My Samsung S6 Edge+ failed 3 days ago. After overnight charging as usual, unplugged it and tried to switch it on: nothing. Plugged it in and it showed the identity screen ("Samsung Galaxy S6 edge + powered by android") and a blue startup screen with 0% battery and a message about installing update. That cycle repeated a few times until I unplugged it.

Since then it ignores all button press combinations. Plugged in, it cycles through the identity screen (10 seconds) and a black screen (5 seconds). A Samsung brick.

Just take it to a Samsung Center in your town, and get them fix it regardless it is still under warranty or not. I was told there is a battery setting problem that was causing the batt leak so fast after firmware upgrade. Hence they replaced mine one with a new S6.

ZM, 20 Mar 2018Since the firmware update the battery life has changed drastically. Please check. That happens to all Samsung with faulty battery, go to a Samsung center and get them fixed or demand a replacment of a new one.

I am having the same battery problem since the recent software update. Battery was at 70% then overnight it drained to 5% without any usage and with all unnecessary apps disabled. Need a software update to correct this please!
