Posted: 18:25 - 23 Nov 2019 Post subject: Samsung Galaxy s8 Problems |
|
|
Hi guys, I hope you can help.
I have this wretched brick of a phone called the ' Samsung galaxy 8' I have had this phone for the last two years, and has never given me any problems ............except for the time that it went all slow and stupid for a whole week ...... and the time the screen stopped working, so I took it back and had to get a new screen installed, and the time that it kept restarting itself...even when you where in the middle of a phonecall and the time........oh sod, I can't go on
My amazing phone has decided to develop a new ....er .....feature .
You basically cannot turn the damned thing on. You assume that the thing has run out of juice, so you plug it in, and the thing starts to charge, but when the charge indicator comes on, it says the battery is at 50% or so. You them unplug it from the charger, then immediately turn it on, and it works for about 10 mins, then it dies for no apparent reason, you have to plug it in, charge it for about 1 min and then the battery status on the charging screen now says it is at 80%, so you unplug it.....and you try and turn it on, and the blue home screen comes on, but the battery indicator to the top left now only says it has 5% left in juice.
Some times you charge it , and the blue start screen actually comes on and says it is 80% or so, but othertimes after 2 hours of charging, it is at 5%, so you have to put the thing on the charger again, despite the fact it was already charged for 2 hours before. I got a new battery a year ago as last year it stopped working completely, and someone in a tech shop said it was a dead battery so they replaced it , and it worked for a year.........until now.
any ideas what is wrong with this? I am tempted just to hit it with a hammer and be done with it, but before I take it back to the repair shop where the guy who looks like he has comsumed the worlds supply of crystal meth says the phone is rubbish and has to charge me £60000 pounds to fix it, is this a problem you guys are aware of, and if so, can it be fixed easily? ____________________ My wife asked me to get her something that goes from 0-100 in under 5 seconds for her birthday. ......................I got her a bathroom scale. |
