The Long press function of the side button(power button) doesn't work effectively. It only works for a moment when some action is assigned. Then it stops working . It doesn't do anything on long press. Double press works fine. I tried shift reset and safe mode boot. Please let me know if you have a solution.
If the long press on the Side Power button stops responding, even after trying Safe Mode and a reset, please try the following steps:
Check Side Key settings: Go to Settings > Advanced features > Side key. Ensure "Press and hold" is set to your preferred action (e.g., Power off menu or Wake Bixby).
Clear One UI Home data: Settings > Apps > One UI Home > Storage > Clear cache (then check behavior).
Software update: Ensure your device is on the latest software version (Settings > Software update).
Submit an Error Report: Open Samsung Members > Get help > Error reports > Buttons > Describe the issue. Long-press the button when prompted so logs can capture the malfunction.
Your report will help the development team look into it directly.
We are glad to hear that the above steps worked for you and your issue is resolved.
