Troubleshooting Guide: Unfreezing Your iPhone Series

If you own an iPhone from the 7 series, 8 series, X series, 11, 12, 13, 14, or 15, you may have experienced a situation where your device becomes unresponsive or refuses to turn on. This can be frustrating and inconvenient, especially if you rely on your phone for work, communication, or entertainment. Fortunately, there are some simple steps you can try before seeking professional help from Pocket-Friendly Device Doctors. In this blog post, we will show you how to unfreeze your iPhone in minutes.

Step 1: Remove the Case and Connect to Power

The first thing you should do is remove the case from your iPhone and connect it to a power source. Sometimes, a low or drained battery can cause your device to freeze or shut down. By plugging it in, you can ensure that your iPhone has enough power to operate normally. You can use the original charger that came with your device, or a compatible one that supports fast charging. If you see a low battery icon or a charging indicator on the screen, wait for a few minutes until your iPhone has enough power to turn on.

Step 2: Quick Button Sequence

The next step is to perform a quick button sequence that will force your iPhone to restart. This is different from the normal way of turning your device on or off, which may not work if your iPhone is frozen. The button sequence varies depending on the model of your iPhone, but it generally involves pressing and releasing the volume buttons and then holding the power button. Here are the exact steps for each iPhone series:

  • For iPhone 7 and 7 Plus: Press and hold the Volume Down button and the Power button at the same time until you see the Apple logo on the screen.

  • For iPhone 8, 8 Plus, X, XS, XS Max, XR, 11, 11 Pro, 11 Pro Max, 12, 12 Mini, 12 Pro, 12 Pro Max, 13, 13 Mini, 13 Pro, 13 Pro Max, 14, 14 Mini, 14 Pro, 14 Pro Max, 15, 15 Mini, 15 Pro, and 15 Pro Max: Quickly press and release the Volume Up button, then quickly press and release the Volume Down button, then press and hold the Power button until you see the Apple logo on the screen.

Step 3: Hold the Power Button

The final step is to hold the power button until your iPhone turns on. This may take up to 20 seconds, so be patient and do not release the button until you see the Apple logo. Once your iPhone boots up, you should be able to use it normally. If you have a passcode or a Face ID, you may need to enter it to unlock your device.

Remember: Timing Is Crucial

When performing the button sequence, timing is crucial. You need to press and release the volume buttons quickly, and only hold the power button after doing so. If you press and hold the buttons too long, or in the wrong order, you may not be able to restart your iPhone. If you are unsure, you can watch this video that demonstrates the button sequence for different iPhone models.
