This method isn’t exclusive to Nokia devices running Android Oreo, but can virtually be applied to any (Android) phone, though the button combination could be different. To do a soft-reset, that is also the best way to un-freeze a device, hold the Power + Volume Up button until the phone vibrates or the Android logo appears. On the lower end we have a simple soft-reset, that you can view as a re-boot that fixes most of the issues, but doesn’t delete data, while on the other side we have the hard reset or the final solution that erases data and returns the device to factory settings. There is, we can call it, a scale of problems that require different actions to be fixed. Smartphones aren’t perfect, and often we do encounter problems on our devices that we want to fix in the simplest way possible.
