Fold 3 Restarts When Fold Screen Opens with Wi-Fi On

(Topic created on: 3 weeks ago)

After the recent update, my Fold 3 crashes every time I open the fold screen with Wi-Fi enabled. The phone then restarts, and upon reboot, Wi-Fi is turned off and cannot be switched back on.

I have already performed a factory reset, but the issue persists. However, when I start the phone in Safe Mode, everything works normally. This leads me to firmly believe it is a software-related issue.

I would appreciate any guidance or solutions you could offer. Thank you for taking the time to consider my inquiry.

Best regards,
Christopher

Hi @Thorsoe, and welcome to the Samsung UK & Ireland Community 👋

If your Fold3 is still crashing after you've carried out a Factory Data Reset, the next step I'd suggest is to send us an Error Report, as this will allow our software engineers to be able to receive data logs relating to the problem you are experiencing. This data is anonymised and only held for the duration of the investigation of the report. 

To do this, please follow the simple steps below:  

> Launch the Samsung Members app on your phone. If you do not have this installed, you can download it from the Galaxy Store: https://galaxystore.samsung.com/prepost/000006270410  

> Tap on "Support", located on the bottom right of the Members app.   

> Scroll down and select "Send feedback", tap the pencil icon, and then "Error reports".     

> Choose "Lock-up/restarting".  

> Make sure that "Send system log data" is ticked to help resolve your question quickly.  

> Describe your problem in detail.  

> Change "Frequency" to whatever you prefer.  

> Tap the Send icon on the top right of the screen.  

 You can also follow the guide below, which provides screenshots of the process:

Please do not terminate (swipe away) the Samsung Members application until you are notified that the report has been sent. This can take up to 5 minutes. If you can, please send an Error report as soon as you experience the issue (preferably within 15 minutes, in order for us to get the data that we need).  

An expert from the Samsung Members team will respond to your report as quickly as possible. You will find their response in the section titled "Check feedback you've sent" in the Samsung Members app.

Thank you very much for your quick reply. I followed the instructions and triggered the error, then sent the report immediately afterwards.

Let’s hope they’re able to find a solution to the issue.

Wishing you a great evening!
