[Galaxy Note5 General] jpbl1976:
To add to the OP's tangent on Sammy treating the Note series badly on updates -- I have the SM-910U Note 4 variant and, on launch, all the press was about expecting a Lollipop update by year-end. Heck, there was a SIGN at the Sammy Flagship store that said we could expect Lollipop within 2014.

Well... we didn't get our Lollipop update until midway through 2015. The Note 3 got Lollipop before my variant did. So that's one thing to watch out for.

My mobile phone dealer (calling the bloke my dealer makes it sound like an addiction) just rang me up to offer me the Note5. I can get one tomorrow if I choose to -- I can even trade in my Note 4 for around USD450 and just add the rest (about 300 bucks) for a 64GB Note5. I'm probably not going to do it. It makes no sense given how the landscape's shaping on top of the fact that the hardware isn't necessarily a step up -- how can you lose a removable battery, an SD card slot and an IR blaster and call it an upgrade? More like a 'sidegrade' in the RPG same sense -- down to the fact that the prettier design on the Note5 is like a killer transmog.

Also, root's not happened just yet -- in the past, we had root before general availability but Exynos makes that problematic. I can't live without root because no reliable adblock exists without it and I love testing/playing with different apps and deleting/restoring them through Titanium. Sure, there's adguard but you have to pay for app-level blocking (browsing's the free bit).

Bottom line is: If I want an unrooted device without adblock/adaway, I'm sticking to whatever Apple's offering. I mean, that's what Sammy's done right? Its committed to making the top end of its product offerings Android's version of the iPhone (down to the way the device looks from some angles). At least my iPhone 6 Plus has 128gb of storage.

... and that's the thing: Sammy are just too intent on mimicking Apple in nearly every respect -- even with payments -- and the key to that particular bugaboo is having a secure platform, which is why Sammy is going to do its best to protect Knox henceforth. I get it -- they want to make more money -- Apple's got 20% smartphone market share (roughly) but 80% smartphone profits share. Each and every CEO of the companies that makes these Android handsets would trade his or her soul for those numbers -- even Samsung's. Market share isn't important if you aren't making much money off of it. Look at poor LG. They make less than 2 cents of profit per handset sold (overall -- naturally some SKU's will make more money for them).

In any case, if we're looking at an Android world where rooting and customisation are seen as hurdles to profits, it's going to get ugly. The rooting paradigm may well evolve into the jailbreaking paradigm and updates are going to be slower because there's more validation and testing that will need to happen.

Hey reverse that words saying " *****ing about it here in the thread isn't doing a darn thing towards change" Do you think XDA is a small site or what? Whatever happens here Sammy knows about it. Expecially what has to do their product,they are everywhere. So a statement or a comment here goes a long way.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] RAMChYLD:
Hi all, I'm a noob here, so please forgive me if I posted in the wrong forums.

I just updated my three-month-old 838Pro to Windows Mobile 6 this morning using the official HTC Dopod SEA update image, and was already met with a flurry of problems.

Problem #1: TCPMP can't seem to find the necessary dlls to support Windows Media movies anymore. Any attempt to open them in TCPMP is met with a Audio/video codec not supported by the player error. They open fine in Windows Media Player, however. I was also having problems with the FLV extensions earlier, but the problem has since mysteriously went away after I warm reset it. The codec issue still persists.

Problem #2: The Streaming Player doesn't seem to want to work anymore. I can't tune into my telco's streaming TV channels (which I pay some $1.50 a month for access to). Accessing the stream results in a "Media file type not supported" error. The streaming did work in Windows Media 5.

Problem #3: Installing RealPlayer 1.1 preview totally causes clicking on a RTSP link in Windows Media to do nothing. If I recall I never had this happen to me when I installed RealPlayer 1.1 on Windows Mobile 5 (I tried putting Real on thinking it will fix problem #2. Fat chance). I manage to circumvent the issue by installing the Streaming Player 2.10 cab I managed to dig out of somewhere online (now the theme fits, but still no dice in getting Streaming Video to cooperate).

Apart from that I noticed that the ATI ImageON driver issue with TCPMP has still went on unfixed.

Can anyone recommend me any solutions to the problem? Did something not get installed? Is it safe to roll back to Windows Mobile 5?

Again, I'm sorry if this is not the place to ask for help, but I'm seriously lost.

Thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Scann69:
Well, what i did was just to install CorePlayer which is currently version 1.1.1 build 1600. Basically it plays all the files u need. u can go to www.coreplayer.com to find out more. Hope that helps.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] RAMChYLD:
Well, I just checked - Apparently CorePlayer has the exact same problem with Windows Mobile 6 on the device. Fixed it by googling around and finding this article about shoehorning some WMP9 libraries into the system. RealPlayer has been removed via a hard reset.

However, I failed to flash WM5 back in.

I also tried reflashing the device to see if it's caused by a dud flash - nope.

So, just have to figure out why it's not wanting to connect to the streaming TV channel, keep getting a "File media type not recognized" error. The stream works fine in WM5.

So, any other Malaysians here who's signed up with DiGi Mobile TV and has a Dopod 838Pro flashed with WM6 and experiencing the same thing?

[XDA Assist] Mike B.:
Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.

If you made a backup before flashing the camera mod, you could simply restore from that. If you have no backup, flashing your ROM again should remedy the situation. If you downloaded the mod from here on XDA, look in that forum or thread for possible solutions to your problem, but otherwise try asking in the Samsung Galaxy S5 friendly Q&A forum at http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s5/help where our experts familiar with your device will be best able to guide you.

Should I buy the Samsung wireless charger or the Verizon one?
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] buzzy3970:
Samsung. The fast charging one when it's released of course.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] apurva.giri:
Too bad I got a regular Samsung Wireless Charger free with Edge+ @ BestBuy. Although, the same product is showing for pre-order at their website for some reason. It was released a while back, it should have been the fast charger on pre-order. Anyway, will see once I pick it up on 21st.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] rebecca616:
I know that Qi wireless charger is great.

I will try it ,when my S6 plus is arrival:D:D:D:D

Samsung wireless charger is a good option i think. I am using it and its performing good.:p
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] apurva.giri:
Samsung Fast Wireless Charger would be better. Both are different.:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] Zerid:
I have one of the old chargers too, but it doesn't like the edge plus. It will charge for about 5 to 10 minutes then it will just flash blue. Are you having issues with yours?
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] apurva.giri:
You know what, I picked my phone today along with the old wireless charger and I had just put the phone over the wireless charger like 15 min before. Every 5 min, my Edge+ stops charging and the charger blinks blue. I was about to search on google when I came across your post. No idea whats wrong with it.... Lets see if anybody else is having similar issue.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] Zerid:
I found a post that people are saying it's related to the lock screen, when they enable day dream mode it worked for some people. I tried it the phone stayed on for awhile, when I came back a hour later it was flashing blue again so I'm not to sure what the issue is.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] apurva.giri:
I've reported this to Samsung. I just can't get it to charge wirelessly. I've created a video too for sharing. Here, have a look : https://youtu.be/SfiGk6C3Yso
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] Zerid:

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] apurva.giri:
Goto Samsung Website. Register your Note 5/ Edge+ and raise a service request.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] stillbrad:
Yep I'm having the exact same issue. I got it to charge a whole 20 mins once by trying multiple positions. Now I can't get it to charge more then 5 with it blinking blue again. Sucks.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] jjjohnson82282:
After I couldn't get the Samsung charger to work I bought a stand up charger and has worked perfectly for the last few days!
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] apurva.giri:
Yeah, I can always buy that Samsung Wireless Fast Charger , its just $69 and if you register your new flagship, they are throwing 30% off coupon codes too. However, my point is, if the they have decided to give away these old generation fast chargers, the least it should do is charge. I have tried using a different fast charge adapter and a Nexus 4. Still blinking!

Anyway, I've written back to Samsung about this one, lets hope they get back. If not, I'll have to take it back to BestBuy and pickup another one!
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] Dvanzutphenkann:
Too bad that's 30% off 59.99 or less so the fast charger is 10$ more than that code will allow
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] apurva.giri:
You're right, never saw that piece. Sammy is desperate to sell off its official accessories. S6 Edge accessories were very inferior, so I didn't even look at the Samsung section this time, straight to SpiGen.:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] Hezzennater:
Same issue as you all with the note5. Same Samsung charger that bestbuy gave away.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] rsfinsrq:
Same here. 20 minutes of charging then it quits. I'm going to return it to Best Buy. Maybe they'll give me credit towards a better charger. More likely they'll just exchange it for another.

---------- Post added at 04:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:29 AM ----------

I'm aware of this one. I knew I would be getting the older version of the charger, which really doesn't make much sense since our phone is the first one that supports fast wireless charging and they are giving away the slow one with it. :rolleyes::mad:
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] Hezzennater:
Well, I think that bestbuy is doing the promo not Samsung. So I think it was bestbuy being cheap, and nut wanted to spend the money on the chargers, or working a deal to have the fast chargers in stock early enough to give away
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] apurva.giri:
Its a partnership offer. Samsung is running similar offer in other countries too even with S6 and S6 Edge.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] MoonPie2000:
So what what does this tell me?

Just exchanged my s6e+ phone and charger disc for new ones. The new charging disc still flashes blue after some time of charging the new s6e+. While I was at best buy I tried charging new s6e+ on old demo wireless charger disc and it worked flawlessly. Also one of the Samsung employees charged their s5 flawlessly on wireless charging disc that failed with the new s6e+. One last thing, I charged new s6e+ with cord to 98% charge and then finished charging phone on charging disc that had previously flashed blue and both phone and charging disc LEDs turned green when phone charge reached 100%. So what does this tell me? Samsung messed up on several counts... Common Samsung I want to like ya but you need to get this right and quickly.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] apurva.giri:
From what I can tell, sometimes mine works for 30-40 min and sometimes just 5 minutes. It could be possible that when that guy charged his S5 on your charger, it could be in that 30-40min category (luckily or unluckily). Similarly, it could be when your battery was 98% charged, only 10 min could have charged it to full (my charger works for that long most of the time).. No matter what, there is definitely something wrong with the chargers they provided free. I have called up their voice support and they sent me a UPS return label and told me they would send me the new charger, not sure if they were talking about the fast wireless charger or not. I hope they do... :silly:
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] MoonPie2000:
Charger follow up

Okay I did some more testing and while I still don't consider it acceptable I have found a method that yeilds , so far, a 95% success rate. I actually can't take credit for this as I read the hint in a different post somewhere. It still is way more sensitive to a specific position than I would expect or should have to accept.

1. Place phone on charging disc and allow equal parts of charging disc to remain exposed under left and right sides of phone.

2. Slide phone down charging disc until camera bump touches the charging disc but does not cause phone to loose contact with charging disc.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] Stuart R:
I too have had placement issues with the new Samsung wireless charger. Just got the Spigen charger and it works so much better. Never fails to charge; just drop the phone on and go. It requires a 5v/2a charge adapter (I just used the one that came with the phone or the Samsung wireless charger).
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] apurva.giri:
Thanks guys, I would have tried this but when I called Samsung, they said they will do some analysis once I ship them the product. I think we should let Samsung work on this one. Its simply unacceptable to get a product like this from a brand like Samsung. Also, since they mentioned that they will send me "The" new charger in exchange, I was kinda hoping that they might ship a fast wireless charger. I can't seem to find the product anywhere except Samsung online store where its on pre-order status. Lets see how that goes... :cyclops:

Samsung issue confirmed

I called Samsung last week and opened an incident about the charger. The tech wanted to replace my charger so I explained that I had tried that already and I just wanted to confirm Samsung knew about the problem. He took my concern and we parted ways. Now this week I get a call from Samsung engineering asking me about my experience with the charger. The engineer confirmed that Samsung recognized that there was an issue with some of their wireless chargers and:good: they were investigating a fix. So my loyalty to Samsung remains intact and for good reason. So the good and the bad - Samsung recognizes there is a problem so hopefully we will see some sort of fix - the bad we are stuck with a finicky charger until they fix it. :crying:
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] apurva.giri:
I would suggest sending it back to Samsung. May be they will send back the new Fast Wireless Charger instead, which I'm assuming is thoroughly tested with S6E+ and N5 since those are only two phones that support fast wireless charging. I've also got this cheap CHOETECH wireless charger which works great till now. I'm still hoping for the Samsung one to get replaced ofcourse.

I think its definitely something software related. I turn my phone off at night and never had a problem with the phone off while charging it on the wireless charger. works 100% of the time. While the phone is on its hit or miss.

I'm a bit confused over Samsungs wireless chargers.

I got my black 64GB S6 Edge Plus yesterday and apart of the deal it came with Samsungs 'fast' wireless charger.

It does charge fast but what's confusing me is on the Samsung website they have a new one which isn't released yet?

http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/EP-PN920TWEGUS

Looking at the part numbers, it's different from mine, the one linked above is EP-PN920TWEGUS where as MY charger is EP-PN920BWEGWW which is completely different.

Does anybody know the difference between these? Are Samsung releasing an even faster one?

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] jweather:
Wow, did you try to swap the charger out? I would think if the phone didn't charge on the wireless charger while off, then it maybe a hardware problem with the charger or the phone.

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ Accessories] apurva.giri:
Yes, I got it replaced from BestBuy. The new one is no different. I guess I'm out of luck. And I heard from several people that when they contacted Samsung, Samsung said they are aware of the issue. So, I'm guessing the chargers really have some problem after all. I sent mine to Samsung. Haven't got any mail back yet. Will write them back after a week or because they said they'll take 11 days for the product analysis.
