Giving this phone to grandpa as a secondary one. The stock rom is kind of slow and other Roms have bugs such as volte not working, camera buggy, selinux permissive etc etc, what would you guys reccomend?

So only ever done a few phone repairs Sony z1 and 2 z5 screens and a couple others, Anyways my son had a Samsung s6 Edge, it was leggy and getting slow so did factory reset thinking it was all his crap, he used the phone to game and he ran it pretty hard in its time anyways I decided it must be the battery by now and that the phone is throttling due to power issues, so I'm still in learning and this is first time I nipped the battery wow that things started gassing so I rushed to force the rest of it out ran it to door burst into flames ontop I cracked the glass back but it has a case so didn't care, so new battery in and phone wiped, but to my surprise same leggy UI so what could it be ? Or do I need to reset the battery system so it knows its new or what, a little stuck so any help welcome. Thanks

I have an S6 that someone passed to me. The back cover has blown itself off as the battery expanded. Now it boots up on a charger but will either crash and restart soon or it will die after being unplugged while reporting at least 92%

It just randomly started doing that

Hello! Is it possible today to somehow pay with this phone using NFC? Google Wallet is supported from Android 9 now and old versions I tried are not working. Samsung Pay is not supported in my country even after using VPN.

can someone tell me how to fix galaxy s6 when i try volume up + power and home it boots into system update but i already flashed twrp with odin?

Hi guys,
I just bought S6 I rooted and tried different roms like LineageOS 18.1 and others.
I notice the battery drains fast maybe in 3 hours or 4.
Is there way to make stay longer like a specific rom or apps. I already have root on it if there is anything I can do with.
My regards,

I got a new phone but when i booted up my old samsung They had taken peel remote off or disabled it. What happened or how can I get that app back on it? It was actually crazy I could control everything with it

Im in a huge need of a dumb project like that, id love to get linux or sum close to that running on my s6

Recently in UK most 3G networks have been disabled and I am unable to make and receive voice calls. I checked my phone and could not find enable VolTE and noticed that there has not been a request for it for over 4 years on Reddit so I was wondering is there anything more upto date than that? Thanks.

hey everyone!, im newbie on r/galaxys6 I have this s6 and I've had it in the closet for 1 year. I tried plugging it in to charge it and it worked normally, but after entering the home screen, it suddenly hangs and restarts itself. I tried many ways but they didn't work. Is there any other way to fix it?

I have a few questions

!. Does the s6(edge) support the ssc codec

2. If it does how do get it to use it, there doesn't seem to be an option in dev settings on stock rom

3. Is the proprietary codec exclusive to stock rom or can it be used on custom roms

The phone heats up from charging but no led or charging screen, any thoughts?

I want to get the Samsung Galaxy S6 for a travel phone. Is it still good? I know it's from 2015

I have a s6 edge the phone didn’t get used for a long time I did try to charge it but no sign of life but when I use it with wireless charger the charger light up and says it’s charger but phone still dead is the motherboard is cooked or it’s another problem like battery or ic extra?

I have this phone that I only used for browsing the internet from years ago. I no longer have any use for it. can I re-purpose it for some other uses? Maybe like an android tv remote or casting? thanks
