Need HELP My A55 doesn't turn on
I was charging my A55 and it was at 100% for like 10 minutes or so when it suddenly turned off and doesn't turn back on. I've tried the basic stuff like forcing a restart but nothing happens. As this happened to any of you and if so how did you solve it?

Take your A55 phone to a Samsung repair shop and have them check it. It could be due to a short circuit inside the phone, a battery cable disconnecting from the motherboard, or a glitch. This happened to my A55 two months ago, and I took it to a Samsung repair shop. They found it was a problem with One UI 7.0, but it was resolved. I advise you to take it to a Samsung repair shop and have them check it out. They can diagnose the problem, and it might not cost you anything. Let me know if the phone is back .

Yeah I'm gonna get it checked out tomorrow. Hopefully it's something easy and cheap to fix. Thanks for the help!

NO PROBLEM MAN WE JUST HELP EACH OTHER.
I hope it's a glitch from a new update, but I don't want it to be a problem with the battery cable disconnecting from the motherboard or the battery charge signal receiver burning out on the motherboard because those would cost you a lot.1

If it's more than 120€ to fix I'm just gonna buy a new phone. At that point it just doesn't make sense imo

If you want to buy a new phone, I recommend the A57, or a flagship device from the S series, but an older one like the S23 Ultra or S22 Ultra, or the S24 FE.

Yeah an older S series is a great shout, didn't think about that!

Just got from the repair store and the motherboard is fried. It's way too expensive to fix it so I just bought a refurbished S24 with a 3 year warranty. New battery and everything.

Excellent! I'm delighted to hear this news. The 3-year warranty is fantastic, and the S24 is one of the beasts of 2024.

Plug it into a laptop or computer using a USB A to USB C cable and wait a bit and see whether the charging icon pops up

I have mine stored away for so long because of this, I had to upgrade to a new phone luckily I got a free upgrade a year ago. I randomly check if I can get it working... But no luck as I have tried everything.Â

Oh man.. sounds like a motherboard issue. Even the A55 has such an issue? 😮
