Hi guys, I went through a very hard lesson recently. I activated Samsung's screen reader and it caused such big problems I could not enter my phone again. I had to go on another phone to access "find my device" to SADLY reset to factory settings. Lost so so much of my downloads, Netflix movies infact everything. So I love reading books and downloaded books again but sometimes I wanna put on my headsets & cook but so scared of the build in screen reader. Please help me out
what it did: when I pressed a button it doesnt press immediately therefore you would press again after a while it suddenly picks up all the attempts u tried. my phone with the screen reader activated went super slow. I then restarted the phone, worst mistake same pattern occured when I tried entering my password. you press a button it takes forever you dont know whether to carry on with the password, delete a letter it's just confusing and the voice during this time seems to follow but not the touchscreen or typing part was way out/slow. if the button u pressed a while ago it comes back with alot of letters guess it was the number of times I tried to make what I typed appear on the screen
Before activating the screen reader I would suggest you soft reset the device then you may activate it, preferably tap the switch once and if there is still a lag please revert.
Please perform a soft reset of your device.
Press and hold the power and volume down buttons for about 10 seconds.
*The device may take a screenshot, however, keep holding the buttons for a few more seconds. This is a soft reset and will not factory reset your phone.
