[Q] GS6 edge restarting when on treadmill - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge

Hi! I got a T-mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 edge 128GB and it's amazing! Absolutely love it! Though when working out it will restart. When walking on the treadmill it's fine, though if I start running it will keep restarting. When jogging at 7mph it will restart and load to the lockscreen then restart after about 5 seconds and just do that over and over and over. Then when running at 11mph it will restart after the T-mobile logo appears, and just keeps restarting. As soon as I starting walking (4mph) it's fine. I set the phone on a tray on the treadmill when walking/running, and it doesn't noticeably move at all. A slight vibration maybe but this thing is really sturdy. I'm hoping the issue is fixable as I work out 2+ hours a day and need my music (especially when running). I also just transferred all my lossless music to it and got a new expensive screen protector ($20 plus $12 for two day shipping ). I also got a case (Spigen Neo Hybrid) so I'd think that'd absorb any excessive vibration. I'm actually on the treadmill at the gym right now, I'll post a pic of where I set the phone. If anyone has any idea why it's restarting please let me know! Love this phone and really don't want to have to send it in for a replacement.

Iconia tab A100 screen flicker/rotating settings

I just picked up 1 of 2 A100's on BF at Walmart. And the unit I got had been opened with the writing "Display" on the box. Since walmart was willing to match Best Buys price of 189.99 I felt it was worth the risk as these are somewhat difficult to get. Even at the higher prices. So, I took it home and plugged it in. It did boot fine the first time. However, after the second boot something strange started happening. In the lower right hand corner the battery/wifi connection box would continuously pop up and go away repeatedly. It would also bring up the settings window almost as if someone was continously touching the screen i guess.
I then did a factory reset and the first boot was fine. However, when i turned it back on it started doing it again.
It appears that the Iconia Tab has a screen flicker issue but I'm curious if that is what I'm seeing. And if so what are my options? I would like to keep the thing and don't want to pay full price. So should I call acer, return to walmart when they have inventory, or is there a fix out there.
Me thinks you should of bought the 2nd, unopened unit. Buying an open box item is always risky and I'm surprised you didn't pay less than $189.
I would bring it back and return it. Wait for a new one...sounds like this one might have taken a fall or two?
I doubt you would have to pay full price...besides, BB's prices are good until Sunday...you could call 15 Wal-Mart's and find one by then.
i had no choice i was second in line.....no worries though i found another walmart that had one left at 10am and returned it for an unopened one.
I bought an 8GB A100 unit a month ago here in Italy and it is starting this weird behaviour since a week too. I cannot replicate the problem all the times. Sometimes it works perfectly, sometimes it starts clicking like crazy and opening panels and apps all by itself.
When this happened, I tried to light shake it in case of false contacts, but this doesn't seemed to stop the clicking. Also I tried to super clean the surface of the tablet blaming on excessive grease or moist, but got no improvements.
I noticed that this tends to happen more when I switch it on after a walk with the A100 in my coat's pocket, but if I use it when it is on my desk, most of times it works with no problems.
I can't decide if returning the unit or not. A month is passed and returning policies here are not granting users as much as in the US. Expecially if the problem can't be reproduced "on demand".
I don't know what to do.. maybe trying a reset could help, but as I can see from pabdaddy1995, not too much. Let's hope a firmware update can solve this.
Ciao from Claudio
pabdaddy1995, marvin2k,
This is the same problem that I've faced after installing swiftkey keyboard.
After removing it, it worked perfectly!!!!
There is something you guys are doing and you might ignored it or you didn't pay attention to that caused this problem.
Try deleting/ uninstalling new apps you added recently.
Good luck!

When you say "flicker" do you mean a VERY brief flash, like the speed of a blink of the eye, of some crazy shape?
My A100 has also done this ever since I got it. I swear that every time it happens it looks like my screen is cracked, but upon close examination, there really are no cracks in the screen. No random apps or windows pop up or anything like that, but when the flash occurs, the screen will turn funny colors and a crack in the shape of a funny looking X will appear all in the blink of an eye. But its not very often that this happens, so I'm not really gonna bother with it. Plus it was fresh from the box, never a display.
ummmmm............ could you repeat that?

galaxy s4 randomly shut off???

I've been using my s4 for about 10 days. everything's fine but it has happened like 3 times the phone just shut off itself without me touching it. it's in my pocket, and i was using it like 5mins ago, then when i take it out i found it's totally off already.
the battery had enough juice at the time and the phone didn't feel too warm either. i totally have no clue why this happened. anyone here is experiencing the same thing with your s4? :crying:
for the first two time i can just press and hold the power button to turn it back on. but today when it happened the third time, the press and hold didn't work until i took out the battery and put it back. when it's on, the battery still had like 70% power.
this is frustrating... should i contact t-mobile for an exchange?
p.s. i rooted the phone and from what i can recall, besides titanium backup i didn't install any new app that i didn't have on my old htc sensation. the sensation didn't have this random shutting down problem. (i don't think the titanium caused either).
It used to happen on my s2. But I change roms and it went away.
Change rom and see what happens.
If possiible go full stock for few days.
Otherwise return it.

Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda premium
i didn't install the adobe flash player, nor did i install a different rom. everything is stock. i fully factory reset the phone once and after that i even didn't disable or delete any bloat ware. but the random shutting down still happens... annoying

Mine has done the same thing twice, first time assumed it was me (before the latest firmware upgrade which "improves stability") the second time it was in my pocket, took it out and it was off - thought battery was dead but tried to switch it on anyway and guess what, battery was 90%+
Have no idea why it shut off - stock rom, only "odd" app is Good for enterprise .
Could it be related to overheating in the pocket?
Anyone got any ideas?
W.
Happen to me and to some other Italian guys, too! In my case, the I9500 turn off itself, sometimes reboot itself, just now! Depends from the rom, I don't know why. One rom reboot it, try another rom and after a bit of second shutdown it. And always after tha the display go off
I9505 not, it had only the problem of the audio crackle, for now.
I am also having this issue , please if someone can help...
I am having an i9500 (octa core version) and running United Arab Emirates 2013 June 4.2.2 I9500XXUBMEA I9500OJVBMEA firmware (stock , no root) , frequently when the phone is locked it will shut down on it's own and I have to keep the power button held a bit longer than usual for it to start (like 20 seconds) , I do not want to root it because the company I bought it from is not that...good....so I am very afraid of sending it to their service department , please , any info/suggestions would be greatly appreciated
There is some update about this problem?
I have stock, randomly turns off, sometimes I have to take out the battery to turn the phone on.
It's the only problem I have with the S 4, for the rest is the perfect phone

Sutting itself down
Hi
My S4 is randomly shutting itself down when in my pocket, can you advise how to rectify this situation please?
Thanks
Ok so i may have isolated the cause. at least a physical one. I am an electrician, and i do a LOT of repetitive tasks so i love listening to music while i work. thats when i noticed a pattern to the problem. and this will blow your mind.
( I do not recommend you try this yourself unless you particularily like the sound of 700$ going SNAP)
i took my phone out of my pocket, and by pressing both thumbs on the center of the screen and physicaly bending the phone forward, ( Dont give me crap for this, im smarter than most and i understand limitations. I was impressed that this phone can bend nearly a full 1/8th of an inch!) i was able to replicate the problem.
My theory is, since samsung used a softer plastic for there entire frame, and since the phone is so thin, when ever id bend down, (Pulling pants tighter across my thigh with the phone facing my leg) it would bend and physicaly seperate the metal pins that contact the battery.
PS: just got home, DGAF about spelling right now. is it this hot for anyone else right now!? lol

I've been running the GT-I9505G play edition phone for the last month and only in the last week has the phone began to reboot on its own. What's strange about it is it usually happens when I'm not using the phone. I've seen it reboot maybe a dozen times over the last week. The phone always reboots and doesn't just turn off.
I'm going to see if factory reset takes care of the problem, if not I guess back to Google for a retread...
Thanks B
Yes I do a lot of bending down and I always have my body in awkward angles while working on the flight line and I used to have the same exact problem at work. I always thought that my S4's shutting off was due to the tiny half a mm gap between the bottom of my 7500mAh ZeroLemon Extended Battery and the bottom of the phone's battery slot, in-turn causing the battery to move inside my S4 and make the battery disconnect from the pins. I noticed a tiny gap in the fitting of the battery to the phone and that the battery was never really snug as much as it was with the 3500mAh Anker Extended Battery for my S3; it's really easy to remove the ZeroLemon battery and thought the battery shouldn't be easy to remove.
So I figured it was either the gap causing it to shut off or my movements somehow causing the power button to be pushed while it was in my pocket. I had a feeling it couldn't be the latter though because the thigh-located cargo/map pockets of my ABU's are a bit too large to not have enough room in the pocket for the power button to be pushed. I ended up solving my shutting off problem by cutting a very small piece of thick, durable paper the length of the S4's battery slot and I used the paper as a shim between the bottom edge of the ZeroLemon battery and my S4's battery slot to close the miniscule gap. Since I did used a thick piece of paper as a shim, I've yet to get any sudden shut-off's... even with the amount of times I bend down and move in ways that would cause it to shut off.

I just recently have same issues, it is turning off while the battery is not dead! i have tries to reset the factory setting but it dose not help at all.
what frustrated that Samsung mobile costumer services in UK is not helping much!!!
any help please
if your phone shuts off and than you try to restart it and the battery is a lot lower than before than your battery is broken
I get exactly what you describe, only takes a slight bend to shutdown. doesn't do it with the back cover off, without the cover the battery moves out slightly and the phone stays on.

hardware fault dead in under an hour

Well I'm disappointed!
phone arrived Yesterday. Worked perfectly whilst I added all my personal details then I decided to install asphalt 8, just to see how it performs (I don't actually intend to play it - can't stand the pay to win crap), and the phone made a nasty crackling sound and froze on the menu screen.
Powered down with power button, and on restart the screen is messed up with multi coloured lines running across it in various places. Then freezes, and reboots to repeat the process,the lines appear in different places. Sometimes makes it into the os, sometimes show the android error broken robot icon.
I'm guessing some fault with the graphic chip.
Luckily I bought direct from amazon so they are sending a replacement, but I have lost money on next day delivery, plus however much it costs to send back the phone (I'm in the UK but bought from mainland Europe) also not pleased my personal details are still on the device. At least I didn't import it from China.
Hopefully my phone was just a rare dud, and the replacement will be fine, as I can't find any similar reports online.
Anyone else had similar problems?
Yeah I would say that's a faulty unit. Sending it back is the right thing to do. Hope you get your money back
Sent from my ZE550ML
Well the replacement is great so far.
I noticed before the 1st one died that it was getting pretty hot on the back at the top, whilst simply going through the setup process.
The new one has been cool throughout setup, charging and about 3 straight hours of webbrowsing, so maybe the heat issue some are reporting is related to the hardware issue that killed my 1st one.
It does seem that quality control could be lacking, but as long as you buy from somewhere that offers returns, then i think its well worth buying.
I have just been using it as a mini tablet at home until i get a case and screen protector, so i dont know what the call quality etc is like, but battery on wifi has been pretty good.
Also, i charged it fully 3 days ago, and then left it on standby with wifi turned on and didnt use it. This moring it had over 80% battery, so standby time is much better than my s4 mini.

Turbo 2 My final thoughts.

I have an S6 edge and i love the phone but the battery life left me to leaving battery saver on all the time and at the end of the day i would be at about 30%. So i thought it was time to pick up something that will last longer. And i had the phone since launch so time for something new.
First things first. Its huge. Its really big. But so is the price you pay for a phone that can walk away from a 900 foot drop and has a huge batt. Secondly if you get this phone do as i did. Before you even touch the display put the glass screen protector on it. If not you will get scratches.
So day to day use i love it. I end the day with about 70% battery life. The charger is amazing. 25watts will get you topped off really fast. Display is not bad. You really need to look to see the gap that all the layers make it have. But really not bad. People say i sound much better on the phone and people sound better. The radios in this phone kill the S6 edgs. Where i would get around 65Mbs down i now get around 100Mbs. Calls are nice and clear. Camera takes a little getting use to and you will deff want another camera app as the stock is blan. I can get pretty good pics now but it was a change going from a ois cam to one without it but phase detecting auto focus. Android runs smooth and i love the moto touches. First phone since the droid razer and im glad they pulled back. The moto touch is a great polish to android.
The bad. Bluetooth to my car some times will take 30-45 sec to connect. My S6 is much faster. But the Turbo 2's connection was solid and gave me no issues.
I really love this phone. Put a $20 128gig micro sd card in it and replaced the stock gray ballistic nylon back with a black nylon back and it was not that hard. As soon as the guy who i order my parts from gets the blue buttons and what not ill put those on it so i can have the one i want "Wanted it that day did not want to wait for the moto maker version" But ill be keeping it. I miss my S6's finger print reader but with a patter lock and set up to only lock when i set it down i can live without it. And its good to say screw you sammy and your super locked down devices. My S6 is rooted but thats the last sammy phone ill ever own due to them locking them down so hard.
Here are some benchmarks that i have done at diff times when someone asked me. Looks like i got a decently binned 810 and is at the higher end of the spectrum.

I got one 2 days ago. Do not regret it one bit whatsoever; great device in every way. It's fast, battery life is crazy good, no overheating/throttling, display is very clear with extremely accurate colors for an OLED (gets up to about 400 nits max [pretty average], color temperature is about 6800K [kelvins] so really accurate.
Camera takes very good photos, and I can use it with one hand with small hands. No lag whatsoever, even after intensive gaming.
The bad: I wish there was a fingerprint sensor on here; not a major issue for me. Benchmarks:

Except for when you're charging it. The only time the Turbo 2 ever heats up is when you turbo charge it, and I've experienced some throttling playing games at the same time. Kinda sucks since my PlayStation emulator absolutely murders the battery, so the only way you can play it for an extended period of time is while it's charging I had to use my old Samsung charger that charges slower to avoid throttling.
Turbo/fast charging is handy but not good for battery life in long term. When you play games, part of the power/current goes to the device itself so it's less destructive for battery but heat is.

I don't know if its the Bluetooth scan interval on the turbo 2's stock setting but my s6 was maybe 10 sec at most. It's not a big issue just annoying.
Very rarely my DT2 will not connect in time to my Ford's Sync system. But, it's probably 1 out of every 20-ish tries (unless the Sync module needs a fuse pull), and all I have to do is just push the Voice button and tell it Bluetooth Audio.
My Galaxy S6, on the other hand, it was maybe 3/10 times that it would successfully connect. It had terrible battery life, too, would be down to about 20% after playing local music with the screen off for ~7 hours.
My DT2 is a beast and blows away the S6. Note4, too, but it's a much closer race with the Note4.
I find it hard to believe you found a 128GB micro SD for only $20. Sounds like you're ebragging and if it really was that cheap, I'm sure it won't last long. Cheapest I could find was for $34.99 and that was on sale.

There are rumors, that is possible to find sd card with capacity as much you wish. Even unlimited is possible. When sd card reach physical limit, will start writing data from the beginning. So in theory has unlimited capacity for writing, only problem is reading
Interesting, coming from my Droid Maxx, my bluetooth is totally improved in both of my cars.
The only complaint I have with the phone is now I cannot speak at all in my condo where before (with the Maxx) I was able to talk with only an occasional blackout (even in my basement).

Is your Replacement Note 7 working properly?

Hey guys, replacement day is approaching, and I keep reading these articles about overheating / overdraining battery issues in the replacement Note 7.
I wanted to open a main thread about how everybody who got a replacement Note 7 is doing and if they can report any issue...
So, if you have replaced your Note 7, how is it doing?
tnx for participating!

Doesn't look like a Hoax.
Whadda???
As well as the first. No issues here?
Got mine a week or so ago, no issues here. I managed to root it again using Sprint userdebug and it runs much better than the previous note did. Battery also seems to run very cool. The highest temp Ive seen was 34Âșc, which is incredibly cool. That was while I was out playing Pokemon Go during a hot afternoon by the way!!
No issues here, other than occasional SD820 lag.
No problems here either...
Agreed, Jo issues other then slight SD820 lag but since the new update its far smoother than the old Note 7 I had and only has the occasional stutter.
Edit: Battery life is still fairly similarr, however, I think that's due to my personal usage.
Works great, the was a couple of minor things that were different. I can't remember what since they were so insignificant
.
Got the replacement on Sep 21
Today, Sep 25, about 11 am, my note 7 got uncomfortably warm, it can be felt both on the back through the synthetic leather cover (wallet case) and on the front, but mostly on the back.
Turned the phone off for at least 5 minutes, then turned it back on, within a minute it gets warm again, and in about 4-5 min. it gets warmer, unusually warm.
Turned it back off for at least 30 min., turned it back on again, and this time I can't even input my security PIN, the screen isn't responding.
I turned it back off, take off my 256 GB SD card.
Called Samsung (The recall Phone#), they answered right away (very surprised) told them what happened, she then told me that this is not the first time they had this issue with the new replacement Note7, she transfer me to the support department, she told me the tech support department should issue me some kind of report# or whatever, I forgot, so that I could bring that to ATT to get another replacement phone.
The support reps just told me to bring the phone to the store to get it replaced.
Went to ATT Corporate Store in Rancho Cucamonga, CA.
The sales person told me that I'm the second person with the same issue. The store can't issue a second replacement phone, she suggested me to bring it to ATT Device Support Center in Rancho Cucamonga.
But by then it's already close to 5 PM, Sunday. The office/store will be closed in few minutes.
So the ATT store clerk says to bring it to Best Buy where they have ATT reps inside to get it replaced.
So I went there, bad news....the wait is long...I decided to come back the next day.
End of story.
Now, Sep 25, Sunday night, I tried once more to powered up the Note7
It works, it didn't get warm, battery is at 40%
Put the SD card back in, and back up everything.
About an hour later, the phone gets warm again!
This time I didn't turn it off, I just stop using it and leave it on, I set the battery to "Medium Power" Saving Mode.
Battery now at 25%.
I think this time, it could be a software issue.
I remember when I change my 2009 iMac hard drive with SSD, I had to install a software to make the Fan work properly.
Samsung need to call that software company
The only issue that I'm having is when I'm scrolling through the app drawer with my finger is very slow. When I scroll with the S pen it's very fast. Other than that no complaints the phone hasn't overheated at all.

I'm noticing some bluetooth issues.
It won't connect to my asus zenwatch2.
It will connect to my macbook pro for a few minutes.
I've cleared the bluetooth data and cache and turned bluetooth on and off.
Ditto on the bluetooth issues here. I use a Bluetooth continuous glucose monitor that worked great before I swapped. Cleared cache, reset, et cetera but connectivity is still intermittent.

I m getting the note 7 would you guys recommend me getting one
no problems at all! wonderful phone!
Exynos model here, no problems.
Replaced Exynos working well.
With new N7 I got better battery life and the phone doesn't heat up at all during fast charge (V1 did a little). If anything, the touch was not registering too well, sometimes I had to press twice to register. That was yesterday, today it's fine now, so maybe I just need to wait for things to settle, since I was downloading 3 GB of programs and data and still setting things up.
Im having bluetooth issues as well. it keeps disconnecting from my gear fit 2 and i have to manually open the app and hit connect, which works about 75% of the time. Also battery does not last as long as my previous one. its not horrible but i notice the difference.
Does anyone have gap problem in the replacement note 7?!

yeah i can slide a sticky note along both sides of the frame and glass on mine. my previous one was almost as bad. From what I understand this is by design.
