View 19 RepliesI have a Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G901F (Unlocked) and yesterday I updated the OS to Lolipop using Odin.
Since that update I have signal issues (No service most of the time) and I want to downgrade it do KitKat then update it with the official version of Lolipop using Kies. Am I going to be able to do this?
I want to downgrade is I am getting bad battery life draining 5% in 15 min. My phone is a G900A s5. How to downgrade to Kitkat 4.4.4
View 2 Replies View RelatedI upgraded the operating system for my S-5. Besides hating the multi window interface, it drains my battery in about 6 hours.
View 2 Replies View RelatedOk, this is my problem, I have protective leather casing (I hope thats how you say it on english) and on Kitkat, I could slide/answer with finger without opening casing, it has a hole in it, so now on 5.1.1. we got "Reject with message" and answering slider is moved up.
Since we cannot disable "Reject with message", is there an application, to show me kitkat style answering screen to place slider exactly where it was on kitkat android, so i can use my casing without problems?
I had the same problem, with clock after upgrading to 5.1.1. and I installed app, to get back clock on location where it was...

After downloading lollipop, my mobile G3 getting hanged while making calls. After removing and putting back the battery it switches on.
View 5 Replies View RelatedGot the N5 in 2012 with 4.4.4 on loved it, no problems then. Then lollipop came along causing battery drain and random crashes. Waited for 5.1 hoping for fixes, installed it battery life improved but still crashed randomly. I put it down to the memory leak problem. I decided to downgrade. I downgraded back to kitkat 4.4.4 after unlocking the boot loader. Now I have random crashes running Kit Kat.
PS If I carry my USB battery pack around and keep phone plugged into it the phone never crashes. Its just not a very mobile phone then!!
why isn't released a AOSP ROM yet? Are there any problems/locks/closed sources.

I have the "SM-G920F" And was using Android 5.1.1 Lollipop.
How can i create a full backup from my xperia Z2 (not rooted), include System etc., before update to Android 5.0 Lollipop and how can i rollback after Update to Android 5.x ( if i don´t like or to many problems)?
View 5 Replies View RelatedLet's face it: we all have to deal with those automated call systems from time to time. They can be particularly annoying if they block you from connecting directly to the person you are tying to get by entering an extension number.
You can create a contact and enter in the number. Next press Sym and tap "Wait(,)" Two is the recommended amount. After pasting, type the extension. Tadah! Now you have attached an extension to a phone number.
I updated my Sprint Galaxy S5 to Android 5.0(Lollipop). A feature of 5.0 was supposed to be support for multiple user accounts and to let a friend login with his/her gmail account and use the phone if they broke/forgot there's. I've searched the settings page and all and haven't found this feature on my S5. Am I doing something wrong or was this left out on purpose.

View 5 Replies View RelatedMy wife has the Lollipop update on her Samsung Galaxy S5 and not without issues. For one the update has completely screwed up her ability to connect to our home WiFi network. But a smaller less trivial problem is that the screenshot function no longer works or has been reconfigured. Any other way to screenshot of the S5 or is this function broken in Lollipop?

View 2 Replies View RelatedSoon, I will install lollipop update on my samsung galaxy s5 smartphone. I know there's lots of comments about the insulation someone well some didn't go well. I'd like to make the installation as smooth as possible. What are your recommendations for moving from Android 4.4. For to lollipop. I had TouchWiz when I got the phone, but I wanted Google now. There's many differences, especially in the apps menu. Will that make a difference in insulation? Are there any other changes I should make before the update?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have read all the problems with the lollipop update, and have been trying to avoid the update. My phone has now downloaded the update but not installed it. Each time I switch on I get a reminder that the update needs installing which I ignore. I would like to try and find the update and delete it from the phone, but I don't know where it is located or what it is called. I have disabled all the update options so if I can get rid of this file, no more reminders that it needs to be installed.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI updated before to OA2 5.0 Lollipop and i experienced the camera failed issue. The screen is just black when launching camera app then it crashes. A simple restart fixes things but it re-occurs once in a while.
I updated last 2 weeks on latest build OD3 and device seemed fine until now. I again experienced camera failure and needs to restart the device everytime.
It seems very random and i dont know what the culprit is. Its getting annoying. +
Tried cache wiping as of today. lets see how long it goes before it happens again
I get a popup saying contracts has stopped working. I also have some video's apps from Swagbucks locking up the phone but that could be the apps. When I frist installed lollipop I guess 2-3 weeks ago a lot of stock apps issues a master restore fix all but the popup for contracts. The pop up appears after I close thee phone. contracts or message app. Clear cache. cache partition and did another master restore. I guess until there a update or the s6 comes out I am stuck with it.
