Dear all,
just got my S7 (literally). I haven't even finished setting my apps, only to find out I can't get inside the option "Do not disturb".
When I tap on Do not Disturb, system crashes and returns this exact message:
"O config. parou" (in Portuguese), which in English is translated as "the settings stopped"
Doesn't matter if I try to access it via settings or via quick settings on the notification area.
I've searched on the internet on how to solve it but found nothing. Can you guys help me?
I've already tried to wipe the cache partition (power+home+vol.up).
Thanks a lot.
update: I just switched to English, and the English version of the error is:
Unfortunately, settings has stopped.
I get the same error, while every other option works normally. Don't know what is causing it, because that error was showing up from the moment i first turned my s7 on...
I've had the exact same issue. After switching to a new launcher (nova) I've not had the issue anymore.
It seems like I've solved the problem by doing this:

Even though it's kinda weird, because I had the same issue on my 1st attempt (after updating the firmware), but it went away out of nothing on the 2nd attempt.
I'll keep you posted.

My phone (S7 edge exynos) received a software update today and it fixed the following not disturb settings crash.

i just bought this note edge and i have a problem. i get the error that the cocktail bar has stopped working whenever i try to open a folder on the edge screen. Im currently on the russian 5.1.1 that was posted on this forum. But the error existed on the 5.0.1 OTA version i had. I have done factory reset but it doesnt help.
i first thought it was the night clock mode that caused it because it worked for about 10 min after i disabled it. anyone have a clue to what is causing it? i dont want to return it, but if it doesnt get fixed i have to.
I have some problems with my Z5, and they are starting to get really annoying.
Now, i havent looked for an answer for this one yet, but since i'm making a post, i will just throw it in here. The fingerprint scanner stoppes working sometimes, and i get this error message saying that "the hardware is not available" or something like that. It is in norwegian, so i just have to translate it myself. My device is rooted, but this occured while my phone wasn't rooted or anything like that. The problem fixes itself when i reboot. This is not a huge problem for me, since i can live without the fingerprint scanner, but i like to use it, and it is very annoying.
I have looked for an answer to this, and i have not found any other threads than for Z5 Compact, and there was no solution in that thread. 1 or 2 times a day i get this error message that says that it is unable to play the video. This is extremely annoying, as i use the app often, and the only way to fix it is to reboot the phone. This was also a problem before i rooted the phone. It stopped doing it for some weeks, but now, the last week or so, it has started again and it is driving me insane.
I have tried to:
Reinstall app
Force close app (and all other apps to see if that helped)
Clear cache
Factory reset
The only thing that helpes for a few hours is to reboot the phone.
Right now i'm using build 32.1.A.1.185 with androplus kernel. But i had the same problem the first days i had the phone before i rooted.
Sorry for possible bad grammar as english is not my main language
Nice to have someone raised this issue. I have the same issue from time to time and yes, the only solution for now is to restart your phone but it gets annoying. I think this is not related to if you're rooted or not. This may be hardware related or decoder related? After watching several videos from YouTube, all other streaming videos does not play. Fingerprint scanner stops functioning as well until you restart. Hope someone can find the solution.
I have the same problem when I watch 3 or more videos, and the "hardware fingerprint not avaliable" message appears after youtube report an error on reproduction, when I press the button "try again", the fingerprint won't work anymore (only reboot fix the error)
For the YouTube problem: have you tried turning WiFi on and off instead of rebooting?
that's your solution, if your phone is rooted: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...back-issue-t3290793/post64763489#post64763489
not sure if it only works with unlocked bootloader.
Go to settings > apps > google play services > permissions. Then turn off body detecting. Worked for me.
I'm having an issue getting into my lock screen and security settings. Every time I try to open it, it crashes. I can get into every other setting besides lock screen and security. Also can't use the search feature without it crashing. Galaxy S8+here. Anyone know a work around without having to factory reset my device?

strange,
please give more details
I'm having the exact same problem on my s8+. Cannot use search function in settings menu or settings just crashes. Only discovered today actually, that I can't access lock screen and security now. Clicking on lock screen and security causes settings to crash. Have you been able to fix this? I really don't want to have to do a reset.
try safe mode so you can find out if it is caused by an app
If you forgot the login password , you can not access your phone
I'm having the exact same problem. Only noticed after installing bixby and it recommending setting up smart lock from the lock screen and then not being able to get in to the settings. Was working fine when I used it just a couple days ago, not sure if bixby has anything to do with it but have tried wiping cache and safe mode with no luck?
Edit: so just after getting a new firmware update the problem seems to be fixed. Not sure if this was an actual issue with the old firmware or any update would have fixed it.

So this has actually happened to me 2x. It's effecting my phone currently. The first time it just kinda fixed itself after an update thru T-Mobile. Sucks. Can't use Google Maps or Inbox at all either. So frustrating.
My settings crashes when I go to set "Emergency Alerts" and the Advanced settings in Mobile Hotspot. Wiping cache doesn't help. Anyone else have this happen?
Hi All,
I've had the phone about 8 months, UK model.
About 2 months ago, when scrolling in Wikipedia pages on Chrome browser, the display would alternate between normal and blue light (eye comfort). It still does occasionally.
From a few weeks ago, the keyboard sometimes take about 10s to appear.
A few days ago when on voice call from the phone other person can't hear me but I can them while voice call on Whatsapp is fine both ways. Restarting phone seems to solved it for now.
Then yesterday while trying to access settings from either the home screen or app drawer, it fails but you can see its attempting to as you see the settings screen momentarily then a message comes up saying settings failed to start several times and whether to restore by clearing history. Doing that doesn't work. The only way that I can is to touch and hold the settings icon till the search option comes up and then type the particular setting I want.
Before I do anything to fix this, are these symptoms an indication the phone is on the way to a complete breakdown? Would it be a software problem and I suppose the 1st step to fix is factory reset.
Has anyone experience this on their phone?
Reset the phone to factory settings

Unfortunately it's the Oppo software that causes these issues... We hope we can unlock the bootloader soon and flash custom roms to remedy these problems since Oppo are just incompetent.
Chrome colour shift is fixed by typing into your chrome address bar and type: "chrome://flags" then search "Dynamic Color Gamut" and set it to disabled (or it was enabled, I forget since I didn't have the issue myself)
Oppo uses the wrong microphone on third party apps like whatsapp, signal, instagram etc. and we have to wait for an update to fix that. (Issue has been posted here before)
The rest of the issues you described sound like some software instability caused by the Android 11 update. You should save your data and do a factory reset.
If the issues persist after the reset and you didn't install any dodgy apps or modified the software using adb then consider sending the phone in for repair.
OK thanks for replies. So factory reset then...
Hey there, I really need some help of you guys... I am using the ROG Phone 5 as my daily driver for quite a while now - never had serious problems.
Now, after updating to Android 12, I tried to install a launcher - no problems - place apps on the homescreen - no problems - and cannot add a single widget to any launcher. The pop-up, where it asks if the launcher is allowed to create widgets doesn't show up, instead it always says "settings stopped working".
Only the standard ASUS-Launcher, which ist quite bad, let's me place widgets, as you do not have to give permissions there. Never had this problem and don't know what to do now... Can someone help me please? :3
Re-installing the launcher as well as resetting the phone didn't work for me - seems like there this is a OS realted issue? Maybe there is a workaround?
Hey,
I've searched the internet for a really long time to find someone who also has my problem. I can agree with you one hundred percent, I also own the ASUS Rog Phone 5 and can't use any widget by using an other launcher than the standard ASUS. I keep getting the same error message too. I'm getting desperate, can someone help us?
Hey, got the same problem here, didn't expect to find anyone asking about it here. Also, I'm using the 5s Pro version, but I guess they're not that different. Weird thing for me though, I did not have this problem before, I use nova launcher and it worked perfectly fine but a couple weeks ago my phone just died on me while I was playing and had to send it to a service place, they changed the motherboard and I got it back yesterday, after installing stuff on it, when I got to the launcher part I was super confused about this thing, I got the same message "Settings stopped working", I had made a backup of my launcher on another phone and sent it on my rog phone, the widgets appeared but couldn't load completely (I had a weather widget and a calendar) I pressed on them and that message popped again. I randomly tried pressing multiple times on the widget and I got a text saying "factory reset" "restarting" or something like that (didn't quite get it since it restarts quickly and then it brings me in a menu asking me to try loading my system again or do a factory reset, this is a pretty strange problem/bug/whatever, and I hope Asus will fix it at some point.
