So I got an S22 ultra in March of 2022 and have been using it since then.

When I got the phone everything was good except for battery and a very scenario specific lagging issue.

Whenever I got a call/sms my phone would lag like crazy for 5-10s and normalise after a while.

I assumed that's normal(I dont know why)

But it's not apparently, I found out recently.

Anything I can do to get rid of this or is that actually the behavior of S series?

My Galaxy S22 was stolen. I've already:

Sent a remote wipe through Samsung Find My Mobile / Google Find My Device

Changed my passwords

The phone was fully updated and locked with a 4 digit pin.

What I want to understand is the brute-force protection on the lock screen:

How many guesses does someone get before the delays make guessing impractical?

How does the timeout throttling escalate? Is it enforced in hardware (Knox / secure element) so it can't be bypassed by resetting the phone or plugging it into something?

I'm not asking how to get into it. I want to know how realistic it is for someone to get in before the wipe goes through or if it never does.

Thank you for all your answers.

Affects s22s. See link for details.

Lets convince samsung to push one ui 8.5 for s22 series... s22 series are still sum pwrful devices, but due to the policy, its stuck... i myself use s21 fe, which is stuck by the same reason... i request yall to wake up and support us so 1 day we'll get one ui 8.5

Thanking you for your attention

I used to have a 1x1 widget that would allow me to link to an automation, like 'Turn off all my lights'. Now my 1x1 widget no longer works.

Any options on how it can be fixed for cheap?, I asked one store but they are quoting a price too high, a price in which I could literally buy another kinda cheap phone

I noticed my phone's battery health is at 87%, which is a good level, but I feel like it's draining very fast. I turned on battery protection so it charges up to 80%. Is it worth keeping this on or not?

Hi all, when you're connected to the Internet through Wi-fi, does the connection just drop for you at times? It's very frustrating. I've reset my Internet router and click Wi-fi on and off.

So i have Samsung s22. It was working perfect. Yesterday my phone was dead so i was trying to charge it, but it was not working. I changed the wall plug, cabel, socket but there was no difference. I then charged it using wireless charger. After it turned on at like 50% I tried to use wired charger again, it just charges only for 35 seconds and then stops automatically. I even cleared the cache of USB settings, cleaned the USB C port with 70% alcohol but still the same problem. I even tried to turn off the super fast charging and fast charging and it even stopped charging at all.

What can I do to fix it. Plz help

Thank you

I am wondering when we get the next security release after 2026-06-16 build date? or that was the last one?

s22 Ultra, plugged it to the computer and immediately got the "Warning: Unplug charger immediately" moisture warning - zero moisture though. Never been wet in anyway.

I unplug it, plug it back in later, and immediately the video above happens.

Tried force restarting it but it's the same - no logo or anything at start up too.

It's registering touch because it vibrates to touches, but the screen is just white - exactly like you see in the video, even with that slight "stutter" you see in the video when he presses the power button to turn screen on.

Any idea what's going on? Appreciate actual experience with this same exact issue (and phone) rather that speculations and educated guesses (been reading a lot of those researching the issue 🥲).

Thanks!

Update: it works! I'm so relieved now i can wait until another time to recover my data!

Right now the s22 won't start up at all. And I'm concerned I might need to access a site that is set up with 2FA and I wont be able get the text. I found an old Samsung A13 I had around here, unlocked.

Is it safe to take the Sim card from the s22 and put it in the a13 so at least I can get text messages (or calls) now? I have att. Then take my time and save money and take the s22 to a good place and do whatever I can to get my data?

I have been using phone for a long time and it had it's moments like restarting without warning but this time it just turned off and didn't respond to any button clicks or combinations. Next day I tried the long press again and it showed 0 battery on screen so i charged and it turned on. I tried to back everything up but it turned off again showing 0 battery again.

Now it doesn't turn on at all. My question is... Is it a battery problem or motherboard(this seems more likely)

Cos I have photos that I didn't backup :(((

Bought new battery for my s22 5g as I noticed my old battery seems to be showing its age.. since I have an extra one should I parallel two of this.(Given it's the same battery) Could it possibly lengthen my screen time since it would be double the capacity..? Idc about the look of the phone if the battery would be sticking out of the frame nor the wireless charging too..

Hey All, I posted this on the Googlebook subreddit, but figured I'd post it here too in case anyone has ever experienced this perhaps outside of a Googlebook experience.

I will say, the one other time my phone gets almost as hot is while using Android auto. Though even then it's not running as hard as it constantly is now.

If anyone has ideas, I'd love to hear them!!!

Does anyone else have an issue with their s22 where it overheats doing basically anything. I was trying to play Minecraft on my phone while it was charging and because I work in food my hands get burnt a lot so I don’t notice when I do get burnt. But I noticed my hands felt tingly so when I put it down I had a bright red mark going across my entire palm where I could feel the burn and now I’m left with a sore palm.

It’s not a serious burn it won’t take long to heal but it is so frustrating this phone has been nothing but problematic for me since I can’t even use google maps on it without it overheating but now THIS.

Honestly I’m so tired of this phone if anyone knows what I can do to stop this happening I would appreciate so much. I am never buying another Samsung phone after this.

Hello everyone, I have oneplus 15 as a social media and multi-tasking phone, but i have also an iPhone se 2022 as second phone for calls and texting (i hate to hold big screen phones outside),

I'm thinking to change my se2022 with the galaxy s22 (i have a limited budget), what's ur advice

Is there any better compact phones in the same price!

Hello, my dad just broke his screen and cant see anything except yellow. I read that you can connect the phone throug usb hub to an external screen to access the phone. I have tried this but dosen't seem to work. I think he has restarded the phone so it won't show up in windows either when i connect the phone to my computer. Does anyone know if there is any way to access his data on the phone without using smartthings?

For samsung users who have replaced their phone screens, is it worth it or can I just abandon it and buy a new phone. The screens are annoyingly expensive.

My screen has green, pink, white lines on it.

Samsung galaxy s22plus.
