Thanks for this thread, disabled AutoCall now(luckily didn’t do it when I rebooted my X once)

So to hard reset you need to hold all three buttons? I thought you just had to hold volume down and power as if your turning it off

No not all three at once, in sequence.
 
May I ask you why you needed to hard reset the iPhone? I had a very bizarre issue this afternoon (screen completely unresponsive to touch for some minutes) and I wonder if the same happened to you. Eventually it started working again on its own but I was kinda worried.
I had an issue where in the lock screen I kept trying to swipe up but it won’t leave the lock screen even though the Face ID icon shows unlocked. The screen would just bounce up. I tried to power off regularly but it doesn’t respond to my swipe on the Power off slider. I worked around it by using search to get safari to open. The scroll was very unresponsive. I thought it was a hardware failure. After doing a proper hard power off / restart it was ok again and I haven’t experienced it again yet.

Had to throw that, “yet” in didn’t you. Have you ever owned a computer, phone, tablet, modem, cable box, Wi-Fi hub, where the software has not hung up at one time or another? It happens so we reboot.

Course it’s gonna be a frantic and exciting reboot when the computer of the self driving car we are sitting in back seat of locks up at 70 mph. Exciting times a coming.😱

That’s just to power off. If you want a hard reset, or if your screen is unresponsive, you can do the volume up, volume down, side button. That resets with only physical buttons.
