How to turn on safe mode on "Android"? detailed instructions

Surely, all the experienced users working on the operating system "Windows" know that to troubleshoot and solve some problems provides a safe operating mode of the OS. But not everyone knows that mobile gadgets can also be downloaded in a similar design shell.

Let's try to figure out how to turn on the phone in safe mode ("Android"), and what steps you need to perform for this. We will consider ordinary devices - tablets and smartphones working on the official (stock) firmware. If you upgraded the gadget to an amateur (custom) firmware, the following actions may not respond correctly, or not work at all.

Why do we need this mode?

Before you enable the safe mode on "Android", let's determine why it might be needed on this platform. As you know, the operating system "Android" has its own, so to speak, democratic, while the other shells try to protect their "inner world" as much as possible from the possible mistakes of a newcomer-operator. That is, the user has access to virtually all software corners of the gadget. With the help of third-party software you can easily change not only the appearance of the operating system, but also its behavior, and beyond recognition. And as it often happens, for such a beauty you have to pay.

If, after all your interventions, the platform began to slow down, frisk, and generally ceased to function normally, then you start to wonder: "And how to enable the safe mode on" Android "to eliminate these lags?"

The fact that this mode can be called "clean", that is, when you start it connect only the main system services, where you can trace the history of installed applications and make some corrections, and then reboot into normal working condition.

So, how to turn on safe mode on "Android"? In total, there are two main ways to get into the "clean" system.

The first way

You need to press and hold the gadget on button until the reboot pop-up menu appears. Then you need to press and hold your finger on the "Disconnect device". After 5-10 seconds, a dialog box should appear that will warn you about the transition to the safe mode of operation after clicking on the "OK" button. Some versions of "Android" (as a rule, on tablets and phabetts) can be rebooted immediately without any additional windows. Keep this in mind before turning on the safe mode on the Android tablet.

After clicking on the "OK" button, your gadget should reboot and start only on the main system services. And the process can take some time, a little more than with normal boot.

The second way

Turn off your mobile gadget completely, as you normally do. Wait a few seconds and then press and hold the power button. After the brand of your phone or brand appears on the screen, hold the volume rocker in the "+" (increase) position.

After that, the icon will appear on the display "Safe Mode" (Safe Mode), and the device will start downloading the platform on the main system files. In some OS versions, you do not need to hold the power button, just wait for the logo to appear on the screen and hold the volume rocker. Also, keep this in mind before you turn on the safe mode for Android.

How to disable Safe mode?

Typically, this mode is disabled after the gadget is rebooted, and there is no need to perform any additional steps. If the phone continues to run in safe mode, then the platform does not want to work correctly with installed third-party applications or the system is completely damaged.

The only way out in this case is to reset all settings to the factory settings ("Settings" -> "Reset system"). Separately it is worth noting that all information will be deleted, so you must worry beforehand about transferring the phone book and other important data.
