How to Reboot a Rumor2 Phone
The Rumor 2 by LG is designed with a slide-out, full keyboard for fast text messaging. It supports multiple features--and, as with many mobile phones--is not immune to the occasional glitch. If your Rumor 2 freezes up or malfunctions, rebooting is one means of troubleshooting the issue. A soft reset simply restarts your phone and exits any running applications--no settings are erased. You can also perform a hard reset, after which your Rumor 2 will be returned to its original factory settings, and all data will be erased.
