Resolution
- Force reboot your phone as this may address mysterious issues that occur
- If your phone freezes again:
- You may see issues if your phone's internal storage is almost full. To free up space, remove unnecessary files by clearing your cache
- A third party app could be causing your issues, which can be tested by rebooting your phone while in Safe Mode
- If you can't unfreeze the phone, follow the steps in How to Factory Reset a Cell Phone
- A factory reset will reset your cell phone to a cleared state - apps, internal memory, contacts, photos/videos, or other personal info will not be backed up or synchronized automatically. Any firmware updates you have installed will still be on your cell phone.
- If none of the above steps solves the issue, Republic Wireless will honor the manufacturer's one-year limited warranty for phones purchased directly from Republic Wireless per our Return and Replacement Policy
