How can I fix this issue? When my s8 idles and then goes black as I press the power button the screen goes black with a little sliver of green visible at the top. When that happens, i have to wait until that green sliver disappears and then if I tap the screen a bit the time date will become visible. Then I can press the power button and get the screen working again. Any idea what the problem is and how to fix it? Thanks to everyone reading!

My s8+ had an update and froze when i went to use it. Now it won't turn on and I've managed to do what your doing once and it still won't turn on or go to the computer looking screen.
I did this but my phone stayed off, black screen, its not charging or turning on at all, i can access the download mode but it does nothing else? any ideas?
S8 stuck in restart loop, can't turn it off, doesn't respond to any force reset or mode attempts, doesn't get past galaxy screen. Seems impossible since everyone recommends turning it off, which I can't do.
@@ashleighchambers6909 I let the battery die and waited awhile and it eventually went into the restore mode, but none of the options to get it working without factory resetting it got it working again. It's still stuck in restore mode so I bought a different phone. Good luck.
Ever since I did my factory reset I haven't had any phone pages. Five of my pages have nothing on them now. All I can use them for is to add icons. So the phone icon can sit there, on it's own and work but that's all.
I read an article online .. did it.Nothing worked i got a reboot loop.Did it again.Nothing works...now im watching the video.I did the same and it did work... but i did exactly the same things.
doesn't work on S8+ with damaged (black) screen and touch panel. Although laying down another similar phone next to it and doing the same there to the same time. CMD doesn't know this device after connecting or doesn't find any devices. Maybe some other step on some phones, or a bug inside? (I only want to set it into debugging mode without screen or panel, to save the data (pics)... - no more idea...
mine doesnt even work like when I unplug it from the charger nothing happens and when I do its just a nonstop loop of the screen with samsung galaxy s8, plz give me help ahhh
i need help asap, i can't get to the screen to factory reset it, i press power, volume down & bixby then i get to the warning screen what do i do from there??
I'm dying Nothing will work i have an s8 Samsung galaxy. I downloaded an app then it took me to the "installing update" then it says no command then it says a whole bunch of codes at the bottom not at the top like yours. Nothing will work can someone please help. Do I have to buy a new phone?
I would first try to boot into Safe Mode - www.androidexplained.com/galaxy-s8-safe-mode/ If the vibrating stops in Safe Mode then it's an application you donwloaded and installed from the Play Store (or other sources) that is causing it. You will then need to uninstall apps until you find out which one it is. If that doesn't work though, then I would suggest booting up into Recovery Mode and performing a factory reset - www.androidexplained.com/galaxy-s8-factory-reset/
Android Explained i did the volume down and power button it turned on but the screen is still black. I receive messages and notifications but still black. It happened to me before but the black screen didn’t last long. Now it’s almost a week :(
HI um so how do i fix my s8 the led on the top that is supposed to show green or red is just gone and the things i did on the video did nothing so can you tell me how to fix this
Dosen't work for me. I forgot the email that i loged in with. I can't go into setings or anythyng. And this it dosen't work for me. When i'm tryng the phone just turns on and ask me for the email. Any anothe way to reset it? Thanks.
@@ExplainingAndroid i managed to enter Reset it. But it still asking for the email. I bought the phone from ebay. The guy sayd that he forgot the email.that he used. Can i do anythyng about that? Thanks.
@@ExplainingAndroid i can't. I have already open the phone for an lcd change. I could not reset the phone whitout opening it and put the motherboar into another screen.
That sounds like some sort of hardware issue (especially if the screen doesn't turn on when you reboot). This type of recovery mode is meant for software type stuff, it seems like yours is hardware related.
My phone's certainly not rooted and this just worked for me. I got the recovery mode screen after my phone died and after turning it on, it started to install an update, then the screen appeared 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
