Instagram is known to do that.

Do you have Verizon also?

Yes, I do

I have 3 Verizon Note 5 phones.($269 each, thanks to the $400 off promotion)

I keep one as a wifi-only device(no SIM card inside the phone). That one has the best battery life(obviously) and can last over 7 days with wifi in the "always on" mode with daily usage of about 30 minutes.


I assume most people keep their smartphones for at least 1 year.

It will be interesting to see what the Note 5 battery life is like after the non-removable is 1 year old.

Even in best case scenario, I predict the battery will have 80% of life left.

What I really like to know is how much Samsung charges to replaced the internal battery of the Note 5.

Hope it continues after about 6 months to a year.

Battery will last a long time if you do not over charge, that is what happens i seen it happen on removable battery where they over charge it or charge it when it's at 80, 90 etc etc then battery gets swollen and gets damaged i seen it before on removable battery and this happens cause they over charge the phone or keep it plugged all day at there house and that's a bad thing to do.

I have a quick question for you guys. I used package disabler pro and disabled bloatware and then reenabled some of the things I needed like Facebook and Instagram and such. But for some reason, any notification that's supposed to say "saved to gallery" shows up as some weird com.sec.android.app.smartclipservice or something like that on the lock screen only. Inside the notification shade it's fine.

Anybody know how to fix it?
I tried enabling everything and rebooting but the problem is still there now. It bothers my ocd.

They show up fine on both my phone and computer so I'm not sure why they're broken for you.
But yes I did enable everything and rebooted the phone and the problem is still there. It won't go away.

Yup I tried it and still no change. Not sure what to do at this point. Don't want to have to factory reset this whole thing.

You have content hidden on your lockscreen.

 

[Karan Jagdev]

You have content hidden on your lockscreen.

That's true but I've had that enabled since the first day. Hidden content just hides what the image is but it doesn't alter the title of the notification.
For example, Facebook notifications will still say Facebook, not com.facebook.katana
And this problem only started after disabling bloatware and now I can't fix it no matter what.

Go to lock screen and security, then notifications and these are the options under notifications on lock screen.

Yeah I know what you mean. But what I was saying was that before Package Disabler Pro, I used to have the notification content hidden, and it wasn't showing "com.sec....blah blah" until last week. It used to just say "Saved in Gallery" or whatever.
So Package Disabler did something that's causing it. But I can't undo it. I like having my notifications private.
If there's no way to fix it, I guess I'll live with it. *sigh*
I guess it's a small price to pay for 10 hours of screen-on time.

And these 3 are enabled?

 

[Kelly Kearns]

What are you saving that picture from and how?

 

[Karan Jagdev]

Just checked. And yes those 3 things are all enabled. Also, the notification is from me using Smart Select with the S Pen, and saving the selection to Gallery.

Ok.. Let me try something.
