[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkenobi69:
I dropped my phone and the screen shattered and fell off. I assumed it was dead, but when I replaced the battery and held the power button, it came to life!? I have my wife's old GS5 that I'd like to restore mine to. Anyone have a link or guide that I could follow that doesn't require changing things on the phone which require the screen?

My photos are safe as they were saved on SD, but I'd like to recover settings for apps (contacts, app settings, save games, etc). It wouldn't be the end of the world if I lost that stuff, but I'd rather have it!

The following link is what I had used to replace the Daughterboard (Micro-USB Port) on one of my Galaxy S5 devices.

https://www.ifixit.com/Device/Samsung_Galaxy_S5

The process for the Digitizer Display is almost the same...

For the Digitizer Display, the guide (within the above link) is probably the best one you'll be able to locate (that also has very helpful images for each step too).

Take your time and be very careful! There's really no alternative shortcuts to perform this process and (to add) I will agree that Samsung didn't make this device very "repair friendly" for the Digitizer Display either. :eek:

I do wish you the best of luck! :thumbup:

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkenobi69:
Are you suggesting that the only way to recover the data is to replace the screen/digitizer? I already have a replacement phone in working condition. I was hoping I could transfer the data over to the new one. I have now confirmed that the phone can connect to the computer in download mode but Kies and Smart Switch both complain that it's not a supported device (neither is the new identical phone). I think if I were able to connect the new phone successfully to a PC software in download mode, I'd be able to use the same approach to connect the old one and recover the files.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkenobi69:
I tried Smart Switch but it wouldn't connect to the phone. I updated the drivers from the menu and it connected to the new one. I switched and it updated drivers automatically but is now connected and backing up!
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bkenobi69:
Since I didn't find a ready made solution, I came up with my own.

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] harmonz:
AccuBattery shows estimate of 2740 mAh on S9 one week old. If true, I'm replacing the phone tomorrow, if for no better reason than a comparison. However, there must be a better way to determine the actual "depth of power" of a non-removable battery. (Actual amount of juice)

Can anyone tell me how to determine that? How do I know I've gotten what I paid for in a battery speced at 3000 mAh?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
Not with apps

Only 100% accurate way would be hooking a test unit up to the actual battery
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] harmonz:
Do you mean by opening up the phone?

I do not see that as a good alternative in this situation.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] harmonz:
Has no one created faux pas benchmarks such as playing a particular Youtube video for 1 hour (or variation) with Google Chrome, with wifi measured signal strength noted, Screen on 100% brightness or measured alternative, and noting any other variables, for various devices?

Could you post any known similar results, compilations?
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] *Detection*:
What I mean is, stop listening to apps for something they cannot possibly measure accurately as it would have to be done with hardware
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] Sunslayer:
If you want more accurate estimate of the battery capacity through Accu Battery - do not forget to go to flight mode first and then charge your phone.

BTW my 1yr old s9 shows ~2715mah (and it actually says it approximate value).
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] harmonz:
Thanks for the reminder. I usually keep the phone off but have not always been vigilant about Flight Mode. Definitely no data, but I have sometimes left WiFi or Bluetooth. With as little activity as I get lately, I had assumed I was not using much if any mAh during the charge.

2715 mAh on a 1-year-old S9 seems impressive. Do you generally try to stop charge at 80% or let it go to 100%?

Do you charge overnight?

Do you generally let power go until the phone notification of charge at 15%?

Thanks,

Marc
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] harmonz:
Comparative test of different recent phones

I noticed that AccuBattery's Estimated Capacity can be tricked into reporting a higher value by having the screen on for a few minutes just before unplugging.

That is discouraging this one from trusting the algorithms for the AccuBattery, as also stated by 'Detection.'

I did run a preliminary test with a few phones.

2 hours run time, in safe mode, airplane mode, WiFi strength ~ -53dBm at a distance of 30 feet. Google Chrome browser, youtube running Battery Drainer 2 video, sans audio, 100% brightness. (I assume the S9 is at 100% when fully to the right and into the red line for a little bit of distance.)

1st phone a 3-month-old refurb with specs battery capacity of 3400 mAh ran about the same time as the S9 spec at 3000 mAh. Which would suggest either the S9 is in better condition or the refurb is in worse condition than originally considered.

I will probably run this again using a movie and audio though I'm limited on the one phone to play video with 'Drive' video player. Hopefully, the S9 can use this as well.

All suggestions welcome,

Thanks,

Marc
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] Sunslayer:
I tend to stop charging at 85% (or around) occasionally to 100% when I forget to unplug the phone. I start charging at whatever percentage I notice it needs charging, sometime 15 sometime 25 sometime 40%

[Samsung Gear S3] Shoot2:
Hi,

After last update, the sensors are not working. I used Netodin to install the lower version but still it comes out that it did not solve the problem either. I guess I should stop looking for the solutions desperately as neither Samsung nor I can do anything about it. Bought this watch from Canada and have been desperately looking and following the forums where people are facing similar issue.

If any of you guys have any lead, Please keep this post updated. Samsung is simply ignoring the issue,
[Samsung Gear S3] adfree:
You could try if Combination Firmware maybe "resets" reinit Sensors...

Samsung has other "priority"... :rolleyes:

As I still not know your Model Name...

So I have NO idea if maybe latest CRK2 do some "magic"... sensor related...

Still I have not killed my Sensors as it seems... So I have no idea how to help...

Still I suggest to increase research "skills"...

where can I find the combination firmware. I installed 2.3.2.4 by following the steps.
[Samsung Gear S3] adfree:
For SM-R760 Combination Firmware for instance here:

https://xdaforums.com/gear-s3/development/rom-samsung-gear-s3-sm-r760-t3746522

This is Tizen 3 CQL1...

WARNING!

This is Service/Factory Firmware... it looks different and so on...

But MAYBE it could reset Sensor problem.

MAYBE untested theory...

Combination Firmware is SINGLE file... only 1 file instead 3...

Simple select in netOdin for instance under AP...

OWN RISK!

Risk to brick is similar to flash any other Firmware through netOdin...

NOT try wrong Firmware... Really try only CQL1 Tizen 3...

And/or BQC2 FTMA Tizen 2.3... is valid:

https://xdaforums.com/gear-s3/development/rom-samsung-gear-s3-sm-r760-t3588082

Suggestion...

A

Try CQL1 FT30 Combination Firmware...

B

Then flash BQC2 FTMA Combination

C

Then you can flash back to Stock Firmware of your choice...

Maybe try CQL1 Stock Firmware from here:

https://xdaforums.com/gear-s3/development/rom-samsung-gear-s3-sm-r760-t3755374

The idea behind this "funny" chain...

Downgrade from Tizen 3 -> 2.3

Maybe Combination fix automatic something... but it is hard to test...

You can try by pressing these funny Icons... somewhere is Sensor test...

So hopefully after 3 times flashing with netOdin... maybe Sensors are alive again.

Sorry, only theory.

Untested...

And not 10000 % risk free...

Good luck.

I have flashed CRB1 FT30 Combination Firmware...
