How to reboot android without a button

Method 1: Dedicated reset button

On some devices (in particular, Sony 2015-2016 smartphones) there is a dedicated reset button. It is possible to use it as follows:

1. Look a hole on the device housing, next to which "Reset" should be. If there is no one, but at the same time the rear cover is removable, gently decline it and look for the desired item there - usually it is located next to the battery compartment.
2. Take a thin subject (stationery clip, key to open a SIM tray or sewing needle) and carefully press the button recessed into the hole.
3. A telephone reboot should occur.

This method cannot be called universal, but it is the most convenient and effective of all presented.

Method 2: third-party

If the target phone is either the tablet does not depend on and works, the best method will be involved in one of the third-party programs for rebooting, which can be installed from Google Play Market.

Power button reassignment

For devices with a non-working lock button, you can set a program that will allow you to "hang" the functions of this item to any other - for example, the volume control. To this end, the application under the name "Power Button to Volume Button" will cope.
