    Why is my brand new S6 so slow on Wi-Fi?

    Is there a way to disable DNSet? Often it interferes with SMS and Cell calls. When is Samsung going to fix all of this?

    Why is my brand new S6 so slow on Wi-Fi?

    IT'S A MIRACLE!!!! As you wrote, I downloaded DNS Set, and turned it on. Then I dumped the wifi, and reconnected as you said. 100% bandwidth now! Minor con: DNS-SET notification is constantly coming up when you swipe downward to see notifications. Small price to pay. Also, as I suspected...

    How do I fix the slow internet speed on my Galaxy S6?

    Re: how do I fix the slow internet speed on my galaxy s6 First of all, the issues being reported are not simply due to a router or crowded channel. Most users have never had problems with their Wifi on any other device before. The last thing customers (most are not tech savvy) want is to...

    S6 stopped charging!

    I think the new phone comes in tomorrow. The phone fully charged, but isn't connecting to my PC again.

    S6 stopped charging!

    I found a VZ store that had a wireless charger, and it did start charging. So fast forward to tonight, and I got to turn the phone back on, and the battery message says 0% plug it in the wall. So I do so, and now it's charging again???

    S6 stopped charging!

    Great, after under a month of usage, the phone just quit taking a charge the other night. I've been having a lot of issues with the micro-USB port as well, with it not be seen by my PC and such. Verizon store ordered a warranty replacement phone. They had no wireless charging pads in the...

    Is anyone returning their S6?

    Unfortunately I've had month a month or I would return it. What a disaster. This phone has so much promise, if not for stupid bugs that really wreck it. The WIFI problems at the top of the list.

    How do I fix the slow internet speed on my Galaxy S6?

    Re: how do I fix the slow internet speed on my galaxy s6 What people are suggesting amounts to voodoo. Samsung should have fixed this by now, it's that simple. This is a widespread issue with their phone or Android or both.

    Transfer of files to PC via USB stopped working

    The update was on the phone, but I don't remember what was updated. However, the other night phone decided to stop charging, and I had to have Verizon mail me a new one. So it's possible all my issues were due to a faulty micro-Usb port on the phone. Should have gotten the Droid Turbo instead.

    Why is my brand new S6 so slow on Wi-Fi?

    Re: why is my brand new s6 so slow on Wi-Fi At a friend's house, the wifi seemed to be better, but junk at mine. I would try the static IP suggestion, but the phone decided to stop charging, and I had to have Verizon mail me a new one.

    galaxy s6 camera is weird.

    Good to know, I'll leave the film on mine then. Camera works great. Complaints only that the LED flash is blindingly bright, and the voice activation of the shutter doesn't work if the phone is more than 6 inches from you.

    Transfer of files to PC via USB stopped working

    This was working fine, and now all of a sudden, probably after an update, it stopped. I cannot get the phone to even begin a USB connection to my PC, only charges. I've tried fiddling with every setting imaginable. Incredible frustrating that the simplest things will not work on this phone...

    WiFi issues

    Facebook, Wikipedia, also don't work. It's ridiculous.

    Why is my brand new S6 so slow on Wi-Fi?

    I've been all over the internet, cannot find a solution to the HORRIBLE WIFI with this phone. This is completely ridiculous, it's widespread, and Samsung has done NOTHING.
