Hard Reboot is a special smartphone restart mode for serious failures. It is often used to get rid of hang-ups, especially when the device does not respond to taps. This concept should not be confused with resetting the phone to factory settings because all the data remains in place in the first case. On the Xiaomi smartphone hard reset is performed as follows:
- Hold down the power button for 20-30 seconds.
- After the Mi logo appears on the screen, release the key.
- Wait for the system to boot up. If nothing happens, then repeatedly press the power button.
This restart will automatically close the applications running on the phone, so the information entered may not be saved. The effectiveness of such a restart is quite high – many failures disappear immediately.
