samsung galaxy note 5

Hi all: I am new to Samsung having had an iPhone since the 4. Last one was the 5s. My daughter talked me into the Note 5 and I do like the size of the phone. Although massive against the 5s it is not too heavy and the larger screen is great. I am now looking at all the things is can do and...

I just got the Marshmallow update last week and now none of my music applications work correctly. Im having issues when the screen times out and locks, my music stops as though it is buffering. I then have to turn on the screen and unlock the phone, only then will the music start again after a...

Just wondering if anybody else is having a problem with "network connection"? I am!! Can't connect to some sites... emails won't come thru unless I open and refresh... can't upload to some sites??

My nexus 5 just broke and I need a new phone asap. Was contemplating b/w NOTE 5 and S7. I realize that the S7 is superior in almost every way, including performance and battery life, but I personally like the bigger screen of the note 5, the s-pen and the overall aesthetics of it much better...

My phone is so slow now... I don't understand! Getting on the net is becoming a hassle!! Anyone else having this problem?

How do you do it? Do you have to set up your phone again? Is it the same as a factory reset?

Did Verizon slow down the push out of M? I have not gotten an update notification yet. Seems much slower then updates in the past. {Once they started the update anyways} I don't usually go and force the update. Usually just wait for the natural release. Thanks

Hi, Is it possible to do a fresh install on a Galaxy Note 5, thus removing all carrier restrictions? I know you can root the device, but I'd like it to keep automatically updating etc. Thanks in advance, Matt

My son was messing around with my phone and locked me out. Of course I cannot remember the backup password, or if I even set up a password. Is there anything I can do before having to do a factory reset? I have tried android device manager, but since the phone is already locked that will not...

Hey guys, I got my note 5 about 6 months ago and today i dropped it. The screen stays blank but the led light in constantly on. When i try to hold the power button the noise for turning the phone off and on comes on but it does not finish the note, if you know what i mean, its sort of cuts...

I am currently using the JBL E50Bt headphones with my Note 5 and they sound really bad.They sound extremely underpowered.I have the volume all the way up and it isn't even close to being too loud to listen to they just seem like they would if you were listening at a normal volume level.

I just upgraded to Marshmallow (sprint) and I noticed my battery seems to suck now. Also I noticed wireless charging does not work. I'm going to try a factory reset to see if this fixes. Anyone notice the power saving option is different now? Before it lets you turn off/on some options but this...

On my Note 4, I was able to only display contacts with phone numbers. I also was able to sync my contacts with their facebook accounts as long as they were my friends. I can't seem to do these things anymore on the Note 5. Am I missing something or you just can't do it?

My Note 5 on SPRINT is receiving a rather large update now. 1362.41 MB It is 6.0.1

Long story short I received a faulty screen for my note 5 after I dropped and cracked the screen....while removing the motherboard from the screen the connector for one of the antennas snapped off of the motherboard.... It's literally stuck in the antenna cable.....can I use some type of glue to...

The Samsung keyboard BEFORE the marshmallow update was fine, never had a problem. Since the update, there are 2 big issues with it: 1. No more personal dictionary. You can no longer add custom words on the fly. Why the hell was this removed??? 2. When i'm texting, every time I end a sentence...

Back in December both my husband and I both bought a Note 5. Ever since we got these phones all of my husbands contacts and calendar events have been showing up in my phone! My stuff does NOT show up in his, it's the weirdest thing ever! Then last week my husbands phone went out and he was sent...

I've been trying to customize Google Now but I just keep getting Network Error Please Try Again message. I've been trying for the last couple of days but nothing. I'm able to do everything else on my phone but set-up Google Now. Is there a setting somewhere I need to click on?

I was doing putting away my phone goofily and accidentally activated a one-handed type of operation, but instead of reducing my whole screen or just keyboard, it reduced my active app (Google Hangouts) to a smaller size, but I could still see the home screen and manipulate apps behind it. There...

Hi guys, I recently got a new Note 5 (previously Note 3 user) and rooted it and installed Xposed Module. Just have some questions regarding some things that are annoying me: 1) When I go to phone, then keypad and search by names (ie I hit 5646 to search for John) it brings up some John's but...

Has anybody had a new speed charge lock screen start popping up in the last week or two? This just started and its rather annoying. It forces you to swipe it off the screen before you can thumbprint your security to unlock your phone. There's 3 dots at the top but the only option there is to...

I recently upgraded to Galaxy Note 5. It doesn't have the feature 'Hover and Zoom' like my Note 4 which i could turn on in 'Accessibility' under 'Settings'. does any one have a fix? should i return Note 5 and wait for Note 6?

I'm trying to install an APK file but its not installing. It would be set to install but then just say "Not Installed". I had no problems installing apk files on my Note 4. Any idea?

With no SD Card on the Note 5, is there a way to save the pics directly to the cloud and not have to keep a copy on the phone to save storage? Coming from the Note 4, I didn't have to worry about space. I guess the same would go with files to (docs, spreadsheets, etc.).

Had Note 5 since Aug 2015. Use S-pen LOTS. TOP HALF came out of phone but long end stayed inside. Able to remove it with tiny 3/32 screwdrivers from 11piece set. Glued it back together but afraid to stick back inside phone. Have heard Amazon and eBay knockoffs either break or don't allow ALL...
