Hello, I've noticed my Galaxy Gear keeps rebooting randomly. It has no problem when stationary but when I'm driving or walking around it just keeps rebooting. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Adam

Nope everything is stock. Tried to reboot note 3, tried to reboot the gear. Nothing helped. Tried to factory reset the Gear as well, still didn't fix anything.
I'm wondering if it's something with the accelerometer cause it does fine when it's sitting on my desk.
Maybe a faulty unit with a loose battery connection...?

Strange, I would reflash the stock image in ODIN..
Iv had to do this a few times myself, mucking around with system files and bricking my gear
Hey...this may solve my missing camera app problem. Anyone know where I can get my hands on the image?

Adam, I had the same issue when i got my watch. I noticed it was randomly shutting off. More investigating revealed that it shut off if moved/wiggled.

Run over to http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ and search for SM-V700.
Download the most relevant image country/carrier, it doesn't have to match up exactly..

Awesome. Oddly, everytime you do anything on this device it seems you need to rerrot and reapply all of your apps. I just put an entire image on it and it kept everything!
Most importantly, I got my camera back
Thank you.

I think you are right, with one caveat. I just went all day without it happening, I disabled the auto screen wake-up though. I think it doesn't have the motion problem if it's not trying to detect any motion.
What did you do with yours? Get a new one?
Ever find a fix for this? Mine does it even with auto wake up disabled and has been since I got the watch. Thinking I may have to send it in for warranty replacement
Temporary Fix to my Problem
Hey, so I had the same exact problem. It was so bad to the point where if I moved the gear at all, it would shut down/reboot. How I fixed it was I turned it on without moving the Gear too much (a very hard task). I kept it on for two hours without moving it; after, I noticed it wouldn't automatically turn off again while I put it on my wrist. I don't know how this fixed the issue, but at the moment it is working well without shutting off/rebooting. I will update you guys on how the Gear is working in the next few days. Hope this clears up any confusion because I know I was very frustrated.
I have the same proble...randomly reboot and sometimes switching off and i can not switch it on again till i put it into the carging case. When the carging started,i remove the watch from the case and i can switch it on. So i dont think its a hardware issue. Will try to put the tizen system on it.
You guys are correct, the moment motion detection is stopped, this gear SMV700 stops rebooting while walking, driving, moving basically.
There is no precise info on this even firmware upgrade doesn't fix it.
Hello and Happy Turkeyday to all. I have an issue with my wife's note. When she gets any notifications they turn the screen on and it doesn't turn off. I feel pretty knowledgeable about the android O.S. in a whole, I have my S5 rooted and running AICP. I just can't figure out why the notifications cause the screen to stay on. Has anyone else had this problem maybe you could help shed some light on my issue. Thanks in advance.
Is the phone rooted?

No she won't let me root her phone.
Same problem
I have the exact same problem on my Note 4 (N910F).
My phone is rooted and I have had the problem from the start.
I am also running a custom kernel now but the problem persists.
Any ideas on why this is happening anyone? I've got it to not turn the screen on for a notification but now it won't turn off when plugged in.
Turn off the lock screen notifications, or everything you can on the lock screen settings, most likely something is causing the screen to wake lock. My bet is the weather widget.

I just searched for the same problem on the Galaxy s5 and someone said to download wakelock-detector to see if it's an app.
Will keep you updated if it helps.

So a little update, so far, my problem seems to be fixed.
After the app told me that Dsploit was causing a lot of screen-on time, I disabled the app.
Haven't had it happen so far today so I hope this helps you too.

Can anyone else have other fix? I have new note 4 with rom stock and very few apps (5-8 apps)
the "Wakelock Detector-Save Battery" app requird root this not my phone so I can't root for now.
If you have very few apps installed, uninstall those apps one by one to see which one is potentially keeping the screen on. Otherwise, do a factory reset, clear cache; also ensure power button is sticky and is fully functional.

Thx, What I did in the end is disble a few stock apps (I add a pic)
And set the Screen time to 30 sec and shut down the deivce got the battery out turn on, set the Screen time to 1 min and shut down...
a few times in the end got it back to the time I want, all of this fore "soft" reset the database of the settings
..now for about a week+ the problems won't show again :highfive:
Boot into recovery and clear cache
or factory reset like everyone said
Great to hear all is well. Please tell me that you're going to root.

So this is my replacement Note 8 cuz my last one was giving me LTE problems. That problem seems to be gone now. But now my notification panel( when swiped down) swipes back up on its own. Same when making a selection. If I turn Wi-Fi on or off, the panel jus swipes . Also it does not do this all the time but pretty often. Any fix???

Guess, you could try a factory reset to see if that fixes it. (You can also Tell Bixby to restart into SAFE mode and see if it happens, cause that will indicate if its an app that you've installed) But, maybe even try a different launcher first to see if it persists? If a different launcher fixes this...then try clearing the cache and data of the Samsung launcher...(sorry don't know what it's called). So, basically...Factory Reset as last resort. If Factory Reset doesn't resolve...then you might need another phone.
Factory reset didn't help. I have the same issue.

You could try and delete the cache and maybe data of each of the apps that you've installed one by one... Other than that, I don't know an easier way than a Reset.
I have the same issue. I haven't tried to fix it yet. If you find that it's an app or you find the problem please post.

I wonder if this has to do with the feature where the user can just swipe on the fingerprint sensor to pull down/up the notification shade. I know that can be turned off.
Both are disabled on my phone and the issue is still present.

happening to me too. just started doing either yesterday or the day before. I don't think I even installed any apps when it started happening. I already tried going back to touch wiz from nova and it is still doing it. Also tried turning on the fingerprint swipe to make the notifications open up, and it is still doing it. So its definitely not one of those issues.

mine is fixed now. I think it was one my Sprint bloatware apps. I did safe mode first to see if disappeared which it did. Then went ahead and started uninstalling apps. Problem is gone now.

Maybe a factory rest or just turn your phone off and on.
This is happening to my phone as well and it seemed to happen randomly. I thought i might've not changed it to vibrate but it has since rang while at work multiple times when i KNOW i'm putting it on silent or vibrate.

Yes it happens randomly but I miss calls because it goes to the lowest ring volume so I can't even hear it.

Check that you havent set it up on a schedules or messed up Do Not Disturb. Theres a built in app that I think called Samsung Connect that allows you to connect to other samsung devices but, also lets you set what happens during certain times of day or when you get home. Like your ring turns down at 7pm or when you get home. Id check that out aswell.

I'm saying boot into safe mode,then,keep track of which apps you enable,perhaps one of the user apps is causing it.
Naturally,if you're in safe mode & it persists w/o re-enabling any user installed apps,then you have a defective phone.

not aware that safe mode allowed you to cherry pick which apps you wanted to be enabled or not. from my experiance, all user apps were disabled and that was it. What is doable in regular mode is disable all your apps and do the same thing enable or disable. but to me it would be much more conveniant to wipe everything. then if the issue is gone, reinstall app by app till you hit the culprit. but anyways to each his own.

because the feature he has issues with is a system level feature and i would doubt an app could affect it. and if a system setting was changed then wiping is a sure way to get that reverted.

Package Disabler Pro is a user installed app & it has profound effects on system apps functions (depending on what the user disables) ,so,that's where I'm coming from.
Using safe mode is a natural step in troubleshooting before resorting to a factory reset,regardless of what is assumed to be the obvious next step.

This happens to me when I restore something and it's trying to connect to an old bluetooth device like my car. The car sees the phone as the same but the phone doesn't see the car as a paired devices so the screen comes on everytime it tries to pair

If you restored from a backup make sure you dont have any old bluetooth devices trying to connect to your phone
