6.0 Marshmallow: Verizon Galaxy Note 5

[billykac]

One question...

Does location matter?



Just kidding.
Had to ask.

Re: Verizon’s Galaxy Note 5 is Getting Its Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow Update

I have it now installed and without a factory reset it seems to be working fine. It will take a bit of getting used to the visual and physical changes but my initial impression is that I like it.

Will downloading this via 4G (not wifi) count against my verizon data plan? I've seen very conflicting reports.

I don't think it will let you download unless you are on wi-fi...

Downloaded and installed. So far I can't really tell much of a difference to be honest. There's a flashlight shortcut in the menu now.

I also have played around with Now on Demand. That is a pretty cool addition.

Everything seems to be working just fine though.

I downloaded it over LTE at work just now. I looked at my data usage and I don't think it counted.

It will count. It just doesn't update that fast.

Lol....I don't have the update.....but I already have the flashlight. I am on TMobile so it will probably be next year before I get the update lol.

so far so good...it's only been a few hours, so this is in no way guaranteed, but standby drain during the first 4 hours has been fantastic.

Down only 9% with 40 minutes of SOT

Can anyone who has installed this update confirm for us whether the Gear VR still works with the Note 5?

This is the only thing holding me back from going ahead with the installation of the Marshmallow update.

Has anyone figured out how to remove the quick connect from the pull down notification menu? It wasn't there before 6.0 on the Verizon variant

That was there before. I use it daily (heck, I used it this morning before updating).

Pull down the notification tray. Tap the drop arrow to expose all the shortcuts. Tap edit. Toggle Quick Connect.

Something to watch for if you're a Fingerprint user. You will be prompted to choose a password/pin/pattern as a backup. Make sure you set a new one even if you had one before, because apparently the old backup password didn't survive the update (though the fingerprint data did survive).

Anyone else having WiFi issues or the "Update Google Play services" notification popping up after each reboot?

My WiFi connects, but internet won't work over WiFi. Tried clearing cache partition, forgetting network, etc.

Edit: seems to be working fine on my 5ghz network, but not 2.4hz. On to troubleshooting the modem.

Edit 2: So freaking odd, I read up on this and found the following: "It’s been known that the Galaxy Note 5 authentication error can be fixed by turning off the “Bluetooth” while the WAP is enabled, since this will change the frequency on how the both wifi and Bluetooth interacts with one another. Adjusting this should be able to solve the error with the Note 5 Authentication Error problem." Well, I turned off Bluetooth (which was not connected to anything), reconnected to the 2.4ghz network. Works now.

Edit 3: Well, even odder. My WiFi will not work when my Bluetooth toggle is on. Once I toggle off, it works just fine.

I didn't have any Wifi issues. As for the "Update Google Play Services", just tap the notification and it will automatically go to the Play Store and begin the update.

anyone activate the system ui tuner yet? it does not seem to work getting it to activate.

I got it a few hours ago . Everything looks great! Oh, and btw, the cell standby bug that occurs when wifi is on, has been fixed. I strongly suspect it was happening because of Wifi calling. The code was probably present this whole time, but lollipop just didn't have the feature. EDIT: nm, its back....
