hi guys I'm having hard problems with my newly bought gadget. Here's the list TIA.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 Problems/Issues
Model#: SM-T815Y
Android Version: 5.0.2
1. random hanging 3x-10x/day depends on usage.
problem: hanging that leads to black display screen and the lights of the 2 soft touch button beside the home button is ON.
temporary solution: soft reset -> press the power button+volume down for atleast 10secs
or until boot up screen shows up.
1a. random hanging usually happens
-when downloading or opening something in the Playstore.
-exploring the settings of the gadget.
NOTE: I noticed that it happens frequently when clicking/using apps
that is related to its Internal Memory.(eg. problem#2)
NOTE: Happened since the 1st time of usage/exploring.
2. Calculating the Size of the Applications
problem 1: it keeps saying computing even after 30mins of leaving the screen.
temporary solution: unmount sd card>remove sd card>insert sd card.
problem 2: can't clear cache of an application.
temporary solution: need to restart the gadget for it to take effect.
3. Auto Restart then it didn't boot up properly. It only stayed in Samsung Screen.
4. After charging I open the tab and it always says safe to remove SD card when I check in settings sd card was not detected.
happens everytime I charge the tab and open it from being shutdown.
5. everytime i restart or shutdown>powerOn the tablet extreme lagging is happening especially when doing something in Settings afterwards a dialog "Touch Wiz app has stopped" is always popping up.
NOTE: try to open the internet browser then close it you will notice the slow exiting execution of the browser.
Any suggestions on how to permanently fix these problems?
Is it Software or the gadget it self is the main problem?
Many Many THANKS cheers~
All these problems could easily be related to a bad SD card. Take it out for a couple of days and see how it goes.

I have a question for though who has the 9.7 version.
I have a situation with the main home button and the sleep/wake up button, it may not be a problem, but just the way it was made, when you press the home button and the sleep/wake up button while the tablet is locked in the right side some colorful lines apperas for approx. 0,1 s. Can someone help me with this?
Anyone else have issues with the Galaxy Tab S2 bowing and the screen lifting?

Hi guys,
I am having some very strange issues with my Galaxy i9000.
Its stock, no mods and has a few apps running but they are totally safe ones from the Android store.
Ok the problem....
A few says ago for no apparent reason, my Galaxy started to freeze up. By that I mean all functionality was gone. Touch screen was and is unresponsive, the Home button does not work, and with the exception of the power button its a brick. Even when I hit the Power button and you get the options for flight mode and so on, you cant select an option as the touch screen doesnt work. All I can do is take the battery, sim and ext memory out, wait 30 seconds, and put it all back in and start it up.
All works fine till, just when you think all booted fine and you have service, then a message comes up saying.....
"Application TwLauncher (in process com.sec.android.app.twlauncher) is not responding." and you are presented with 2 options.... "Force close" or "Wait".
I have tried both but with no success (Note: this is the only time the touch screen works) and I have searched this and many other sites for a answer but no joy so now I pose the question. What is TwLauncher? and how do I fix this problem?
Any help gratefully welcomed as I have hit the wall and my Galaxy is about to hit it as well unless I get it to work properly.
Cheers

You might have corrupted sd or it is a kernel problem

When I go to use my phone I press the power button to bring up the lock screen my phone then shows a black screen followed by the start up screen (that has Samsung Galaxy S GT-i9000 on it) sits there for about 3-4 seconds and goes to the lock screen! It is then laggy while it reads my micro SD again.
Basically it acts as if I have just turned it back on.
I'm running stock 2.3.3 with root and setCPU.
setCPU is set to 1000max 800min (is this okay to use this way?)
I'm a moron when it comes to my phone and need help!
This is what I would do.
First remove your SD and see if the problem goes away. A faulty MicroSD caused the same symptoms before to me in the past.
If that doesn't work then I'd factory reset it since it may be an app causing the issue, and install only known apps with no issues.
Best of luck...

Thanks man that actually makes sense, It would happen on my old phone too every now and then! Honestly never thought about the sd card!
I would put setCPU back to defaults. Sounds a bit like sleep of death (SOD) which can be caused by UV settings
I have an Galaxy Ace that is around 2 years old, it's got a stock rom and it's rooted.
Now here's what's happening to it, the menu button on doesn't work, but at random times it seems to come to life and then I can't use my phone because the menu keeps popping up and won't let me open any app. It's like someone is repeatedly tapping the button or pressing down on it.
Sometimes if I press down on the return button it will stop but as soon as I release it it starts again, note that it's not always happen as the return button tends to get unresponsive too during this episodes.
Rebooting the phone only causes it to boot into safe mode and after a few seconds it will freeze and reboot again.
I've tried removing the battery and leaving it for a few minutes and removing the SD card and sim card before rebooting, but neither worked.
Could someone know what's going on here?
Hi
Try a factory reset , if still doesn't work then Flash Back To stock using odin and check that your SD Card isn't infected by any kind of Virus.You can also try doing a factory reset and then remove the SD Card.

Hi all,
My Galaxy S5 has been a real bear lately. At least once every single day, the phone completely locks up. Usually it's with the screen on, but other times has been while the screen is off and I can't get it to turn on. The weird part is that if there's an animation on the screen (like the battery charging animation), the animation still plays but everything else is just stuck. The only way to fix it is to battery pull or hold down the volume down + home + power buttons and force it to reboot.
This happening every day, at least once if not more. I've flashed different ROMs hoping that it was just a ROM that was the issue, but it doesn't fix it. When I flash the ROMs, I make sure to wipe everything except the SD card so it's a very clean install, but alas no bueno.
I'm about at my wits end and ready to go to the AT&T store today to turn in my phone and get a Nexus 6 or Galaxy S6, but thought maybe someone here may have ran into the same issue and was able to resolve it.
any help appreciated - thanks!
Until recently, my HD+ has continued to labor on almost flawlessly since converting over to full Android quite some time ago. It is currently running v5.1.1/CM 12.1-20151018 Ovation.
In the last two months it has started to simply not boot up (even while fully charged) unless I plug it in. Even then, it takes several minutes before it boots. I can get it to reboot while unplugged, but if I fully shut it off by holding down the power button, it will not restart unless I plug it in again.
Have had to go to holding the power button down for full shutoff as it also will spontaneously reboot if you select power off from the menu.
As it has not exhibited any issues until now, I am clueless as to what is going on.
I am using it only for viewing photos taken with my digital camera via its sd card, using it for graphic novels, and using the Prestigio ereader for for ebooks with photographs and color plates.
Other than the apps for the graphic novels and Prestigio, I have it totally stripped down and don't even use the wifi connection.
Will be very greatful for any assist with fixing this.
Could it be as simple as refreshing 12.1 or should I go back to 11.1?
PS: Appears to be related to having the sd card inserted or not. Will start with card out when it won't with it in. Cannot reboot into TWRP.
PPS: It was definitely the sd card used to configure the Nook. Replaced it with a clean one and (almost) all of the problems disappeared.
Still does a spontaneous reboot if I use the software "Power Off" from the menu once the power button is pushed.
If I hold the power button it will fully turn off and not reboot. and then starts normally.
For the limited use I have configured it for, I should leave "well enough" alone at this point.
Any ideas as to the spontaneous restarts???
It still has one of the best screens around!!!
Thanks in advance.
