Anyone have issues with the XDA app after update?

Also new auto brightness is good but still too bright, is there any reason why using screen filter would drain more battery than it saves?

What about greenify aggressive doze feature?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] damage145:
Anyone have issues with text message bubbles randomly changing colors after update?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Strongbowsix:
Battery life for me has been extended. Normal user of phone and 14 hours later and I am still at 33%. Typically I would have been at the 15% mark. Very nice!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] anastatow:
Phone seems great and snappy after the update... battery life has possibly been extended slightly... the fingerprint sensor seems even more responsive (some how); however, has anyone experienced issues with framerates in games? On LP I never noticed even the slightest hiccup/stutter; however, on MM games will sometimes struggle (I say sometimes because often the framerate seems great)... I did a hard reset after the update and still notice the issue in nearly every game I load up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] cell128:
Does anyone use foxfi? Does it work on mm?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] clintonroche:
I use it. It works fine for me. Another user was having issues tho.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] arkard1:
Fingerprint reader snappy, phone seems faster, but it also seems to be draining much faster than before fore updating. I could make it through a day without charging and not It seems I have to plug in about 2x a day to make it through.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] wpoeaaa:
I really want know,have you get it MM6.0 By vzw assitant?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] oksagi:
I've asked the same question.

Because i'm now not with Verizon carrier so i cannot OTA update.

When trying to check update with Verizon Assistant no updates is available.

So trying to find someone that got the update with Assistant
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] monkeyhandler:
On Nexus 6P, I can double tap on a lock screen notification (gmail, calendar, etc) and be taken straight into that app, is this not the case with Note 5's Marshmallow? I only get a "swipe to open" when I tap on a lockscreen notification.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] nimms:
It might take upto 1 week after OTA for that to be released via Verizon assistant.

Even am waiting. Checking smart switch and VZ assistant daily.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] oksagi:
You say this from previous experience?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] spouby:
Oh, thank God! I'm not alone!!

---------- Post added at 12:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:11 AM ----------

Why is there only OTA update??? Why why why? stupid verizon
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] KruseLudsMobile:
Install the Samsung Game Tuner app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] gordec:
Finally wifi calling. Anyone knows what indicates that you are using wifi calling vs using cellular connection?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] nimms:
http://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-80200/

Says so under notes section.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] oksagi:
right

"The most recent software version becomes available on the SUA/SRA tool within a week of a new software update."

Let us know if you get the updated by Assistant :)

Thanks Bro.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Cbass15:
Got my update yesterday. I don't have any problems! I personally think it's faster.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] mademan420:
Supposedly by the icon in the red box but I haven't tested it yet. I'm guessing that it will only use it when there is no cellular service available(or airplane mode).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] taifengdian:
not get update from verizon assistant yet!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Mayze23:
I ended up having to do a factory reset. The theme selector was buggy. It kept stitching different themes together when I would switch. Everything is working fine now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] stm8:
I tested it out last night. That is exactly the icon I saw. Worked just fine for incoming and outgoing calls.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Sideswype:
Got the update yesterday morning. Installed smooth as silk and the only issue was my game apps and office apps from Amazon Appstore crashed with an "internal service failure" error. Logged out and back in to the Amazon Appstore app (which Marshmallow interestingly didn't delete) and now everything runs fine. Marshmallow gave the phone a new feel and everything seems faster and smoother. Wifi calling works well, the flashlight is instant on (no second or two delay like lollipop), and the fingerprint sensor is vastly improved! Too early to be sure about battery life but after 7 hours of me being asleep last night my phone went from 95% to 92%. Nice update!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] gordec:
Thanks. I saw that. Wifi calling is awesome. I pretty much put the Note 5 on airplane mode and just turn on wifi all day at work and at home. All text and phones calls come in normally. Saves so much battery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] mademan420:
You must be using the Verizon messenger app for text/mms?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] edgarzin:
any way to flash via odin?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] cchris81:
I just tried it out, airplane mode with wifi on. I can make and receive calls, send and receive texts, without the phone radio on. I'm using the stock Samsung message app. Cool so now when I'm home I don't need my cell radio on.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] surajpateluk:
Phone In UK - Will It Work?

I have the handset from US in the UK and has been working fine on Vodafone, Will the OTA work on non Verizon sim?

I have been waiting for the update for sometime now.

I have tried to locate a ROM for the device but no joy for SM-N920V model.

Any advice would be appreciated. :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] mademan420:
Very odd... I cant seem to do either when in airplane mode:confused::confused::confused:

UPDATE:

Toggled wifi calling off then back on and rebooted. Works while on airplane mode now:good::D:good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Tygir:
Any ideas why I'm not able to activate the WiFi calling? I have turned the Advanced Calling off and then back on and tried restarted the phone. When I try to turn the WiFi calling on, I get the box saying "This may take a few moments...". Then I get a box that says "Unable to activate WiFi calling at this time. Please try again later." I've been trying since yesterday when I updated to MM. Any help?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] dudewithspots:
I'm hoping you all experienced this too, but I feel like multitasking is way better. What I mean by that is the apps that stay in memory rather than closing. I definitely feel like my phone is holding way more apps at once, rather than reloading them.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] KruseLudsMobile:
What spots?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] mademan420:
Yeah sees alot better... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TI3zAsBtYy0
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] bamabamboogy02:
Call VZW, they might need to reprovision advanced calling on your account.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] fade_:
Any good alternatives to the live weather on the lock screen widget? I miss it!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] gordec:
It's way snappier now compared to before. This probably due to cache clearing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] DaRkL3AD3R:
Wi-Fi calling refuses to work. I have everything setup correctly and even rebooted my phone multiple times. HD calling works over LTE. But if I go into airplane mode, the phone just complains about having no service and needing to switch off airplane mode. What am I doing wrong? I've tried both the 5ghz and 2.4ghz SSIDs on my router, a Cisco e4200. I just don't understand what else could be the problem here. The one big feature of this update I'm excited for and it doesn't even work at all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] pbman1953:
Airplane mode shuts all the connections down. Simply restart Wifi
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] DaRkL3AD3R:
I should have clarified that obviously I am turning Wi-Fi back on when in airplane. The phone completely ignores that I am on WiFi.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] whatnow275:
Anyone able to find the Google settings app after MM update?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] KruseLudsMobile:
I did a search and in a Google forum saw: "With Marshmallow the Goggle Settings app was removed, Google settings merged into regular android settings"...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] mademan420:
Had the same problem you are having. This worked for me:good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] DaRkL3AD3R:
Sadly that didn't fix it for me. I've done lots of reboots, toggling the setting on and off, etc. Nothing fixes it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] bamabamboogy02:
Try this, goto applications,

Wifi calling

Permissions

Enable phone slider.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] DaRkL3AD3R:
Unfortunately it was already enabled, but thanks for the suggestion.

I am really baffled right now. Everything is on and enabled. But yet when I go to make a phone call, it's like Wifi calling just isn't a part of my phone. Is it possible that I have a different model that just doesn't support it?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] bamabamboogy02:
What happens when you try to call while wifi is active and airplane mode on?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] DaRkL3AD3R:
This is what I get.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] bamabamboogy02:
That odd. Seems like more of a phone issue than an external issue. Log into your Verizon Account, remove HD Voice feature, process the removal of feature. Reboot phone after transaction completes. Make a call or two to either voicemail or a 1800 number, VZW Customer care is 1800-922-0204. Wait about 5 minutes. Then re-enable the HD Voice Feature, and from your phone and see if that works.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] DaRkL3AD3R:
No dice. Still staring at a warning to turn off Airplane mode. I am getting frustrated with it. And when I google for help on this subject, I feel there is no one out there who had this same issue. It's not looking good.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] bamabamboogy02:
I understand the frustration, sorry about that man. I am out of ideas. Last thing would be a hard reset. I jad to jard reset mine due to stiching of different themes from the one selected. And then it started rebooting when I would hit apply on a theme. Hope you get this resolved man.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] DaRkL3AD3R:
Thanks for trying either way.

I already did a factory reset. It accomplished nothing besides delete everything on my internal storage. I had no idea it wipes the emulated SDcard as well. Fun lesson to learn.

I will ask this though, before you and I give up finally. What revision is your phone? I have two Note 5s and neither of them can do WiFi calling at all (despite the setting being on). Both are Hardware version: N920V.04. Perhaps there's some discrepancy here.

For what it's worth, when I activate Advanced Calling on my Note 5s, it says "Advanced Calling 1.0". WiFi calling wasn't enabled until version 2.0 with the S6 and S6 Edge. What does it say when you activate Advanced Calling? Is it 2.0 on the phone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] bigfdaddy2:
Be nice if I got the dang update ...won't give me update via Ota or via verizon update software .... wish their was Odin files floating around for it ...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Ryano89:
Getting this anytime I try to buy an app. Anyone got any ideas?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] bamabamboogy02:
Same hardware version. N920V.04. My status for activating is greyed out. Let me remove the feature and re-enable it, I'll let you know.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] bamabamboogy02:
I deleted the feature then added it back from the phone. Make sure the feature "HD voice" is active on your account. Its still "advanced calling 1.0". When i tried initially wifi calling didn't work, didn't see "HD voice" on my account. Added the feature, even though it said it failed to add the feature, and that I should call into customer service, I logged out of my account, and back in, and the feature was already added on, and i could wifi call again.

Also, have you disabled anything on your device that would prevent this from working? Like using" package disabler pro" or anything?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] DaRkL3AD3R:
Thanks for digging in and check this stuff out.

No I haven't disabled anything. I had literally every app enabled and updated, and it still wouldn't work. I also made sure to add HD calling both through the phone and manually on the website. It shows as being active on both my phones, and still nothing.

I'm genuinely at a loss here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] bamabamboogy02:
I would call VZW, and have them look in to this. Has to be something on their end.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] taifengdian:
did't recieve update on vzw assistant yet, any got it ? I'm not using verizon sim card ,so I can't OTA my phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] bigfdaddy2:
same here ugh ....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Daciple:
Update looks and runs like a beast. Like the battery Doze feature in marshmallow, battery life increasing great.

If using package disabler, found good to Uninstall app which will restore factory apps and then do install.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] tw1n5nak35:
Just finished updating, so far so good. I haven't really played a lot with the new features cause I'm work. But what I've seen in the thread from other users, things are looking good. It's crazy to see, that Verizon was the first to get marshmallow :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] Ryano89:
What do you mean?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] DaRkL3AD3R:
Guess what buddy. Went to my family's house, totally different model and brand router and service provider. Wifi calling works without fault on their setup. Something is clearly wrong with my router configuration, and I have no idea where to start with that especially considering I just performed a factory reset on it a couple months ago.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] whatnow275:
So OEM unlock is available in developer options...does that mean anything for us??
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] bamabamboogy02:
Gladit activated for you man. Try disabling ipv6 on your router. So it activated at their house, is it still functioning when you came back to your home? (If you are back already). I have ipv6 disabled for vpn access for work. What kind of router do you have?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] ars0n:
what kind of router setup do you have? model? type wifi do you have enabled? g/n/ac?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] DaRkL3AD3R:
I'm not back home yet, but I'm 99% certain I did infact disable IPv6 on my router after resetting to default a couple months ago. Although I could be mistaken.

I know now that Wi-Fi calling activated just fine and has been functional from the phone side all this time, it's been my router at my house that's been at fault all along. This confirms it here at my family's house using their router and service provider for WiFi. The question is what is blocking it from working back home.

I did some googling and a lot of comments on routers blocking WiFi calling has to do with IPSec VPN blocking. I recently set up a PPTP VPN from home and got it all working by disabling the router's built in VPN tunneling options and manually port forwarding. If I enable the VPN tunnels, the ports are sealed shut and no traffic flows through. There are individual tunnel options for various VPN protocols, so I'll try leaving PPTP alone and enable IPSec when I get back home. Hopefully this is the magic bullet that does it. If it is, I am gonna be kinda happy and kinda pissed, to think something so abstract as VPN tunneling was the problem all along. I never would relate VPNs with WiFi calling and really aside from a few various forum discussions over the years, there is no hint of it being related whatsoever from official sources. Frustrating.

I will be home in a little while and I'll give it a try. When I do I will be sure to report back on my findings.

I forgot to mention this in my previous post.

Router:

Cisco e4200 v1 with firmware version 1.06 (latest.)

Neither 2.4Ghz (B/G/N) or 5Ghz(N) works at home.

Here at my family's house with a Netgear router, both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz work in all 802.11 modes. It's clearly my router at home, and I think I figured it out but will have to go home and check to be sure.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] bamabamboogy02:
Yeah, I would never have thought that to be the case. Looking forward to your outcome.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] DaRkL3AD3R:
Back home and bad news. IPv6 was disabled like I remembered, and enabling the VPN tunnels for all protocols did absolutely nothing. Knowing now that it's a problem with my home router/internet provider is killing me. I've even gone and disabled the firewall on the router, rebooted it, nothing is getting WiFi calling working on this Cisco router.

I have Verizon FiOS if it means anything. I'm at a loss here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] bamabamboogy02:
Wow, man. I don't know. I use a 2 year old Net gear Router using time warner cable. I'll browse around the Internet looking for something to help you Wi-Fi call from home.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] DaRkL3AD3R:
You won't find anything, for whatever odd reason "wifi calling router not working" is the most vague thing on the internet, and the results are almost nonexistent at best.

However, I have some fantastic news. I am now able to WiFi call at home! What did it? I'm fairly certain it was indeed the IPSEC VPN Passthrough enabling that did it. For whatever odd reason, it took awhile for it to finally start functioning as it should. I was just browsing google looking and looking for anything, and randomly decided to try another WiFi call in desperation (I was borderline going crazy, see?) As soon as I heard that call dialed tone, I nearly flipped out of my desk chair. I checked the notification bar in disbelief as it was indeed on Airplane mode and WiFi only. And boom, there was the icon in the top left corner indicating I was making a WiFi call.

Needless to say, I am freaking stoked to finally have this working as it should be.

Important lessons for future Googlers with similar problems. Let me just put a bunch of keywords for Google to detect and create hits for anyone looking to solve this:

Verizon, Wifi Wi-Fi, wireless, calling, router, not, working.

The solution is this: make sure IPSEC VPN Passthrough is enabled in your router, and give it some time if it doesn't work immediately. It will pick up eventually.

Glad that's over with.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] bamabamboogy02:
I'm glad it worked out man.

Any news about update without OTA?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] spouby:
It's been 12 days. Still no update through software? Damn verizon!!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] trbarrett24:
I wish Verizon would issue the update via the assistant software already or anything but OTA
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] HypostaticOnion:
No. Didn't do anything before either. Problem is with the Knox software, where it'll basically brick your device on startup if it trips Knox due to root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] ratman6161:
Are you sure about that? I have not attempted this on my Note 5, but I previously had a Galaxy Tab S 8.4 that I rooted. It did trip Knox but it did not "brick the device".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5] HypostaticOnion:
I'm sure on the note 5. Look at the root warning thread. “In most of the U.S. devices, if you root the device the device won’t even boot up; if it’s AT&T or Verizon,”
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] hvmdrvm:
Is there any easy guide that'll help me flash this phone to metro pcs? I've been looking around all over the Internet but everything seems too complicated. Granted, I'm very new to this world of flashing. But is there any easy or not so complicated way of doing this? That won't brick my phone but will include mms? Any help will do.

Hey guys does anyone know if and when we get the latest Version of android?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] alanplum:
Hey Guys,

I posted this in the Kaiser thread. It works brilliantly on my Ameo too.

Here's the first post from:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=332324

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I’ve found a mint piece of software that no Kaiser owner should be without.

It comes with a trial period and u should check it out.

I was looking for some software that would help secure my phone and came across this. http://www.wimp-software.co.uk)

It’s supposedly designed to help you find your phone (yeh right, I aint gonna lose my £500 phone) but me and my mate have had a **** load of fun with it.

It’s pretty cool.

If you read the instructions, you can basically text the phone, but the other person doesn’t get the text message. The software grabs this coded text message and sends you back the gps position of the phone. It also gives you a link to google maps which is great if you’ve got Opera installed on your phone. (Don’t try PIE, it doesn’t work)

I gotta say, I’ve seen a lot of cool software around, but this one is SO cool. I only wish my girlfriend had a Kaiser. I could have so much fun with this.

The only thing I would add to the software though, is to know I was being WIMPED. Maybe a little SMS noise, or the icon changed or something, but I do suppose that it was written for phone theft. I haven’t tried it yet, but it also claims that if you change the SIM card in the phone it’ll SMS you with the number of the new SIM card.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] irus:
this is a great find. thanks
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] eaglesteve:
Yes, this is a fantastic idea. However, the implication on our privacy is something to think about very seriously. Yes, it does protect our phone from theft and lost.

Can it be uninstalled or removed by a hard reset.?
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] alanplum:
Yes, it can be uninstalled, and yes it will be removed by a hard reset.

HOWEVER, pop it into your External Rom and the above two things become insignificant.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] eaglesteve:
That's very true.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Midget_1990:
or cook it into a rom, doesnt help if they re-flash though...
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] sergiopi:
Mobile Justice

http://sourceforge.net/projects/mjustice

Does the same, is freeware, works without problems on My athena WITHOUT bottom bar at 128 DPI (WINP shows no ICON)

The easiest way could be to cook it into a ROM and put the config file into an unlocked EXTERNAL ROM.

This is needed because a config file is requested, so, even if you cook mobile justice into the rom, you can't cook the config file (it needs your password, your SIM number and your phone number to report at..)

Then you can config your phone and even in case of an hard reset, without the thieft knowledge of the SW, it will restart and it reads the config file into the external ROM :)
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] eaglesteve:
We would have to assume that 99.9% of the guy having our phones does not know anything about flashing. This is a reasonable assumption I think.

Having even 80% chances of getting back a lost phone is already not bad.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] wgary:
Agree with this. Even having the config file on the MicroDrive might work, if this could be built into the ROM to look there by default. Don't know if that's possible. Yes, you could erase the Microdrive but this would take more research than the usual thief might be willing to make...

WIMP says it will send a Google Maps link, will Mobile Justice do that? Seems like MJ is actually more configurable.
