There’s no doubt that the Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 and Redmi Note 5 Pro are among the best in their class, if not the best.
Despite rocking such powerful specs, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 and Note 5 Pro are still vulnerable to the usual hanging of any Android phone. Yes, you read that right. Even the flagship handsets that are powered by high-end Snapdragon 800 series chipsets do hang at times due to various reasons, maybe a bad app or system bugs — and the budget Redmi Note 5 series is not an exception at all.
Before most OEMs started making the non-removable battery feature a thing, you only needed to remove the battery from the phone whenever it stopped responding or started hanging and problem solved! But like many other phones today, the Redmi Note 5 and Redmi Note 5 Pro have non-removable battery units.
So, what should you do if your Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 or Redmi Note 5 Plus hangs up on you or stops responding to any commands?
Well, if you happen to own a Redmi Note 5 Pro that is not responding to any touch commands or even any typical button presses, it means turning off the phone in the usual way won’t even be possible. On the brighter side, like any other phone, you can force restart the Redmi Note 5 or Redmi Note 5 Plus.
How to force restart Redmi Note 5 and Note 5 Pro
- Press and hold the Power button for more than 7 seconds.
- Release the button when the phone vibrates and reboots itself.
That’s it!
