[Q] Tab 3 T211 Cannot Access Setting - Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My tab started acting up today. Everytime i click on the setting icon, it goes straight to the home page or sometimes it would attempt to load the setting page briefly and then return to the home page. The tab has the stock OS and it has never been tampered with.
Please help as it is driving me nuts.

Home and back button issues

Hi my friend got a problem with his htc desire. If i press home button it will send me back to homescreen but with htc logo and loading of homescreen before that, like when you use helixlauncher etc. And the problem with back button is that when i hit the first page he loaded it wont send him back to homescreen but to other pages he visited before like calls and settings. And btw what is the number for extended settings ...*#*#....

Ok i got that number it was *#*#INFO#*#*
Anyone?
Looks like maybe same problem I got with mine Menu/Search buttons.
Mine Menu button acts like Home and Search acts like Back button.
But if I "hit it fast and soft" then it will work as it should be. Mine guess is the buttons have some glitch and need to be repaired.
Im sending mine Desire in for service and hopes I get it back all in one piece.
This isnt the same, this seems to be a software problem. I guess. (Because of constant loading of homescreen and going further back than only one aplication)
My friend installed Opera Mini and all issues dissapeared. Well, lol.
got the same problem. tried rebooting multiple times, installed Opera Mini as you suggested but the problems still comes up. it's really annoying when I have to wait whenever I want to go to homescreen from any application :/ damn. any clue how to solve this?
it started today, didn't have that problem earlier.

Tilt 2 - Windows 6.5

The stocks option that comes with Touch Flo (ATT Tilt 2) gets hanged. This happens only when i select the first option / stock available in the list.
After 20-30 minutes, it comes back to normal..
Any inputs ????

Iam looking for some expert advises....
thanks in advance
You haven't described the issue well enough for me to understand it. Does just the stock tab hang, or does the phone phone freeze? Any error messages?
you touch update now on screen. Then the details on screen gets updated.
Now you select the top stock or the last stock to gets the updates of that specific stock.
this is when hang happens........

[Q] Big problem after volume fix!

Hi all,
I purchase my Samsung Galaxy Nexus from 3 (Three) UK Store last Thursday. It has been faultless bar the odd hang which taking the battery out has resolved. Im using it on Orange.
However, this morning I picked up my phone and was notified I had the volume bix fix update.
I downloaded and installed the update and all was well for about 20 minutes.
Then my phone started going crazy!
I think its something to do with the screen as it keeps popping up the google search bar and flicking through some options, then the screen stops responding.
Sometimes the phone flicks between home screens partially and make them jiggle!
Locking and unlocking the phone gives me 5-30 seconds of normal use, then the phone goes crazy or just doesnt respond.
Ive turned the phone off and on, removed the battery and even reset it this evening.
It doesnt do it ALL the time, and whenever I try and do it on queue, it doesnt!
Luckily tonight I got video of the phone going crazy.
Can anyone help?
The phone is bog standard, ie no roms/roots etc.
Should I take it back or is there something I can do?
Also, since ive just reset the phone, ive had to set up my mail. Once the phone behaved I put in my account details and then it started popping up the menu button at the top of email, ie to change folders or accounts etc. Deffinately seems to be something with the top of screen.
Thanks

Please check the video out.
Maybe download the original shipping rom from Google and fastboot the image onto the phone and see if the behaviour continues.

This.
There's links to the original roms with or without the volume fix in place which can be found on the development section. I used this to update my gun and its working just fine. I'm also on Three UK and the reason I did this is because even though the volume bug doesn't affect us three users I still like being 100% up to date.

Galaxy tab 3 7.0 doesn't boot correctly

Hey.
This is my first time at this site and I am not sure if it's the best place to post this. I searched for solution but didn't find it anywhere.
I have a galaxy tab 3 SM-T210. I installed crash rom succesfully and it worked great, but it didn't have the samsung boot animation when i booted it. It wasn't a problem until last night. I downloaded a couple launchers from play store and it got a little laggy. Then I went to bed and didn't look at my tab until the next evening. The screen remained black after I pressed the lock button. Then I put it to the charger, and still nothing happened. I tried to reboot it and it showed the normal "samsung galaxy tab 3" but after it, no boot animation. Usually it worked when I pressed the lock button after like 5 minutes, but now it didn't do anything. It didn't go to recovery mode or download mode. Whenever I try to boot it, there is only the "samsung galaxy tab 3" text but after it the screen remains black. It can't do anything but display the start of the boot animation.
Any tips on fixing this?

Problem with zenwatch

So after having not used my watch for about a week I've had issues. Right now my screen seems to be stuck loading and will not connect to my phone...I have tried restarting it and always goes straight to the screen with 4 circles that are moving. Any help would be great....my first thoughts were that my watch is updating but I have heard nothing about an update for the original zenwatch. Thanks for any help.
Turn off watch. Turn back on and immediately swipe from top right to bottom left of screen. Follow directions on screen to wipe data/factory reset. Re-pair with phone.

Thank you. So I did this and then rebooted, it still goes to the screen with animated circles. How do I repair with my phone after this? Thanks again any other steps I should have done on the recovery screen?
How long did you leave it on the circles screen? It could take up to 5 mins for it to boot after wipe.
Next step would be to install the latest system image. See my thread in Zenwatch Android Development.
