How to turn off Samsung Galaxy Core Mini 4G if it is not responding?

If you cannot turn off the Samsung Galaxy Core Mini 4G since it is blocked and the previous method does not work, you must proceed to turn it off and on again using the physical buttons.

To force shutdown your Galaxy Core Mini 4G press and hold the power button (or unlock button) for at least 8 seconds until the Samsung or Android logo appears on the screen and release the button as it powers up again.

As a last resort, if you can't turn off the Galaxy Core Mini 4G with any of the above methods and you need to turn it off, you should wait for the battery to run down. You can keep the screen on and do heavy usage to drain the battery faster.

If the device still does not respond, does not turn off, or is stuck in a loop, it may indicate a hardware issue, such as a malfunctioning motherboard, memory, screen, or power button. In this case, you may need to have it repaired or use your warranty.
