Galaxy watch stuck in reboot mode

KLT5150 · ‎25-05-2023

Greetings. Last Sunday I went for a swim with the water lock on. After the swim my screen went dark. I placed my watch on the charger that evening hoping that the battery had died, although I had changed it the previous evening.

Today I noticed my watch had turned on and was flashing Samsung Galaxy Watch Active Rebooting. I followed the rebooting instructions for a hard reset and nothing. I depressed the back button and got another screen.

Has anyone ever encountered this issue and successfully resolved it?

Thank you.

Difficult to make out the display message.
Look up the watch recovery method, try to reset using it.

Hey mine just did the same thing after an afternoon at the beach. I had it in swim mode and was only in the water fot like 30 mins max. Was working fine til i went home and put it on the charger and that same error message came up. I took it off and the screen was off. I manually rebooted and it was fine. I put it back on the charger and it had the same error message. What ended up happening with your watch after this happened. I dont want to put it back to charge yet. I still have 73% battery. I feel like the charger is whats messing it up.
