samsung galaxy s5 active

No matter what I do, if something is within 3 feet of my phone the pictures come out blurry as heck. It has a hard time focusing, may have to tap 5 or 6 times. Then, when it looks focused on the screen, it STILL takes a crappy blurred pictures. I sell a lot on eBay, and would like to use my...

Phone: Galaxy S5 Carrier: Verizon I updated to android lollipop 5.0 this morning. So far, i hate it (im not used to it). Anyway, when my phones screen was off (locked) previously, it would turn on when i received a text message. Now, nothing. I have to actually unlock my phone to see i received...

Hi guys, Would u please, consider giving me some insight into what the f# I'v managed to do to my phone, a Samsung Galaxy S5 Active, model SM-G870F. Last night I tried to root my device using Odin and towelroot as explained on xda. It all went well and all the values/codes in Odin_v3.07.zip...

Within the last few days, my GPS accuracy has been terrible. It's sometimes a 1/2 mile off. I have not changed anything on my phone. Really strange.

Hi all, I purchased the Samsung S5 Active 9 days ago. It's a great phone except the battery life on mine is terrible. I know other people who get a day and a half to two days out of their phone. I would be happy just to get through a whole day. I got a new battery, and that did not solve...

When I turn my S5 Active wifi off, it will turn itself back on. I have read forum after forum and have yet to come up with an answer. I have smart network switch off along with every option in the advanced settings menu. I have removed app one by one one and couldn't find the problem. I used...

So sorry if something along these lines is already posted elsewhere. I looked but didn't find anything. Basically, this: I spilled beet juice on my S5 Active a couple of months ago. The home button became kind of crunchy when I pressed it but still worked. Now it is no longer crunchy, but it is...

Buying it from AT&T on the Next then paying it off right away providing I can find a way to get Lollipop on there. One reason I stayed away from Android is that it takes Carriers too long to allow the new OS, and I like the New OS but I also like the Samsung S5 Active. Also once unlocked is...

Hey all, Hoping one of you can recommend a canvas type holster that fits the S5 Active. Been looking at a few Maxpedition versions but not 100% sure they'll fit. Not using an otter box, just have a edge bumper type cover on it so it's not much wider than stock. Thank you!

Hi, has anyone seen the samsung galaxy s5 (active) have an issue with turning on the screen while you are on the phone, it keeps pressing keys while I am on the phone. I have a protective glass on the phone maybe that is causing it.

How do I lock the Sound Mode on? Something changes the mode to Vibrate or Off and I lose my phone and text notifications.

So this is my first Android phone, from an iPhone . On my iPhone each app used to have its own notification sound, not one that i set for it but the distinct sound that came with it. on my galaxy they all have the same one alert tone. Is there anyway I can make it so each app had is own alert...

I have loaded music onto my SD card but when I play music from there, and then try and exit out of the program to do anything else on my phone, the music stops. What do i have to do to not have this happen?

Hello Is it possible to DISABLE AUTO email addresses popping up every time I wish to log in to Facebook? I have disabled predictive text via Language & Input but that does not seem to help Thank you

I have noticed that when I am talking to someone on the AT&T 4G network, using my speakerphone, the other party says the sound is breaking up. It does not do this while talking on Skype or Hangouts. It doesn't appear to be a hardware issue, probably just AT&T's crappy software. Just wondering...

So after a hiatus of far too long I have decided to pick up a new phone and that phone just happens to be the Galaxy S5 Active. My reason is two fold: 1. I have not experienced the Samsung flavor of android yet and 2. I am always buying phone cases and I figure with this phone I will only need...

I'm getting an error when I plug in my phone to USB to use SideSync that: DirectX was installed when I installed SideSync & I've updated to the latest version. This is a brand new machine, only had it a week. Anyone else experienced this issue?

I recently bought an s5 active and unfortunately the only color my local AT&T store had in stock was the camouflage green; I was hopping for the plain black/dark gray. Does anyone know where I could go to buy a replacement battery cover in a different color?

For some reason I lost a bunch of my contacts. Then I had 2 of every contact that wasn't lost. So I went through and successfully deleted all the doubles. But now my notification bar has a sync icon that won't go away. When I pull down and open the notification drawer, it says "Too many...

How can I change the appearance of my text message to become conversational? Currently I have to scroll to the top to see what the recipient says when I reply it appears at the the bottom.... areal pain in the butttttt!

Ok, this is weird. I have two Gmail accounts (one for work, one for personal). My phone is set up using my personal account. But if I go to send an SMS, my message is being sent with the name and profile pic of my work account, but the email of my personal account. However, If I go to my...
