      I have a different issue.
      My camera keeps on crashing.
      I have disabled face/iris unlock since sometimes I get a pop up that the camera is being used by another application.
      Anyone who knows to solve this.
      On the S8+

            Ths is what you get when you buy "overpriced" phones (Pixel, S series etc)
            You get a very shiny toy with lots of problems. Even Gionee phones (not to mention good priced flagship phones like the OnePlus) do not have these hardware problems. I guess Fanboys deserve what they get.

              My S8 Active just started doing this at random. Run it thru the little maintenance app once a week and it seems to be fine now.

                  AnonD-368020, 03 Jan 2018Are you sure, it's not an AI trying to contact. Maybe something with Always On display like we see on this video. Samsung need to investigate this.

                      I am facing the same issue. Randomly my S8+ screen is turning on when it is on the table and nothing touches it. I cannot say this is happening very often as I just noticed it today for the first time twice. My model is SM-G955F

                        Are all of you who are having this issue are actually using your original cable and charger?
                        Just need to confirm something lol.
                        Also in this video the phone's battery is already at 100%.

                          Noticed this issue on my s8+ last week. Happened only while connected to a charger in a car. At least in my case. Annoying as it was, it didn't impact the battery life much as it was being charged at the same time.

                            My XZP run really cool with extremely minimal shutter or lags...

                            The issue i have with my XZP in nougat :
                            1. Randomly turn on loudspeaker while calling
                            2. Wifi need to be restarted every few days

                              Looks like a motherboard issue.

                                I have same issues here with my Galaxy A3 2017, every time this device try to auto lock (with display off a sec) or even locked manually with power button, its immediately wakes up.
                                Turns normal again after I restarted the device.
                                It has been twice happened, 5 days ago and last night (UTC +8).

                                  Only issue that I had is very slow charging when phone is on while its off charging is fast.
                                  Taking almost 3 hours to fully charge
