How to fix "Check Battery Cover" error in Samsung Galaxy S5
Usually, there are tons of reasons to consider that error messages appears in the phone screen without apparent reason. It could be caused by a glitch in the system or the device has a serious firmware issue. In this instance, I'll tackle one of the reports from Galaxy S5 users saying that "Check battery cover" error message keeps on showing in the device screen several times a day. So, what we have to do now is to isolate first the problem and consider all possibilities until we can reach to the conclusion and fix the issue. These are the methods that we want you to do:
Step 1: Restart your phone and remove your SD card
This method is a very basic one, in which, it refreshes the memory of the phone and fix any glitches in the system that might causing the issue to occur.

But there were some reports from other users saying that after they rebooted their device the error message is no longer appearing in the screen. To do so, just turn off the device and remove the battery and press the Power button for 7 seconds. Now, place it back the battery and power on your phone and observe if the error message still appears. If the problem continues, follow the next step.

Through Safe mode, all downloaded applications you installed on your phone will be disabled temporarily and only the pre-installed ones will be running in the system.

Find that one by uninstalling each app you downloaded starting from the recent one you installed. Follow these steps to boot in safe mode:
