ROM and same thing happends.
Anyone have some suggestion ?

Try 2 hold 8 seconds on power button, if this phone will reboot - it's software problem. Just flash a new firmware LT6 for ur phone.
If it does not work, try 2 disassemble ur phone, and watch area nearly power button. If it's damaged go 2 service.
My opinion plastic nearly power button area is damaged, or this is firmware trouble in UI.
Nothing happend after 8 sec's

Who problem power button can't lock Can't root ....
You just chang your hard drive
Note: it work on gt-n7000 company. If you chang it incorrect your phone can't power on or reboot.
Had a error saying that power monitor? (default app I assume, not downloaded) had stopped, dismissed the popup but it kept returning, i.e. couldn't do anything so held power button to force power off.
Nothing happens, have the power off, restart option window on screen but phone is locked up, no response.
Any method to restart or am I left waiting for the battery to run out?
Tried usb power connect/disconnect and removed sim tray but nothing.
Try this, http://www.hardreset.info/devices/nokia/nokia-8/
But you will loose data from your device

Thanks for reply. It won't power off, that is the problem, just frozen on the power menu, long pressing the power button does nothing.

Well bleeding hell! so they use two button combo for hard off rather than just the power button alone.
Time to cancell the return and the re-buy from elsewhere then... d'oh!
Cheers matey, very much appreciated.
