Galaxy S6 :: Why Does It Take So Long For Apps To Install
Apr 18, 2015
It takes forever for applications downloaded from Google Play to install. One app took over 1 hour to install. This is unacceptable. I have high speed internet access with a high speed dual band wireless Netgear R6 200 smart router.
why Samsung/Google have this ridiculous limit?It is incredibly annoying. I have a 32GB SD card installed with tonnes of space left on it and loads of space on the internal memory too, so why can't I install APPS on it!I have moved as many apps as I can to the SD card, but I am still running out. I shouldn't have this problem, so why is this limitation in place?
Like the subject says: does the Google play store automatically install the arm64 version of apps like Google chrome ? how can I check that? I didn't found anything about it when looking in the "about " section of the settings
How long does the battery last? Not everyone upgrades to a new phone every year. By the s6 battery being non-removable it assures Samsung that you will upgrade more frequently. Dead or faulty non-removable battery(new phone). Dead, faulty removable battery(new battery)...
Why does this expensive phone have to send long sms via mms?? I have an old �10 phone which can do this, it just chops them into chunks and then send it out. My mates who have iphones can send long sms's.
Just got a refurbished D2G, the Nav app takes a long time to long on > 10min sometimes. Anyone else having this issue? Called VZW up they claim that google pushed out an update which breaks Nav. I called BS, then he tried to blame it on the hurricane.I have been through 4 of these phones, all with different annoying problems, Getting tired of it.
When sending a long text SMS message it seems to reach a character limit then switch automatically to a MMS media message instead. I have unlimited texts but only 20 media messages per month. Is there any way to stop this happening so I can use texts only and save my media messages?
When the phone is kept idle the charging time says 45 min but when i start using it da charging time goes upto 1 hour 30 minutes??? Do i need to change my battery. I am using s6 edge ....
How do I create a long exposure in Pro Mode? I cannot seem to get this down. If I hold the screen I get the AF/AE lock but how do I actually take a 10 second (or whatever) long exposure pic?
Just got the Galaxy S6 a few days ago with Verizon. I'm using the samsung messaging app it came with, and noticed that every text that I receive from someone that is more than 160 characters gets split up, rather than sending as one long one or showing as one long text bubble, I'll 2, 3, 4 message notifications.
how to stop the awful beep sound during calls for the Galaxy S5? I know there is a thread on this for the Note S4 but the way to turn it off on that device (the enhanced lte trick) is not available/ a feature on the Galaxy S5. The tone is so horrible sounding and hurts my ears.
-Yes have check minute minder- it is off -The sound occurs on speaker, while using headphones, or just holding the phone to my ear. -There does not seem to be a pattern for time or frequency of the tone. -The one thing i have noticed is that it always occurs when I talk to people who have iPhones, but there does not seem to be a consistency with droids.

It's not really a big deal, but it's a little annoying.
However just today, a long text message was sent and I got 8 messages/8 notifications. And each message definitely had only 60 or 70 characters. Was this because it was so long that it was spit up into 8, but then why were they not split up into 160 characters?
Gives me 3 options: Installed apps.Installation files Installation sett. Now when i click 'Installed apps', nothing happens and i am thrown to the previous menu after 30sec or so. My software version is V 20.0.005.
So this has been going on for some time now. When I install any new apps, once it is finished no icons show up ANYWHERE to shortcut to the program. I go into application managment and its there. For example, the facebook app does not show an icon and I cannot find it even in a "universal search". Yet when I go to application managament, it says its properly installed. I recently did a full wipe on the device including 3rd party apps and still it does the same thing.
I purchased an HTC one m9 used unlocked. As soon as I activated the new sim card it promped me to download OTA updates, but when I try to TWRP won't let me.
no app from the google play store will install. i've restarted the phone, force stopped google play. all i see is the download bar (the green and white bar).
Iphone will not install apps/updated apps. just stits there and says waiting.. getting aggrivated with my 200 dollar phone, and the apple support ******* just want me to pay for technical support.
I just acquired a used iPhone 2G. It has been jailbroken and unlocked, but I am not using it as a phone right now. It has been restored and registered. It is connected to wifi and safari and email works fine.
When selecting an App to download from the App Store (I've tried a couple), after pressing the green install button, the button turns into a smaller green rectangle. Press again and it turns into a blue rectangle, and nothing happens.
My daughter uses our old iphone 2g as an ipod. Recently, she has been unable to install apps that she previously had on the phone. They won't install from itunes either. When trying that way, the icon disappears off the iphone page. These are apps that had worked on this phone previously. Now NO apps will install. I have restored to factory settings without success.

yesterday I bought the Galaxy S6 from Tmobile in store and requested to have my number ported. That was around 4:30 or so. It's been almost 20 hours and I really don't know why it's taking so long. I called them last night and they said there was no errors. It's being ported over from Sprint prepaid.
