    Galaxy S6 won't boot; Black screen, green solid light

    Just a follow up on this thread -- Had a repairman open up my s6 and try a new battery. Didn't solve my issue so it seems to be a hardware/board failure. Guess I'm outta luck. Anyway, been rockin my clunky s3 in the meantime, but ordered a near-mint s7 off ebay for $239. Thanks all.

    Galaxy S6 won't boot; Black screen, green solid light

    Yeah I was leery, but was coming off of an S3 that was on it's last leg. Thanks for the advice. I'll see what the repair shop estimator says.

    Galaxy S6 won't boot; Black screen, green solid light

    Thanks for your advice Dano. Do you know if this is maybe just a new battery or piece of hardware?...or is this a "scrap-your-phone-out and get a new one" kind of problem?

    Galaxy S6 won't boot; Black screen, green solid light

    Over lunch I had my unresponsive phone in my jacket pocket. Pulled it out to try the button routines again. There was some warmth to the phone, not hot, but warmth. I assume power dissipating out. While I had it out of my pocket I did notice over the half hour that the green light had gone...

    Galaxy S6 won't boot; Black screen, green solid light

    Greetings all, I put my S6 on the nightstand [wired] charger last night (like every night). The phone was on when I put it on the charger. Woke up late and in a rush this morning because my phone alarm(s) did not go off. Looked over at my phone as was like wtf, why didn't the alarm(s) go...

    Why is my text to speech suddenly adding duplicates

    I've seen many posts about text to speech duplicating but my issue is a bit unique... Problem came on suddenly for my phone today as well. S6. Google search bar is unaffected but everything else (text, snapchat to name a couple) gives me 2, sometimes 3 or 4 repeats. The thing with my issue is...

    How do I stop my voice text from repeating everything twice?

    Problem came on suddenly for my phone today as well. S6. Google search bar is unaffected but everything else (text, snapchat to name a couple) gives me 2, sometimes 3 or 4 repeats. The thing with my issue is that the repeats appear to be other phonetic possibilities, like it's listing every...

    Freaky Fast Battery Fall Off? (Drain)

    I wanted to follow back up after roughly 15 days after the original cache clearing. Since I did that I have not experienced the weird 'quick draw' from 100% down to roughly 50% immediately after unplugging it from the charger. So it appears to be corrected for the time being. Thanks for the...

    Freaky Fast Battery Fall Off? (Drain)

    Just thought I would upload this picture for reference of today. It illustrates the orig posting pretty well. You can see at the beginning it jumps down from 100 to 47 roughly. IN the middle there is where I rebooted and cleared the cache. Did a couple short charges since, nothing as steep...

    Freaky Fast Battery Fall Off? (Drain)

    Completed. I suppose the true test is after a charging. FYI, battery came back at 15% (maybe 5-7% lower than before cache clear).

    Freaky Fast Battery Fall Off? (Drain)

    Hi all, First time poster here. Galaxy S3, current updates etc. So my phone's been great, had it about a year. No major issues at all with the battery or anything. Two days ago I pulled it off the charger in the morning (said 100%). When I looked down at it when I hopped into my car, it...
