I've had my Verizon GS5 for over a month now, I've done a fair amount of reading, testing, etc to get up to speed with everything. Overall the phone functions fine. But I have a few issues and I figured I'd put it in one thread to not be a total pest.
First off, I've been taking pictures of various objects, including landscapes, people etc. One thing I can't seem to understand is that every single picture of my son is blurry. Granted, he is 16 months old, so always moving. But even the slightest movements are blurry. Shouldn't the shutter speed be good enough to get smaller movements? I even tried the pictures with image stabilization on and it doesn't help.
Second issue. Right now even when I turn off wifi, it continues to auto connect back on within a few minutes. I've turned off wifi notifications, always allow scanning, etc. Still does it. I don't want to always connect to my work wifi, but if I need it I want to be able to connect.
Last but not least, I have to reset my phone every day. pull the battery for a full reset. If I don't, the notifications, voicemail, features like one handed operation, all stop working. The lag gets overwhelming as well. Every time I reset it works pretty well again. Should I have to reset my phone every day?
For reference, because I know the assumption of a new poster is always that they are clueless; I've worked for a cell phone company, had 40+ phones in the last 10 years, and I have a little tech experience. I'm no expert but I'm listening and learning all the time. I also came to Samsung from the iPhone 5s. I'm not biased towards any phone, I like them all and love the competition.
Thanks for reading my novel, let me know if you can help with any of my issues!
