So about 2 hours ago, my phone notified my that it disconnected from my Galaxy Watch. When I looked at my watch to see what was up, it had a black screen that says "Galaxy Watch Rebooting..." and flashes that on the screen every 5 seconds or so.
Neither button on the watch seems to do anything, and it seems to be in this endless loop. Anybody had this happen before? Thanks!
There is an update going on right now, and if you have by chance enabled auto update on auto wifi maybe it got installed halfway and had a problem?

Can you try pressing the HOME/POWER button 3 times "quickly" while the Galaxy Watch is rebooting (when you see the rebooting text on display). And see if it enters download mode.
If it does then all is not lost.

I was talking on the phone and BOOM it resets.
It started reloading and can't! WTF!? It just gets caught. The Samsung logo comes up and then the darkside boot animation (been running this rom for a few weeks). Then it blacks out and does these intermittent vibrations like it's trying to boot but just stays black.
When I take out the battery and put it back in, it attempts to load itself without me touching any buttons. After the boot animation it goes black and does a single vibration that pulses every other second.
I've changed the battery several times, plugged in, unplugged, everything I try can't stop this.
I attempted to get it into recovery. After I get it there, it resets within seconds and puts me back to the same place. There is no way to get into download mode as it goes into this weird loop as soon as I plug the phone into USB.
Ever heard of this? What do I do?
Your explanation sounds like a hardware issue. your power button is being pressed and held without you doing it.
1- is the phone in a case? take the case off.
2 - if no case, did you get the phone wet? somehow the power button connection is being activated.
3 - power button is stuck.
Possible solution - remove battery then press and release the power button several times.
Let me know if that solved the issue.

ok so it got a bit wet, then started rebooting randomly once or twice (when i say a bit wet, it was some sticky kids medicine)
it stopped doing that but the power button was a bit sticky so i applied suction to get any residue out of there and the button stopped sticking.
but now its on a reboot loop.
it goes to the gt n7100 screen, then goes off then back to the n7100 screen.
ive tried going into download mode, but it gets to the "warning custom OS" screen, i press volume up and it just restarts again.
ive tried plugging it in to charge and it brings up the battery icon and a circle wait timer then after 10 seconds or so it flashes again to the wait timer (which is not turning)
what else can i do to make it work? is there not a pin button for factory reset anymore?
It got wet. So it's not a software based problem.
Return it to service center and see if they can fix it.

After charging my Moto 360 today, it is stuck on a white screen displaying "Android Wear has Stopped" and an OK button. Clicking the OK button refreshes the screen, then displays the same message. I tried holding power to reboot the watch several times, but it defaults back to this white screen immediately upon rebooting.
Any suggestions?

Edit: FIXED
Very weird. I left it on the charger, and started trying to cycle the power (holding the power button down until it restarted). After the 4th time of cycling the power, it let me in to the system menu, and I was able to "reset" the device. Fixed, but still no idea what caused it.
turn off 360
uninstall wear and moto connect
reboot phone, reinstall apps
turn on 360, and connect it
No luck. Tried the above., then tried rebooting the watch with the phone turned off. Nothing seems to work.
The watch literally boots directly into this error screen immediately after showing the Android Wear splash screen.
Just happened to me. I also rebooted a few times using the side button then it would let me into the menu and I could do a reset. Weird.

Problems with my Samsung Galaxy Tab S 8.4 SM-T705:
1st: October 2014
2 weeks after buying, my tablet's battery drained overnight from 45% to zero. Next morning, I turned my tab on after charging to find out that the Tab starts but without any Samsung GAlaxy Tab S logo or Samsung Logo and the Screen has turned green, rendering it difficult to read in auto brightness mode or low brightness mode.
I restarted the device 2-3times and the device started working normally. This was my 1st device restart. I never used to power off the device before.
In 1st 6months, this greenish display problem n logo problem occured 2-3times, and i ignored it, because, it used to get resolved by itself with restart and I had no service centre in and around 50km to my work place.
2nd: January 2014
My device all of a sudden stopped working.. actually hanged.. I managed to turn it off but failed to restart it.
Later I realised that the device has restarted, but the screen was not responding when the screen blinked for a moment with the opening of book cover.. and the back cover of device was warm..
Googling taught me the way to access recovery screen n I opened recovery mode with "power+vol down+home key" and pressing vol down in recovery screen to restart tab.. again the tab started working fine..
3rd: Lollipop update: May 2015
I did Lollipop update. The device was smooth to operate at first. But gradually, i noticed that unlocking the tab failed to light up the display everytime, just the soft keys lighted up. But one day, the device freezed with no response from touch screen. I was unable to switch off the device also.. I had to drain the battery by playing music using S voice to turn the device off. "power+vol down+home key" too was not working.
On googling, I learned to reset device with "power+vol up+vol down" keys pressed together. finally the device restarted, but the device used to hang occassionally.
Googling let me know that i need to factory reset device upon firmware update for normal functioning, which i didn't do after update. so, I backed up my device, uninstalled many apps to make the device run a bit smooth and did a factory reset.. Resetting didn't improve the situation much, but now, the device display failed to light up on a regular basis on unlocking most of the time..
Now the situation is that, the device turns on, finger print scanner works, all apps n everything working, but display remains black, and touch screen is not responding.. using sidesync, everything on Tab can be accessed via laptop.
Tricks tried:
1) Factory reset
2) power+ vol up+vol down
3) power+ vol up+home key
4) power+ vol down + home key
5) Power off using sidesync and then restart
Results: All failure. Everything works but the display never lights up normally..
Plzz help....:crying::crying:
Bump. I'm starting to have similar problems with my SM-T800 running 5.0.2. I open the cover and the device fails to turn on. I press the power button and the screen stays black but the notification bar turns on. I can shake the crap out of the device and the screen stays black but I can see the notification bar flicker. Driving me batty.
If i had any problems like you guys, I would just return it to the place i bought it, for a refund or replacement or even a repair, post it to the service centre if it`s too far to travel too.
You problems sound like battery and or loose connector inside your tablet, it happens frequently on Samsung tablet for the connectors to come loose, if the tablet is dropped or twisted, no outside damage might be seen.

Hey there,
So I had my Galaxy S tablet completely bricked. No boot loop. No "stuck on logo" issue, just completely off and nothing was turning it on. I found a thread here that had all of the different button combo options and I tried them all until finally getting this thing into download mode. When prompted I pressed the volume down button to exit download mode and let the tablet reset automatically as was to be expected. Or at least enter the charging screen while remaining powered down. I'm plugged into my PC and after pressing the volume down button I was taken to a screen with the green Android logo and the text beneath reading "Downloading.../Do not turn off target!!" as well as some technical info in the top right corner informing me that I am in Odin mode.
It has been on this screen for over 15mins now. How long do I have to wait before the device will either shut down properly, restart, etc? And what exactly is being downloaded even though I exited download mode.
Thanks!
