Has anyone experienced any wifi calling issues since the update? I've tried rebooting my router, turning on airplane mode, a factory reset and restarting my phone but I haven't had any joy.

So I got the push for the software update on the Galaxy s5. Now it won't keep a charge. My husband's s4 is having the same issue. Anyone know how to resolve or if Samsung is pushing a fix?

I'm sorry, I don't know how to search to see if this problem has already been posted. Not sure if the problem is the last update. I have a Samsung S6. About a week ago my phone stopped charging on the Samsung wireless charging pad. (it works when connected to the cord) I thought it might be the pad (only had 1 year) but tried on a friends pad and won't charge either. Any ideas? Thanks!

I also had the heat/battery drain issue after the last update. The Verizon dude fixed it as soon as I walked into the door. The fix is...
Settings/More Networks/Mobile Networks/Network Mode. The Samsung update changed this value to Global Mode. Change it back to LTE/CDMA.

I had this issue last month, workaround was to leave wifi switched on permanently (not ideal). Issue was still there after a factory reset, and resolved itself "randomly" before the update I recieved the other day. Was very frustrating!

The updates are very big usually over 600 Meg. Simple to avoid. Just make sure that on the phone memory (NOT the add in SD) that you only have 300 Meg of space available. Copy a bunch of movies via the cable, or duplicate one movie to take up space. Simple cure.

My S5 has done a push update...without me asking. Since then phone will not start but goes into an Android Update screen for 8 mins. Also screen running really hot and had the screen blacking out so I could not use it. Really disappointed.....loved the phone till now. Also did this while I was out walking on holidays and needed Google maps to get home. Ended up taking me 4 hours and lots of wrong turns. Not happy.
