[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowFlare:
Possibly your device need a Factory Reset, sounds like it's behaving unusually, because tap and hold an icon intuitively should allow you to move the icons around that page or to the other pages. You said you have researched throughout the forums (and that I haven't seen anyone else with this issue), it may be it's an isolated issue on your tab.

Although, long hold on home screen also does not give me that option on this Tab S and I think on the Tab PRO as well. Same thing when I press and hold the left capacitive button (the task manager button), all I got are Wallpaper, Widgets, and "Remove" trash can.

My suggestion is still Factory Reset before you return the device, unless you still prefer in doing so.

---------- Post added at 04:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:15 PM ----------

Oh wow, didn't know about that. So silly that Apple.

Anyway, the Task Manager button (left capacitive button, left side of the fingerprint scanner / Home button), which where the usual Menu button used to be, if you tap and hold it, it will behave like a Menu button. See if it's working or whether Australia's firmware is forced to remove that as well, lol.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Freakstyler:
I believe 3 changes exist on Australian firmware, you cannot edit or change the dock icons, the Samsung Gallery Autorotate doesn't work (the grey rotate icon is greyed out), and It's often been said that camera shutter sounds cannot be disabled, although that may be a global thing.

It was recently mentioned that an update to the Samsung Galaxy S5, had recently again enabled the dock icons to be edited, but I haven't seen any other devices mentioned with a similar update.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dawkinsmj:
So no mention of the Edit menu being taken away from the Home Screen then, or not being able to move icons on the Home Screen.

I have tried doing a factory reset and still have the same issue, is there nobody else in Auz who has seen this issue?

If I long press on the left button next Home all I get is Wallpapers and Widgets at the bottom, no menu to creature a folder etc.

I don't mind using a launcher but I am sure I should be able to move icons and create folders on the Home Screen with the Samsung setup on the Tab S.

Should I be take it back for a replacement?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowFlare:
Alright, I have tapped and hold on a icon on Home Screen, the page shrinks a bit, you can move the icon around, AND you get the 3 option on the top, Create New Folder, App Info, and Remove.

When you do this, you don't get these options?
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dawkinsmj:
When I tap and hold an icon on the Home Screen the page shrinks a bit and I get App Info in top left and Remove top right, and on the screen under the icon I am holding I get this message 'Tape Edit to resize widgets, and reposition widgets, shortcuts, and folders'.

It seems to be expecting you to access the Menu option to select Edit, but I just cannot find the Menu anywhere. :(

If I long press on the soft button to the left of the Home button it goes to the home screen add or remove screen, and I get Wallapaers and Widgets at the bottom and Remove at the top.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShadowFlare:
Wow that's a bummer :(

Well, I also get the Wallpaper and Widgets at the bottom and Remove on the top when I long press the left soft button.

Another thing I would suggest is visiting a store that has tab on display that you can play around with, testing the missing "Create Folder" selection when long pressing the Home Screen.

If they behave the same, then TW is broken for Australia ROM :eek:

Not much can be suggested other than what's already been suggested... flashing other stock ROM from different region... or wait till Samsung workaround that ban... which could be never. Sorry, Man.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elmo1955:
I have the same issue. Unable to create folders on home screen. When I press and hold any icon on home screen no option to create folder appears. I can create folders in the apps folder but that's of no help on homesceeen
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] killall:
I'm in the UK and had the same issue. I bought my tab from a retailer on ebay. I checked my firmware and it was for Hong Kong. So I downloaded Uk firmware from sammobile, flashed with odin and bingo! TW working with all options avaiable.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elmo1955:
I get same msg. Can move icons but no menu option to create folder only remove
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Shvester:
figured it out!

I had the same problem but have figured it out. If you go into your apps screen there's a list of options on the top right represented by 3 verticle dots. Click on the dots and one option is to create a folder. The folder will open in the apps section but you can then drag it to your home screen and use as normal. If you delete the folder from your apps page it will still stay on your home screen. Good luck!

My kid got some Ice cream in my devices ear hole on top of the phone and now I can barely hear callers talk.I wiped in off.can anyone recommend anything that I can do to get my in comming sound back for I can hear it like I should.I can hardly hear a callers voice this sucks.any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] xda23:
Is there a speaker volume that would help me out? Thanks!!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] aooga:
lol ice cream. I wouldn't know how to get ice cream out of there. Since this a water resistant phone, you could just wash that part of it in pure water and theoretically the ice cream would come out and the phone wouldn't be harmed. Usual disclaimer..don't blame me..blah blah. Don't put it under a tap, just in a bucket or something. Or compressed air if you just want to blow the ice cream away from the earpiece. Both are probably equally stupid ideas, but hey at least it's something :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] jjlean:
Beware if your charger port cover is loose or damaged. If not and it seals properly that should be fine to pit water on it.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] fffft:
Go to Radio shack, an electronics supply vendor or online and get a can of contact cleaner. Or alternately flux remover or even CCl4, if anyone still sells that.

A distant second would be wetting a tiny bottle brush with 99% rubbing alcohol and carefully /gently cleaning the jack.

.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] xda23:
If I use a blue tooth headset I can hear the caller perfectly and they can hear me perfectly without using a blue tooth headset.Im trying to clean it with rubbing alcohol right now and if that dont work Im going to try compressed air in a can. Thanks for all your guys help.I really do appreciate it. Take care!!! :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] fffft:
Be careful with that. Compressed air could dislodge or damage the water resistant seal.

.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] xda23:
O.k. Im going to try rubbing alcohol first.I will post my results latter wish me luck. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] xda23:
Should I put my device in rice to help remove some moisture? Thanks :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] fffft:
Rice has some drawbacks.

But first, we need more information. If you are using contact cleaner, it isn't necessary at all. Even several passes with 99% alcohol would assure that no moisture remains. But if you're taking ill advised shortcuts e.g. using 70% or 50% alcohol.. then silica gel packets in a sealed jar, plastic bag, et cetera would be far superior to rice.

.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] xda23:
I cleaned it with 100% rubbing alcohol.hey is it hard and expensive to replace the speaker? Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] fffft:
Pure alcohol is quite hygroscopic, so there won't be any moisture remaining in your phone that would call for rice.

Is the speaker easy to replace? That's subjective. I think so, but most people wouldn't attempt it. You can't gain access to it with a screwdriver like you could on the S3 /S4.

You need to remove the glued in place display assembly with a heatgun to get at the speaker. Once you've separated the screen from the rest of the S5 that way, then the speaker is easy to replace. And inexpensive if you buy the part online.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] xda23:
Thanks bud for all your help and information I greatly appreciate it. ?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] xda23:
Tmobile should fix it for free under my manufacturers warranty shouldn't they? Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] aooga:
Not sure about that really. They advertise it as a water resistant phone, not ice cream resistant. Did the alcohol not work? I don't know if they replace it for water damage even though they say it's water resistant. Someone else will have to chime in here.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] fffft:
No way that a warranty would normally cover ice cream induced damage. Nor water damage either.

As much as you'd like these things to be covered, I haven't seen Samsung promise to fix any defect from any cause or misadventure.

Kids break things. One of the myriad joys of being a parent.

.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] xda23:
I'm not a parent I got it fixed. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] fffft:
Not sure if you meant the phone or other equipment of yours. But great if the alcohol worked.

Presumably the kid belongs to friends of yours then. They should be the ones paying for any ice cream repairs.

.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] xda23:
No the alcohol didn't work I had the ear piece replaced so I'm good to go.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5] aooga:
Do they really not cover water damage even when it's advertised as a water resistant phone? That's pretty dumb if you ask me. Especially with phones like the Xperia Z1s which is actually waterPROOF.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moisesdrp:
Necesito ayuda con respecto a este móvil, pues paso lo siguiente. resulta que le extrajeron la memoria SD sin expulsarla de forma segura del dispositivo y así mismo le sacaron la batería sin apagarlo, Después de encenderlo se habían borrado las apps de google maps y la galería. Puedo vivir con eso, pero lo que no comprendo es el hecho de que algo parece ir mal con los gráficos en los juegos falta definición y en momentos, se ven lentos. Quisiera que alguien me confirme si esto pueda deberse a lo que ocurrió y que puedo hacer para solucionarlo. Sin necesidad de flashearlo ya que no quisiera perder la información y las apps instaladas (Gastaría mucho tiempo en volver a instalar todo).

Mod Edit: Translation provided by Google Translate:

I need help regarding this phone, as the following passage. is extracted to the SD memory without safely eject the device and likewise took out the battery without turning it off, then turning it on had deleted the apps from google maps and gallery. I can live with that, but what I do not understand is the fact that something seems to go wrong with the graphics in games and at times lack definition, they are slow. I wish someone confirm me if this may be due to what happened and what can I do to fix it. No need to flash it as it would not lose data and installed apps (would spend much time in reinstalling everything).

[T-Mobile LG G3] retrofred:
I have had the phone for less a week and I have had to pull the battery twice cause the screen became unresponsive to touch. Was wondering if any one else has had this issue. Very frustrating.
[T-Mobile LG G3] wideasleep1:
Once today after I woke the screen while shopping, it just froze. Again a few days back when I think I was editing text in an online form. I wonder if the keyboard is playing a role...

If it the lg key board then I would agree. No issues once I went to google or swift key boards
[T-Mobile LG G3] Skizzy034:
Happened on the G3 that I exchanged last week. Woke it from deep sleep and unlocked the lock screen but after that it was semi frozen. I could turn the screen off and on with the power button but that was it. Had to do a battery pull.
[T-Mobile LG G3] F4M0U569:
does it still happen? mine randomly freezes on lockscreen. I will have to wait a minute or so and then it comes back to life
[T-Mobile LG G3] squasha:
I am experiencing this problem as well. It didn't start happening until I turned off the Knock On feature.

I have to battery pull my phone about twice a day.

I don't want to turn Knock On back on because it is a battery drain and it incredibly sensitive.

Does anyone know a solution?
[T-Mobile LG G3] wideasleep1:
Just had it again in line at Costco...annoying. After a pull I've downloaded No Lock and activated it...this is the second time in two days it has frozen transitioning from wake to unlock screen. I'll report back in a few days if this was a fix.

[T-Mobile LG G3] hello00:
it is happening to me as well..i like to keep my phone locked with a pin password and sometimes it freezes out of nowhere..now disabling the lockscreen seems to work but thats not how it should be
[T-Mobile LG G3] Dxtra:
Maybe you guys did something or and app is incompatible
[T-Mobile LG G3] bradoggk:
Mine is doing the same thing and tends to do it at least every other day. Mine hard locks to the point of requiring a battery pull. From what I've found:

1. It happens on ART more than Dalvik. I left it on Dalvik for 4 days and it didn't happen once.

2. Mine tends to lock up most frequently when I pull the notification shade down while on the lock screen, probably accounting for 75% of the locks.

Is this consistent with anyone else's experience?
[T-Mobile LG G3] retrofred:
Mine will do every two to three days or so, but I stopped using the LG keyboard and am using the Google keyboard and seems to have helped. Also it gives me a warning before it goes dead to touch in that it shudders a bit.
[T-Mobile LG G3] squasha:
It started after I turned off the Knock On off. Which I did thru the secret menu. I literally have to bang on screen to make it wake up.

Are you using stock launcher? Did you disable animations?

---------- Post added at 09:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:22 PM ----------

Come to think of it, notification shade may play a role...are you using stock launcher and do you have animations off? TIA!
[T-Mobile LG G3] hello00:
no..im using nova and the animations are set to .5x..urs doesnt randomly freeze at all?
[T-Mobile LG G3] wideasleep1:
Mine freezes every other day, and sometimes twice in the same day. Running stock launcher, all animations off, and ART. All freezes seem to be after double-tap wake, and then either a notification swipe or page scroll..still looking for patterns.
[T-Mobile LG G3] hello00:
i disabled the knock on so that cant be the cause of the freezing..it gotta be something else..at first i thought mine was defected because i didnt see anybody with this problem
[T-Mobile LG G3] wideasleep1:
I'll just add that last night I added 'No Lock' app and enabled it, so now only a wake to get to desktop, and no freeze since, but it's only been a day, too early to tell.
[T-Mobile LG G3] hello00:
yeah thats the only workaround unfortunately but i like to have my phone locked
[T-Mobile LG G3] MyanRagahis:
Mine froze twice yesterday for the first time, and three times today. I was on ART at the time. I would wake the phone and I could get to the homescreen, but then that was it. Home button was highlighted and the rest of the nav bar icons were grayed out. Power button wouldn't even wake it after the screen went to sleep. Had to do battery pulls.

For me, there was no certain way of reproducing it I think. It was just random. Froze twice while opening the camera. The other times, maybe playing Clash of Clans or about to read a text message. Or simply unlocking it.

The first week on Dalvik, no freezing or any issue. A day after switching to ART, that's when all the issue started. Maybe it's an app I have that's not playing well with ART, who knows.

Wanted to try ART because I heard good things about it. Probably a placebo for me (I noticed no difference after switching back to dalvik).

Switched back to Dalvik today and all is fine so far again.
[T-Mobile LG G3] bradoggk:
I'm using the stock launcher and have all animations on .5x - same settings as when I was on Dalvik. Seems like this may be an ART incompatibility...
[T-Mobile LG G3] Skizzy034:
Happened to me today using ART =/. I tried to close Spotify with the X in the notification shade from the lock screen. The power button wouldn't turn the screen off even. It just completely froze. The home button was highlighted and the others were greyed out.
[T-Mobile LG G3] wideasleep1:
3 days now with No Lock running and no freezes. In my case I believe the LG lockscreen is the culprit. I dont believe it closes gracefully running ART and speculate it is animation related.

Sent from my amazing LGG3!
[T-Mobile LG G3] hello00:
its been a week and also no lockups or freezes. i had to hard reset and currently using the stock launcher..i was using nova but i doubt that was causing the problem..

Well I've gone back the lock screen and the knock on. The first time around I had terrible battery life, now my battery life is amazing. I should mention that I don't use ART
[T-Mobile LG G3] murse:
I've had my G3 for about a week, and have also had this problem. For me it started after I switched to ART while using a Knock On Code. Using the regular Knock On feature hasn't been a problem.

Hi guys, I have red a lot about this issue but I'm still confused with my LG G3 855.

[General Questions and Answers] amshook:
A friend of mine had a Galaxy S3 Amber with a broken (and blank) screen and wanted her data from it's internal memory that is locked and not in debugged mode. I did a lot of research and found the best, most efficient way was to do a motherboard swap with another gs3. I had a Galaxy S3 Blue. I watched a couple of videos and it seemed rather easy. I gathered the proper tools and was EXTREMELY careful not to break or rip anything (and to my knowledge i did not). When i put her motherboard from the amber one into the blue one and the screen would not come on. My first thoughts were it must be her motherboard that went bad. Well when i went to put my blue gs3 back together (again being very careful this entire time) I'm now having the same issue as she was. Black screen, no back light. The bottom lights DO come on and i feel it vibrate when i get a message. There was also no power on chime...

I know its hard to tell with out looking but any ideas on what could be wrong or what i might have screwed up? i checked all the connections and everything looks perfect. Nothing is bent or connected wrong and I didn't force or break anything.

update: so i found that the touch part of it still works fine. i can hear the ripple unlock as well as all the other sounds and such when i touch around and i can here it opening apps. the only issue lies in the screen itself being blank with no back light what so ever,
[General Questions and Answers] TechMinerUK:
First of all remove the battery and attempt to power on, then leave without battery for 1 min, I know this sounds silly but it worked on an old iPhone 3G so anythings worth a shot.

If that doesn't work go back into the S3 and make sure all the data clips are firmly in place and locked down but not twisted in anyway. Also make sure their is no moisture or dust on the ribbons. You may not realise it but even the smallest imperfection with this can cause massive issues down the line.

If all else fails her phone may have broke your screen, I don't know how but it is a possibility

Hope I could help and good luck
[General Questions and Answers] amshook:
so i took it apart again today to double check and clean everything and under inspection i noticed a teeny tiny slit on the edge of the lower, bigger ribbon. i know the smallest bit could be horrid. Any fix and would that cause just the screen to not show? i don't know if that is the led connection but i think it may be.
[General Questions and Answers] TechMinerUK:
If theirs a slit I'm affraid that could be it for the screen, like I said even the smallest imperfection can cause massive issues. The slit is probably in the one of the data sections of the ribbon cable which is why data for the screen isn't being carried.

For the fix I don't think their is one unless you can fit a new ribbon on to yout S3's screen

Sorry about the screen:(
