How often do you have this issue?

Not very often, but once every few days

umobile sucks. period. its my sim2. 80% of the time, its at like 1 bar coverage.

i have that. my phone occasionally hangs when i try to unlock. then my phone becomes unresponsive for a good 10-20 secs. blank screen.
definitely does.

My reception is okay, sometimes it's bad, -95dbm in my room
Same! Sometimes I tried pressing both the home button and power button also couldn't wake the phone up


QUOTE(Bombgen @ Jan 28 2016, 08:36 AM)

strangely i only got those problem when using certain old themes and finger lock. Newer theme release dont have this kind of problem.

One more thing is you guys can check the app optimised option if any of those related to sleep apps being put in there. it might be the cause.
*
How to see if it's an old theme or newer themes?

I like indigo flat and material dark, and the font too

However the standby time is not decent...

clear facebook cache and disable it alone will actually improve your standby time.

use facebook mobile from chrome.

Already done that, still has lots of room to improve in standby time

does note 5 fingerprint scanner gets better everytime we use it? like it makes the copy of our fingerprint more complete each time we unlock it? i think apple touch id has that, but not sure if samsung has such feature, because i dont notice it getting better since day 1, i think it has gotten a little worse, quite a lot of time it cant recognize my finger

for me,

during the "scan" or "record" of my fingerprints

i make sure i placed it in multiple positions

for example, my thumb, i make it 360 degrees all around and also majority of the scanned areas are HOW i will unlock my phone with my thumb.

and the rest at weird positions laugh.gif

so far it works most of the time

but sometimes still cant detect properly sweat.gif
*
I do that too, i even put 2 copies for 1 finger (and it works 80% of the time)
the other finger which only 1 copy, it works 60~70%...

and the sleep wake issue just happened again, couldnt wake it up even if i spam click power button for almost 10seconds

I tried the apps, looks beautiful but didn't help in battery life, if anything it drains a little more than without it

In case you didn't know, developing mobile apps is a full time job. It takes a lot of effort to learn programming and come up with ideas and developing it into the apps we're using in our phones. That is their work.

my hp  left 35% but fast charging shown 1hour to fully charge..

it is normal or my charger going to kaput?

Normal, from 0 to 100 official time is 90mins
It slows down the charging gradually around 80 or 90%

QUOTE(MeToo @ Feb 3 2016, 10:47 AM)
Guys...

I notice the back of the Note 5 is real shiny like... so it might get easily scratched(?) so I was wondering is there any clear film in the market i can apply to protect it from scratches (and easily replaceble every 2 months or so).

Pls dont suggest any casing etc... I never use casing/glass/plastic/covers etc for my phones in the last 20 years tongue.gif

oh and the battery is abit strange... I lost about 25% overnight from midnight to 6am... with almost zero activity..
*
I bought a matte finish screen protector for the back, but it only covers part of the rear, coz note 5 has curved back so it can't cover entirely... Luckily my dbrand skin arrived at the same time, so I applied the skin straight away... Wasnt a fan of the glass back as it gets smudges easily

strongly agree what u said. human are greedy.
and i noticed Note series is 1 of the best price protection series from Samsung. the price quite stable.
just got my gold note 5 today, 2nd hand but look new. 2100 with tempered glass & back cover. 10 mths warranty remains. Satisfied.

btw, can we double tab to unlock note 5? im using Nova launcher. can double tab unlock but dont know how to lock. thanks in advance.
*
i thought Nova prime can double tap to lock ?

Note 5 camera is very good, but it has some Samsung signature like

-oversaturation, it isn't that bad, just a preference I guess

-It also sharpens the image, but has been tuned down in note 5 (it was very noticeable in note 4) this could be a good thing because it often capture the texts on the board in class when I can't see from behind

-viewfinder isn't reliable, the picture u take is vastly different from what you see in the viewfinder. I think this definitely needs fixing
