Went to service centre cause my phone's battery drain overnight has been worse than usual and it easily gets overheated while in use. My warranty still got 1 week left and just want to see if I'll be able to get new battery.

After diagnosed turned out those issues were caused by motherboard and they said my battery is still ok. Lol. So i got my motherboard replaced instead of battery. But how do I know that they replaced it? No receipt or anything cause there was no payment.

After I collected my phone, my battery health was at 95% instead of 92% when I last checked it. But after few days it's now reduced to 93.5%. Haha.

I want to know this too...how to know they really change the parts they mentioned?

And samsung pay level, is it maintain if board change or need to start over???

Appreciate input from those who got experience on this

After wasting so much money on screen protectors, I've settled on the UV glue tempered glass. Previously I bought my own loca glue and applied my own tempered glass, and it was great.

But recently I sent the phone to samsung service centre and they changed my screen, so have to buy new tempered glass.

Now I'm using the UV tempered glass Q MAC has, RM 39 with installation. Waiting to see if there will be bubbles.

Just buy the UV tempered glass. It fits all cases, does not affect touches, and is clear. Side glue tempered glass is not worth it because they affect screen sensitivity. Full glue tempered glass will have black borders that cover the screen. Plastic screen protectors will be peeled when you use tight cases.

Tldr, use UV light with glue tempered glass.

Where to get?

Pie update done - cleared cache through recovery, and all is smooth, no clean install needed. UI looks good, and gesture navigation is a godsend for amoled burn in prevention.

How to clear cache via stock recovery??rusty liao...long time no play
