Solved: s3 has frozen

Anonymous · ‎31-07-2015

my s3 has frozen on samsung screen. I cant turn it off or charge it. I have pressed the up volume, power and home key. The android man appears then falls over with a hazard sign (triangle with ! in it). It then gives me options clear cache, factory setting etc but has alot of writing saying files not available. I have tried to attach to kies but will not allow connection of phone Any ideas please.

Try clearing cache first. Next step would be a factory reset and hopefully you have done a recent back up.
