The constant crash and reboots could probably be fixed by flashing it with Odin. If it had an issue with flash or RAM, it would probably not even boot up or would crash midway through booting. The google apps crashing suggests a software issue rather than a hardware issue. The one not charging probably has an issue with the connections on the board, might be as simple as corrosion or something more complicated.

@@breakcoregirlxd Rainy said it, Unless you can refurbish your own screens there still is very little profit on samsung devices unfortunately because the OLED cost just as much as replacing the device. apple still utilizes LCDS for a majority of their devices so there is one factor in how and why repairing an iphone is cheaper and more profitable. I also buy in lots fix and resell, i typically stay away from samsungs just for that reason and only buy 6s plus 8 plus and XS( theres a reason i left out IPhone 7, 7 plus and iphone X out of the picture and you are also a Phone tech like me youll know 7 and 7 plus are plagued with audio problems and Iphone X splitting logic boards due to weak solder in that specific model. Too much work to repair and resolder rather than just fix the ones that dont have board issues. I still make good side profit however I try to keep any bad phones from making their way back into this resale problem we have today. We fall into that problem where people have had a bad experience buying used phones. I can go on and on and. but i think you techies get the idea. LMK what you think. I live in an area in California where some people will pay the Premium to get their originall device working again but its like 1/10 people a mojrity of people use apple products... I still cant get rid of my Samsung S8 plus

@@breakcoregirlxd i worked for a local shop who refubished samsung OLEDs i learned the process on s7 s7 edges but eventually they had to close because not many people needed that repair locally. we also did apple repair but our company was well known for only samsung glass repair. Of course the owner had the process down and showed me. 1. Its not as easy as it looks. 2. He had all the equipment and tools. So it was somewhat easier as the machines did most of the work but you still had to be delicate in the process and many times that screen will get damaged if not done correctly and can lose touch in certain area, gain black spots, etc. And thats $200 down the drain because. OLED..... Now we are -200 and only profit 100 from the customer.. Little to no money made. Owner relied on apple screen repair sales and used phone sales.

Hello guys im going to upload tonight the grand final from champions league, the problem is that i casted it in spanish, i was going to re-cast again some of the best games in english, but im so so tired guys, hope you understand it, the most important is to see the gameplay and all my passion is there with the spanish casting, i will upload the best games and the whole series will be below the video, hope you understand it, i wanted to cast but im so tired and i know what happen in those games, so recasting would not be the same passion for sure. Sorry for this, we still love this game.

1. it's international model and BL unlocked - you can also flash custom binaries but probably storage dead 2. you can see the IMEI in settings
You should definitely do some board level repairs on those phones , especially the not charging one. Hopefully all 3 can be fixed!! (Maybe look into PMIC for the not charging one, seems there are some issues with it on the s8)

I have a US S8 parts phone that turned on and charged just fine (completely smashed LCD/FrontGlass/Rear Panel) before the battery swelled up in storage. I quickly removed that battery and just have it sitting on my desk. You’re more than welcome to it if you’re interested. Not sure how much shipping would be to Australia, but if it’s cheap enough I could send it to you to make your lot worth it or send it for cost of shipping!

Hey Huge! Great video. For the one black S8 That did not boot I have a feeling that the bootloader it corrupt. If you plug it into a computer when you get working parts for it and it shows up as qdloader 9008 that's how you would know. If you look around you can find some firmware files. I have not been able to find bit 6 yet but I will keep looking.

My old Zte blade vantage used to reboot itself randomly, it eventually gave up and stopped accepting power, but the components were heating up really fast
With trash motherboards, You can always try heating them up with hot air gun. Have helped me few times. If there's some bad soldier point/connection has change to restore it. Have one samsung 9001 that was brought back to life with heat gun, my relative been using that for bout 2,5 years wo any problems :)
that was pretty dope
hey hugh where do you get your replacement screens and tools needed for the job would love to know so i can get in the business
4:49 this motherboard has NC written on it, which means Not Charging. 6:16 this motherboard has ND written on it, which means No Display.
For it to charge you gotta put the charging coil bc theres a protection system that in the coil
Idk but S8s just seem so cool to me. Like, theyre SO aesthetic
Hugh, what temperature do you set the heat to when you use the hot air?

Try to swap wireles charging coils. I think there is a temperature sensor on the black plastic cover. It prevents battery from charging if phone gets wrong values from this sensor. It could be broken. There is small chance to fix it because the phone charges wirelessly but still... And flash the second one. Maybe someone tried to root it or flash it with wrong build.

@Hugh Jeffreys Hey i got something to test for you :) I have two Galaxy S7 edge Exynos models that were showing no signs of life. One was my own that went black after a dropp. I tried with Disconnecting the batery from the motherboard or thought it was a loose connection but nothing changed after a full disassembly. Then i left it disconnected from the Battery for 2 weeks in the Frame. After this time i was so confused that it bootet right up with no issues as i reconnected the Battery. In fact im writing this text from this Phone. It still has no issues after 6 Month of using. Don't know why i had 2 boards of this failures but you can test that with the dead one too. Maybe it helps. :)

I know you don't work on samsung phones often but you cant charge them without the wireless charging pad because it has the battery heat sensor in it and the phone denies any power if it doesnt know the temparature.

Thanks Hugh. It's the charge controller that's broken mate. Although I doubt you ever read comments since you never respond to any.
In the state of no-charging problem, I believe it's either the port's fault, or a faulty charging ic
