Samsung Galaxy S III: My samsung won't charge, and isn't the battery's fault.

Fri, 15 Jul 2022 09:34:53 -0700

My phone was working fine, and charging fine, but when i woke up in the morning and went to check my phone the battery was at 35%. I unplugged my phone, and then plugged it back in. I waited a couple minutes and then when i checked it, it still wasn't charging. I took my battery out and put it back in after 15 min, and tried again... still nothing. So i took the battery out again and took the battery out of my cousins phone (Same exact phone,) and it still wouldn't charge. I tried plugging his phone in with my battery and it worked fine. So, what should i do? Also if i do need a repair, around how much would it cost? Thanks everyone!

Samsung Galaxy S III: Galaxy S3 headphone jack only plays sound through left ear.

Fri, 07 Jul 2017 05:25:20 -0700

I have tried several different headphones in my brand new Samsung Galaxy S III, but sound only plays from the left side of the headphones. I do not wish to return my unit to Samsung or ATT for repair or to get a replacement refurbished unit.

If I push on the headphone jack, the sound will play out of the right ear. Is there a way to repair this?

Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge: Is it possible to replace just the glass on the S6 Edge?

Thu, 28 Feb 2019 00:21:44 -0700

I cracked my glass within 3 weeks of buying my S6 Edge and I was wondering if there is a way to replace just the glass. Not to brag, but I'm a real techy guy and I've done other screen replacements in the past. I did a glass only repair on the s5, and from the pictures I've seen, the lcd is bendable on the edge. Will this still use LOCA glue and a UV light? I've got the tools, I'd just need to buy the parts. The glass is very cheap but the lcd and glass combo is over $200. Just wanting someone else's input before I go into something that could be way over my head. Thanks in advance! :)

Samsung Galaxy S Duos: Power button not working GT-S7562

Wed, 03 May 2023 19:38:05 -0700

I've had !@#$ Phone for a year now and the first time when i had the problem with the power button it just would not turn off my phone, then I did some research on the web and and I came across a tip where you will take out the battery leave it like that for a day and then it will work. To my surprise it did work, for another three months and now it happened again and now I can't turn my phone on now for a week now.

I live in Kosovo and there are not Samsung service shops around.

My question is: Can it be fix? Where? ore any other suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge: "Battery Temperature too low" when charging after water damage

Sun, 02 Oct 2022 09:11:05 -0700

Hello, my Galaxy S6 Edge shows "Battery temperature too low" when trying to charge, doesn't matter if USB or inductive. It had contact with water so I think this might be the reason. I checked the temperature with an app and it always shows -20°C. Does somebody know what to do? I have already repaired some other phones but mostly just Display replacement or something like that. Do you think changing the battery would help? I also read that there's a temperature sensor but I can't find any replacement parts for that one.. Thanks in advance.

Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus: Part of the bottom touch screen will not respond to touch

Wed, 18 Aug 2021 14:01:48 -0700

So my device boots up fine and all buttons work properly along with most of the touch screen, except when I go to enter a password the middle two keyboard lines are unresponsive to touch making it impossible to enter my password. I have wiped my cache partition but am still unable to get a response from part of the screen. Could this be an LCD problem or is this an unfixable hardware problem that will require a factory reset?

I am simply wondering if you can replace just the glass of a Galaxy S8 Plus, or if that is impossible. If it can be done, how does one go about it? I've had the phone for a month and the glass shattered.
