Restarting and resetting

responding or won't restart normally. No settings or personal data get deleted.

some of your personal data, such as music and pictures. This action is sometimes
necessary if your device stops functioning properly, but note that if you want to keep
any important data, you have to first back up this data to a memory card or other
non-internal memory. For more information, see
