The touch screen responds slowly or improperly

If your device has a touch screen and the touch screen is not

responding properly, try the following:

Remove any protective covers from the touch screen.

Protective covers may prevent the device from recognising

your inputs and are not recommended for touch screen

devices.

Ensure that your hands are clean and dry when tapping the

touch screen.

Restart your device to clear any temporary software bugs.

Ensure that your device software is upgraded to the latest

version.

If the touch screen is scratched or damaged, take it to your

local Samsung Service Centre.

Your device freezes or has fatal errors

If your device freezes or hangs, you may need to close

programs or reset the device to regain functionality. If your

device is frozen and unresponsive, press and hold the Power

key for 8-10 seconds. The device will reboot automatically.
If this does not solve the problem, perform a factory data

reset. In Idle mode, open the application list and select

Settings
