Long-press the Home button to see

whether you can bring up the list of

Recent apps. Next, try touching one

of the other apps to switch to that app

and see whether you can get back to

the Home screen by pressing the

Home button again from the new app.

If your DROID continues to be

unresponsive, try pressing and

holding the Power/Lock button on

the top of the phone until you bring up

the Phone options. Next, tap Power

off, and then turn your phone back on

by pressing and holding the

Power/Lock button.

4. Make sure your DROID isn’t running out of power. Tap the Settings icon, then

Battery Manager on the DROID 2 and DROID X. If you have 15% power or less,

you should recharge your DROID right away.

5. Try performing a battery-pull. Begin by removing the battery and replacing it.

Power off the phone as described previously, if possible, and then open the

battery cover door and remove the battery. Wait a few seconds and replace the

battery and door. Next, power on the phone and see whether everything is

working again.

If these steps don’t work, or if your DROID seems to be getting stuck with particular

apps, then read the “Managing Your Apps” section. If your DROID still won’t work after

trying all these steps, then you will need to perform a factory reset of your DROID or

look at more advanced troubleshooting techniques or additional resources that we’ll

touch on later in this chapter.

Managing Your Apps

You can do a few things to manage and troubleshoot your applications on your DROID

in your Settings app. We’ll cover some of these in the upcoming sections.
