hi there,

anyone experiencing bad background noises, when using S5neo on good hifi or car hifi system?

when i stop playback or close a player (tried different ones) it takes some seconds until the noise goes away, starting playback - i get background noises like wavy sounds ... its about as loud as on an old tape (without dolby)

greetings hf

s5 Neo microphone problem when plugged in via mini jack

hi All

I just got a new S5 neo and like it so far...BUT...I have been having one mysterious issue. When I plug my phone into the car stereo (mobile's mini jack to stereo's mini aux jack) and call someone, I am able to hear them through the stereo but they are not able to hear me speaking into the mobile's microphone. It seems as though the Neo's microphone is getting muted/blocked when it is plugged in. With my previous Samsung Galaxy S4 mini, i made calls like this all the time and they worked just fine. Otherwise, when i am not in the car, the mic works just fine when I call someone or when I use a headset/microphone plugged into the mini jack.

Does anyone have tips about this?

thanks so much,

Adam

If samsung wants to tho but when we will get it... we should have it but nope ....
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Questions & Answers] silcay:
Yes... sell the phone...

This feature (among others) works on every phone I had, but not on S5 Neo. For some reason mic is muffled when connected that way. The workaround is to click "Speaker" while in call to switch to external speaker and then click again to get back to car stereo. At least that works for me. Or it doesn't... after that the mic is so sensitive it picks up EVERYTHING inside the vehicle so ppl talking with me are begging me to pick up the phone and continue talking normally. Another thing that would solve this problem is function called "Noise suppression" or cancellation. A function that S5 Neo is also lacking (among others)...

found Mic issue fix

Thanks so much for replying to my message. I am reading so many bad reviews of the Neo but besides my mic issue, I have been liking the phone so far - but I might be a sort of basic user! I DID find a solution last night to my Mic problem on another forum...here was the fix that allowed the Neo mic to work while plugged into the car stereo:

The solution was to install the application: SoundAbout.

In the APP go to "Connectable Devices" > "Wired Headset Settings" , and there uncheck the box that says "Wired Headset microphone". After that go to the main menu of the App then toggle the SoundAbout Service (change it from ON to OFF, and from OFF to ON to force the detection).

hope that helps anyone planning on keeping their Neo!

[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Questions & Answers] silcay:
:) Great to hear you found another solution. Will try that... maybe..

And again... we have to use 3rd party apps for normal functioning.

At the moment I'm using app called Tasker with AutoInput plugin for normal talking. It simulates touches on screen. Why you ask? Well, S5 Neo has apparent problems with mic, and most of the time, ppl on the other side can't hear me. Then I would do the thing I already told you or just pressed "Extra volume" that is enabled in phone talk without speakers connected. Now, that would happen almost ALWAYS and became frustrating. Hence, I started using Tasker that would automatically do the trick when I answer the phone.

Interesting, that problem would ONLY occur on 2G network, not 3G or 4G. Luckily, Neo is my company phone and my job usually takes place in basements and communication rooms with little to no cell signal let alone 3G or 4G...

Good luck with this half product... if that... :good:

Why are so many negative thoughts about the S5 Neo?

I bought it about 5 Months ago and I'm satisfied with it, it does what it should do.

It's rooted, V4A is running fine, Xposed is working, apps and games running smooth.

It's around 22000 RUB in Russia which is 295 EUR/335 USD, that's a good price for a hardware device that last a few years..

As I understand, there wont be Custom ROMS that easy because of the Samsung CPU. Right? Phones with Qualcom CPUs are easier to customize, or am I wrong? So the correct way to go would be purchasing a standart S5.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Questions & Answers] :
Yeah it's a dead project :)

If whenever marshmallow comes make sure to install good lock it'll fix systemui to partial aosp. Color will be pink though

And gives some fun to play with recent ui. Still young project but good to see a software alternative which is 3rd party that'll make some drastic changes to the ui.

I have a lollipop version which is "not installing" but it's bumped down to sdk 22.

[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Questions & Answers] pxp3:
To me it's a downgrade. It's losing 5 hours battery, removable battery and radio.

You gain power for multitasking and heavy use, which I don't need so far as my Neo still flies as fast as the S7. And a bit better camera.

For this you pay 300 or 400€ more. To me it's an awful idea, but everyone makes different use.

[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Questions & Answers] APKCCCP:
Also didn't know that, thanks!

Totally decided to give a **** about the S7. :D
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Questions & Answers] pxp3:
I get 10 solid hours of screen on battery with the Neo. Plus 10h more in my back pack with the spare battery that I got in Amazon for just 6€. I have 20h battery always with me. What other phones have this? None. The S7 gets 4-5 hours, like the OnePlus and all of those.

I go to run and gym with the radio/music and route tracker on and come back home two hours later with 90%. Only for this and for the radio I wouldn't change the phone. Plus the beautiful screen, good camera, microSD, make it the most complete for my needs.

It's always difficult to decide because you win and lose features. If the S7 had radio and much longer battery life I might think it because it's always a temptation to have the last and fastest one. The other brands so far I don't like any. The Samsung S series is what I like, the SuperAmoled is too beautiful, the sound on earphones is the best, the buttons and earphones jack are in the right place, left, right, up and down, etc. I tried many phones and I only like the Samsung S. Every other brand has a lot of annoying things.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Questions & Answers] APKCCCP:
I know what you mean, I stay with Samsung since years, and the SIII Neo did a great job years ago, but the S5 Neo is very limited when it comes to custom roms etc.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Questions & Answers] pxp3:
I never used ROMs, not even with the S3.

It's always a matter of personal preferences, certainly. In the beginning I wasn't happy with the Neo because the sound max volume was lower than the S3. But I found a decent fix with Stellio. And the camera could be better. It takes time until you forget the cons and accept it fully.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Questions & Answers] APKCCCP:
What am I doing is rooting and delete all system apps I don't need, since I don't like trash or ad apps.

I want the smallest possible ROM with the best interface, so I do it myself.

It was even possible to create own ROMS for the S3 Neo, but the S5 Neo has changed in a bad way, when it comes to advanced customization.
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Questions & Answers] Fantasmorto:
I discovered that yesterday and it was a surprise, in the wrong way.

For the moment the S5 Neo satisfies my needs almost completely :) Only waiting for a way to root and TWRP without tripping Knox

I upgraded from a S4+ to S5 Neo just a week ago. Can't shake the feeling that everything is a bit more laggy. I've disabled as much pre-installed bloatware as possible, disabled most background stuff such as Play updates, but the phone still feels less smooth than the S4+ but hey maybe it's psychological, going from one CPU make to another?

For everyone cuz of the touchwiz the touchwiz launcher is laggy cuz of the clock icon the clock icon will be refreshed everytime u switch to the page of it cuz the pointer will be pointed to the time which it is right now than if u use a theme the icon will be non animated ... this is it xD didn't bring anything wanted to tell it cuz maybe ppl could think it's the phone but nope ...:D have a good day
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Questions & Answers] pxp3:
My Neo is getting slow and very laggy in the last two days and the updates are disabled. It's failing in many ways. Just like my Samsung Tab... What's wrong with these devices? Faulty RAM? I don't play games, can it be clogged by using Instagram and have too many photos in the memory? I have uninstalled it and cleaned and still slow.

Both were super fast and one day they get slow even without any update. I dBm uninstalling apps and cleaning caché. If it doesn't get better I'll have to reset to factory default...which is a total pain.

Apart from this I asked a youtuber whose videos get always frozen and he said they are 1080 and 60fps. Could this be the reason? Still, it seems to only happen to me.

The Tab 3 I took it to repair and they only updated Android the buggers, so it's still slow. It was very fast, wonderful, and one day... slow and dead. It was only 19 months old still under warranty. I bet Samsung does it on purpose to make them slow. For instance, when a new iPhone comes out, there are lots of searches in Google with the words "my iPhone got slow". They probably do it on purpose...

Any ideas about this?

which ROM
[Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Questions & Answers] davbra98:
The kernel wasn't made for direct root, so it didn't change anything to your system.

But after flashing Chimera only wants to unroot. That's the problem.

I've flashed the kernel 2 times with odin 3.10.7. After rebooting I got security messages in Notification bar. So I flashed the old boot.img back and the security notifications disappeared.

But the sad fact is no root :(
