    You can't remove the Galaxy S7 battery, so if your device freezes and you can't turn your phone off and on, you'll want to force a hard reboot using the following simple method:
    • Hold down the power button
    • Hold down the volume down button
    • Keep them held down for 7+ seconds

    This should force your device to reboot.
