But there are so many more things Oreo breaks. I'd rather have personalized message tones than a different clock style on the lock screen.

A I'm down to 40% after 9 hours. But more disturbing to me is that the phone is overheating. That's what used to happen with my S5, which I had for 3 years. Until the 8.0 update, this S8 NEVER got warm, let alone hot.

I got the update yesterday. Battery fully charged. I've been reading this forum for 5 minutes and it just dropped to 99%. Before the update, I was getting about 12 hours on a charge. I'll be curious to see if it changes at the end of the day today. UPDATE After a couple hours with minor use...

I've just spent 2 hours trying to figure out where my custom text message notification tones went. FINALLY found an answer. Why the heck did they take this feature out? Always used to know who was texting me by the tone. No longer an option. Where do I go to complain where I'll actually be heard?

I don't use Always On. I figure it uses more battery. Although it would be nice to use as a clock at night rather than having to hit the home button. As for the lock screen... The dang "clock" is so big it covers the cute picture of my grandkitty. 😂 I'd like just the option of where to put the...

Mdnsd just returned and I haven't even been using the phone. Location still off. Battery at 83%

Yes it has stayed away since turning off location. The battery shouldn't and hasn't drained 4% in the time it takes to write one reply. I could be on my phone for an hour and have the battery only drop 15%

I will be interested to see what you find out. I haven't been able to do a phone update in over a year because I have no storage room even with all my photos and music on a micro SD card. And as an experiment, I restarted the phone and turned off location services. No mdnsd usage but the...

Yes I'm having the same issue with the mdnsd which is why I replied to this thread. You look in Settings, not Setup. My battery is fully charged and it cleared usage. However, my battery is draining so fast, it says I have 4 hours left on it. The only thing I've opened is my mail and this...

I'm having the same problem since Monday. I can watch my battery drain on my S5 . Even if I'm not using the phone, it drains about 10% an hour. Never had Firefox or drone app. Battery usage from it is 18%. Total of over 7 hours. That means something is running in the background because I...

Re: Please help! I just got my S5 & I need case advice. I really like my Otterbox Symmetry. It doesn't add much bulk to the phone yet covers it well. I did not use the screen protector that came with it. I purchased a tempered glass one that was suggested by the customer service rep at AT&T. I...

Personalized ringtone doesn't "stick" I have a new Samsung Galaxy S5. I have set personalized ringtones and personalized text message sounds for my friends and family. I know how to do that! The problem is, some of these don't "stick" and what I mean by that is, even though on the contact info...

2 days???? I am fairly active on my phone, but I have to charge my new S5 several times during the day. I do have all sorts of push notifications, which I need to turn off. But if I don't use the phone and leave it on, it's about 50% after 8 hours. That's not a whole lot better than my S4 I got...

I am having the same issue. Although SOME work and others don't.

I had the same problem connecting to a Panasonic stereo system that had previously been connected to my old S3. Doing a memory reset (instructions in manual) did the trick. Apparently, you have to remove the old Samsung device out of the memory before the S5 will be recognized.
