How to force restart Samsung phone without using screen menu

Nowadays you can only shutdown Samsung phone by holding the power button which brings up a menu with options for shutdown, restart and emergency mode. Without a working screen, there was no way to select from the menu.

I wanted to shutdown a Samsung Galaxy J7 Pro that I had the screen changed but it couldn't display anything. Holding down the power and volume down button until the phone vibrated did the trick.

Restart your device

In the unlikely event that your device becomes unresponsive, you can attempt a force restart. This will turn your device off and back on without affecting any data stored on the device.
