    Galaxy Note 5 Opinions (currently have a S5)

    Thanks for all of your opinions! The only reason why I'm hating Verizon is the mega bootloader they put on my phone to prevent downgrading OS through ODIN! The only other carrier in my area that is reasonable is AT&T and even then they aren't great. Posted via the Android Central App

    Anyone Else? Cannot hear me unless I switch to speaker and back!!

    Verizon is the culprit, something in the OS. My Galaxy S5 on the latest firmware offered by VZW had a similar problem. When I click on speaker on my phone it doesn't switch to the speaker microphone. It's been doing this on my phone since day 1 and it's only on Verizon that I've noticed the...

    Galaxy Note 5 Opinions (currently have a S5)

    I'm sure there is a million other posts like this, but what is the final "verdict" on the Note 5. I currently have the Galaxy S5 on Verizon with it's "mega bootloader" and it has been a great phone. This month I have an upgrade; is it worth making the upgrade to the Note 5? If so, should I...

    Not seeing available network

    I'd take the phone to T-Mobile in hopes of a replacement or contact Samsung if your phone is in warranty. EDIT: I do not have any experience with the company of T-Mobile as Verizon and AT&T are the only reliable companies in my area. Posted via the Android Central App

    SIM card trouble OE1 update.

    Hello, I have a Verizon Wireless GS5 on the OE1 update. It seems now that I've updated, the phone will not allow me to insert another SIM and connect to that network. Any suggestions? Posted via the Android Central App

    "Android is Upgrading"

    I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 on Verizon (SM-G900V) on the latest lollipop build (OE1). Whenever I have to switch on my phone from being powered off, it tells me "Android is Upgrading" ever since I did the latest update. Any suggestions on a fix for this? Posted via the Android Central App

    I have a "virgin" Galaxy S5, what should I do next ???

    I would avoid the update as long as possible. My phone (Galaxy S5 Verizon) is on the latest update and it runs like crap. Battery life is half of what it used to be and the phone is a lot less responsive. So I'd stay away from lollipop. As far as what to do, it's your phone so you should make...

    Battery sucks

    Thanks for your help. It seems to do this about every other charge. This charge has drained out about 40 percent in 3 hours but I haven't stopped using it much. Posted via the Android Central App
