As long as you didnt rooted it etc it definately is covered by the Warranty
Looks like a Glueing fail wich gets worse when the Phone is in Use due to the Temperature differences

So its Defective from factory not because of bad using or anything like this

I have the same problem, I can't use my warranty because the person on eBay I bought it from had the phones shipped from Hong Kong. Pretty bloody annoying.

[Q] s4 antenna or modem/baseband issue

i have a gt-i9505 itv variant, with last wanamlite rom (v 3.1, 4.4.2 stock based, odexed, etc...), flashed after last itv available update (modem/baseband: xxugnj8) and a full wipe data/cache. i remember it seemed to run everything ok, but i didn't try it too much time.
recently i bought a new midframe and i followed an ifixit tutorial to swap it with the old one, because it was full of scratches and splinters.
the new one has a different color, it's darker but it's ok because i have the s4 black edition battery cover (bought before separately, replacing my old and broken blue one).
i noticed on the top left corner (i *think* it's the wifi/bluetooth antenna, not for sure) of the old it was written "GI9500 #32-4" while in this new one there is "GI9500 #31-2". i thought it was because of the color, but now i started to think i mounted an incompatible antenna with my country frequencies, because my phone now can't stay connected to bluetooth car for more than a couple of minutes and has a very poor wifi signal.
3g signal it's ok, but i can't try it with 4g (no carrier coverage in town).
so, what can it be? a modem/baseband bug, a custom kernel/rom incompatibility or an antenna not compatible/with bad behaviour? please help!

...although knox warranty was void, i sent on an authorized service center and it was "repaired": thanks samsung. (well, it's returned with OTHER problems, but at least wifi and bt were repaired.)
and many thanks you all, of course. xda community always solves my problems.

Unless it's a software issue I don't think they check to see if knox is 0x1

galaxy s5 rare charging problem

hey guys,
i have the wiredest problem.
i've phurched a new galaxy s5 and when i connect it to the charger, a charging icon appears but the battery % dosent go up, only down.
i've downloaded many battery analysing app and theey all seem to think that everything is fine, that the current flows and all, but the % dosent go up!
i switched a battery and a cable and its definitly a phone problem (i can charge the battery in another phone)
some suggested that i sould replace the charging port but it looks completly new and fine, and also cost quite a lot of money to replace.
is there any other soultion?
thanks!!

Sorry I encountered the same problem on my old s3. I finnaly solved the probleme by changing the micro hdmi port. Sorry I know you won't here this but i search everything. I replace myself it's not so hard. I do it because my s3 was in ending life.

It does sound like the charger port.....
The replacement parts aren't that expensive (under £10 off eBay).
Just make sure you get the right one....
Look at the pictures......

These parts are device variant specific......
It would probably be a good idea to match 'rev' versions too.....that was certainly the case with the S2....If the wrong rev version board was put in, it led to signal problems etc......

Issues with severely low Wifi/Bluetooth range - How to replace IC Module?

Hi everyone,
I made an account just to get some advice on this issue, hopefully someone can help me out.
I've been using my Galaxy S4 (I9505 - Verizon) since its release and I've had few problems with it up until now. about 2 months ago, the range at which my phone can connect to wifi and bluetooth severely decreased. It seemed to have happened out of nowhere, there was no inciting incident. I have to stand within about 1-2ft of a router in order to catch a signal from it. When I do that everything works just fine, but the second i move even a step further away the connection completely drops off.
There isn't much documentation for this specific issue online, although the S4 is known to have some common wifi problems.
I've determined that it is likely a failed Wifi/Bluetooth IC module on my motherboard. Repair shops are asking for way too much money to fix this, so I'm going to try to fix it myself. I'm a fairly advanced user and feel comfortable doing it on my own. I just wanted some advice on the procedure of removing and replacing an IC module and what tools are needed to do so.
I am going to order this Wifi/Bluetooth IC from ebay:

What else will I need to get it attached? Will I need a real soldering torch? Or will a hair dryer be powerful enough to heat it?
Thanks in advance for the help!

I don't think hair dryers are enough.
Besides, a hair dryer can't focus the beam, so you might end up loosening the solder on some other parts as well, which may lead to other problems.
But I don't have any experience with soldering or opening up phones, so what do I know?
But you could always check YouTube.

btw toke me a while to find the manufactor( https://www.awinic.com/Public/Uploads/uploadfile2/files/20200515/20200515145039_5ebe3bbf4b71e.pdf) of this ic but i want to know if there is something better(compatible) like texas instruments?

I know this is a little off topic... But seeing a post for the OP8Pro with a 2022 date on it is refreshing! Been searching for days for information on how to flash a ROM/TWRP and/or ROOT and most posts are from 2020. I was beginning to think the device/projects were abandoned!
While on the subject, if anyone has recently and successfully accomplished any of the things I mentioned, would you please share? I have over a 100 tabs open right now from all the bricking I've had to come out of over the last 5 days!
Thanks!
