Hey buddy. When your Sony Xperia SP hangs, just remove the sim card. It will restart automatically.

Open the back cover.

There is a slot with Off written on it.

Put a pen in that slot and press till the screen is off.

It will restart the phone

I will never remove SIM card when the phone is ON.

It can be dangerous for the SIM card, i personally broke one removing with phone ON.

Push the reset button.

It's safer to do that.

Hello.

Do this by only pushing the reset button on the back of the phone after removing the backcover.

the methods provided were of great help. Had been trying to restrart my cell by holding the swith button for a long time. Then pressing the off slot after removing the cover worked. Thanks a ton!

Is it just me or does anyone else find it unacceptable that a reasonable quality smartphone from a reputable company like Sony keeps "hanging" so frequently that this thread is still running after two years? I bought my SP from the Sony Outlet store (online) in July this year and have had to reset it so frequently that it has become second nature.

That should NOT be the case. As far as I am concerned the item is not of merchantable quality.

Related to this is the frequent lag that occurs.

My Xperia got hanged up . I tried all the possible ways to restart it, but all in vain, I also tried pressing and holding different combinations of hardware buttons,but it's still not working out. Later it got drained out of battery and since then its not even rebooting.

Please help!
