I bought a phone in March of this year. I have had nothing but issues with it, and samsung has a full record or issues and dates.

Today I was told that Samsung has a 'policy' - a policy that i have never seen, that is NOT on line, that was NOT given to me in small print when I bought my phone, and that I am not allowed to read.. but a policy none the less.. this policy says you have to have your phone sent into a 'repair' shop 3 - yes THREE times before they will consider replacing it. If anyone asks me for a recommendation for samsung.. it is NO - dont go near them

          Themi, 14 May 2015My s5 batery got 2 or 3 hours to charging from 99% to fully charged. How I solve it plz help meThat is normal. It is a mechanism built for the phone to prevent it from overcharging. The last 1% is actually getting 0.3-0.2A of output power from the charger. This slows down charging.

            If you get a set of samsung hs3000 bluetooth earphones, they have aptx technology, and so does the s5, the sound will blo you away.

Who cares about feat... moreThat can easily be your signal carrier/provider, and not the phone. Where I am right now (on another phone model.) I couldn't get the web page to change, so I put in a code into the phone pad, changed the fast dormancy settings....and..good to go. I have a different samsung phone than yours, so I don't want to mess your phone, but maybe someone on here has the code for your phone to give it a try.

                              Worst phone so far - signals dropouts - basic use of a phone is defeated. Who cares about features when one cannot have signals on the S5.

                                Samsung S5 is a nice phone overall but I have experienced serious signal issues on this model. Infact S5 that I has this serious signal drop outs issue which is unbearable for handset of high price range. I hope makers must have some solution to this highly irritating issue of signal fluctuation.

                                  The phone s5 is a beautiful device but since then the software got updated to lollipop
                                  I am facing problem in camera. It becomes black with an error and I have read others views and noticed many peeps facing this problem. Samsung must provide a way to go back to the old software version coz it is of no use having your software updated when it comes with other problems.
