If you’ve got a frozen iPhone 7 plus that doesn’t want to turn off, it might be time for a restart. Luckily, there are several ways to reset your device.

First, try to force a power off by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button for about five seconds. If that doesn’t work, you can also use iTunes to restore the operating system.

Force Restart

A force restart on an iPhone 7 plus is a great way to fix certain issues that arise with your device. It can clear caches, kill freezing apps and even help you get rid of unexpected glitches that may be causing your phone to act up in ways you didn’t expect.

While force restarts are effective, they can also cause a lot of trouble if your iPhone doesn’t work as it should. This is why it’s important to know how to perform a force restart correctly.

There are different ways to perform a restart on an iPhone, but the most common is to press and hold down the power button. The button will typically be located on the right-side of your phone. Once this button is pressed, a slider that says “Slide to power off” should appear on the screen.

Another way to restart your iPhone is to press and hold down the sleep/wake button and the home button at the same time. Then, you can release the buttons when the Apple logo appears on your screen. This method works on all devices, including iPhones with Touch ID and older models without.

Reset All Settings

There are times when you need to turn off your iPhone 7 plus and reset all settings. This process will help you get rid of some errors that have been plaguing your device. It also helps you remove any extras from your device such as apps, passwords, and other locations that have been added to the device as you use it.

When you do this, it brings all the setting to their factory defaults. This includes network settings, keyboard dictionary, location settings, and privacy settings, among other things. It will also wipe out Apple Cards that have been added to the device.

However, this does not remove your saved data or media files. So it is important to backup your data and media files first before resetting all the settings on your device.

One of the best ways to do this is by using Tenorshare iCareFone. It is a powerful tool that allows you to backup all of your data and content in case you ever need to restore the device.

DFU Restore

DFU mode is a special version of recovery mode that skips the iBoot bootloader and can be used to downgrade firmware, if needed. However, DFU mode is not always recommended, as it can wipe data from your device, including photos and videos, apps, and messages.

To put your iPhone 7 plus into DFU mode, connect it to your computer via USB. Then, hold down the Power (on/off) and Volume Down buttons simultaneously until a black screen appears on your phone.

Once the screen goes black, release the Power button but keep holding down the Volume Down button for at least five seconds. This will make your iPhone appear in Finder or iTunes as a device that is in DFU mode.

You can use a timer to help you keep track of when to release the Power and Volume Down buttons. When the screen has gone dark, release both the Power and Volume Down buttons and continue holding down the Side button for ten seconds, until you see iTunes or Finder say “iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode.”

Using DFU Mode is a good way to fix certain issues on your device. It can also be used to get rid of any bugs and other unwanted software that might be running in the background.

DFU mode works on all iOS devices, so you can try it if your iPhone is having problems. It’s not recommended for devices that are damaged in any way, such as water damage, because it could ruin your device.

Repair

The iPhone 7 plus is a great phone that offers many features. It has a high resolution display, a powerful processor, and stereo speakers that deliver a great sound experience. However, like any other Apple product, it can experience some problems from time to time.

If your iPhone isn’t turning on or responding correctly, it may be time for a repair. CPR Cell Phone Repair offers a convenient and hassle-free repair service that will keep your device running properly and in good condition. We also offer certified pre-owned devices to meet all of your needs and budget.

One of the most common iPhone 7 problems is a hissing sound coming from the back of your device when the phone is running a demanding app or game. This is caused by a problem with the processor or network connection, and can be fixed by resetting your device or contacting a technician.

Another common issue is rapid battery drain, which can occur if your iPhone isn’t updated to the latest iOS version. These updates will usually increase your battery life by reducing or eliminating some power-hungry functions, such as Mail fetch, Siri, Background app refresh, and automatic downloads.

But if your battery is going down too fast, you might need to force restart your iPhone to fix the problem. This can be done by pressing the Home button and holding it for a few seconds until you see the Apple logo appear.
