My battery is way better than what I was getting with my previous phone. Wake up (unplug) at 5:30 AM and charge it again around 1:30 at about 35% and then barely making it to bedtime... With the S8, I pick it up from the charger at 5:30 AM and it had about 4% at 12:30 AM... it can do better...

My Gear 2 Neo has served me well with a Galaxy S5 followed by a Note 5 but stopped when I switched to the Galaxy S8. Been trying but not having any luck with connecting it with the S8. Could it be Bluetooth 5.0? Not sure what's going on but I sure as hell do miss it. Any ideas anyone? Thanks!

You're lucky... my Gear 2 Neo served me well with my Note 5 also till last week when I switched to the Galaxy S8. Been trying but not having any luck with connecting it with the S8. Could it be Bluetooth 5.0? Not sure what's going on but I sure as hell do miss it. Any ideas anyone? Thanks!

I had the same issue and it seems that if you install using the account with the credits from a BROWSER, it works okay... I used my PC to 'push' it to my phone and it worked well... Just don't use the Play store app on the phone and it'll be okay. Good luck!

Re: Rooted Rogers Galaxy S5 Lollipop Huh... turns out I had to move every single app from the SD card to Device Storage and now it's going... WTF?! That was sooo much work, first of all moving all the apps over to the SD and now basically undoing all that work and moving everything back over...

Re: Rooted Rogers Galaxy S5 Lollipop Thanks for the tip about disabling SuperUserSU. I disabled it and am still getting this message on Kies3

Rooted Rogers Galaxy S5 Lollipop So finally last night Rogers released the Lollipop upgrade for the Galaxy S5 (at least that's when I checked and it showed up as available). I rooted my phone a couple of weeks ago as the ads inside apps were really starting to get to me. KNOX wasn't tripped...

2 full months with the replaced phone, that issue never happened... guess there are some lemons floating around... Everyone still has warranty until April 2015 so if this is happening, don't wait, have it replaced! Just my .02.

Nope... my phone wasn't rooted... End of the day, I called my provider (Rogers), had them do an 'advance exchange' for me, where they sent me a replacement (albeit refurb) device, I ported everything over, used that for a few days and did not experience the inability to answer any calls...

Oh trust me, I've restarted hundreds of times since I've owned the phone.

Hi guys... Weird problem that I haven't heard of anyone else having with an S5. I did see a similar post but the other guy's phone was a Nexus 5. 1 or 2 out of 10 incoming calls, I am UNABLE to answer, the swiping right action just doesn't seem to work, the phone stops ringing but the screen...

In Canada on Rogers. Got a notification with an up arrow on the Gear 2 Neo icon. I went with it and got the watch to the latest firmware (ends in DD). You can also go to Gear Manager > Paired Device > Software Update > Update and see if it is available to you.

Even got the new firmware today for the Gear 2 Neo... still no Watch Styler in the Samsung Apps store... wtf?!

Thanks bud... hopefully this will be rolled out to Canada soon and I'll finally have Watch Styler up and running on my setup...

Thanks so much bud, for writing up such a detailed procedure to get this going... I guess I'm just SOL, I can't find a store (here in Canada) that has any Gear 2 watches on demo... went to BestBuy (they only have the original Gear watches), went to FutureShop (they will only sell with a phone...
