Samsung Members Diagnostics and Error Reports

Know the difference between running a local device test and sending a support report with optional system logs.

Direct answer

Samsung Members can run device diagnostics and can submit an error report. Running a test checks hardware or software behavior; sending a report transmits your description and any chosen attachments, and can include system log data when that option is selected.

Local test versus transmitted report

Error reportSends a selected problem category and your description to Samsung support.

AttachmentsScreenshots, images, or voice recordings are deliberate additions to the report.

  5. Check feedback later in Samsung Members.
