Yep, kies tells me there is an update. Remember that the phone won't Update with OTAs without a Korean sim card( or without any ).

About the battery of the phone, it is good but Android System drinks a loooooot.

Wireless AC fixed and broken again

I know the OP has already stated that the wireless AC on this phone wasn't the best, and I too had massive issues with it since I bought it (posted a couple of weeks back). However I noticed a massive improvement with the G906SKSU1ANG8 update (was maintaining 800+ Mbps throughout the house and 300-500Mbps at the far end of the garden). Was on the brink of returning the phone it was so poor prior to that update so this made me a very happy bunny.

Unfortunately with the latest update (G906SKSU1ANH2) it seems to have reverted back to it's shoddy ways and I'm dropping to wireless N once I move 10-15 feet away from the router again. I assume the issue lies with the Modem firmware, but is there anyone able to see what the changes are? Going to try and put the old firmware back on over the top using Odin to see if that makes the difference but has anyone else noticed the same? Miscom mentioned making a tar for the Modem but I haven't seen it anywhere - was any progress made so that I could use the latest software (once the custom ROM is updated to reflect) and the older Modem firmware?
[Galaxy S 5 General] chungdae:
Sounds like a carrier issue. Who is your carrier? I have ATT and have yet to have a dropped call. What's the other related problems?

You can't unless you root.

Try this:

Do this at your own risk

Open the dial pad

Type: *#0011# to enter Service Mode (Be very careful with what you do here)

Note: You need to be rooted for this to work

Once in Service Mode, do the following:

Tap the menu button and tap Back

Tap the menu button again and select "Key Input" and enter an upper case Q and press OK

Tap the menu button again and select "Key Input" and enter 4 zeroes (0000) and press OK

Wait from 5 to 15 seconds. You'll see the Main Menu

Choose option [2]: UE SETTING & INFO

Choose option [1]: SETTING

Choose option [1]: PROTOCOL

Choose option [2]: NAS

Choose option [1]: NETWORK CONTROL

Choose option [4]: BAND SELECTION *** SET THIS ON AUTO***

Choose option [4]: LTE Band Preference

Choose option [7]: LTE ALL (Or you can choose band 17 instead)

Tap the menu button and choose Back (Don't press the back key)

Tap again the menu button and choose Back

Choose option [6]: LTE/WCDMA Mode Only

Press the back key to exit
[Galaxy S 5 General] CarpeDiemPW:
Okay, so reverted back to the ANG8 firmware and all's well again! Whatever they fixed with the modem firmware in this release they must have broken again in the new one. Worth bearing in mind in case anyone else has wireless AC issues!

[Galaxy S 5 General] CarpeDiemPW:
I did a couple of times prior to the ANG8 update but nothing worked. Installing that update (and it's ANG7 modem firmware update) fixed all my wireless issues straight away. As I say, the latest release (assume it has to be the modem firmware and not a software setting but could be wrong) broke things again and I didn't want to perform a hard reset again if I could help it so just tried to put the previous update on via Odin. Again, that worked a charm so it has to be something in that specific firmware release that my phone likes. Peculiar but at least I have it to fall back to after each update now :fingers-crossed:

[Galaxy S 5 General] hamzab:
Hey,

I'm looking to get the G906 off ebay. I live in the UK, my network provider uses these frequencies,

Frequencies used on the EE network

Frequency	Protocol	Class

1,800 MHz	GSM/GPRS/EDGE	2G

2,100 MHz	UMTS/HSDPA/HSPA+/DC-HSPA+	3G

800 MHz	LTE (planned)	4G

1,800 MHz	LTE	4G

2,600 MHz	LTE-Advanced	4G

Based on your post, the G906S should work, however, when looking at ebay adverts, they do not mention some frequencies. For example this advert - http://www.ebay.com/itm/Cellphone-K...1383609998?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item27e7425a8e

That advert does not mention the 800MHz for LTE.

Therefore, is there a specific version that you have, that supports all the bands you have mentioned?

Thanks
[Galaxy S 5 General] Lodix:
The OP bands are wrong. Here are the frequencies that this model support:

2G: GSM 900/1800/1900

3G: HSDPA 850/1900/2100

4G: LTE 700/850/1800/2100/2600

So it should work perfectly on your carrier.
[Galaxy S 5 General] pollet82:
Hi, i have the same problem. I buy the sgs5 lte from 28mobile and all ok, i have installed root acces and CWM. The only problem that i have now is taht i can not use the 3g conection.

Some sugestion about thease problem?

The other question is about the CMW option, i dont found the last option

Date / time will be synchronized with the system.Reboot device.

Where is thease option?

Hope that somebady can help me. I live in Ibiza Spain, and the frequencies are all rights
[Galaxy S 5 General] Lodix:
Does your carrier support the 3g bands that I wrote ? Are you connected to LTE ?

If you want to connect to 3g open the dial phone and mark *#0011# then press the korean words that are at the bottom and select the 3g band that your carrier support. If you want to use all the connections select "auto" option at the top.
[Galaxy S 5 General] pollet82:

Hi all,

Can we try and work out why some people are able to update OTA with their sim in and others cannot? I have a G906s and when I update by manually pushing the update button or waiting for an automatic update prompt both tell me that I need to insert an SKT USIM. Does the G906k version not do this ?

Added screenshot to first post.

Got it thru a friend from Korea. Im not sure about 2600 bcuz both my LTE sims are running on 1800 but i guess 2600 should be in list. You can get this phone from Sin Tat Plaza at Hong Kong for about 49xx - 52xx. Mine is shimmery white with rose gold trim. Both Sk and Kt version are same.

Uploaded the unofficial cfroot and link on first post. You will trip your knox for sure using this method and there is no guarantee everything is fine after rooting it. Im not rushing to get rooted and i prefer to "make it ra1n" and retain my knox 0x0 for now.

Wireless charger is working but it will make your back cover bulge and your phone is not sealed against water anymore unless you are using original samsung back cover
