Clear App Cache / Data:

NOTE: If one of your apps doesn’t work as intended, freezes, crashes, takes up too much storage inexplicable and so on, you can try fixing these problems by clearing the app’s cache / data.

WARNING! When you clear an app’s data, all personal data stored within the app will be lost. This includes profiles, high scores, saved games, settings, login and credit card information etc. To avoid losing data, clear only the application’s cache.

  1. On the home screen, swipe the “Notification” bar down
  2. Open “Settings”
  3. Access the “General” tab if necessary
  4. Tap “Apps”
  5. Swipe to “All” and select the desired app
  6. Tap “Clear cache”
  7. If necessary, tap “Clear data” > “Yes” (NOTE: read the WARNING above before clearing the data)

Wipe the Cache Partition:

NOTE: If your phone crashes, freezes, runs out of storage inexplicably or causes other issues and you’re considering factory resetting it, you can try clearing the phone’s cache partition first. This can yield similar results as a factory reset, without losing any personal data.

  1. Swipe the “Status” bar down on the home screen
  2. Open “Settings”
  3. Access the “General” tab if necessary
  4. Tap “Storage” and wait for the phone to calculate the data
  5. Once done, tap “Cached data” > “Yes”
  6. Wait for the phone to clear the cache. Once done, you should see a much lower value under “Cached data”

NOTE: If clearing the cache partition didn’t help, you can visit this thread for instructions on how you can instead master reset the LG X Power.

Reboot to Safe Mode and Uninstall an App:

NOTE: If you have installed a third party application that causes issues and prevents you from removing it, you should be able to uninstall the app from within Safe Mode. In this mode, all third party apps are disabled by default. To restart in Safe Mode:

  1. If necessary, wake the screen
  2. While viewing the home screen, press and hold “Power”
  3. At the “Power management” pop-up, tap and hold “Power off”
  4. When prompted to “Restart in Safe Mode”, tap “OK”
  5. Wait for the device to reboot. Once done, a “Safe Mode” watermark should be shown in the lower-left corner of the screen
  6. Access “Settings” and go to the “General” tab
  7. Tap “Apps” and swipe to “Downloaded”
  8. Select the desired app and tap “Uninstall” > “OK”
  9. After you have removed the app, you can exit Safe Mode by rebooting your phone as you would do normally
