Galaxy S5 freezes on boot up screen!!

[Deleted User]

So recently my my tmobile "G900T" galaxy s5 has been freezing on the boot up screen particularly at the part where it says "T-Mobile". Can someone please tell me if there's a way for me to reset the device by holding down some keys instead of removing the battery over and over, thanks.

Try wiping the cache partition as per #1.3 of S5 Lollipop Update Problems - Dummies Guide to see if that helps.

Because it goes to great lengths to outline and explain everything, step-by-step, for absolute beginners to computing and Android.
