    How to stream from a Galaxy Note 5 to smart TV without using internet.

    Works good. I use the fire stick in my car, after the initial setup was completed. I had to turn off Dolby sound option on the fire stick, or my sound was garbled.

    I forgot the backup password on my Note 5, how can I reset it?

    That's how I understand the new 5.1 security policy works. I guess they are thinking your phone is locked when stolen, and someone does a hard reset to make it theirs. In the past, that's all you had to do and you had a new phone.

    I forgot the backup password on my Note 5, how can I reset it?

    What Kelly said...Yep, if you don't remove the Google account before a reset, you will be required to log into the Google account, even after a hard reset. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Just returned my iPhone 6s Plus... honest review comparison w/ Note 5

    I switch sims in the phones quite often, sometimes in the same day, and have for years. No problems. I did that when I was on the unlimited data plan, and also my current family share plan. The only thing I would have to do if I wanted to, was make sure the Iphones' IMEI number was in the AT&T...

    Just returned my iPhone 6s Plus... honest review comparison w/ Note 5

    I currently have both and enjoy each. Yesterday playing around with the cameras in the house in low-light, the N5 easily beat the 6S+. I haven't been able to try it out in the daylight yet. I've read all the comparisons, but it's nothing like seeing it for yourself. As for the N5, I haven't...

    Does it have MHL???

    I'll give it a shot. Actually, it was under the questions and answers on amazon that someone said it worked for them. If not I'll return it, and keep using the miracast module that I use on my S6 Edge. I'll keep you posted.

    Reviewers on Amazon report that the new MHL 3.0 Amazon.com: Samsung MHL 3.0 HDTV Adapter - Retail Packaging - White: Cell Phones & Accessories and How to Connect Galaxy Note 5 to TV work with the Note 5. I just ordered one and will let you know when it arrives tomorrow.

    Note 5 Titanium Silver

    I have the same phone. Do you get a "LTE" at the top notification area on your phone with AT&T? I have AT&T, and so far it just says 4G in the notification, but if you go to setting, about phone and services, it does say it's on LTE. I previously had the SIM in a iPhone 6 plus.

    S6 has no HDMI, MHL or other video output

    Not sure about your pioneer appradio setup, but with my setup posted above, I connect my S6 through the miracast device. Which is connected to my hdmi input on my Kenwood head unit. This provides a full mirroring.
