Do a full backup of your data. Enter into recovery mode and clean data partition. Your phone is now in factory state. What androud are your running?

First make sure the fully charged. Then re-boot the phone. (Turn it off for about a minute then turn back on. IF this doesn't work take the back of the phone and take out the battery for a minute then put battery and back on phone. Turn it on. Hopely one of these will work. If not I would call Samsung help line. Here is the number:1-888-987-4357 If anyone can help you it will be them. They are very nice to work with. Best of Luck, Pastor Wayne Shelton

Most of the apps are used on the phone's internal memory which doesn't seem to be much,that could be your problem

I'm also experiencing freezing, but it happens once every few months. I own two of them. Both are installed several hundred miles from each other and each freezes up periodically.

You are not the only one...mine started freezing up right after it did some factory updates. Had to reboot it :(

Nop. the tools are useless tho. Take a big staight knife and pry on the outer side of the phone while heating and it will be fine.

You would have to "unlock" the phone which would slow it down a lot. All recommendations would be that you DO NOT do this as the performance of the phone is more than cut in half.

Hi Charlene, I too experienced the very same issues you mention. For me, I noticed that the biggest cause for the lag/freezing was MotoBlur. Even if you dont use it, it is constantly sucking up resources. You will have to do a factory reset (make sure you back up your contacts and pics/videos prior!) and when you start your phone again, SKIP signing up to MotoBlur by pressing the menu "button" (the one left of the home button) and choose to skip-then continue as normal. 2. once you see the home screen, go to apps and open up task manager. Whatever apps you see running and dont need constantly "on" (like youtube, media share, maps etc.) simply add to auto-end by checking the box and choosing auto-end. This will help you free up some precious RAM. 3. Install a custom launcher. I use ADW launcher but you can try and install different launchers and experiment to see what works and looks best for you. I now have a very clean and attractive interface without lag and have been freeze-free since. Other tips which helped me: Avoid using a live wallaper, theyre pretty but also a drain on resources. Dont allow apps to auto-update Do not update the music player. Do not use "panoramic-camera" apps Do not keep huge logs of your sms, this stuff can get cluttered especially if you send/recieve a lot of pics. Avoid the Skype app. Enable data but not backround data (settings --&gt; battery & data manager ---&gt;data delivery) this will keep whatever apps you install from constantly running without your input. I hope this helps :)

Hi Heba, If the phone freezes sometimes and can start working again once you restart the N8 I would say that it may be a good idea to either perform a hard reset or re-install the firmware. 1. To hard reset your N8 you should turn it off. Hold down the Volume Down + Camera + Menu buttons and press the power button until the phone vibrates. This will wipe the phone's memory and all settings, turning it back to factory settings. Please keep in mind that this will result in the total loss of any content you have stored on the phone so please backup your phone's files using Nokia Suite before you do this. 2. You should be able to re-install the firmware from the Nokia Suite desktop software. Connect your phone to your computer and start up Nokia Suite. Look under Software Updates and it should show you the current firmware version of your phone. There should be a link that will allow you to re-install your current firmware. Re-installing the firmware should not cause you to lose your data or settings, but I would still recommend backing up your files. Personally, I would probably go with the firmware option and see if that helps. But if it doesn't then you may want to speak with Nokia Care and see if they can do something. FYI - their only repair facility in the US is in Texas.

My tablet froze less than a year after I bought it. There is a reset hole. Try using a straight paper clip. Look for a very small hole and don, t push in too hard.

I have used the phone for several months and have not had any particular problems with it. It gets a little slow sometimes but I could probably fix it if I knew better what I was doing.

The reason is that when your phone notResponding you have to reboot the phone. I believe this is software problem. I regret buying this phones.

depending on 'how wet' it got. try drying the phone body out really well. like a few days. the battery is sealed so should be alright but get a stanf-by just in case. leave the back of your phone open, dray the surfaces with a soft towel and leave it open. only time will tell but start thinking about another phone in the meantime since you don't know how much water got into the interior.
