Has anyone have problems with note 5 after installing applications?
Only installed facebook and updated the mandatory apps, but upon entering facebook,screen blacks out and freezes. did a soft reset and the phone will be stuck at the loading screen.

another situation was at the phone's settings, unable to enter bluetooth settings, wifi settings etc, kept showing a blank page with weird characters and bouncing back to the setting's main page.

You might have a corrupted firmware... try using kies to restore firmware..

Can happen i guess. I installed Windows before, after installing got problem lol i also thinking how is it possible something can go wrong right out of installation when nothing went wrong during it.

Is this mainly on Wifi or you standby in 3G all the time? Looks pretty normal to me. If you use it and you feel the battery dun drain 2-3% in 1 min then i think it's normal and pretty ok.

Where do you stay..?

I can have a mix of wifi and 4G and still get 5.5 to 5.75hrs of screen on time..
