The screen is too bright for me at night. I sleep watching streams movies or youtube on the tablet but its always been too bright even on the lowest settings. Does anyone have any ideas of what I could do to lower the brightness further?
[Huawei MediaPad M5  Questions & Answers] thref23:
Do you have Eye Comfort turned on? Eye Comfort works well for me (although it doesn't really dim the screen). If Eye Comfort doesn't work, there are all kinds of apps in the Play Store for that purpose (none that I think work as well as Eye Comfort).
[Huawei MediaPad M5  Questions & Answers] OurFates:
Ive never turned eye comfort off. I honestly dont even notice a difference between it on or off.

My phone got wet as I was showering, but it was for a very short period of time and the water was not even pressurised. However, for the first day the power button was acting crazy and kept triggering itself, both cameras were blocked with water and the mic wasn't working. Now the power button and rear camera are okay, but the front camera is still blocked by water and the mic isn't working for phone calls. Any advice on how to dry it? It's been two days almost

Guys Hi,

After the last update, my watch suddenly stopped counting floors and Altimeter, Barometer is not working. Resetting and rebooting does not help. I have checked permissions also. Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] minervino96:
Hi! I had the same problem.. I had the floor objective to 150 floors, I changed it back to 10 and it started counting again
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Saggy:
Even I'm facing the same issue since the update.. Restarted & even did a hard reset.. still the same
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Huey85:
Hi guys I'm just refreshing this thread..

I'm currently having issues with floor count being widely inaccurate and counting way too many floors. I've noticed this behaviour for a few weeks now. To give an example, a few days ago it clocked up to 252 floors and is still clocking phantom floors even when walking on flat ground.

I've calibrated the alti-barometer app and the barometer reading is fine but the altimeter is completely off. It's reading NEGATIVE values (between -60 and -15m) and I live in a high-rise apartment. I've checked the altitude for my location using other webapps and Android apps and they are reading between 5m and 10m for my location.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] lgxmedia:
Same problems. Altimeter, barometer not working. No sleep tracking, no floors, battery from 5 days to 1... Warranty issue. Samsung changed the matherboard and now working again...
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Huey85:
I also had to get my motherboard replaced. So many hardware problems with this watch. I can't believe Samsung are being so oblivious to them and not acknowledging them.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Vagabundic:
Changed two sensors and one mother board on first watch. Third time when it fails received a new watch. Again changed sensor two times, waiting for third failure and I will ask for money return and buy newest Garmin. Galaxy watch is not serious product.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] congusto:
Same problem here, floor count stopped working and no measurement from the barometer sensor spontaneously, with the floor objective unchanged at 10.

I changed it to 5, just to see if "changing it" would make the difference.

It did, if you reboot the watch after changing the floor objective. :victory:

Many thanks for the tip. I was about to send it back for repair.

Update: since above post (december 6) the barometer sensor stopped working overnight every night I was wearing the GW while sleeping (in "good night mode"), but I was able to revive it with above tip, giving me the opportunity to test different settings to see if I can wear the watch without the barometer sensor stopping. These are my observations:

- After revival of the sensor I can see in the barometer widget when the sensor stopped working.

- I haven't seen the barometer sensor having problems during the day if it works fine in the morning (after a revival).

- A manually started training stops the barometer sensor, an automatically detected training doesn't, although today the sensor stopped 30mins áfter a detected bike trip.

- If I keep the watch on the charger overnight, the barometer keeps working.

- Sleep tracking is intermittent for some reason. It will stop and then continue after an hour or so. The sensor stops when also sleep tracking stops, but doesn't come back "on" when sleep tracking does.

- A reboot before putting the watch in Good Night Mode didn't help to prevent the sensor/sleep tracking problem.

- Disabling detection of REM sleep does not prevent the sensor/sleep tracking problem

- The sensor revives after changing the floor objective and reboot, but watch and phone need to be fully synchronized (sleep tracking/training data) for revival to work.

All in all, I haven't found a setting to prevent this problem. It is clearly a software bug, not a hardware failure. I hope that the new update (R800XXU1DSL1) will solve the problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] marcux88:
Sorry but I received that update and my barometer stop working! With no reason! I try to change the objective but no results. Reset and reboot didn't work either.

[Samsung Galaxy Watch] congusto:
Charging the floor objective stopped working for me as well, so I am getting stuck on this. As soon as I am back home I intend to go back to an older firmware (e.g. BSA4) to see what that does.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Maccyb122:
This might work to fix floor count and barometric pressure.

I found info on the Samsung site about cleaning the sensor with warm water. I tried it in conjunction with something else and it is early days but seems to have worked. I cleaned the atmospheric barometric sensor (the small hole) on the back of the watch by VERY GENTLY using a wood toothpick with sharp tip blunted to loosen gunk, presumably soap, dust etc and then flushing the particles away with warm water. Don't STAB at it, just very gently rub the blunted tip around it using no downward pressure whatsoever. I had 12 floors today, despite doing none, but in the past few hours no more phantom floors have registered and my altimeter reading of 35 metres has stayed steady. Before, it was ranging from -8 to +70m! I hope this may help some people and again I emphasise be very gentle. It may even just need flushing with warm water, but for me there was a solid mass of soap in there. Let's know if it helped anyone. I will report again in a couple of days to see if I was being over optimistic.

[MENTION=10141623]Maccyb122[/MENTION]. Just to understand your situation better, was your watch showing unstable air pressure values or no values at all?

TIA
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Maccyb122:
Thanks for the question. It was showing unstable air pressure.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Maccyb122:
Unfortunately my friend, I have to say no, it didn't fix it. After a day it started acting erratically again. I called Samsung support and they have suggested that the sensor may indeed be faulty. Luckily there is an official Samsung repair centre close to where I live ans and I will be taking it to them early next week for repair or exchange. Ironically a friend of mine did have success by cleaning the sensor, but it didn't work for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] jobrima:
What a pity, have you try to cleaning again?

[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Maccyb122:
I did check it. Used a magnifying glass to look at the sensor grill. It's sparkling clean. Can't do any more. When I get a chance to take it in to the service centre, I'll report back on what happened. The watch is performing perfectly well in all other aspects of health, just the floor count is a problem. My hobby is mountaineering so the Altı-Barometer accuracy is important. Never had a problem with the S3 Frontier. I'm a little bit disappointed. I'm sure they'll fix it.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Maccyb122:
Another update

Change to status. This morning my Altı-Barometer was registering no data whatsoever and reinstall of app and reboot made no difference. It's also completely stopped registering floors. Steps and other sensors are ok. I will be at the Samsung Service centre in about 15 minutes to have them take a look. My guess is that after all the erratic behaviour the sensor has died, given up the ghost, kicked the bucket! Lol
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] jobrima:
Any news? Have you check the status of sensor in test mode?

Enviado desde mi Pixel 3a mediante Tapatalk
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Maccyb122:
Thanks for the question. Samsung service have tested it and yes, the sensor was indeed faulty. They will replace it, under warranty and I should have it back next week. I would urge anyone who is having problems with floor count/Altı-Barometer to take or send it to a service center. Don't wait for a software fix, there's a good chance it's not software. There is a strong likelyhood that the hardware is faulty. Once I get the watch back, probably next week, I'll test it and report back.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] congusto:
I've read too often that after replacement of the sensor the problem comes back after a few weeks. It happened to me as well. My new sensor is now dead. So fingers crossed for you.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Steve One:
Hello all

I've got a watch active 2 and a Galaxy watch and I was noticing inconsistency in the floor count on the Galaxy watch. Well I was wondering why I had a altitude barometer app on the Galaxy watch and not on the active 2. I'm not a climber or hiker so I uninstalled the altitude barometer and lo and behold the floor counts are right on now.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] jobrima:
Hi!

If I understand well, do you mean that uninstalling altitude barometer app does improve the floor count?

Enviado desde mi Pixel 3a mediante Tapatalk
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] Steve One:
It did for me..
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] congusto:
There are a few tricks around to revive the floor counter, like uninstalling the barometer app, changing the floor objective, even activate-deactivate water lock. Sometimes a reset worked, some report they gave to perform a reset thrice. Sine report you have to run the battery empty and restart the watch after 2-3 days. I'm slowly getting the feeling that if you need tricks to get the sensor going or if the floor count gets erratic, you have a hardware issue and the tricks will stop working at some point in time as they did for me. I've tried them all, including going back to older firmware, installing combination firmware to (try to) update sensor hub firmware, and more.

Long story short, my watch is now back for repair the 2nd time. Hope they fix it this time. The firm I bought the watch from its having a 3 times broken = a new one, so that's where I might end up with this watch.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] congusto:
After the 2nd repair my watch is functioning properly again. I think they replaced the motherboard as well. The repair report wasn't very specific, but I got the watch back with a foil on the HRM sensor. I noticed that HRMonitoring is now continuous, not intermittent anymore while training or sleeping. The floor count is accurate. Fingers crossed. My first problems with the barometer started 5 months after buying the watch. Hope it takes a bit longer this time.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] ernani:
I'm kind of disappointed reading all these posts about faulty sensors... I bought my watch 3 days ago and since then I noticed that heart monitoring is not every 10 minutes (as I have selected it to be) but every hour (at best - sometimes every 2 hours). Is this what you mean by intermittent monitoring? I can't figure out if this is the expected behaviour or not, and thus if I need to send it for repair.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] congusto:
The reason for a failed HR measurement you want to rule out is a non fixed position of your watch on your wrist. For a proper measurement your watch needs to rest on your wrist without moving, so make sure the watch strap is tight enough.

To check the sensor itself:

Go to the phone app on your watch, dial *#0*# to enter TEST MODE, scroll down and press HRM, press HRM again and check if the sensor gives a constantly changing value under "Green". If so, the sensor is fine. In the upper left corner a value for your heart rate should appear after a while. If that takes too long, my guess is you have to change the position of your watch.

In TEST MODE you can also check the other sensors, in the Sensors menu. My barometer sensor failed (no value) and didn't pass the self test.

I've been able to revive the barometer sensor for a while, and could trace back it stopped working when the heart rate monitoring also stopped and restarted after a while (where the barometer sensor would remain dead until revived manually) Both are symptoms of a faulty motherboard in my opinion.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] ernani:
Thank you for your reply! All sensors seem to work correctly. I passed all the tests, and every time I manually attempt to take a measurement or perform an exercise (which measures my hr continuously) the measurement gets recorded and seems reasonable an estimate.

The problem is that although I have selected on the watch the setting to measure my hr every ten minutes, the watch does so at irregular intervals (ranging from 10mins to over an hour). One can see that in SHealth on the phone; roughly 24 individual heart rate measurements are presented (not ranges), one per hour, which to me seems useless. My old Huawei 2 watch would take 3 consecutive HR measurements every 10 minutes, which seems more reasonable and useful, as it depicts a more consistent and complete picture of one's heart rate for the entire day. Perhaps this is the expected behaviour though, as the SHealth's setting on Galaxy Watch Active 2 (and I'm translating from Greek so it might be worded a little differently) reads: "Every ten minutes while you stay still".

Could you please check, both in your phone's SHealth app (Heart Rate section) and at your Heart Rate widget on the watch to see if this is happening to you also? (on your watch you see when the last measurement was taken).

Thank you in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] congusto:
The HR measurement on my watch is also set to every 10 minutes and fails often when I'm moving around. For me that's not a problem.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] shouldangelsdie:
for the hr sensor set in 10 min mode the instructions says "every 10 min and if you are in rest" which means if you are moving or training it will not take a measurement.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] tonus76:
I had a problem with the floor counter too and Samsung replaced my sensor GH82-17462A and at that time my watch was working fine. Four days afterthat the floor counter has stopped for the second time. Samsung have replaced MB and now the floor counter works perfect for 10 days yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Watch] vikramdinesh:
I have noticed a strange error on my SM-R805F. The sensor test shows 883m and the altimeter shows 937m at the same location.
