Infonomy is a OnePlus Nord CE 2, and today I will show you how you can put this device
0:13
into safe mode. So to get started, you'll want to hold your power key, and when you have your boot options
0:21
right here, hold power off. This in turn will bring up this window right here, reboot to safe mode, with the message
0:29
do you want to reboot into safe mode, and this will disable all third-party applications
0:33
you have installed, they will be restored when you reboot again. So let's select OK, and while the device is now rebooting, I'm going to quickly explain
0:41
what this mode is for. So in safe mode, like the message stated, every application that you have installed
0:48
yourself will basically not be able to run, and the reason for this mode is if you have
0:54
installed some kind of malicious application that is completely messing up your device
0:57
to the point that you basically cannot use it, you can boot your device into this mode
1:02
and that application will not be able to turn on in this mode, and also continue to mess
1:07
with your device, meaning you can now easily remove it and do whatever you want
1:13
Let me confirm my SIM pin. So there we go. As you can see, widgets are some of the things that also will not work in this mode, and
1:23
additionally there is a couple apps by default that don't even work
1:27
So not only the apps that you would install yourself, but also the ones that come with
1:31
this phone, at least some of them. And the way you can tell if the app will run or will not is because apps that cannot run
1:40
in this mode are monochrome. As you can see, there's Duo, which will not run, Games, which will not run, and let's
1:47
see if there's anything else. There's Netflix, YouTube Music, Play Movies and TVs, or TV, Drive, and that looks like
2:03
about it from the applications that are pre-installed that will not work
2:08
And when you try to open them up, as you can see, you get this pop-up right here, Downloaded Apps Disabled in Safe Mode
2:14
I have not downloaded them, so I'm not sure why they're disabled, but it's actually a
2:18
better thing. Because for instance, some phones come with Facebook, I would consider Facebook to be
2:28
required in this kind of mode to be blocked, but not every phone decides to do that
2:34
So I'm okay with leaving excessive amounts of apps blocked rather than not enough
2:40
But anyway, that is how you reboot into Safe Mode, and to leave this mode, all you would
2:43
need to do is hold your power key again and select Restart. Once the device boots back up, it will go back to normal mode
