Hi Vicigers! If your iPhone is stuck, can't be touched, or is unresponsive, you can force restart your iPhone to turn it back on. Maybe most of you already know this, but for those of you who have just migrated from Android users to iOS, of course this information is very useful.
When your iPhone screen is black or stuck and doesn't respond to anything you do either on the screen or on the home, volume, or power buttons. Maybe you won't be able to restart your iPhone in the normal way, like holding down the power button for a few seconds like the general way you usually do.
If your iPhone really doesn't respond and doesn't want to restart in the normal way, force restart is the solution to revive your iPhone, with the hope that your iPhone will function normally after being force restarted. However, fear not, a force restart will not delete anything on your iPhone, as the photos you just took will be safe in the internal storage.
We will discuss how to force restart an iPhone from the 6s series to the iPhone 12 series and all the series in between. Why do we start from the 6s series and not below it? Because at the beginning of 2021, the iPhone 6 series and below are no longer suitable for use as daily drivers. So, here's how to revive a stuck iPhone with a force restart.
-
Force Restart iPhone 6s & iPhone SE (1st Gen)
Press and hold the power button and home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo on the screen, then release.
-
Force Restart iPhone 7 & 7 Plus
Press and hold the power button on the right side of the phone, while you do that, press and hold volume down as well. Then wait a few moments until you see the Apple logo appear on the screen. Voila, restart was successful.
-
Force Restart iPhone 8, X, SE (2nd Gen), XR, XR, 11, and 12 Series
Press and quickly release the volume up button, press and quickly release the volume down button, then finally press and hold the power button on the side until you see the Apple logo on the screen appear. Then release the power button and please wait until your iPhone turns on properly again.
If the methods above are not able to solve your problem. The last way is to reinstall iOS.
Reinstall iOS For Desperate Steps
Who tries doesn't give up if the iPhone is lagging/buging, unresponsive, and even stuck and can't be operated at all. The last desperate step you have to take is to reinstall iOS.
To do this, we will briefly explain how. First, connect your iPhone to the computer and launch iTunes. Next, force restart your iPhone but don't release the buttons when the Apple logo appears. But do the opposite, that is, keep holding it until you see recovery mode on your iPhone screen (the screen with the iTunes logo and the Lightning connector).
When you see recovery mode on the iPhone screen, you will see a window in iTunes on your computer, to continue the process you are currently doing which contains information to restore or update your iPhone. Click update and iTunes will reinstall iOS without erasing your settings, apps and data.
If the update doesn't work, then you should select restore, which means you'll wipe all data and reinstall iOS. Then the system will ask you to restore the backup on iTunes or iCloud which hopefully you had time to make.
Why can it happen like this? If your iPhone is stuck, frozen, or can't be used at all because of a normal crash, that's a common thing to happen, but there are also many causes for this. It can happen because of a bug, or because you installed a 3rd party app not from the app store, or because your iPhone has been jailbroken. The key is, all you have to do is restart or force restart your iPhone, and voila everything returns to normal. However, if restarting is not the solution, like it or not, you have to reinstall your iOS so that you can return to using your iPhone properly.
