How to Fix “Unfortunately Internet Has Stopped” Error on Any Android Smartphone?

Quick Fix #3 – Clear System Cache
Now that you have cleared the app cache, take a step further and clear the system cache as well. Note that cache keeps building every day thereby reducing the performance and processing of your smartphone. Thus, simply, go to Settings > Storage and tap on the Cache Storage. You’ll be prompt whether to delete the cache files or not, press Yes to delete it. It is recommended to reboot the phone once to test if the method actually worked.

Quick Fix #4 – Use Safe Mode for diagnosis
It is the diagnostic mode of any smartphone wherein users can check the culprit causing the error. When you enter the safe mode, check out if the ‘Internet’ app is working or not, if yes then the problem is with any other third-party app.

• To boot into the safe mode, turn off the phone.
• Press the Power button and then, Volume Up/down button until the phone restarts.
• Use the volume button to select Safe Mode from available options.

Quick Fix #5 – Wipe cache partition
This is the third cache related method since the cache is at the top of triggers for all software-related issues. Wiping cache partition is an advanced method and requires you to go into the Recovery mode.

• Turn off the phone.
• Press and hold the Power button, Volume Up/Down key and/or Bixby Key (Check for your make & model).
• Once the phone vibrates and shows an Android logo, you’ll have to release the keys.
• In the recovery mode, scroll using the Volume Up/down key and select an option with Power button as specified (It may vary).
• Tap on ‘wipe cache partition’ and then, select the option that says ‘Yes’.
• Once it is over, reboot the device and check out the app for errors.

Quick Fix #6 – Reset the device
It is unlikely that all these fixes didn’t help fix the problem but if your smartphone is one of them, use the reset feature. Note that it would wipe all the user data from the system, so take a backup prior to following these steps.

• Turn of the phone and press & hold Power key, Volume Up/down key and/or Bixby Key.
• Release the buttons as soon as the phone vibrates and allow it to enter the recovery mode.
• Use the Volume Up/down button for scrolling and Power button for selection (Check out the header for instructions).
• Select ‘wipe data/factory reset’ and then, select ‘Yes – delete all user data’.
• This should put your phone into reset mode.
• Reboot the device once the process is completed.
