How to Restart Frozen Galaxy Note 9
During the installation process, you probably saw and skipped some tips and tricks from Samsung. One of them explains how to perform a “hard reset”. This will force the phone to restart in any case. And no, this does not delete any data or information. It is perfectly safe to do this.
Press and hold the power and volume down buttons at the same time for 7 seconds or until the phone vibrates and turns off. You will see it turn off, you will feel the phone vibrate, then it will restart and turn on again and it will work perfectly.
This works even if the phone is completely unresponsive or the screen is black. Hard reset works anytime, anywhere.
