While troubleshooting some software problems, it is mandatory to restart the Android phone into safe mode. For example, you can use safe mode to remove third-party apps from the app manager.
We have been sorting out our problems with computers since Windows 98 and XP. In this post, I will guide you through restarting your Android phone into safe mode. The best approach to troubleshooting a problem with your Android phone is to remove third-party apps one by one and then monitor their performance.
Note: If your phone restarts automatically into safe mode, there is some problem with your phone. A recently installed app might be causing that problem. The best option to tackle this problem is to uninstall any recently installed app that might be causing this malfunction.
How to Restart Android Phone in Safe Mode
Before moving forward, note that you won’t be able to open the apps and other stuff. Instead, there will be a constant notice on the left corner of your phone screen. Safe mode is the best way to figure out if the problem of your Android phone is due to some app installed or it’s a problem in your operating system,, or you may call it ROM.
Remember that Safe mode is for all apps. You can’t just troubleshoot by disabling just one app. If you are in safe mode, every third-party app installed on your Android phone will be disabled.
Now let us move on to how you can enter into Safe mode on your Smartphone:
- First of all, Press and hold the power button of your Android phone.
- When you are asked to turn off your phone, tap and hold the power button.
- Like in the following picture, your phone will prompt you to enter safe mode.
- Tap on OK.
Your Android phone will restart into Safe mode.
If you want to get out of safe mode, just turn your Android phone off. You will be out of safe mode when you turn it on again. If you have a problem getting out of safe mode, as reported in some Sony devices. Hold the power button and volume down button till the phone restarts. When you turn on the phone again, it will be out of Safe mode if you’re still unable to. Take out the Android phone battery and sim for 20 seconds, then put the sim and battery and turn your phone on.
