I recently got my 64gb Note 5 at roughly $1000 from Whymobile. Used qoo10 to buy. so use coupons etc to reduce it from1020+ to 1000

I think sleeping beauty is quite common with Samsung phone, i've owned 3 so far since S1, all have this issue but not enough to piss me off into complaining to them. However, both my S1 and S2 i went to their service center before cos 1st one mobo died, 2nd one suddenly cannot read my SIM, next day wake up my phone like hot coffee then found out SIM missing hahaha.

So far Note 3 is the only one no major issue. But my S2 which is still around, never have problem since, just that the AMOLED has turned yellowish.

hi,

just a straw poll here.. how many of u are using the stock launcher ? or others ?

trying out Nova Prime, faster than stock.. seems to add overhead to it. considering to go back.

keith

apex on my current note 3, maybe using it for my soon-to-be-mine note 5

used go launcher previously until they started putting in ads
if marshmallow touchwiz is nice then i may revert back to stock...

The very thought of getting Marshmallow is turning me on big time man. The potential battery saving and ram management. I realize with Samsung's firmware, no amount of RAM is gonna solve the lag issue, it just makes it better only.

By the way, anyone using tempered glass here for their Note 5? If so, will it make it hard to scan your finger?

It doesn't cover the home button

Where u got it from ah? I watch in youtube the Note 5 screen is curved down so this SP does not go all the way right.

The tampered glass does not cover the entire screen and when you apply it there will be areas around the phone not covered
If it covers then there will be bubbles/air gaps around the screen

Qoo10 got a lot, search for "tempered glass"

They just compensate for the curve by making the sides of the screen protector thicker so when it's placed, the screen is now totally flat throughout
