I honestly think it was the game...i got the tablet to boot into recovery and then rebooted it.so then i started to play the game again and bang blue screen. Same process, reboot into recovery and record....i could not get the tab to just turn on. After the last time i got it back on i have watched 3 hours of straight video and no problems.this was strange i have never had a device do this so we will see what happens.i uninstalled the game to be on the safe side

I'm just wondering if perhaps you are using Nova Launcher. I have had a blue screen 2 times now and on this last one yesterday it coincided with an update for Nova (play store was on auto update...) I managed to reboot with home and power button.

Just chimming in to say me too. Mine doesn't fade to black though, it just stays blue until I hit the power button then goes black and reboots. A few times it stayed blue until I held the power and volume buttons and rebooted like you did. I came here to try and find the stock rom for the At&t 12.2 and happened to see your comment. Nothing I have tried works. I used rom manager to fix permissions but with certain apps it just does not want to run right.

Hey! I get the exact same thing when playing Boom Beach. Im also using Nova Launcher. The screen goes blue, then fades to black and I have to reboot into recovery to get the tablet to turn back on. I havent played Injustice enough to notice it with that game, and I dont see it happen with Clash of Clans, or any other non intensive game. I chalked it up to overheating, but the Nova Launcher bit seems to be a common issue with us as well. Maybe it's Nova?

well i have not used nova on my 907a but i have notice the more farr you go form stock the more unstable the tablet behaves. at this point im just on stock rooted after trying several modes, I will stay like this until IF EVER some one builts a nice room for us.

Blue Screen On SamSung Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2 AT&T

So i was using my 907a playing injustice God's amongst us and right in the middle of play the screen goes blue and then the tablet shuts off. I hooked it up to my charger, no charging lights..this thing appears to be dead. Hopefully my Att insurance Will cover this...it was rooted but only do i could do the sdcard fix....any suggestions...i have had lot of devices this is a first
Just wanted to tell everyone else I'm having the same issue too. This started last week while I was in class using Samsung App Hword 2014 for a class report I made sure to save what I was doing but didn't save the 2nd half of my report. When I got the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH..Last night I was playing Assassin's Creed Pirates and a few hours ago had this Tab crash on me with the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH... Oh I also forgot to say that sometime it doesn't show key pad when you wake up the tablet for some reason I think Samsung needs to roll out an update fix for this.So anyone can get access to you tablet even if your tablet is setup for security key pin.


I hope this helps.

I did a chat with Samsung and they told me to clean my cache go to recovery mode.

power off the tablet, then hold the vol. up home button and power. That brings you to the recovery mode use the vol.button to clear cache and then reboot. I'm still testing it out. Seeing if this happens again but most likely will be returning it because I got a defective Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2 32 gig AT&T..

I recommend register your tablet on Samsung web site and report this I got a clam ID for record on my account. I think Samsung knows about this because they also said if my screen went from blue to black. Mine was stuck on blue and it rebooted.:eek::rolleyes::highfive::laugh:

Same issue I was having. It was really bad after a while. Every few minutes or so. The tablet was unusable. I sent it back to Samsung to be fixed. I haven't had a single crash since I got it back. It seems to be a ATT version issue.

I have the same issue. Maybe due to xposes framework. It does seem to get more unstable after root. I may go back to stock and see how it performs. Then only apply root.

I continue to have this issue about 5 to 20 times a day using any game or app that is resource hungry. Usually the minute I get the BSoD I hold the power button and home button until it reboots. I'm completely stock, no root.

The AT&T version has a flaw that they don't want to admit until you complain about it. I have not had any issues since I sent it in for repair.

FYI - I had the same issue on a brand new, totally stock, 2 hour old Note. I had it for a week and it would blue->reboot at least once per day. I took it back to AT&T and swapped it out. I've had the replacement for 3 weeks now and it hasn't happened once.

OK they closed my ticket... Replaced the LCD on my note and is being shipped back. I will keep this thread updated... I don't think it was the LCD but I could be wrong and that is a expensive repair for them to do just for the hell of it. So hopefully this fixes it.

Interesting. That's not what they replaced on mine. They replaced some part that gets updates from AT&T. They said it wouldn't update and that's what was causing the blue screen crash.
