Re: Undo samsung software update
OOOMMMGG!!! I am going through the SAME thing! I cannot STAND this update! It literally feels ruined! It feels like an entirely different phone now. It's completely drained of any type of color, and my color alerts for my Favorites is gone as well. It was one of the cool features I loved about this phone that I could leave my phone flipped over and I could see who was texting me because it was their color coming up.
I tried looking up ways to remove it too! I can't take it. Now you are not overreacting at all. Everything just feels very off about this update, and I just want it to go back to the way it was...
On Tuesday morning I woke up to my galaxy S5 demanding I download and install the latest software update, I had just woken up so obliged and began the install - it took about 20-30 minutes.
The update has ruined my phone!![]()
1. The user interface and theme is now horrible. The way notifications and notifications widgets are displayed is noisy and obtrusive. The theme for all my default apps such as Phone calls, SMS, etc. is bright white - this is painful to look at and navigate through.
2. The internet app has changed, the view and zoom level has increased and can't be fixed. The UI is also noisier and less user friendly.
3. More bloatware! (e.g. Papergarden).
I've searched heaps online but can't find anything regarding reverting to previous software versions, all the search results are about installing KitKat from Lollipop.
Can someone please point me in the right direction to undo this software update and return to normal? I'm prepared to route my phone to resolve this.
I know it may sound like I'm overreacting but I just hate my phone now, I've had 3 days to adjust and can't get over it![]()
