1 of 1 people found this helpfulIf you have done a long press restart and that continues while you may lose what's on it, as a last resort you can use Samsung Smart Switch from a PC and there is a feature to "emergency" restore the device.

Hi, I tried to reply that this was helpful, but apparently it didn't register. I'm getting e-mails telling me to respond. So here's the deal. I Googled Samsung Smart Switch on my PC (my phone wouldn't shut down and long press restart did nothing...) and I searched all over, but I guess I'm too dumb because I couldn't figure out where to actually find the emergency feature... So I gave up, and went to bed, figuring the phone would die. It did. In the morning, I plugged in my charger and it popped up right away, as if nothing had been wrong! The phone is now good as new. Thanks....
