JiLi333 Force Restart iPhone and Android, Step by Step

Force restart iPhone is the move for a screen that ignores every tap while the JiLi333 lobby sits frozen in front of you. Apple’s own page gives it as four button presses, and Google gives an Android version that is a single long hold.

You reached this page from the JiLi333 mobile pillar, which covers what on a phone decides whether a session goes smoothly. A frozen screen is the loudest of those problems, and the fix takes under a minute once you know the order.

Force restart iPhone at a glance

Before you start

A force restart closes everything on the phone, so the lobby tab goes with it. Run through this short list first.

1. Wait a moment. If the screen is still drawing a spin or a loading wheel, give it a few seconds before you decide it is frozen.
2. Try an ordinary restart if the screen responds at all. On an iPhone with Face ID, Apple says to press and hold the side button and either volume button until the sliders appear, then drag the Power Off slider.
3. Keep the phone in your hand with the volume and side buttons free to press.
4. Do not open the lobby again until the restart finishes.

Apple adds that if turning the phone off and on does not fix the issue, you try forcing it to restart. That is the step this page covers.

Step by step

The four steps below are Apple’s, in Apple’s order.

1. Press and quickly release the volume up button.
2. Press and quickly release the volume down button.
3. Press and hold the side button.
4. When the Apple logo appears, release the side button.

The two volume presses are quick taps, one after the other. Only the side button is held, and you keep holding it until the Apple logo shows.

iPhone frozen: what to expect next

Once you release the side button the iPhone starts as if it had been switched off. You will see the lock screen and, after your passcode, the home screen. The lobby page was closed with everything else, so you open your browser and reach it again yourself.

If the phone restarts but is still behaving oddly, the Safari and Chrome comparison shows how to clear a browser’s site data on an iPhone. If a long session left the battery low before the freeze, the battery life steps cover the settings that slow the drain.

Force restart Android

Google’s page for a frozen Android phone gives one instruction for a screen that is stuck on: hold down the power button for about 60 seconds to restart. The same page says some of its steps work only on Android 8.0 and up, and that settings can vary by phone.

1. Hold down the power button.
2. Keep holding for about 60 seconds, until the phone restarts.
3. Let it finish starting and enter your passcode.
4. Open your browser and the lobby again.

If the problem comes back, Google lists these checks, in order: Android updates (Settings, System, Software update), storage, which it says can cause trouble when less than 10 percent is free, and app updates in the Google Play Store app. Force stopping apps you are not using is also on Google’s list.

What happens to the round that was running

The lobby is a page in your browser, and a force restart closes that page. What the game did with an unfinished round is decided on the game’s side, not by the phone, and nothing on this page can tell you which way it went.

1. Reopen the lobby and log in.
2. Open the game you were playing.
3. Look at the game’s own history or info screen and read how the last round is recorded.
4. If the screen does not match what you remember, take a screenshot before you play on.

A weak connection can look exactly like a freeze, so if the phone itself responds but the lobby does not, read the no signal steps before you reach for the buttons.

Common errors

Still frozen?

1. Charge the phone, then run the steps once more without rushing.
2. For an iPhone, read Apple’s article for a phone that is frozen or will not turn on.
3. For Android, contact your manufacturer or carrier, as Google’s page advises.
4. Keep the phone away from the lobby until it behaves normally.
