Clear App Cache / Data:

- Press Power to select

NOTE: If clearing the cache partition didnt solve the problems, you can try factory resetting your phone. Visit this link for instructions on how to reset the HTC Desire 828.

- From the pop-up window, tap and hold Power off
- When prompted to Reboot to safe mode, tap Restart
