FULL STORY ======================================================================Refresh Get notified of updates 2026-06-10T11:54:01.504Z A temporary workaround While many on the TechRadar team are getting different "something went wrong" error messages, there does seem to be one temporary solution to the problems. Immediately typing the same query into the Gemini chat box seems to get it to work. That's not something we'll want to be doing all day, but it is a short-term workaround while Google irons out the problems.

Right now, Google is reporting that "all systems are operational" on Gemini, so hopefully these issues will be short-lived. Reports are on the rise (Image credit: Downdetector) We first notice the Gemini issues on the TechRadar
team, with many of us experiencing error messages or simply being kicked back to the prompt screen. And according to Downdetector, we're not alone with reported issues now spiking there.

We've experienced a range of error messages, from 'error 1099' to 'error
1076' (a personal favorite of mine), which is seemingly a "handshake or initial connection timeout error" (according to Gemini). Yet right now, there are no official problems on the Gemini status page. It'll be interesting to see if that changes soon if the reports continue to rise... View More You
