    <title>topic Re: SmartThings TV remote not responding in Galaxy S23</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;Same exact issue with my Galaxy S10 (Android 12). Latest SmartThings App and Latest Bios on the TV. (QN50Q7FAAFXZA). Was working yesterday Aug 02, but just started freezing up today Aug 03.&amp;nbsp; Did the standard (force stop/clean cache, force stop/clear data, and finally a full up removal and reinstall)&amp;nbsp; Need to say the SmartThings app works just fine with no problems, it's the TV remote that is freezing.&lt;BR /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BR /&gt;There is a very quick error that flashed by, something about an error while downloading the driver. I suspect there is something wrong with the plugin used for the remote, or it might just be missing?&amp;nbsp; The only button that seems to work is power, any other action locks the app hard. The SmartThings PC app works just fine&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Adding some more info:&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Now when the remote app launches from SmartThings it has the original popup for "Activate TV sensor" Nothing on the screen works, Not "Later" or "Try it", nor swiping.&lt;BR /&gt;Back "&amp;lt;" clears the popup, and The customize scrolly bar scrolls.&lt;BR /&gt;Clicking that brings up the customization interface, but nothing can be moved. Again, just the lower "&amp;lt;" back works.&lt;BR /&gt;Three dots brings up Edit/Remote options/How to use. Again, only &amp;lt; works to exit this.&lt;BR /&gt;Netflix, Samsung TV Plus, Prime Video, and Youtube buttons work!&lt;BR /&gt;Also found the "click to search" button works. the one with stars.&lt;BR /&gt;the "123" button works and toggles between layouts. But no other button on that number screen works except "123" to return.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Finally, if I back out to the Television screen.. It's all wedged up. Only &amp;lt; works to get out.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;This really smells like a software issue with the remote plugin. Like a broken library?&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Next edit:&lt;BR /&gt;Went to SmartThings Labs and added the Bluetooth Keyboard. Then paired with the TV.&amp;nbsp; That method works just fine, especially for browsing and enables the touch mouse or button mouse. Also works for the keyboard shortcuts I have tried.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
