I've been searching the internet for answers on my problem. All of them are the same but what's happening to my phone is somewhat different. You see, it freezes randomly. Or sometimes will restart. When im charging it will also freeze. The weird thing is if im charging my phone while it is turned off, it will hang at the big battery (that is being filled screen). Sometimes it will hang at the battery with lightning. Sometimes it will freeze on some percentage (even at 0%). Also if im using the phone, as im browsing the internet scrolling up and down, as soon as my thumb leaves the screen (for about 5 seconds) it will freeze. Ive tried resetting to factory settings. Tried different chargers. Even samsung has reinstalled a fresh OS. Im using samsung galaxy s6 G920FD (duos). Couldnt find any firmware for duos thats why i cant flash a stock firmware. Havent opened the back panel yet.

Hello my name is cameron,
recently i bought a Samsung galaxy S mobile phone and it has recently started freezing during calls, the call will stay active but my phone will have to be hard restarted (removing the battery), the screen will just go black, also the battery runs down slowly even when its plugged in and switched on, it eats away the battery a percent every 30 seconds when its unplugged which gives it a a run time of less then an hour, i cant cope with it anymore, its getting slower every day, the battery life has gotten ridiculous, any ideas?
thankyou for reading this and i hope you will get back to me soon.
I would start with a factory reset.
tried it, hasn't made a difference, i know now its a hardware issue just checking with you guys in case this has happened before, thankyou anyway.
Hello there xda guys,
I got this galaxy grand 2 in my drawers for about 6 months, and decided to re-try everything up.
Issue:Updated to kitkat firmware, installed everything, battery was about 75%, it let me swipe few times on my homescreen, and boom random restarts.
Random restards occure everywhere, such as:Recovery, download mode and normal booting. As it means, i cant reflash the software, nor i can hard/soft reset the device or even normally recharge the battery.
It is a very strange bootloop.
I also mention, this device hasn't been dropped, gotten wet or any moisture things between or on it.
Any tips how to fix it ?
Up!
I bought a used GS6 a few days ago and several times the phone has either randomly rebooted, froze up, black screen, laggy etc. Several times when this has happened it appears as though the phone is still on but there is a black screen. Other times the phone just shuts completely off as far as I can tell. When this happens sometimes I can power down with pwr+vol down and get into the service screen. Other times I can't do anything at all with the phone for several minutes. In all cases when I plug it into the charger and let it charge a while it seems to come back to life.
At first I assumed this was a software problem, but after 3 data factory resets that does not appear to be the case. The problem crops up almost right away after the reset.
Then I noticed these issues always seem to start happening when the battery level gets down to about 65%. This is consistent. I can find no other consistent reason why these problems happen. When the phone is fully charged I don't seem to get these problems.
Any ideas what could be the actual problem (bad battery, bad main board, bad...) and any solutions? Thanks in advance.
I have a P900 that was left in a drawer for 2 or 3 years, never getting charged even once in all that time. Turning it on, I immediately realized something was wrong because it took forever to boot. The lock screen was so slow that the entire machine locked up for a few seconds, scrolling between pages on the launcher stuttered hard or locked up and everything else with the machine was generally the same. The web browser is unusable, even typing in a URL locks things up. The device is unusable.
So I thought the battery was obviously damaged, even charged at 100% it would be flat for sitting for maybe 2 hours with the screen off. I tried several cycles of charging to 100% then discharging and back up, but nothing seems to help. I don't have much money so I took at stab in the dark and got a cheap battery from ebay and it didn't help. I don't know if this battery is new, but it does seem to hold a charge like the device did when it was new but it's just still so slow that you can't use it.
However, one thing that I've noticed is that apps that don't touch the storage seem to work OK. I have a Spectrum TV app that once it starts up seems to be okay, but not great. Netflix seems to be okay as well after starting up. They both stutter a bit and rarely freeze. I don't know if this is relevant at all.
I'm at a loss of what else could be damaged or how to fix this. I'm in the process of cycling this new battery up and down, though I don't know if this would actually help. I just don't know how to diagnose this problem.
Okay, the problem was the battery, it just took a few hours of charging. I guess now that it can see it has a fully functioning battery that it's running as it should now. Android really should give you an error message about that instead of just slowing the whole thing down to a crawl, leaving you scratching your head.
This strange thing happened to me also.
I was given a tablet that was not in use couple of years. It takes about one hour on charger to start booting at all, I was thinking that it don't working at all.
Then it sits on Samsung Note Pro logo about 15 minutes, then logo changed to Samsung and it took about 15 more minutes to boot in home screen.
Then i realized that it's very slow and unresponsive, I charged it to full and reset, but it's remain the same, very sluggish.
Tried everything, reset it couple of times, flash rom with Odin, nothing helped.
After couple of charge-discharge cycles it starts to work like new!
I would never have thought that the battery could do that, but there it is.
Hi guys
a few months ago, my samsung galaxy s7 edge's battery started to charge slower than usual. Whereas before it would take about an hour to fully charge, now it would take 6 hours or more. I continued using it. A few weeks ago skype app started acting up. When I would open it, it would close automatically. I continued using the phone. Then last week I was using this app called talkatone. It's an app that gives you a second phone number. As I was talking to someone on the app, my phone froze and I had to force restart it. Now the phone would go to the black screen that says samsung galaxy s7 edge in white font. Then it would just restart over and over again. I finally got it to go to the home screen after many tries. Everything was fine but then when I was texting someone phone froze again. Now when I try to restart it, it goes to that black screen that says galaxy edge in white font. Then it goes to the next screen where it starts drawing the word SAMSUNG one letter at a time. but it gets stuck somewhere here. it draws S A and then it freezes. or it draws S A M and then it freezes.
based on these symptoms, do you think it's the battery? or the operating system is corrupt and needs to be reinstalled? or something else? is this fixable?
Replace the battery and go from there.
It's long overdue...
