Galaxy S9+ won't power on after motherboard replacement
Hello.
I replaced the motherboard on my Samsung Galaxy S9+.
Current symptoms:
• The phone charges normally and shows the battery percentage.
• The backlight turns on when I press the volume button while charging.
• However, the phone will not power on.
• The power button does not seem to respond.
I tried:
• Holding Power + Volume Down for 10 seconds
• Holding Power + Bixby + Volume Down
• Reseating the motherboard
• Tightening all screws
The phone clearly has power (charging works and backlight responds), but it will not boot.
Could this be a power button contact issue or something related to the frame contacts?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Is this a good question?
