Galaxy Watch 7/Ultra resetting

[SKCrews2024]

The weirdest thing has happened a couple times and now I'm concerned. For no apparent reason, my watch keeps doin a forced reset. I then have to go through the whole process of setting it up again. This time around it completely changed the way my watch is set up. Face, settings and icon order. Can anyone help me understand why this is happening? This thing cost too much and is only 4 months old. 😡

I have experienced the very same thing several times now and it all started right after the last update was performed.   Your post is spot on.

I am right where you are and am experiencing the very same thing with my Watch Ultra. Samsung continues to disappoint!

Same thing I'm experiencing with the Watch Ultra.  For the last 2 weeks, every two days it force resets. I'm over it.  Going to go back to my OnePlus Watch 2.  Sorry Samsung

I am fedup with this garbage Samsung Ultra watch resetting, now on the 4th time. Then, because I am at my Spotiy 5 device offline limit, I have to spend another 15 minutes to go through their support to reset all offline devices - each time, even when I restore my watch my a backup. It must be a S25Ultra issue, but here is the thing, I am about to scrap all of our Samsung devices, watches, phones, fridge, and go elsewhere. This is just plain amateur hour on Samsung’s part.

I've had the same issue on my Watch 7 Ultra and S24 Ultra. First forced reset was after the Jan update and then again a week later. I've replied to a couple other posts here and today I get a message from an admin that my post was a duplicate and that it was deleted. They referenced a solution in 2022 for a watch 4 having connection issues which after reading it doesn't match the forced reset issue. They even threatened to ban me if I continue to post duplicate messages when all three have been unique but replies to threads like this.

I did find the reset cache procedure and tried that first before doing yet another factory reset. It didn't help and I still had to factory reset, but so far no more forced resets. It's only been a week though so who knows.

I've had my Watch 7 for about Four months now.. And in that time.. I had to Reset It Four times.

After/ taking It off the charger.. I get the notification telling me to Reset It.

Well.. This last time It didn't work.. Soo.. I will be going in to T-Mobile to have them take a look at It. 

Anyone else having This Issue?

Samsung watch might keep resetting due to a low battery, outdated software, issues with the paired phone's Bluetooth connection, corrupted third-party apps, incorrect charger usage, or even physical damage to the watch itself; if the problem persists, consider performing a factory reset on the watch and checking for software updates on both the watch and paired phone. 

Potential reasons for a Samsung watch resetting:

Low battery:

This is the most common cause, as a depleted battery can trigger unexpected shutdowns and restarts. 

Software issues:

Outdated software or bugs within the watch's operating system could lead to random resets. 

Bluetooth connectivity problems:

A weak or unstable connection between the watch and your phone can cause resets. 

Third-party apps:

Certain incompatible or buggy apps installed on the watch may interfere with its functionality and cause restarts. 

Incorrect charger:

Using a charger that isn't specifically designed for your Samsung watch could lead to improper charging and resets. 

Physical damage:

If the watch has sustained physical damage, it might be malfunctioning and resetting frequently. 

What to try:

Charge the watch fully: Ensure the watch is fully charged and check if the issue persists. 

Update software: Check for available software updates on both the watch and your paired phone. 

Restart the phone and watch: Try restarting both devices to refresh the connection. 

Check Bluetooth connection: Verify that the Bluetooth connection between the watch and phone is strong and stable. 

Remove unnecessary apps: Uninstall any recently installed third-party apps that might be causing issues. 

Factory reset: Perform a factory reset on the watch, which will erase all data but may resolve software-related problems. 

When to contact Samsung support:

If the issue persists after trying basic troubleshooting steps.

If you suspect physical damage to the watch.

If the watch is still under warranty.
