OnePlus 8 5G UW - Restart Device

Here's how to restart your OnePlus 8 5G UW if it crashes and resets, freezes or runs slowly.
Restarting your OnePlus 8 5G UW can help if you experience continuous resetting / rebooting, crashing, freezing or if the touchscreen is unresponsive.
  • Since this device has a non-removable battery, the restart (soft reset) process can be used to simulate a 'battery pull' when the device is unresponsive, frozen or doesn't power on.
  • In rare cases a restart could affect data (e.g. backup in progress, cached data, etc.).

Preferred Method

  1. Press and hold the
    Power button
     (right edge) and
    Volume up button
     (left edge) until the 'Power off'' prompt appears then release.
    If the device is unresponsive, attempt the alternate method.
    Power off menu
  2. Tap
    Restart
    .
    Allow up to 30 seconds for the reset to complete.
    If your device won't power back on, partially charge the device then retry.

Alternate Method

  1. Simultaneously press and hold the
    Power button
     (right-edge) and the
    Volume up button
     (left-side) until the screen goes dark then release both buttons.
    Press and hold Power button and Volume button
  2. Allow up to 15 seconds for the Boot Mode screen to appear.
    If your device won't power back on, partially charge the device then retry.
