Ah, yeah doesn't seem like you can do that now. I've just got used to doing through the notification shade now, but can see the message on my watch so that might be why i've not noticed the change as much :P

I'll attach some screenshots to help :) so they come through like this normally Then if you either hold and drag or use two fingers and drag down on the notification it'll expand like this you can drag back up with two fingers to collapse it again if you want to :)

They do now appear like yours, collapsed together, to see the messages you have to drag the notification shade down, then drag the notification itself open to show you the messages. I don't know how long its been doing this now, i've just got used to it :p

If you pull down the notification shade, you can pull on the notification with two fingers and it'll expand it like the 5.0.1 one. Know its not really a fix, but how i've got around notifications with 5.1.1. Also no, the icons are the same as before :)

I had mine do something like that one day. My friend and I went for a drive in her car, which has pretty much no suspension so you feel every bump in the road. With all the vibration, google fit took the drive as a bike ride! Least it made me look fitter than I am haha

Without rooting I don't think there is a way to remove them unfortunately. Its annoyed me as well as i've got a pebble connected to my note, so bluetooth is never off. My old Xperia Z let you remove the status bar icons but Samsung doesn't give you the option.

Hmm, have you got any apps disabled or restricted background data to? Does it work sometimes still though?

Re: Google Music I've recently re-subscribed to google music all access, having used spotify for years, and I think i'll be stopping my spotify premium subscription. I like the way google music suggests radio stations for you, it works easier with my sonos system, and you now get access to...

You can rotate video by clicking on trim in the gallery app Then rotate, and done. With photos, you can just click the menu and rotate left or right :)

I press mine all the time, no problems at all so far. I'm sure in at least one of Samsung's promo videos they do it too, so its got to be fine :)

It looks like your AT&T firmware has those features removed, thats annoying. Bar the boot logo and an app, the Three UK firmware is pretty much the same as the unbranded Samsung firmware. Though i'd love to not have the S Finder and Quick connect buttons stuck in my notification area, so its...

Not car mode either? I'm with 3 in the UK

If you start car mode, then click the three dot menu on the main 'Hi Galaxy' screen. Then settings, then click on parking location And check the checkbox Download booster is in the notification shade, just tap it to turn on and the network icon changes. This is one that might be...

Couple of things I tried today. 1. Download booster, worked brilliantly considering my home broadband maxes out at 8Mbps, so 25Mbps is amazing for me! 2. Car Mode and find my car. Theres an option in car mode for it to automatically record your cars location when you exit it. Not only does...
