Security Settings crashing - Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

I recently unrooted and went back to stock, and today I tried to add a fingerprint and the setting app crashes when try to acess security setting? I tried resetting all settings, cleared data and cache for settings! Any help would appreciated.

Bump? Anyone have any ideas. Don't really want to reset again.

You can flash firmware in ODIN without triggering a factory reset by using the HOME CSC

my phone keeps restarting!

hi,
i am not rooted with stock(one s), and all of a sudden my phone stuck and started restarting itself over and over again.
what should i do ?
i can access the special screen when holding the volume button, but i dont know what to do there.
can someone help me please?
Boot into your recovery and recover an old image or wipe ROM and reinstall. The Boot.img from the previous ROM you were using was probably messed up and this should probably resolve your issue.
Dude he has not rooted how will he recover an old image and flash new ROMs??
Go into bootloader(the special screen u mentioned above) and do a factory reset from there...

i have a crazy problem!
i made already 3-4 factory reset, and after the reset, everything works perfectly until i try do activate or de-activate the wifi. when i click "on" the phone crashes again and goes into restart loop, and in order to stop it i need to do factory reset.
I don't know what to do!!
Now,go into fastboot and flash the kernel(boot.img) and then do a factory reset...this should work...

actually, i just find how to fix this problem.
(i don't know how to flash kernel or stuff like that cause i never did it.)
though i searched the internet and read about the same problem that someone had, and the fix is to cancel the "sync internet" for the google account in "settings -> Accounts and Sync -> Google -> uncheck Sync Internet"
than i can turn on\off WiFi how much i want with no boot loop.
the bad thing is that i needed to do like 4 factory resets until i got it.i think that if it happen that it is possible to clear somehow the storage data via the boot loader and re-configure the google account and imminently uncheck the "sync internet" check-box. and in this case a factory reset is not needed. but it's too late for me
this is the link where i find the solution:

does any one know what this "sync Internet" does in the google account? i

Also the Radio has stopped working. I get message "Unfortunately, Radio has stopped". Can anybody help o restart the radio. Thanks. Dipankar

Thank you. My phone is a dual SIM Samsung SM-700F.
There are 3 reset options - Reset Settings, Reset network settings and Factory Data reset. I did the 'Reset Settings' and nothing much happened. The theme got reset to default. I had to again set Wi-Fi password. The startup logo is as before. Radio is dead. With 5.1.1 I could select the SIM from Pull Down menu option but now it shows only one that is active and to change SIM I have to get into Settings. Do I have to do a Factory Data Reset ?
yes. do a factory data reset and for the "bland samsung logo"that is the new marshmallow boot image if you are not happy with it you can install some other boot image (don't ask me from where).

Settings Has Stopped

I just got the latest Android Oreo Beta update last night and since then I can't get in to my settings. Anytime I try to enter settings from anywhere I get an error that says Settings Has Stopped. I have wiped cache and I entered Safe Mode and the error was still there. Has anybody else had any luck with anything else. I am getting desperate.
Thank You

Conflicts of data.... If you can backup your photos/contacts etc with a good backup app and then do a factory reset.
I can back up my data using Smart Switch correct?
A hard reset did fix my issue. Thank you.

One UI update - accessing recovery menu!

Hi I have just installed the latest update from settings - software update, with Jan security patch but when I turn off and restart holding power and up, it no longer goes to system boot menu which allows you to clear cache or factory restart.
I also have an error once restarted :
pdp back up fail set up wizard.
Any ideas?
Is there a way to reinstall the update or finding another way to clear app partition or am I forced into a factory reset?
thx
Hm, just checked and same here.
Did you try to do that using adb?

No it was a forced update through software update settings. Just done a factory reset (what a ballsache) and its still the same with same error with no access to clearing cache partition.
There is now a requirement to plug in the power before you can access the recovery menu. Works as just tried.
Confirmed by Samsung Members app incident which i logged.
