Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1: Tablet doesn't turns on or charge. Overheating at the right sup corner

Sat, 20 Jun 2026 10:53:51 -0700

Everytime I attach the battery or plug the charger the tablet won't turn on but instead it overheats. The heat come from where the processor is and it get very hot. I used a multimeter to see if there are some power supplies issues and the battery looks fine with 3,7V. I already tried disconnect and reattach the battery but it still doesn't work, even tried to plug the charger without the batery and still the same.

I starting to guess that it might be a motherboard issue. Has anyone here experienced something similar?

Here's a photo from where the heat comes from:

Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite: Tablet won’t stay connected to wifi

Sat, 30 May 2026 01:34:43 -0700

Issue started a month ago when tablet wouldn’t recognize/find saved networks. If the tablet did find a saved network, it becomes a hassle to connect to the network and stay connected. At most, tablet stays connected to saved networks for a few minutes/hours before disconnecting from the network. Issue persists across multiple networks, regardless if saved, and is the only device presenting this issue. Tried “forgetting” the saved networks, restarting the tablet and router multiple times to no avail. Any solutions out there?

Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 9.7 SM-T813: Is it possible to bypass FRP lock?

Tue, 12 May 2026 12:50:19 -0700

Hi, I have a customer who has a Samsung Tab S2 Wi-Fi with FRP lock activated. The customer already tried a factory reset, now after a few screens it asks for the old gmail account associated with the device.

I have tried a couple tricks with no luck, anything needing a “long press” doens’t work, or to do with the cellular SIM since this a Wi-Fi only model. Even tried deactivating wifi during the activation process (seen it work in one video).
