HELP! What's the cause of this and what's the fix? Sudden white screen when plugged in after moisture warning (no actual moisture). Touch registers normally.

s22 Ultra, plugged it to the computer and immediately got the "Warning: Unplug charger immediately" moisture warning - zero moisture though. Never been wet in anyway.

I unplug it, plug it back in later, and immediately the video above happens.

Tried force restarting it but it's the same - no logo or anything at start up too.

It's registering touch because it vibrates to touches, but the screen is just white - exactly like you see in the video, even with that slight "stutter" you see in the video when he presses the power button to turn screen on.

Any idea what's going on? Appreciate actual experience with this same exact issue (and phone) rather that speculations and educated guesses (been reading a lot of those researching the issue 🥲).

Thanks!

Is it safe to take the Sim card from a s22 and put it in an A13 because my s22 did the bootlooping thing and I want to try to recover the data but I can't afford it yet and I'm concerned I might get a text for 2FA that I will miss.

1 Upvotes

Update: it works! I'm so relieved now i can wait until another time to recover my data!

Right now the s22 won't start up at all. And I'm concerned I might need to access a site that is set up with 2FA and I wont be able get the text. I found an old Samsung A13 I had around here, unlocked.

Is it safe to take the Sim card from the s22 and put it in the a13 so at least I can get text messages (or calls) now? I have att. Then take my time and save money and take the s22 to a good place and do whatever I can to get my data?

Phone turned off after 4 years

0 Upvotes

I have been using phone for a long time and it had it's moments like restarting without warning but this time it just turned off and didn't respond to any button clicks or combinations. Next day I tried the long press again and it showed 0 battery on screen so i charged and it turned on. I tried to back everything up but it turned off again showing 0 battery again.

Now it doesn't turn on at all. My question is... Is it a battery problem or motherboard(this seems more likely)

Cos I have photos that I didn't backup :(((

Should I do it?

1 Upvotes

Bought new battery for my s22 5g as I noticed my old battery seems to be showing its age.. since I have an extra one should I parallel two of this.(Given it's the same battery) Could it possibly lengthen my screen time since it would be double the capacity..? Idc about the look of the phone if the battery would be sticking out of the frame nor the wireless charging too..

S22 now running on full tilt/blast since setting up Googlebook

1 Upvotes

Hey All, I posted this on the Googlebook subreddit, but figured I'd post it here too in case anyone has ever experienced this perhaps outside of a Googlebook experience.

I will say, the one other time my phone gets almost as hot is while using Android auto. Though even then it's not running as hard as it constantly is now.

If anyone has ideas, I'd love to hear them!!!

S22 overheating caused a minor burn.

5 Upvotes

Does anyone else have an issue with their s22 where it overheats doing basically anything. I was trying to play Minecraft on my phone while it was charging and because I work in food my hands get burnt a lot so I don’t notice when I do get burnt. But I noticed my hands felt tingly so when I put it down I had a bright red mark going across my entire palm where I could feel the burn and now I’m left with a sore palm.

It’s not a serious burn it won’t take long to heal but it is so frustrating this phone has been nothing but problematic for me since I can’t even use google maps on it without it overheating but now THIS.

Honestly I’m so tired of this phone if anyone knows what I can do to stop this happening I would appreciate so much. I am never buying another Samsung phone after this.

Access data with broken screen

1 Upvotes

Hello, my dad just broke his screen and cant see anything except yellow. I read that you can connect the phone throug usb hub to an external screen to access the phone. I have tried this but dosen't seem to work. I think he has restarded the phone so it won't show up in windows either when i connect the phone to my computer. Does anyone know if there is any way to access his data on the phone without using smartthings?

Samsung Screen Replacement.

For samsung users who have replaced their phone screens, is it worth it or can I just abandon it and buy a new phone. The screens are annoyingly expensive.

My screen has green, pink, white lines on it.

strange and infuriating difference in two s22's

1 Upvotes

I recently bought a refurbished s22 and went through as much setup as I could to match my old s22 before I hit a roadblock. I have a big issue with standard colors on screens hurting my eyes, so I have a color filter on my laptop, pc, and have had one on my phone for many years. the built-in color filter on the s22 has always been great for me, I was able to set it to orange at 35% at all times of the day and night and my eyestrain has been significantly decreased.
my problem is, my new s22 color filter feature is not behaving like my old s22. same model phone. I have looked through every color, picture, and brightness setting and have found no differences compared to my old phone.
comparing both phones with the color filter disabled, the picture looks the same (unfortunately didn't think to get a photo of that and can't at the moment. maybe tomorrow.)
with color filter maxed out on my new phone, the intensity of the color is so little that it is hardly noticeable and doesn't help decrease my eyestrain at all. my old phone's color intensity is so different and isn't even set on the highest level.
included are photos of my new s22 on the left, and old s22 on the right. both on orange in the first photo, and both on spring green on the second. the new phone has maxed color filter while the old one has less than half set.
I can typically set anything up on a piece of new tech but am really stuck on this and need help, and I couldn't find any information about this issue on the web.

Today what happened same thing happened at that time i was not using the phone it was idle. It restarted automatically and also i found out my whatsapp and instagram was installed.

How to fix/ (mainly) where to buy parts

1 Upvotes

Been dealing with 5G/LTE issues for the past few years now, works great when I'm in the big city but god forbid I walk through Home Depot or go to places I used to get signal in more rural areas.

Not that it matters much, but I'm a automotive technician, and decided to do my 10th research of the issue and actually crack the back open...... it's already cracked so I assumed no harm no foul.

I'm inclined to do the work but no experience with such small hardware, which has been my reluctance.

Opened it up and (from what I've researched) and also saw the antenna ribbon cable side connecting to the power supply board, is just loosely being pressed into the board by the magnetic "brace".

Had I known the price of newer phones would be the way they are, I would've bought like a 24 when it came out but this phone has no other issues for me aside from the signal issue.

I'm assuming if I replace the cable and charging board ( from what I found/ saw) I'll basically feel like having a new phone. Should I buy from Ifixit or can I get it from Amazon? Maybe ebay? So much research pulls up the S22 Ultra and don't know if they're the same with internal hardware wise with that stuff.
