Samsung Gear Fit 2 wont charge!!!🤬🤬(How I fixed it)

[@rickjurado2398]

I was skeptical about this, as I tried both cleaning the contacts with an eraser, q tip, press the contacts on and on, button configs, then tried this last step before ordering a new battery. But after about five minutes, the Fit started charging. I guess on YT, there are some valuable pointers; not just click bait. Thanks man.

[@Pumkin3412]

It worked thank you

[@kocdon12]

I've been trying to get mine to work for MONTHS. Cleaned, took apart, reset, took it in for service. This is the ONLY thing that has worked. I cleaned the contacts multiple times thinking that maybe the watch was just done for. The "jumping" was perfect. Thank you so much sir!

[@lennartdekker9958]

I threw my Gear Fit 2 away, but my wife needed an activity tracker, so i looked in the garbage, found it and used your method. Worked exactly as you said! You're a legend!

[@poojakaushik4918]

It actually works ...Thanks a Ton... tried everything else ..nothing worked but this really worked... My samsung fit 2 battery was almost dead since last 2 yrs and now it worked... thank you so much

[@anishasha86]

OMG...I'm so glad I found your video because my gearfit was dead as a doorknob. I sat there and did what you said over and over again and the charge sign would come on for a millisecond longer each time until it suddenly started charging! It's a miracle. Thanks heaps! 😊

[@Crash0verride83]

Hello sir, just to let you know that 5 years later, you're still helping people and saving watches, thanks pal !

[@tiki422]

I just purchased one brand new in a sealed box at a garage sale for $10.00, I tried charging it, with no luck, then I found your video I watch it and follow what you said and do....OMGoodness, it works, thank you so much, God bless you, I am so happy.

[@Overlord_Rei]

Holy crap this actually worked.. You saved my watch from getting tossed out into the garbage.. You are awesome!! Thank you.

[@candidtiger4021]

Holy crap!!!!you're a lifesaver, I've been trying for hours to get my watch to work after about 3 years of being dead!!!! Thank you

[@dannyjohnson6422]

I never comment on videos, but this is the exception. Thank you! Worked very well.

[@Lawgiver777]

Hadnt used my for about a year or so. I did this. And as soon as I started to give up hope, it turned on. You, my friend, are a genius! Thank you!!!!!

[@melanarheina1322]

The last time I used mine was 4 years ago, and I saw another video on how to recharge it. Then after a month or two it stopped. And tried the same thing but pressing the on button did not work. Yours came up and when you mentioned 'jump start' that clicked. So, I tried it. After less than 5 tries of taking it off and putting it back on ....the lightning remained and now its working! I've had mine since they first produced it, with the same charger too. I've only replaced the straps and its been through ALOT of sports usage. Thanks for this most useful piece of info. You helped 'relit' my gear friend again....hopefully for longer this time!

[@nursingoncallinc]

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT BUT IT ACTUALLY WORKED THANKS FOR SAVING ME SOME MONEY TO BUY A NEW ONE.

[@jimmysloppy]

No joke!! Just bought a brand new in the box one from a pawn shop for $30 because it would not turn on or charge... did this little trick for 3 and a half min and POW!!! Works like a charm!!! Will be keeping my eye out for more...lol

[@martaii9182]

This is probably one of the BEST help videos I have ever seen. It REALLY worked on my Gearfit too! Thanks a lot mate!!!👏👏👏👏

[@roya450]

I can’t believe this worked. Thanks heaps.

[@KirkStephensCAN]

This actually worked to fix my problem. Good old KZbin and the KZbinrs who make it what it is. Thanks for the video!

[@greysonchan6459]

oh my God this video is amazing I spent two days browsing the internet trying to find a video that worked and I finally found this is the video is amazing!!!!!!!!!!!

[@fpswolfy1271]

Glad I could help!!

[@aaronmcquaid4443]

@@fpswolfy1271 I found a video that said to plug it into the computer instead of a charging port and then I came upon your video and I saw that it looks like yours is plugged into the computer, so I thought" what the heck"! and wah-lah it is finally charging. Thank you!

[@fpswolfy1271]

@@aaronmcquaid4443 Glad I could help!!!

[@stevehand322]

You are a GENIUS!!!! the same as you I have been trying different button combinations, I left it over night on a mains charger, nothing. Plugged it into computer and it would flash. I have just sat and tried what you have said for not even a minute and it is now charging!! Thank you so much !!!!!

[@nigormara]

Amazing mate. whoever finds this out is a real genius. I was trying for hours to get this working and then stumbled over your video. Another tip I can add is that in every try press the power button 10 times to have the battery reset. This way every try would bring a flash symbol once and disappear, after 15 to 20 tries you will get the charging status

[@mtbikingaddict]

I tried your method to turn this watch back on and guess what? IT WORKED. Thank you. I tried several other ways that you TUBErs recommended but they did not work. Thank you for having this on here

[@EmmaBlackEUC]

I tried cleaning the contacts as well, nothing. This worked fantastically, only took about 10 or 15 times, removing and re-seating on the charger. Thank you sir!

[@pankajpawar8582]

Lol... Can't imagine... Tried all hard things before...nothing worked... But at last finally your small simple solution worked!!

[@Rodrigo30Horas]

I can't put in words how crazy it is, but after all tutorials about it, button combination, quick twists, hit combos, what really worked at my Gear fit2 PRO were this video steps... Actually, it didn't take 5 minutes... As soon as the lightning symbol appeared, I quickly take it off the charger, and put it back again, and then, the lightning appeared again, but this time, it didn't disapper... So... Lots of "thank you!" to you, sir, for sharing this trick. Save me a bunch of money and time.

[@maril7993]

When I was about to give up I found this video. The only thing that worked. Thank you very much!!!

[@lilsxybear6]

OMG i was so skeptical about this hack as I had tried everything and have been hunting the internet for days. You are amazing! It totally worked. I was getting so frustrated that i would have to buy a new watch. 3 years of not wearing it and now its charging! thank you for sharing

[@mariodaniels9701]

I tried the other fixes out there with no luck. It didn't want to charge, then I stumbled upon this video and thought, "I'm desperate, what the heck"and this one actually worked. Great job.

[@fpswolfy1271]

Glad I could help!!😁😁

[@naedenestewart5424]

This is legit! I tried everything to get my watch up and going again after about 2 years of not using it. This didn't even take that long either. Thanks you so much!!

[@laborn323]

my son wanted to use my old watch and omg! this freakin worked. it's the 4th video I've watched. Thank you

[@sallysharp2681]

I just bought a mint condition 'dead' gear fit2 off ebay for £12. Tried this out and sure enough, after a few minutes I started to get the odd flash for a second, then eventually the flash stayed on and it went to 1% and started charging! Thank you so much, a nice cheap new gear fit on my wrist 🤩

[@Andrew-tz5ih]

So yeah, let me go ahead and jump on the comment train here and tell you that I appreciate your video, even 5 years later it works. My fit 2 got pretty wet probably more than it should have and stopped working altogether, I thought it was done and was about to order another. After a few weeks I plugged it in just to see and it came on which was awesome but then it said "can't charge". I tried it a few times and nothing, watched your video and BOOOMMMM!!! Rapidly clicking it in and out of the charger (mine is different than the one in the video, like a little clip with only two contacts) maybe 100 times and the warning went away and now it's charging. Thank you for posting this I appreciate the help, CHEERS!

[@samurai5454]

Thought this might've been a bunch of fake reviews. Gave it a go anyway, it really does work. Thanks for posting this!

[@lisa-marieshy9673]

YESSSS!!! THANK YOU, I thought it was a goner but tried this and low and behold it worked!! I tried cleaning the connections with alcohol and qtip, charging with a pc, button combos but jump starting it on/off the charger worked after a few mins! Thanks 😁

[@omarp.7631]

Worked... Thank you sir.. 3yrs of not using.. nothing worked.. this . This got it going.. awesome.

[@willuminati]

BRO THATS INSANE!! IT FRICKIN WORKED!!!😆lol. I did everything you said you did in the beginning. I even opened it up to see if something was disconnected or wet. NOPE. Just needed that jumpstart🤌⚡ Bless you for making this video 🙏🙌

[@stellatam7447]

Your suggestion worked! Jumpstarting the battery by tapping off and on the dock worked! Thanks so much!

[@naeemrafique7338]

Just tried it. It worked. Only used the watch for a week and tried it after a year and thought it was dead. Thanks for video mate.

[@kaplaugher]

THIS IS THE ONLY METHOD THAT WORKED!! Glad I didn't stop after the push power button while in charger failures.

[@earleiciap693]

Wow....this really worked. I had not used my watch in about a year so the battery was completely dead. I tried this for about 5 minutes and it worked! Thank you!

[@hannahmurphy8753]

you are literally a life saver. I put mine in for a trade in and when it came to charge it up to factory reset it NOTHING worked. i panicked because I knew there would be a fine for sending back a useless device (baring in mind this device was in excellent condition, just not used for about a year) so I tried everything.... Then I came across this video and I'm so thankful! You're an Angel.

[@rebeccajames4994]

Perfect! Took on and off charge about 7 or 8 times, it's now charging. Thank you!🎉

[@mattsidebottom7603]

perfect thanks! thought mine had had it. it took me over an hour of taking it on and off though. also pressing both buttons when the electricity symbol wouldnt come on anymore kept it going. finally it charged

[@stevopy7131]

It just works for me also. Thanks also for sharing this great experience 👍 I have just purchased one of them from a store in 🇭🇹 haiti. it did not work since it was out of power for too long

Almost threw my girls gear fit 2 in the trash cause she moved to apple and I don't have one of these flashy watch things, so seeing hers was dead and doing the same thing, I tried your method and sure as sh*tting it worked!

Every other attempt failed, this was my last resort. Thankfully this method actually resolved it for me. Thanks bro.

[@gotmama2]

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Like you, I had my Gear Fit 2 in a drawer for a couple of years, then it wouldn't charge. All the button combinations, cleaning contacts, etc. didn't work. I was close to throwing the damn thing away and not wanting to spend the money to replace it. You saved my smart watch!

[@hilosoaringgo5261]

This happened to me last year, found your video which was the only solution and it worked. Just happened again to me as I haven't used my watch in over a month. I was like where is that guy's video lol and darn if I didn't find your video, did the 5 minutes of on and off and it's charging! No way would I start taking it apart. This is the best solution. 👌 also, I shouldn't let it go dead for so long ha.

Thank you!!!! I tried multiple other video hacks for this, BUT this is the one that finally worked! Up to 4% so far, and wasn't able to turn it on. Someone gave it to me since it never worked for them!
