Dear GSM ARENA,
Please can't you report to Samsung that note 5 duos users are facing network problems (no 2G and 4G networks) after marshmallow update. Most of the comments here prove that.
We reported this issue several times but Samsung is not listening to us. Maybe Sammy will listen to you.
Thank you.

Wally, 12 May 2016I have got a note 5 sm-n9200 dual SIM a few days back! After upgrading the phone to android 6.... moreI think your device is CDMA and not GSM. They use to manipulate the os and write the os that supports 4G after upgrade your phone will go to its original os and it will show 3G. Pls check check your network mode.

I have got a note 5 sm-n9200 dual SIM a few days back! After upgrading the phone to android 6.0.1 the 4G technology disappeared from network operators!!!! Now the phone has only 3G/2G!! And I can't connect on LTE anymore! Can samsung explain this issue! I bought the phone targeting 4G connectivity, now it's not there!! What can I do with such an expensive device without 4G technology!!! Is there any new Update release on this variant to fix this issue?

It's not Hong Kong version (right version for HK is SM-N9200), it's Taiwan, Philipines, Malaysia version. Please change taht, it's confused for peoples on the way to find updates for their phones, that can do big problems like brick/dead phones. Thanks.

iNadeem, 10 May 2016So friends please advise me if I should upgrade to MM or stay with lollipop?I would suggest you to Go for MM. It will actually make your device really fast , and your figerprint also. I have made my one MM, I didnt faced the battery issue or the network issues. Its Awesome in one word.

Post MM issues - try disabling SVoice after clearing cache. Wait 2 to 3 battery charge cycles. Battery life improves and is better than Lollipop.

You can use only one 3G network on one sim.Dual sim doesn't work 3G at a time. In that case Internet gets slow on the 2G sim slot.
