Samsung S24 repair keeps coming back — what am I missing?
I've been facing a frustrating issue with Samsung S24 repairs lately. I've had multiple customers return their devices after I performed screen replacements, claiming the touch functionality is still glitchy. I've tried using both OEM and aftermarket screens, but the problem persists. I’ve checked the connectors and even cleaned the motherboard, but it seems like I’m missing something crucial. Any insights from fellow shop owners would be greatly appreciated! I’m also starting to wonder if it might be a software issue, given that I’ve had a couple of customers mention they were using third-party apps that might not play well with the hardware. Has anyone else dealt with this? What steps do you take to troubleshoot these types of repeat failures?

I’ve had similar issues with the S24 models. What worked for me was doing a thorough check on the motherboard for any micro cracks or damage that might not be visible at first glance. I also found that some aftermarket screens don’t play well with the device’s touch sensors. I now source my screens from a reliable vendor who guarantees compatibility. If you haven't already, consider using a software tool to perform a factory reset after the repair; sometimes lingering software glitches can affect performance. Hope this helps!
One thing I’ve noticed is that the S24 can be quite sensitive to water damage, even if it looks fine initially. Make sure to check for any signs of liquid exposure. Also, have you tried updating the software to the latest version after repairs? Sometimes, these phones require the most up-to-date firmware to function correctly. I recommend keeping all your diagnostics software handy to rule out any software issues as well.
