Samsung Galaxy S6: Can't disable ultra power saving mode.

Sun, 02 Jul 2023 22:05:17 -0700

After using ultra power saving mode for a while, I charged my phone and tried to disable it but there is a glitch and disable upsm option doesn't appear in the settings.

It seems as if the problem came about when I swapped to Google now launcher from touchwiz and set it as the default app when I touched the home button in upsm.

I've tried wiping the cache partition, rebooting in recovery mode and when I go into doing mode it just says that it's downloading a custom os and nothing happens on the screen for hours

Also can't back up the phone to kies because I can't use it as a USB connection in upsm. I really really need a few voice recordings from the data but the contacts etc is synced to my Google account.

Any advice?

Mon, 25 Sep 2023 02:03:36 -0700

My phone is cracked really bad in the front and back. Now it has a permanent greancolor line across the screen.It also had one black spot and i can't see anything behind that spot. When i use my phone a green screen flickers and then covers my entire screen. while this is happening my screen still works, i can feel the vibrations when i touch the screen. Will replacing the screen fix these problems or do i need a new phone?

Samsung Galaxy S5: Charger Not Recognized, Battery with Yellow Triangle and Exclamation

Sat, 13 Apr 2024 12:39:06 -0700

My wife's Galaxy S5 G900A stopped charging last night. This morning she plugged it in to a different, known good OEM charger and it didn't recognize the charger, stayed at 2% all day. When I got home from work I turned it off and it shows a gray battery and then a yellow triangle with exclamation point. I swapped the battery with one from my phone (exact same phone) and it is behaving the same, but the battery percentage shows 64% which is what my phone showed. I put her battery into my phone and it showed it was 99% charged. I then put the batteries back into their respective phones and now then her phone showed its battery at 99%. I tried cleaning the charge port with alcohol and a toothbrush, then blown out with compressed air, but no change. I tried looking for tests in the diagnostics menu, but didn't see anything related to battery or charging.

The only thing left to try is to reset the phone. It is already on 5.1.1, which is the latest update available. Any other ideas that might fix this problem? If the reset doesn't fix it then I will try a replacement charge port board.
