Anyone having problems with the Samsung Galaxy Stellar touch screen after a screen lock?

My Samsung Galaxy Stellar won't respond from the lock screen, about once a week.
What touch screen issues are others having?
As a workaround, I have to remove the back cover and battery, replace, and turn the phone on.

So far I have had 3 of these phones in as many months.  After about 3 weeks, the phone will suddenly lock up on me, and will either go into a boot loop, or just become unresponsive.  Couldn't even do a factory reset on the first one.  In both cases, I can see activity on the wifi indicator, so it's not like the phone is completely frozen, but you can't do anything with it since the screen is.  I really like this phone, but if this third one does the same thing, I'm going to throw it out the window, and cancel my 7 year old account!

    This is a major problem with Lollipop, but yo said it started 2 months ago.   Several people have fixed problem by removing FaceBook And Face book messenger and then re loading the apps again.   You might want to clear your cache before reloading.  Not sure this is your problem, but worth a try.  Good Luck

  • Is anyone having problems with the battery drains quickly and the iphone4 heats up in use and in charging after upgrading to 5.1.1?

    Is anyone having problems with the battery drains quickly and the iphone4 heats up in use and in charging after upgrading to 5.1.1?

    I have had the same problem but I seem to be getting somewhere to fixing it!!! My battery was going down at 20% an an hour now its 10% with constant use and 5 in standby !!! So improvement all round
    First I did a restore then I drained the battery i started to charge it and when it came on I turned the phone off completely and let it charge to 100% I then left it for a couple of hours on charge at 100. I saw no improvement after 1st drain so I repeated the drain battery and charge steps again with the phone turned off when charging and have seen a very big improvement. I am going to do it again tonight and hopefully problem solved!!!!
    The next issue is iMessage as that's playing up and wifi drop out
    Good luck

  • Is anyone having problems with the stock widget not updating?

    Is anyone having problems with the stock widget not updating?

    Widgets unfortunately have gone by the wayside since Apple introduced the App Store a couple years ago.  No widget has received any official recognition in the Apple listing of Widgets since that time.  So it is entirely possible the widget has gotten redirected.   There are many other Apps for stocks.  I personally like the Nasdaq Quote website since it knows mutual funds and other markets as well.

    Is anyone having problems with the Iphone 4 start button not working

    What is the start button?
    Do you mean the on/off button, or the Home button?
    If either one is not working at all, more than likely there is a hardware problem.

    What a vague and useless question.
    A search of the forums would have revealed issues that others are having.
    Why does it matter though?  Are you having issues?  If not.. why would you care?

    if you press it and it does nothing, it may be broken. did you drop it?
    try pressing and holding the top power button and round home button on the front for 6-8 seconds and you should see an apple appear.. if you do see the apple, the power button worked.

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  It may be worth trying a restart of your Apple TV to see if that allows the ABC app to load:

  • Anyone having problems with the on/off switch

    anyone having problems with the on/off switch. It sometimes does not work, I occasionally have to pull the plug out and replug then hit the button and it goes on?

    Out of the 100+ millions of iPhone, I'm sure there are many people that have that same problem.  If you do, you have a 1 year warranty... take it in before it runs out.

  • Anyone having problem with the iCloud lately

    anyone having problems with iCloud sending from iPad to windows computer within the last week?

    I am having similar problems.  iCloud has been working great between my Mac and iPad, but within the last week, when I save a Pages doc (via my Mac) onto iCloud, it doesn't show up for me to retrieve on my iPad.  All my settings seem to be correct, and there are still plenty of other docs on iCloud that I have previously saved, but these new ones will not show up.  I have plenty of space left, so that is not the issue...

  • Is anyone else having problems with the overdrive app not working right after new apple update

    I am having problems with the overdrive app.  I am only allowed to read about twenty pages of a book and then it tries to load more pages but does not.  I have reinstalled the app but have the same problem. Any ideas.

    Have to talked to the developer? Gone to their site? Do they have an update out for the newer OS?

  • Is anyone having problems with the new Xerox printer driver update from Apple? My 8700S is no longer working with QuarkXPress.

    I allowed a System Update that included a Xerox Printer update. I am running a MacPro 10.6.8 with Quark 8.5.1 and a Xerox ColorQube 8700S.  EVERY was working perfectly before the "update" but afterwards anything sent to the printer from Quark would stall the printer.  I went to the Xerox website and downloaded their Printer Driver and tried again.  Now I could print from  Quark but I can NOT get to the printer window to change the type of paper, etc.  So, the problem still persists.
    Should I try going into Time Machine and trying to find the Xerox Print Driver in the Library folder?
    Should I upgrade the whole system software?  (I wouldn't mind doing that AFTER I get this magazine off to the commerical printer)
    Should I upgrade to Quark 9?
    Any help here would be apprciated.
    Thanks  - Rob

    As a general rule of thumb, I never install updates until I read its info and I am having problems with my current software.  I hide the updates until I need them.  Usually this happens when I update or upgrade my os.  I don't fix what ain't broken is my golden rule.
    It is possible that you need to update or upgrade Quark in order for your newer printer driver to work.  First I would try the following....
    Disconnect all peripherals from your computer.
    Boot from your install disc & run Repair Disk from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
    Select your language.
    Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
    Select Disk Utility.
    Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click First Aid.
    Click Repair Disk.
    Restart your computer when done.
    Repair permissions after you reach the desktop-http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2963 and restart your computer.
    If your printer does not work afterwards, update or upgrade Quark.  If that does not work, contact the printer manufacturer.

  • Is Anyone Having Problems with the newer version of Firefox?

    I still have my older Mac OsXv10.4 Tiger software. I wasn't exactly happy with Safari browser as it would block many sites and were considered incompatible so I downloaded the free Firefox browser (the 2.0 version) of which I STILL have. I'm aware that there is a much newer version and would like to download that, but I've heard a lot of people saying they have been having severe problems with it, but then they have PCs and not Macs.
    So my question is for you Mac users that use Firefox, have you had major problems with the newer version? I'm real hesitant to download if I'm going to have the same problem PC users are having...like constantly crashing. Also would my old Tiger software be compatible? I don't want to upgrade to Leopard.

    Yes. I had problems with Firefox 3.5. The primary problem was very slow or never-ending loading of certain websites (particularly secure sites and sites with many features). I also have had similar, but not as bad, problems with Safari 4. I never had these problems with Safari 2 or Firefox 2. It just seems that with each update, the problems increased for me. I have read the Safari and Firefox forums and tried many fixes with little improvement. I have come to the conclusion that there is some kind of compatibility problem between the latest versions of Safari and Firefox and Shockwave Flash and/or Javascript and OS 10.4, particularly on PPC Macs. I expect there are many who will disagree and I cannot argue or prove the point. This is just my opinion. And I recognize that my problems could be caused by my setup and not by the browsers. By the way, I do not use any add-ons with any of my browsers. Anyway, I got tired of dealing with it and installed the latest version of Camino about 2 weeks ago. I also did a clean install of Firefox 3.0.13. Camino is working out great for me. It is simple and it works. No problems at all. So currently I am using Camino as my primary browser and Firefox 3.0.13 as my backup. I hope this helps.
