Hello,
My SGT p1010 got unresponsive (the display didn't want to turn on) and I held the power key untill shut down. After turning on again, the home and search keys are touchable (I get the vibrant feedback), but there isn't any action performed. I unfroze some samsung stuff I had frozen before that and restarted, but no effect.
As a side effect, the icons and widget (accuweather) I placed manually on the desktop disappeared, and the programs got sorted by name (not like before - the latest installed - after the earlier ones).
Was this some kind of soft-hard reset?! No info disappeared though..
Any ideas why is this happening and how to fix it?
Well, I just did factory reset and it's all ok now..
It will happen again
i had the same problem. went to a samsung store and they updated the gt software. they were sure that the update was the solution to the issue, but it happened again. please contact samsung support to make them know this important problem.
Same problem here.
Contacted Samsung. Waiting for a call.
Problem:
- Home screen reset to factory settings. Some settings like key sounds reenabled
- Home and Search key not working
All account settings and apps are still there.
Also when you shutdown the phone there is only one option "shut down". There were 3 before. Like offline mode and one other option i don't remember.

Just what I was gonna recommend. It usually does the trick
Tbolt meatclaws-talkatap
Doing the "trick" every day is not that great though...
Again
This stupid issue happened AGAIN....I refuse to factory reset it again! Any ideas?
@ravage2k : did u get a call from Samsung?
It happened to me 2 weeks ago, did a factory reset and I'm waiting for the next time :'(

Bad Samy BAD!
happened to me just now, the KIES trick fixed for me, but not only the buttons do not worked, even my google acount wasn't registered, after unplugin the device it asked me for my acount restore settings, and also no lock screen until pluged to kies We really need an update for the P1010 even if it not froyo but this problem seems to be for a lot of users... I dont whant to connect to kies every day just for the fix
the problem keeps spreading to all reagions

I've had this problem for the past 6 weeks since I got my gt p1010. It happens a couple of times per week. Grrrrr.
The Kies solution fixes the home key & lock button issue and all the apps are there, however I get the following two things:
* All Homepage data is lost (I have to re-do all of my homepage icons)
* My browser bookmarks are all lost
Haven't done a factory reset as I'm not convinced this will fix the issue - that certainly seems to be the case for Malicieux anyway!!
Might this be something to do with pattern lock??
Has anyone found a solution to this yet?????
We need a firmware update and fast!!!
P1010 Home and Search Key not working
Hi Guys,
I have read your posts and have also had this really annoying problem.
The last time I did a factory reset, I have intentionally not installed any additional apps or setup my Exchange e-mail client, as I strongly suspect that it will be down to something like this.
I have not had any problems at all so far - where before it would lock up and reset multiple times in one day.
I have not yet installed any of the previous apps I had, but I will be installing one a day until I find it crash again.
It didn't have many apps on their but here are a list. I am curious to see if anyone who has also experienced these issues had installed the same apps as me.
Skype, BBC Iplayer, GoogleSky
or were connected to an Exchange account.
I have setup my exchance account once more today - but without checking the Sync Calender or contacts options.
It has been working for 1/2 day with still no problems.
I suggest everyone else who has this problem does the same and we nail down the offending app!
You will need to do a factory reset - not a Kies Sync fix - because you will always get the problem again (because you still have the offending setup / app)
Let's nail this down!
I have a P1000, so not sure how valid this is. I searched on Google and there appears to be an Android issue 8503 (I think?) related to this:
Home button vibrates but no action
Search doesn't work
cut-down "power off" menu
no security lock
I experienced this issue repeatedly when updating Overcome ROM, I narrowed it down to restoring backed up apps. So I've downloaded apps from the market and restored data from Titanium Backup. I think I've got a contaminated back-up somewhere.
Since not restoring apps (after trying at least twice, maybe 3x), my system has been stable. While not pinpointing the issue, I hope this helps someone...?
@ irw030370 same here...
@ snesy i think the problem lies with Skype.
my father has the same problem with his P1010 ans the same temporal solution when connecting the tab to his pc ( he does not need to start Kies, just connect it with a usb cable )
I did a reset once but installed all the SW directly after that...
strange thing is that my mother has also a p1010 same version of FW and so on and does not have that problem...
next week i'll get my hands on his tab and will perform a hard reset, and do as you suggest.
Will update my findings later on...
Greets,
T.
Edit :
With the basic install, added only skype and some email accounts. I did not have an issue.
Still looking...
Hi all
any advance on this problem?
You should update to Android 2.3.
Check Kies or follow http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1410035
I did not have any problems with this new version so far.
So I just bought a Galaxy Gear watch a few weeks ago and I just love it. The only problem I am having is that my camera stopped working about a week after I got it. Everytime I attempt to turn it on all I get is 15 seconds of black screen and then a message that says "Unfortunately the camera has stopped working" . I have already reset the gear twice and made sure I have the most recent update...neither of those fixed my problem. I have not been able to use it and was hoping someone here would have a miracle answer to help me fix the problem.
i make format factory and format dilvake and format data all format and the result nothing plz help me plz

After reading this post above I decided to mess around with the watch and realized that you just need to: <<<<<<<<<(BEND THE PART OF THE WRIST BAND THAT HAS THE CAMERA ****ABOVE IT**** bend the band inwards and out, but mostly in.) >>>>>>>>>
It worked for me
So I've had my R for a couple of months now, and it's been working fine, until after it was updated to 5.0.2. It stopped connecting to my Nexus 6, so I reset it. After that, the Android Wear app would never find it. I've wiped my phone, tried two other phones (Nexus 5 with Lollipop, Nexus 4 with KitKat) and nothing sees it. I haven't unlocked the bootloader or anything. It just sits at the "Install Android Wear on your phone" screen. Any ideas?

I am having the exact same issue. And lately google play services and contacts and other things began randomly crashing ALOT on my verizon note 4. Nothing rooted all stock on phone and watch. Did our bluetooth radios die or is this a widespread problem with an update noone has documented yet? I need my watch lol. Any one else?

Did anyone figure out a solution to this? Is it the watch or the phone (i'm using an s6 edge)?
All i get is "install android wear on your phone" on my moto 360, and on the android wear app it doesn't find my watch. I literally cannot do anything on my watch but stare at the "install android wear on your phone" message. I only tried to reset my watch because it was connecting and disconnecting rapidly every 5-10 seconds for hours and was my last resort.
Anyone please help?!

I am having same problem as op, why would you not root again and wipe dalvik if that was working before, i have been trying to root so i can do this but i cant got stuck on twrp and would not boot to start up so i flashed everything back to normal and bluetooth will not show at all on any device...
I believe it has to do with the latest version of android wear. Ever since the last update a lot of people have been reporting the same and similar problems in the play store. A fix for me even though it is inconvenient is resitting the watch and re installing android wear. Every since the update I have to do that every couple of days.

what I do is first I unpair the watch from the phones bluetooth settings, then I uninstall android wear from the phone. Then I take the watch and I go under settings and reset the watch, once the watch is finished resetting I re-install android wear on the phone and re-pair.

ANSWER: after resetting your watch, you must unpair the watch from your phone, then go to settings/apps/android wear "clear data" . then start the whole pairing process again.

I've done every steps above: Factory reset my GWR, then on my phone I clear data in setting - apps - android wear then pair again. My GWR connect successfully but after sync app it disconnect, then my phone can not find the watch anymore.
I've done all these steps 5-6 times and the result still the same!

This is what happened to mine. I tried all the things mentioned in this thread, but finally the only thing that worked was a hard factory reset (swipe from top left to bottom right over the LG logo when booting) and then leaving the watch on charger for like 3 hours and finally my phone could see and connect to it. I've heard this worked for others too.

what version was it on b4 i was having the same problem on 5.0.2 but after manual update to 5.1.1 everything works good.
im on 5.1.1 .
i think my bluetooth is broken
useless watch
I've had it since Saturday and so far its done it 3 times.
Once yesterday just when I was trying to open the phone with the fingerprint sensor and twice now today when trying to do something with the phone connected to Bluetooth.
This morning I was trying to set up the connection to my in car TomTom Toyota 2 unit for the first time. Got part way through the process then it failed then when i tried again the phone rebooted then it worked.
This afternoon I turned on my Bluetooth connected to the car but it wouldn't do anything then the phone froze and rebooted but then it all worked fine.
I'm not giving up yet but its making me a bit nervous having these issues so soon (better now than later i guess). If it happens more this week ill take it back and might see about a different phone.
Just curious if anyone else has had similar?
This Bluetooth device worked fine previously with my Nexus 5X also on Oreo so its fine software compatibility wise.

No, I haven't had a single reboot in the 6 days that I own the device.

Have you tried performing a factory reset? It might fix your problem. If it persists, then you can send it back for a replacement.
Rebooted again today just in the camera.
Not tried a factory reset yet, will take it into store today and see what they say is best to do. Don't mind doing a reset but then its waiting again to see if it does it again after which isn't something I can easily replicate.
If i can get a new unit id prefer that so i can see if its just my current one with an issue, even with the pain of having to buy a new screen protector.

If the factory reset doesn't work, install the Sony Companion software and run a software repair on it. That may fix the issue. Mine hasn't restarted at all in the 24 hours I've had it, even after using Wifi, Bluetooth, installing lots of apps, using 3G and 4G... However, I installed Newpipe via F-Doid and it crashed at least 4 times on me when I left the video I was watching and came back to it.
No reboots. Two days of heavy use.
I factory reset it soon as I received it and firware update poped up.

No reboot, have had phone for over a week now.
What did the store recommend you do? Here, they always suggest you factory reset first, same with going to the service center, they actually do that first thing when you send in for repairs.
What did you eventually do? Did it solve your problem?

I took it into a store the other day and they had no stock so i'm taking it to a different one today. The store i went to said it would be no problem though as id not had it long. Its been rebooting still a few times just when sitting in my pocket doing nothing, ive had the must enter pin after reboot message.
Well on the way to store speaking to my wife (also with XZ1 compact) her phone froze mid call and rebooted. When she rang back she said she was showing a software update. Checked mine when parked and i had it too.
Sony rep happened to be in store today so told him the issue, he had one himself and hasn't experienced or heard of this but said to do a repair with xperia companion to clean flash the new firmware on both our phones. If still having issues then theres nothing more we could do ourselves and bring back to store to swap.
I have another week in which i can change phone or another 3 weeks to swap for a new XZ1 compact.
Will do repairs tonight and hope the problem goes away.
Repaired friday evening, phone rebooted randomly again after freezing sunday. Taking in today to swap for a new unit.
If any similar problems this week with the new one ill ask to swap to a different phone entirely.
Probably need a software update. Mine is running fine on 47.1.A.2.324

No i updated that on friday before repairing and the repair had that version too and it still rebooted sunday and today.
Me and my wife got a new unit now so will see how these ones go.
got my first reboot today after plugging the headphone... weird...

Not good if others are getting this too, lets hope it was a one off for you.
So far just setup and listened to music on my new phone and all is good but there's no pattern to what causes the reboot so will see how the next few days go.
My XZ1 Compact also has the reboot-issue...
Mine has just done the fourth reboot in just a little more than one week. In different situations, with bluetooth in use and without. Once when I tried to call someone, once when I was searching for wifi networks and the other two times in pretty normal "just using it" situations.
As not everyone is having those issues, I think it is some hardware defect and I need to get the phone replaced, right?

Difficult to tell. A hard reset might help but it could also be a problem with Android 8 on xz1 that wasnt very well optimized..
Id get the handset replaced, 'repairing' didn't do anything for my issue. Only time will tell if my new handset has the same issues and same for you.
Well this morning I got in the car to go to work and went to turn on bluetooth. Tried OK google no response at all, went to manually unlock and it sat on the lock screen my finger prints not working and wouldnt swipe up for PIN entry. Mic and camera toggle reacted to swipes but didnt do anything. Then it rebooted.
Bye bye Xperia XZ1 Compact, the potential was there but rebooting and dodgy camera is too much to hope for a fix for.
Hello there! This is my first time in this forum so I apologize if this is not the right place to post this.
So, I need help with my Note 9
SM-N9600
One UI 2.5
Snapdragon I think
For a year or so now I've been having trouble with:
- Losing volume in my earbuds
- Experiencing lag in downloaded videos in Nike Training Club and Samsung Health apps
- And most recently the Google Play Store and LBRY have crashed a lot
It all first started after installing tutuapp. at first it was all normal but after a few months I first noticed my buds coming low in volume. Of course I visited every possible thread and blog and advice on the subject but nothing would work so eventually I went to a Samsung store and they offered to reinstall the firmware so I did.
It solved everything! until dummy me I reinstalled the app. It took a couple of months to realize that tutuapp was the source of all my troubles and when that happened I never installed it again, but... I now installed an APK and it happened again. It's worth mentioning that at the time I would only notice the low volume because I didn't use the exercise apps.
Anyhow, reinstalling firmware fixed it again and again (It took me a bit realizing that the APK was the source of trouble) until it didn't and now no matter how many times I reinstall it, my right bud is lower on volume and my left bud just sounds weird. Once I did a reset on the cache memory and it actually fixed the buds volume quality perfectly, although just for about a day and then back to broken.
So far it is clear to me that Samsung has no clue as to how to fix this issue nor care to fix it really, they find any little excuse to make their job easier instead of fixing stuff in my experience. Anyway, It's been so long and I'm a bit desperate to know exactly what the problem is, let alone fix it so I appreciate any help fixing this.
Please and thank you
Factory reset and try .
Flash stock firmware via odin and try .
Fails then its probably hardware .
But as you are clear its an app you install thats the problem not Samsung firmware .

Hi! Thanks for your response.
I have done this reset reinstall countless of times so I have discard it as a solution, I actually reinstalled the firmware a couple days ago and no improvement.
The hardware thought also crossed my mind but how would that be possible? The phone doesn't even have a scratch... literally lol.
I agree it must be an app or some file or something. And I would like some help figuring out which one it is exactly.
Thanks!
