s35ym., 09 Oct 2024They will do that stupid thing for most repairs. Tell them ... moreUnfortunately, Samsung's own warranty and repairs policy that forces the repair people to upgrade the software. You may refer to it in Samsung's own website.
The worst part is that they take zero responsibility for any issues after a software update at a service centre, unless you plan to spend some extra cash for an authorized system downgrade.

This phone is still great in October 2024. Its a pity that it won't get android 15 because it,s still performing very very well. No slowness, no hiccups, good cameras, no problems with the battery or with anything else (besides the back panel in hot countries)

Doing software update without customer consent is a blatant consumer right violation and you have every right to get it sorted.

They will factory reset and update your Android OS to the latest version. This may lead to reduced battery life. The best battery life is to be had on the original OS that came with the phone.

Sparrow, 02 Oct 2024So after 1.5 years of postponing the detached back panel re... moreIt is a very simple fix, you can do it yourself. You will not mess up anything. Just remove and clean the excess old glue before applying a new one so it will fit nicely.
You can purchase a B-7000 phone glue for a very cheap price online. I did this on both mine and my uncles A52s.
Heres a simple instruction:
1. Remove back panel, then clean the sides of the phone and the plastic panel that has the old glue in it.
2. Apply phone glue on the plastic back panel and on the sides of the phone.
3. Put a scotch tape on all sides of the phone to hold the back panel and let it sit and dry for a day (or maybe a couple of hours will do) then remove the tape.
And its done. Feels like fresh from the box! Hope this helps

So after 1.5 years of postponing the detached back panel repair (as I always have case on) on my 2.5yo A52s, I'm planning to get it repaired at Samsung service center as I need to handover the phone permanently to dad (switched to S23).
A few questions for those who've already got the replacement done:
- Is the glue on the new back panel going to be as crappy as the current one since both come from the same Samsung inventory?? (Then replacement makes no sense)
- Has anyone faced back panel detachment issue even after replacing one that came factory fitted?
- Are there chances of them messing up something else in phone while fixing this?? Probably battery or speakers? (My current phone condition is pristine and am getting 8+hr of SOT with 5G, touchwood)
- If the back panel is being replaced, do I've the option to go with any color I want?? (subject to availability at service center)
- I enquired them and they said the IP67 rating will be retained after they provide the bill. Except being waterproof, is there any other advantage really of getting the panel replaced? as phone will always have the case ON
(maybe I'm overthinking)

Rose, 23 Sep 2024is this phone good in 2024? any issue in a52s 5g?Yes. If you do not get this model in your country, try buying the Samsung A73 model.
Just ignore those who are addicted to updating and upgrading the apps and OS.

Back to my beloved A52s after 2 months with iphone 15 pro max. ios is awful. Keyboard is auful. So many functions is awful. Even the weather is wrong. Feeling locked and depressed, finally sold the iphone. Overall a really bad experience. Galaxies are 15 years ahead in terms of software.

General comment about android :
Google has blocked the ability to change the notification tone for SMS (messages) app suddenly. This affected all phones with android 14.
My other Samsung phones with android 12 and 13 do not have the above issue.
