Hello. I'm Jihoon, a 30-something office worker commuting from Namyangju to Gangnam.
This morning (Dec 17th), I broke out in a cold sweat on the bus to work. Suddenly, a pop-up saying "Samsung Account keeps stopping" started appearing like crazy. Even when I pressed OK, it kept coming back, and I couldn't even open the settings menu.
For a moment, I thought, "Did my motherboard die? My contract isn't over yet!" I went dark because I had to contact my clients immediately, but my phone was a brick.
For those of you who are panicking and searching right now like I was, here is a surefire solution that will save you from taking a half-day off to go to the service center.
▶ Check Detailed Solution Guide1. It's NOT a Hardware Failure (Relax!)
Conclusion first: Your phone is not broken.
This is a software error caused by a conflict between the Microsoft OneDrive app installed on Galaxy devices and the Samsung Account system, which started yesterday (16th). When I checked the Samsung Members community, there were tons of people complaining about the exact same symptoms as me.
2. The Solution: Delete OneDrive App
You don't need to do anything complicated like clearing the cache. (You probably can't even enter settings because of the error pop-ups anyway.)
The fastest and most certain way is to delete the OneDrive app that is causing the conflict.
- Find the cloud-shaped OneDrive icon on your home screen or app drawer.
- Long press the icon and tap [Uninstall].
- Restart your phone.
I deleted it with half-doubt, but as soon as I did, those terrible error pop-ups disappeared like a lie. I can enter settings, and Samsung Internet works fine too.
3. Essential Office Software Tools (Must-Have)
While you are fixing your phone, make sure your work PC is optimized too. Here are some essential software tools I use daily for work efficiency.
4. Conclusion
I use OneDrive for work backups, so it's a bit inconvenient not to have the app right now. But it's better than having a bricked phone, so I deleted it for now. I'm sure Samsung or Microsoft will release a patch update soon.
If you were planning to run to the service center during your lunch break thinking your phone was broken, please try deleting OneDrive first. It will be solved in 1 minute!
