Samsung Galaxy S23 series

[pranksterz]

Jin Jialat, my S23 ultra been working fine since launch.
2 months ago suddenly back panel delaminated, so took the opportunity and went to mister mobile to change battery.
Yesterday, kana bootloop brought to 2 handphone shop all diagnose CPU dead, high chance all files will be wiped upon repair.
Jin sian leh, die before buying new phone means restoring files on new phone will be a bitch.

Oh Ok. I guess can send in without wiping the data then. Just hope the engineer won't copy the data/photos then.

If not mistaken the bedok SC doesn't wipe ur data.. other SC may wipe ur stuff even in maintenance repair mode..

My friend de S23 ultra also repair twice in a short span of a month (different issues) then dead completely beyond repair after a while .. I would typically recommend not using a Samsung flagship beyond 2 years without any Samsung care plus or warranty coverage.. bohua to repair out of pocket..

They told me 5 working days and all data will be wiped.

Go bedok branch. Seems like they dun need to wipe the phone data.

What's the best way to do backup?

Also, need to backup the following I guess?

- WhatsApp
- Gallery (for photos)

Whatsapp backup to google drive
Samsung got backup function can backup everything including ur apps

Just checked my mum S23U and the back case loose liao and open up slightly. Still under samsung care until Feb 2026. So thinking to bring to samsung.

For the back case issit due to bloated battery? or samsung will just glue back only or will change the battery also?

Want to go to the westgate one to service the phone. For this backcase issue. Can dont need wipe the phone? lazy to setup again...
