TabletsThe latest update T500XXU2ATK3 (EUX) on the Tab A7 SM-T500 renders the tablet unusable since it makes the touch screen stop recognizing inputs intermittenty for a few seconds every time.
This issue appears after updating via OTA from T500XXU2ATJ6 (a 300mb update), doesn't get fixed after a factory reset, but also happens on a brand new install of the whole T500XXU2ATK3 firmware right from the first screen after boot where I have to choose a language.
After reinstalling T500XXU2ATJ6 the tablet works perfectly, so it's not a hardware issue.

TabletsHow did you reinstall T500XXU2ATJ6?
I want to go back to an older firmware as well. I'm having black screen issues while watching full screen video. @RobP3

TabletsI've sent you a message since I'm not sure if you can talk about certain tools in here. (even if you're not altering the OS at all)

TabletsThanks for your post and pm!
My tablet is back to normal now after downgrading to T500XXU2ATJ6. I can watch fullscreen video and play games without the screen flickering to black!
