  • Hi! in my case I can't turn the phone off, every time that i charge it, automatically turns on and then the bootloop begins, and the only way to turn the screen of is to wait that the batery dies. What shall I do?

  • Two weeks ago I was out in a rural area and went to use a hot spot. Since then I am unable to use internet. I have done everything except factory reset. Do you have any idea how to fix this problem. I have an Galaxy S8.
