Nice to meet you, *****!
Did your phone fall on the ground or something?

Customer Replay

No. Just stopped responding. I can hear it receiving texts etc

  1. Do the Forced restart. Press and hold the Volume Up, Home, and Power buttons at the same time (for 8 seconds)
  2. After the phone vibrates, let go of the Power button, while still holding the other two buttons until the Android System Recovery screen appears.

Nothing happened

Okay, try this then:

  1. Plug the charger to a working outlet.
  2. Connect your phone to its using the original charging cable.
  3. Regardless of whether the phone shows the charging sign or not, leave it connected to the charger for at least 10 minutes.

I am doing that now but have tried that already

Wait some time for the phone to charge.

  1. After that and while your Galaxy A71 is still connected to its charger, press and hold the Volume Down button and the Power key for 10 seconds or more.
