Samsung Galaxy Tab A8: Wifi randomly disconnects and won't reconnect

Thu, 25 Dec 2025 07:32:24 -0700

It will connect when turned on that at some point drops the Wi-Fi and won't reconnect. I have tried soft reset and hard reset as well as resetting just Bluetooth and Wi-Fi setting and it still does it.

Samsung Galaxy Tab A8: Is a Pentalobe screwdriver really needed?

Tue, 24 Feb 2026 13:14:41 -0700

Do I really need one of these to replace the screen on my Galaxy Tab A8?

Does the year matter along with the model number? SMX200NZA.

Last question: there are dozens of screen/digitized replacements, so how do I choose one, except for the cheapest screen?

Thank you.

Samsung Galaxy Tab A8: I spilled water on my tablet.

I spilled water on my tablet, and it wouldn't turn off for 3 minutes, so I had to power it off. I left it in my room, and my AC is broken so the house is 90 degree fahrenheit. What do I do next?

Hi,
I use a Samsung Galaxy Tab A8 (2021, 10.5"). Recently, 'USB connector connected'/disconnected message keeps popping up every second on my tablet whether I plug in the type c port or not. It also doesn't allow the screen to turn off. I've tried all the methods related to software functions available in the Youtube but failed to solve the problem.
Any suggestions, please? Thanks and regards.
