Samsung Galaxy S8 no longer starts - what you can do

If your Samsung Galaxy S8 smartphone no longer starts, various causes may be behind it. Therefore, to fix the problem, it is necessary to proceed step by step. However, it is not always possible to solve the error yourself, which is why a repair by a specialist may be necessary.

What you can do if your Samsung Galaxy S8 no longer starts

The smartphone is a constant companion. That is precisely why it can be annoying when it suddenly no longer turns on. If you cannot start your Samsung Galaxy S8 despite repeatedly pressing the power button, there are several possible causes.

1. The battery may have been deeply discharged. If this is the case, connect your smartphone to a power outlet and wait for some time. It may take several hours until your smartphone can be restarted.
2. In addition, it may be that your device has hung up. Therefore, press the power button and the volume down button for several seconds and wait until the logo is displayed. If that didn't help, press the power and volume up buttons. Usually, you should now be in the bootloader menu, from where you can boot the device.
3. If this also did not help, it may be that your Samsung Galaxy S8 is defective. In diesem Fall überprüfen Sie, ob Sie noch einen Garantieanspruch haben, um das Gerät direkt von Samsung reparieren zu lassen. Alternativ wenden Sie sich an einen anderen Fachmann, um das Gerät zu reparieren.
