Samsung Galaxy A52: My Phone won't charge and I don't know what to do

Tue, 18 Aug 2026 17:25:23 -0700

So my Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G won't charge as of ~45 minutes ago; it was at ~25% back then. I've already tried using other Cables and Restarting it and whatnot, but now I'm down to 14% and I'm getting kind of desperate.

In the months leading up to tonight, it used to get really really hot while charging, to the point where I had to unplug it every 40-50 percent or so out of fear that it would get too hot and, I don't know, explode or something.

I've also chosen to delay any Software Updates the phone would try to push on me, for the last 1-2 years? Maybe?? I don't remember??? Could it maybe have something to do with that? And it says that the Update can only be done at like +20%, so I'm kind of screwed anyways.

So I guess tomorrow I'll head into town to see if they have some sort of wireless charging thing for Samsung. If that fails, I guess I'll try cleaning the charging port (I have this irrational fear of getting electrocuted whilst doing so but I'll do anything for my camera roll), and if that too leads nowhere, then I guess I'll buy another Model of the exact same phone and Frankenstein the Motherboard into the new phone (I am NOT going to try to remove the memory chip thing, no siree).

...Are there any other things I could try? Ones that, perhaps, involve less emergency invasive surgery on my phone? But as I've said before, I'll try anything at this point.

Thanks for reading.

Samsung Galaxy A52: Where is the temperature sensor that stops the phone from charging

Thu, 14 May 2026 05:04:16 -0700

When I try to charge my phone, it says it is too cold, even though that's definetly not the case. I checked the sensor with "DevCheck" and it says it's -20°C. In some rare cases, it shows more °C and charges, but most of the time it doesnt.

So I want to replace the part with the broken sensor now and need to know where the sensor is. So...does anyone know?

Thanks in advance!

Samsung Galaxy A52: The screen turns black when the back cover is on

Wed, 11 Feb 2026 11:10:22 -0700

Basically, my phone fell and then the display went yellowish and later full black. The touch screen is working (fingerprint scan works). I tried fixing it so I removed the back cover to see what caused the problem but it somehow fixed itself but when I tried to put it back on, it bacame the same as before. I thinks it bacause it presses something back a little or there's some sensor.
