In this article, we will show you how to turn off your OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G using different methods.

The simplest way to turn off your OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G is to use the power button on the right side of the phone. You just need to press and hold the power button for a few seconds until you see a power menu on the screen. Then, tap on the “Power off” option and confirm your choice. Your phone will shut down in a few seconds. This is the most common and convenient method to switch off your phone.

How to Turn Off OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G without Power Button?

Sometimes, you might not be able to use the power button to turn off your phone. Maybe the button is broken, stuck, or unresponsive. In that case, you can try some alternative methods to switch off your phone without using the power button.

Use On-Screen Buttons

One of the easiest ways to turn off your phone without the power button is to use the on-screen buttons in the notification panel. Here are the steps to do that:

• Swipe down twice from the top of your screen to access the quick settings panel.
• Tap on the power icon at the top right corner of the screen. It looks like a circle with a line inside it.
• You will see a power menu with three options: Power off, Restart, and Emergency mode.
• Tap on “Power off” and confirm your choice.

Use Google Assistant

Another way to turn off your phone without the power button is to use Google Assistant. You can activate Google Assistant by saying “Hey Google” or by swiping up from the bottom left or right corner of your screen. Then, you can ask Google Assistant to turn off your phone by saying something like:

• “Hey Google, turn off my phone.”
• “Hey Google, power off my device.”
• “Hey Google, shut down my phone.”

Google Assistant will ask you to confirm your request by saying “OK” or tapping on the screen. Your phone will then turn off.

Use ADB Commands

If you are an advanced user and have enabled USB debugging on your phone, you can use ADB commands to turn off your phone without the power button. ADB stands for Android Debug Bridge and it is a tool that allows you to communicate with your phone from a computer via USB cable. You will need to install ADB drivers and tools on your computer before you can use this method. Here are the steps to do that:

• Download and install ADB drivers and tools from here.
• Connect your phone to your computer via USB cable.
• Open a command prompt or terminal window on your computer and navigate to the folder where you installed ADB tools.
• Type “adb devices” and press enter. You should see your phone’s serial number in the list of connected devices.
• Type “adb shell” and press enter. You should see a prompt like “$”.
• Type “reboot -p” and press enter. This command will reboot your phone and power it off.

How to Force Restart OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G

Sometimes, you might need to force restart your phone if it is frozen, unresponsive, or malfunctioning. Force restarting is different from normal restarting as it does not save any data or settings before shutting down. It is like pulling out the battery from your phone. Force restarting can help fix some minor issues on your phone, but it can also cause data loss or corruption if done frequently or improperly. Here are some ways to force restart your phone:

Use Power Button and Volume Down Button

The most common way to force restart your phone is to use the power button and volume down button together. Here are the steps to do that:

• Press and hold the power button and volume down button at the same time for about 10 seconds.
• Release both buttons when you see the OnePlus logo on the screen.
• Your phone will reboot and start normally.

Use Power Button and Volume Up Button

Another way to force restart your phone is to use the power button and volume up button together. This method is similar to the previous one, but it will also boot your phone into recovery mode. Recovery mode is a special mode that allows you to perform some advanced actions on your phone, such as wiping data, updating software, or restoring backups. You can exit recovery mode by selecting “Reboot system now” from the menu. Here are the steps to do that:

• Press and hold the power button and volume up button at the same time for about 10 seconds.
• Release both buttons when you see the OnePlus logo on the screen.
• You will see a menu with several options on the screen. This is the recovery mode.
• Use the volume buttons to navigate and the power button to select.
• Choose “Reboot system now” to exit recovery mode and restart your phone normally.

Use ADB Commands

You can also use ADB commands to force restart your phone, as explained in the previous section. However, instead of using “reboot -p” to power off your phone, you can use “reboot” to restart your phone. Here are the steps to do that:

• Connect your phone to your computer via USB cable.
• Open a command prompt or terminal window on your computer and navigate to the folder where you installed ADB tools.
• Type “adb devices” and press enter. You should see your phone’s serial number in the list of connected devices.
• Type “adb shell” and press enter. You should see a prompt like “$”.
• Type “reboot” and press enter. This command will force restart your phone.

How to Turn Off OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G Automatically

If you want to save battery or reduce distractions, you can set your phone to turn off automatically at a specific time. This feature is also known as scheduled power on/off or auto power on/off. Here are the steps to enable this feature on your phone:

• Go to Settings > System > Scheduled power on/off.
• Tap on the toggle switch next to “Scheduled power off” to enable it.
• Tap on the time below the toggle switch to set the time when you want your phone to turn off automatically. You can also choose which days of the week you want this feature to apply.
• Tap on “OK” to save your settings.

You can also set your phone to turn on automatically at a specific time by following the same steps, but choosing “Scheduled power on” instead of “Scheduled power off”.
