No removable battery question

Hello!

I am a loyal Optimus V user who may be considering upgrading to the HTC One V. Since the battery cannot be taken out, what steps van be taken in case of a freeze?
 
I've the big brother of the One V, the One X and if the V works the same way (I'm sure it would as the One S does the same), if you hold the power button down for 10 seconds, it will reset itself.

I've been in bootloops through flashing ROMs etc and holding the power button down works no matter what state the phone is in.
 
OH! Okay. I wasn't sure what the options were. It makes perfect sense now, of course they would have the ability to do that. I am so used to just pulling the battery :D

I'll see what happens when VM decides to release the phone. I would get in now, but I only see it on Amazon and etc...

My experience with the One V is the same, except I've never had a bootloop. :eek:
 
I actually like it better than pulling the battery. (I have the One S) It's a lot easier when you have a case on your phone, you don't have to take that off, then pull the battery ;).

yeah the only reason batteries cannot be reomved these days is so that the government can trac you no matter what!
