S6 Edge Usb Dock and battery - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi everyone,
one side of my s6 edge that my brother gave me just popped up a little from the adhesive ( battery side)
but then when I asked my brother ( he said that the phone was exposed for long periods to the sun many times )
so I said okay that could explain it.
but with a bit of research I found that the problem was coming from the battery that bumped up of long exposure to the sun.
I then disassembled the device and found that the battery was indeed bumped up a little and that it pushed one of side of the back cover
but my question is , can it influence the Usb-Dock of the s6 edge ? because first :
1- the phone take more than normal time to recharge
2- the phone discharge slowly with intensive use ( game , fb , videos and navigation all at the same times even when it's plugged in to the wall-charger (but not when normal use like only watch youtube etc.. )
3- don't sync , and it say device is not recognized,
4- don't fast-charge , i bought a fast charger ( aukey ) the fast charging work with other s6 but not mine
5- after i tried everything , changed cable, charger, tested on multiple pc's and tried every single driver that i found on them but still nothing and still the same problem .
so i bought a new USB-Dock thinking maybe the one it came with was faulty and I replaced it with the new one ,
but nothing still the same problem (by the way this is where I discovered that the battery was bumped up).
so , it does not accept fast charging and don't sync with the pc , so then i though that maybe the battery has something to do with it , and so is my question , could it be the battery ?
thank you

Guy's..... No one !!?

I have the strangest problems with my SGS2

Sorry for my english it is not my native language
About a month ago the problems started appearing on my SGS2, it all began when i installed a file from internet i downloaded it directly to my phone unzipped it and i installed it ( osmos game). After 2-3 hours my phone was going on car mode and off , i restarted it the problem was "gone", the next morning my phone drained the battery to 0% it would not even charge anymore , i thought it broke but then i got a new battery and it worked but the car mode problem was still there ( i had a custom rom , at first i used litening rom and then its spiritual successor Ultratix rom) also the phone started freezing and when i removed the battery and turned it on the battery jumped for example from 60% to 30% and then over time it "charged" itself to 40%, i thought maybe it was a virus i did a full wipe and re installed the rom , at first it worked fine but then the problems started appearing again the battery drain went from 100-500 mA doing nothing but the didnt get hot , so i thought maybe the rom was fault , i changed to OMEGA the same story at first it ran fine but then the problems starting appearing , so i installed ICS stock Rom again the same story(except the battery drain was normal) but now 2 more problems appeared when i fully charge the phone thinks it overcharged and it keeps sending me alerts on that so i need to restart it for it to go away , and when somebody calls me the caller keeps hearing his own voice BUT if i remove the case it the call goes fine ( I have casemate popcase and another silicone case , with both of them the same problem appears ) and today i tried installing CheckRom i did full wipe,wipe cache,wipe battery stats and everything with every rom i installed . Can someone tell me what the hell is the problem with my phone ?
PS: sometimes instead of car mode it goes to dock mode .

Your USB port is a little screwy. I and many others on XDA have experienced the exact same problems you describe. In some peoples case they were able to resolve the issues by either cleaning the port gently or gently prying the internal clip so as to lift it a little towards the screen. Others, as in my case, had to send it back to a service centre. My diagnosis was that the USB port had undergone some water damage and needed to be replaced (£27 in all). Like yourself I tried everything from new batteries to new SD cards and nothing worked before having it repaired Good luck
The problem is your micro usb charging port, there is a big thread about it.. I had the same problem but fixed it by bending the connector in the m-usb slot slightly. Try cleaning the port if that doesnt help you might have to bend it or have to send it in.
Edit: as for the echo, its actually a pretty common problem with this phone. I simply dont use a case anymore..

Galaxy SII charging even when Not connected to a charger

Hey guys i've been using my S2 fr a year & a half now . I didn't quite face any issues before but now
after i updated it to the UK Jellybean as it took a lot of time to reach India .
I've got this issue that when i charge my phone & disconnect it , it still shows on charge & gains a lot of heat .
When the device is switched off & charged it restarts on its own & then switches off & starts charging & when needed to ON the phone it has to be connected to the charger , or else it won't start but just show the charging icon ( as it shows when the phone is charged when switched off).
I did a factory reset but all efforts in vain .
Please Help ....
Boot into clockworkmod Recovery , go to Advanced and try wiping the battery Stats. Maybe that could help.
Try another battery in the first instance given how long you've had the phone, also clean the battery contacts on the phone carefully with a cotton bud or similar & isopropyl alcohol. If those two things don't help, could be the USB/charging circuitry on the way out (which is a problem we see on here fairly frequently).

Slow charging questions posted many times. Usual fixes are: replace charger and lead, go back to fully stock, replace battery, phone internal charging circuit is faulty.

S2 Not Charging

OK I bought used Galaxy S2 2-3 months ago & it was damaged or something (screw the seller) & it is not charging and battery draining very fastly even when the phone is locked & the phone is not connecting to PC and Odin too failed to detect my S2 . I bought a desktop charger & I have 2 batteries for it and it take almost 8-9 hours for fully charging the battery. My brother said it is short & and it can't be repaired. Actually he repaired the mobile from a mobile repairing shop & the phone worked perfectly fine (charging & connecting to PC)
but just after a day it returned to its original position i.e not charging & battery was draining. My question is that my S2 can't be repaired? I want to ask what exactly happened to it (can't understand what is short).
Any help regarding this would be really appreciated :good:

Perhaps he meant a short circuit. It means that there's something damaged inside your phone and the current flows somehow as it normally shouldn't flow.
After reading the description of the problem I first thought that maybe your USB port is damaged. That would explain the charging and connection problems. But it doesn't explain the battery drain... I don't know. Decide on your own if you want to try another USB port. It costs about 15 Euros and it's not that hard to change. Just google about this topic.
Hope this helps somehow.
