[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] galaxyYtester:
Definitely seems like it was caused by a physical force outside of the phone, it's not possible for a phone to bend like that by itself under any circumstances. Even the battery exploding would not cause a bend like that, maybe being ran over by a car would? Remember that the S8 is built like a tank, not a single person that I've ever seen attempting a bend test has been able to cause any sort of bend to the frame, let alone bending the phone enough to break the screen.

The smell of smoke is completely understandable in an extreme bend like that, because the bend can damage the battery and cause short circuits inside the phone. I doubt that you can get a refund, because there's no way that damage like that could be caused without an external force being applied to the phone. The only logical conclusions that I can think of are you bending the phone in your sleep (not probable, since you need tools to bend it like that), or someone else bending it. It could maybe be possible to cause damage like that by bending the phone against a table, but it's not possible by using only your hands. You should probably investigate more on who could have done it, very strange
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Namkyeongwoo:
I am not a black consumer or trying to rip samsung off. I have been an loyal consumer of samsung. I have used every Galaxy s series phone so far and had no problem with my s series. Yeah it looks like a car went over, but i did not any car driving around in my room last night. Plus the tempered screen protector on the screen has been no damaged at all.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] galaxyYtester:
Tempered screen protectors can bend a lot more than the display without breaking
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Skander1998:
I'm sorry to say this, and I am NOT questioning your honesty.

But when batteries fail and expand, they release tremendous amounts of heat that would discolor the AMOLED panel and most definitely explode from the force of having to bend the phone and crack it like that.

Both the back and front panels on the S8 are structural and need a tremendous amount of force and heat to part.

External force bent the phone and cracked it. Who did it, why and when is up to you to find out.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Namkyeongwoo:
No arguing with, I am just very disappointed with what happened to my phone over night. what i've known so far, is that most of tempered glass screen protectors are fragile.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] galaxyYtester:
Alright, best wishes to you, I hope you find out who bent your phone and can get a refund :fingers-crossed:

what does being a black consumer have to do with your issue? nevermind, i get it...
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Andrewtst:
1st either you are very tired or drunk and already bend it without your conscious before you put on desk.

2nd your girlfriend is mad with you and purposely bend it and off course she won't admit it.

3rd your staying place had some very anger evil ghost spirit.

Lastly sorry to said I don't think you will get any replacement nor-matter what kind of story you tell, unless they is a video recording proof the phone did it itself.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] TML1504:
I'm lecturing mechanical engineering, physics and product design at university, and I fully agree with the posts above.

Judging by the pictures shown external physical force is the most plausible, if not only possible, reason for such damage!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] hackdrag0n:
Is this a joke thread?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] torickray:
If it is going to explode, the phone will expend instead of bend. Can see there is a pressure point at the volume button. That is not the location of the battery. Everyone can see that is a physical damage. Ur tempered glass will not stick still to the glass. Most likely fell off before the damage done. Someone put it back afterward. You need some CSI to be done.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] ShrekOpher:
You must have some mean roommates, or a nasty GF. there is NO WAY that damage happened sitting on your nightstand Absolutely NO WAY. It's clearly damage from the outside of the phone in, it looks like it was stomped on or hit with a hammer, intentional damage. You need to ask everyone who had access to your room while you where sleeping, becuase one of them purposely trashed your phone. I could go into more detail, but just from looking at your phone it is obvious the damage was done to your phone from the outside.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] cmoG530:
Sorry man, your gf or somebody rekt that phone. I've never seen damage like that just happen on its own.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] bonerp:
Lets just say there was a battery issue here (electronics don't do that to a phone unless the battery had a fault or got fractured) - was there a smell in the room? There certainly looks no tarnishing or smoke damage. Did you have a hangover the following morning?

This is clearly physical damage too the device. The phone was either dropped very hard on the corner or the device was ran over by a car.

I been repairing phones for 5 years now and people make up so many excuses and this is definitely not a battery issue and don't happen overnight when your sleeping.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] sireniankyle:
Pure sarcasm. Either the GF went psycho on it, OP has extreme night terrors, or this was a ploy to blame a "faulty" battery resulting in some kind of payout by Samsung.

Without knowing better and only speculating, I could imagine a non native American English writer meaning to say something like 'black sheep'. In German, there are several references like that, having nothing to do with anybodies color of skin (schwarzes Schaf or Schwarzfahrer). One could compare it to a 'blind passenger' (blinder Passagier) having nothing to do with ones eyesight.

Again, only speculating and trying to put oil into the waves. Got no cards in that game.

[LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gmy:
Hi All,

Id like to start out by stating that I am newb when it comes to android recovery

My V10 was stuck on LG screen with the infamous bootloop issue. I was able to get it to a point where the phone would boot after performing the mobo bake option. The phone booted just fine. I was hoping to create a nandroid backup in an effort to install image backup on a replacement phone that I received. This phone was rooted but did not have any custom recovery installed. I read in some article, that one could use an app called Quick Book [Root] from Play Store, which I downloaded and installed. Shortly after that, I pulled up the menu and selected to restart in quick boot recovery menu. It was taking quite some time, so I figured it was likely stuck doing nothing. Right as I was holding down the power option down, I noted the little android logo pop up and close out.

Upon starting the phone back up, it was stating that it was optimizing 200+ apps and then got in to a loop with the LG setup wizard 'Unfortunately, LGSetupWizard has stopped'. I was able to pull up the menu from top to bottom and get in to settings page. When I go to Application Manager, it is showing that there are no downloaded apps, etc as if the phone was wiped.

I guess my question is, is there anyway to get this back to the state is was in before the installation of this Quick Boot application? Any help would be appreciated.

Things to note:

Tried clearing cache and it had no effect

Phone is currently on 5.1.1

Can get the phone in to debugging mode

I have a titanium backup on installed sd card from g0d knows when

Under storage, it shows about 13gb of misc data (not sure if normal or showing that much as part of the issue)

Thanks

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Pijam27:
Hi i bought the device two days ago and whenever i use it (i start opening Facebook, instagram, WhatsApp and other apps) it gets Pretty warm in the right side or the screen and behind. The CPU reaches 50 degrees and sometimes 55 and the worries me. What should i do? Is it normal or should i return it? I previously had an Honor 7 and it reaches the same temps but it doesnt feel that warm at the touch, it Just gets warm in the bottom left corner.

the temp while i'm typing is 41C, outside its 33degrees C and inside(where i am now) its 24degrees.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] burrzoo:
I do not believe this is normal whatsoever. My S8+ has been one of the coolest-running Samsung phones I have ever owned. You might want to return/exchange it if that is possible.

I have not used/tested with any apps to determine actual Temps but it never gets hot. It gets warmer but not very hot (like my S7 Edge did) when using Gear VR.

Have you done the simple things like closing all apps & rebooting? Clearing cache, etc? Maybe some app is "stuck."

it's up to you

If you're constantly scrolling and opening posts the phone will get warm, Facebook isn't exactly a battery friendly app, but if you're stuck at a post and reading it for a while it shouldn't get warm, it really depends how you use the phone. I can get my phone warm using twitter too. My friends z5 with the sd810 gets toasty.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Pijam27:
Well i dont know what to do... I'm going to return it anyway and see if it gets better. Thanks for your help.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Skander1998:
Mate. The CPU throttles when it reaches 80C. What are you worrying about?

I advise reading your manual, which specifically tells you that the device will heat up with use and the heatpipe is located on the top right section of the phone x)

The reason why it may feel hotter than your previous (?) phone is because the metal rim (and whole body) acts as a heat spreader and the heatpipe connects to it with a thermal pad.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Pijam27:
Okay but the warm feel is annoying.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Majin101:
Reduce your brightness and it'll reduce the heat
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] s4shield:

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Majin101:
Trueee ?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Vcaddy:
Cpu temps keeps spiking up and down on any device that actually has a cpu.

What you need to look for is battery temp and not cpu temps. I consider battery temps a more steady measure of over heating rather than cpu as they dont spike.

Eitherways heavy bad background apps will make any device hot. Now if your just browsing on chrome with no background apps and your device temp ( battery temp ) is around 40c in a 20c room thats when ill be worried and exchange the device.

But hey thats just me

Gd luck !

[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
Clean flash... wipe system, data, and caches, then flash only the ROM without Gapps and verify boot. If it still fails you will need to give us more information of what you were on before, especially any custom kernels you may have tried.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maheshfuture:
I tried.

I installed AOSP, Lineage OS and Ressurection Remix WITHOUT no other custom Kernels with and without installing Gapps. But when I run Chrome ,Maps or Mx Player, it soft reboots itself. And also the internet connnection and calls gets cutoff while downloading files. All Nougat roms that I installed has the same problem. So now I'm running stock rom 6.0.1 rooted and it has not shown any of the above problems. And also the phone lags from time to time on 7.x.x. I am completely hopeless now now. I love nougat. And I'm a big fan of Custom ROMs. Please can you find some other way.
[Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
Sounds like it's time to revert to stock via fastboot and start clean... Also be aware there is a known issue with LineageOS and others based on it that supplementl GPS data is broken, the fix is delete your APN and re-enter it manually without the "supl" APN type.

Already done fastbooting to stock rom. And then tried installing custom roms but that didn't fix the problems.
