If the phone allows you to input your fingerprints again also make sure you conduct this by placing finger at different angles with your finger with every single input, just slightly move your finger each time.

Jackyboi, 10 Sep 2019I already went for few time. They also tried to charge it f... moreSounds as if there could be e.g a problem with the connection inside the phone with the battery (possible dropped the phone, just a guess or ) or it could be just an issue with the software.
That's quite shocking that the Shop just scratched their heads, thats terrible service.
Did the notification appear when the service centre charged the phone up? If not, I would try another cable.
Are you sure it's a battery showing with the exclamation mark and it's not indicating that there is a problem with the connection between the the charging cable and the phone? Which would indicate the cable or C connection is faulty.
This person seems to of had the same issue that you described (although it's hard to tell) and found a solution that tbh it's a bit strange but claims it worked for him or her. Worth a try anyway.

I would consider doing a factory reset also IF the phone is charging normally and the only issue that you have had Is the Alert notification. If problem persists I would be looking for a 2nd opinion from another Service Centre. And if the warranty is still valid I would certainly not have left the shop until something was done.

MS, 09 Sep 2019My latest update is July 1 security. anyone got next update... moreI know that people have or will receive(d) the August update for the S8's. I've recieved recently the August for the S8 Plus myself. You are probably aware but just in case anyone was not, not everyone receives updates at the same time and will depend on factors such as the country/region or even your carrier.
There can be weeks between the first person recieving an update and the last ro recieve an update. I know for a fact that there are many have not yet received the August update, so I wouldn't worry about it too much :)

If they released S* 6gb/128gb after an year then they should give one more android update considering 2 android update for the same variant.

Are you saying that your phone charges normally with no problems at all. The only issue that you have is that when the phone is shut down and the charger is plugged in you see an exclamation mark? Is that right?
Do you see this exclamation EVERYTIME the phone is shut down and on charge? or does the exclamation mark appear intermittently when the phone is shut down and on charge?
I occasional see the same thing tbh and it's always been because there has not been a good connection between the charging cable and phone. When I have a good connection exclamation mark does not appear.

Anonymous, 06 Sep 2019Battery needs replacement. Buy a new battery.Not necessarily as it could just be a bad connection in the port, a faulty cable or even the charger itself resulting in slow charging. I would even advise the user to try a wireless charger to see if the issue still exists. This would be a more sensible approach rather than instantly jumping to the conclusion that the battery needs to be replaced.
