My Samsung phone keeps dropping out!
Today you actually need your phone all day long, so when your Samsung keeps breaking down, it’s very annoying. Sometimes it happens when it is cold/warm, when the device is performing heavy tasks, or with specific apps. So the failure of your Samsung can have several causes.
What causes these are we are going to discuss in this blog through the following points:
- Battery problems
- Overheating
- Software Problems
- Problematic apps
- Samsung breaks down after update
- Samsung breaks down with full battery
Battery problems
In most cases where your Samsung phone fails just like that, it is due to a malfunctioning battery. This then becomes especially apparent when it is very cold outside, a lot of computing power is required or the device suddenly shuts down with 20% left in the battery. All of these examples can be traced back to the battery no longer functioning properly. This is because then it can no longer supply the peak currents that your Samsung phone sometimes needs and thus keeps failing. To fix this, you can stop by at one of our stores To have the battery replaced. At the bottom of this page a button and you can immediately schedule an appointment.
Overheating
It can also happen that your device shuts itself off because it gets too hot. This can happen when, for example, heavy games are played or the device has been in direct sunlight for a long time. Therefore, you will feel that the unit is very hot. The moment the phone’s internal temperature is lower again, everything will work as usual. These are the quickly explainable problems when your Samsung phone breaks down.
However, there are also some less readily explainable causes. Should your phone fail without you doing anything with it or without it being in the hot sun, there may be a short circuit on the motherboard. This means that a lot of current suddenly goes through a certain point of the device, this causes a lot of heat and drains your battery extremely quickly. When this is the case, it is convenient to stop by our office for a free diagnosis or repair.
Software Problems
In addition, there may be a problem in the device’s operating system. It may have crept in during the previous update of your Samsung phone, for example. Fortunately, these problems are located and fixed fairly quickly by Samsung itself. A new update will then be available to remove the bugs from the operating system. Should this take too long, or not solve the problem, there is still the option of using your Samsung phone reset to factory settings. However, it is advisable to make a good backup and secure important documents and photos before doing so. In fact, all data stored on your Samsung phone will be deleted with this.
Problematic apps
It could also be that one of the recently installed apps is causing a problem and causing your Samsung phone to crash and shut down. If not, you can still try booting the device in “Safe Mode. This way you can check if any of the installed apps are causing the problem. You get into “Safe Mode” by turning the device off and on again, but when you see the Samsung logo on the screen, hold down the volume down button. When the device has booted on and stopped failing, you can assume that the problem is in one of the apps. Then restart the device to get out of “Safe Mode. After that, check to remove the apps that were recently installed and see if this solves the problem.
Samsung breaks down after update
It is common for a Samsung phone to become unstable after a software update. This can cause spontaneous shutdowns, reboots or crashes. In many cases, Samsung fixes this with a new update. Therefore, always check whether a new update is available. If the problem persists, a factory reset or professional diagnostics can help.
Samsung breaks down with full battery
Is your Samsung failing while the battery is still reading 30%, 40% or even higher? Then chances are the battery is worn out. The software then gives a wrong battery status, while the actual capacity is lower. A battery replacement is often the quickest and most effective solution in this situation.
