Galaxy S7 Edge Weird Issue - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers

Does anyone have a issue where the mobile sometimes performs some operations delayed. Like for example:
1. When I click check for updates in settings menu the menu doesn't popup instantly it pops up after like 30 min.
2. Cannot send messages same issue messages are sent after 30 min.
3. Same thing with Google Play updates, they get downloaded and get stuck on installing(they do get installed after some time like 30-45 min)
I already tried resetting the OS and it worked good for a few days and same issue popped up.
Should I replace the device?

Tab starts, then stucked at lock-screen and then randomly-auto-restarts

Ok so i'm getting this weird error :S, after fixing other problems i started installing some apps, everything fine.
after installing around 30 apps (not big ones, around 3mb each, only 3 o4 are like 40mb) i found that my tablet got reeeeeeeeeeeeeally slow at startup, it starts, then it freezes and the it takes like 10 minutes or more to respond (please ignore the random restart title, i thought it was auto-restarting but now i see that i was restarting it annd because of the freezing it took like 2 minutes to respond to my previous "force-reboot" and so i was thinking it was not my reboot but an auto-reboot.
EDIT: i decided to let the tablet alone to see if it restarts or anything and after like 10 minutes o more it sudenly comes back to normal, and i find out becuase i hear the whistle from my email inbox and then it is all normal again but that wasn't happening, could it be all because of the load of apps? i think 5 or more minutes freezed is too much, is there a way to check what's being loaded at startup?
running: Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0, JB 4.1.1 stock rom rooted

[Q] Htc one x problems

So Ive been having issues with my Htc One X and I decided to send it back to Htc (through warranty) to fix the issues... The following are issues I have encountered with the phone on Jb..
Phone randomly reboots after selecting an app
Background Wallpaper would just disappear and turn black
I would select to use an app such as Instagram for example, and it would pop up for a second but then go back to home screen each time
Text messages would come hours late but say received at an earlier time
Keyboard would disappear when texting
Signal would drop to no signal because the phone is "preparing sim" (like when it first comes on) (which is randomly)
Htc Sense would randomly close along with process com.android..etc. (see picture for screenshot, notice task bar has also diapered. )
After the pop up notifications of Htc sense or whatever crashing or stopping I would have to press ok like 50 times to get it to stop popping up..or try to hurry up and restart before it comes back up
Can anyone explain what's going on??????? I have sent my phone to Htc multiple (at least more than 5) times to be fixed and before this time it was a refurbished device because they messed up my usb port on my original phone. I do not run a lot of apps and even with some apps uninstalled it still continues to act like this and I would usually have to restart.. I wish I could unlock boot loader and flash new ROM to fix it.. but they always send it with Jelly Bean installed from stock.
That's quite a collection of issues! Since the phone is bone stock, I'd just try a factory reset, then installing a minimum of apps, and see if the issues still occur. Or run the phone in Safe Mode, and see how it behaves. If its still acting up, send it back again.

Could not honestly tell you, maybe it is some setting you have on the phone. Or may be it is a genuine hardware issue that needs to be repair or replaced. If you sent it 5 times, you should be able to get a brand new phone. I know with AT&T, after the third time, they will replace the phone with a comparable phone

[Q] Phone unusable since Lollipop

Hi
I updated my Nexus 5 to Lollipop via the autoupdater and while I initially disliked the look and how really counterintuitive everything suddenly was, it has now become practically unusable.
For starters, apps crash all the time. Simply using Chrome or UC browser results in a crash back to "desktop" every few seconds and when the browser is reopened it is back to the main page having lost any tabs etc.
This also happens with other apps such as the music player which closes and when reopened my audiobook is reset back a random amount.
When this crash happens, I find myself on the main page of the phone but it is totally blank for a few seconds until it jerks right, then left and some app icons appear and then freezes a few more and the rest appear, as if it has reset.
I have today discovered this 'crash' happens even when the phone is locked now as my wife tried to call me and got VMail so sent a few texts which I didn't get til I unlocked my phone and experienced the same blank screen and slow reappearance of apps and finally a missed call and 3 texts.
All in all my phone is pretty useless now. Any apps I run inevitably crash and unless my phone is unlocked I cannot receive calls or emails/texts.
Any ideas or plans for this shambles to be fixed?
Thanks
Easy to fix - wipe it and flash a factory image...

Time in notification bar doesn't update and delay in receiving SMS.

I just bought a used S8+ and set it to factory settings. Installed all apps and it looked to be working fine. Now I have 2 issues which I can't troubleshoot myself sk any help would be appreciated!
1. The time in the notification bar freezes and updates in irregular intervals (sometimes it freezes for mroe than an hour). If i turn on or off automatic time it refreshes. The time in the widgets and on my lock screen are correct!
2. There is a HUGE delay in receiving SMS messages! It takes up to 30 minutes to receive an sms, which isn't that great when you want to verify your number in some apps....
If you can help with any of these problems, I'd really appreciate it!
I had this problem, not with my S8+ but with my S7 after looking everywhere trying every app, cleaning, resetting i came to the conclusion it was my carrier who messed it up. Maybe flash it with a stock rom and see if that is going to fix the problem.
Thanks for the info, I was thinking about something like that. I'm going to try and see what it does without ny sim card. The SMS seems to be the sms service and app that were in power saving mode.
Ii hope you will figure it out, always it's the best if you open a thread state what you exactly have example
i have SM-GF955F - Oreo 8.0 - CRB7 - ROOTED
The troubleshooting can go smoother

Is my phone on the way out??

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?

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...
