Samsung Galaxy keeps restarting - clear cache
In many cases, the problem is in the cache partition of your Samsung smartphone. If the partition is too full, it can cause problems. To fix this, you must first turn off your device and put it into recovery mode.
- To do this, press the power button, the volume up button and the home button at the same time. Release the power button as soon as your smartphone vibrates. You should keep the other buttons pressed until you see Android System Recovery.
- To reset the cache, use the volume keys to navigate to the "wipe cache partition" entry and confirm with the power button. Then you have to confirm that again. Your data will not be lost when the cache is deleted.
Third-party apps: often cause reboots
Other apps from the Play Store can also be responsible for the fact that your smartphone no longer works properly.
- To check this, turn off the smartphone and then press the power and volume down buttons. Release the power button when your phone vibrates. You should keep the volume down button pressed until your smartphone starts up.
- The device is now in safe mode, in which third-party apps do not start automatically. If the phone works in this mode, the problem is with one of the apps you have installed.
