Phone "Emergency SOS" Keeps Triggering
4.5
Your phone starts a loud countdown to call emergency services while it's just sitting in your pocket.
Symptoms
- Accidental SOS calls
- Loud sirens
- Pocket dialing
Possible Causes
- Stuck power button
- Tight case
- "Call with 5 Presses" enabled
Step-by-Step Fix
1
Disable "Call with 5 Presses"
Settings > Emergency SOS > Turn off the shortcut triggers.
2
Check Power Button
Ensure the button isn't sticky or being pressed by a tight case.
3
Disable "Crash Detection" (if biking)
Extreme vibrations can sometimes trigger false crash alerts.
When to See a Technician
Accidental SOS calls are a major issue for emergency dispatchers; it's best to use the "Hold" method instead of the "5 Press" method.
