How to schedule automatic restart on Samsung Galaxy phones

And it is that, surely, you have noticed on more than one occasion that when you turn it off and turn it on again it has gained several points in terms of its performance. Well, today we will see how we can do this on a Samsung mobile device , but without having to do them ourselves, that is, we will get the Korean firm’s own terminal to do it by itself without us having to be aware of perform the reboot.

Improve your performance

The reasons why restarting the mobile phone always becomes a good move for it and for us there are several, mainly because it is directly related to various aspects of the mobile phone, affecting not only the power that any smartphone can offer us It also goes through components like the battery.

Therefore, we are facing a simple technique that we can carry out at any time and that will only take a few seconds with which it is achieved, in a way, to return the smartphone to an improved state after having had to endure demands. This is because during the use we make of the phone, not only the cache memory of the apps accumulates, but also the system. Also, the temporary memory is not removed other than with a reboot.

This is why we will be allowing the software a break, deleting files that have been stored and that are worthless, since they only cause the smartphone to slow down. To achieve this in a more effective way, we will show you how to program an automatic restart on Samsung mobiles. In this way we will make the terminal be able to work better after being turned off and on .

How to do it

Although we may come across different recommendations on the net that tell us that turning off and on the mobile once a week is the perfect time, in other cases, these tips can extend the time up to two weeks, even a month. But, really, we cannot be guided by any recommendation.

Therefore, it is important that the time to do so is set by the needs of each user. Although, the most advisable thing is to find the perfect moment, trying not to be beyond a month. In addition to the time and date must also be well thought out, so that we are not caught by surprise at some crucial moment in which we need to be continuously attentive to the mobile device. Although, luckily, with the tool that we will teach you, you will not have to worry about this.

And, in this case, we will choose to use one of the tools offered by One UI , Samsung’s software layer. All thanks to the Auto Action feature. With this feature we will be able to indicate to our phone of the Korean firm on what days and at what time exactly it will be able to restart itself. Although it is somewhat hidden from the naked eye, these will be the steps that we must follow to be able to program it to our needs:

1. Open your Samsung settings with One UI .
2. Enter the Battery and device care section.
3. Click on the three points in the upper right part of your screen.
4. Access the Automatic Action option.
5. Tap on Automatic resets at defined times as shown in the image above.
6. Flip the switch.

From here, we can set the days and hours in which we want this action to be carried out automatically. At the end of the configuration that you like the most, click on Make and that’s it. In addition, we must take these aspects into account, since it will only restart when :

• The screen is off.
• When we are not using the smartphone (so it is a good option so that we are not caught by surprise).
• The battery level exceeds 30%.
• The SIM card lock must be disabled.

In addition, there is another way to get to this same configuration, but from another section of the mobile phone settings. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Enter your Samsung settings.
2. Access the General Administration section.
3. Click on the Reset section.
4. Activate the Automatic Restart switch at defined times.
5. Finally, you must program the days and hours that best suit your needs.

Because it does not work?

There are a few users who have reported a failure with this tool as a result of updating the One UI software on their mobile devices. And, after installing the new update, the feature that allowed them to turn off and turn on the smartphone by itself has stopped working completely. Luckily, there are two possible solutions to help us fix this bug.

Clear cache partition

This method has worked for some users, although most of them have had to resort to the second way, which is the last solution that we will have at our disposal. But, first, we must try to erase the cache partition of the mobile device in the following way:

• Turn off the device.
• Press the Volume Up key and the Bixby button, then press and hold the Power key.
• When the Android logo appears, release all three keys.
• An ‘Installing system update’ message will appear for 30 to 60 seconds before the Android system recovery menu options appear.
• Press the Volume Down key several times to get to wipe cache partition and press the power key to select this option
• When the wipe cache partition is complete, it will be time to press and hold the power key to reboot the device .

Reset the mobile

Before carrying out this action, it must be clear to us that we will delete each and every one of the documents that we have stored on the Samsung Galaxy phone. Therefore, we recommend that you make a backup copy of all the files before proceeding to reset the smartphone . Then, you must follow these steps:

1. Go into settings.
2. Access General Administration.
3. Select Reset> Reset to Default.
4. Scroll down and hit Reset> Delete All.
