[Windows Central Question]

My phone since 1AM this morning has been stuck in the sleep screen. It still shows the time correctly, maybe freezing for a minute or two and still bopping around, but nothing I do wakes it up. If I double tap it it does nothing and when I press the button on the side it does nothing. I had an alarm on and it went off but it still didn't wake up so I had to wait for the alarm to turn off itself. Someone called me and it stayed on the sleep screen as it rang. It still vibrates when I get notifications but still stays on the sleep screen. I've had this phone for two years now and I really hope this isn't permanent. Please help!

Press and hold volume up and power button till your phone shuts down and restarts. It fixes the issue, but why is it happening I simply don't know. Bring your phone to the repair service.

Soft reset by pressing and holding both power button and volume-down for 10 seconds.
