Power and Charging Problems
Problem
Description/Solution
The phone malfunctions or does not
function
Remove the battery and then replace it. Turn on
the phone. If the problem persists, contact a
Samsung service representative.
The battery’s standby time is shorter
than expected
•
Batteries are subject to wear and tear.
Standby time may grow shorter as time
passes.
•
Leaving a fully charged battery in a cold or
hot place for a long period of time may
reduce battery life.
•
Standby time depends on where you use the
phone. The actual time may vary from the
battery’s specifications.
Is it OK if I leave the phone connected
to the power outlet after it is fully
charged
We recommend that you disconnect the phone
from the adapter or unplug the adapter from the
power outlet.
The phone becomes hot
This may happen when you are on the phone or
when you use programs (such as games, the
Internet, or the camera) because the phone
needs more power at those times. This does not
affect the phone’s life or performance.
The battery level seem sufficient, but
the phone does not turn on
•
Remove the battery from the phone and
reinstall it. Then turn on the phone.
•
Clean the metal contacts both on the battery
and on the phone. Reinstall the battery and
turn on the phone.
The phone turns off when the adapter
is connected
Some dust on the contacts may cause
unexpected power-off or charging problems.
Clean the metal contacts both on the battery and
on the phone.
