Samsung Galaxy Note5: Note 5 AUX malfunction?

Thu, 06 Jul 2017 19:28:12 -0700

Note 5 music player works perfectly, but when connected with AUX cable (to speakers, in the car, everywhere), after a song or two the music fades out and it refuses to play with AUX cable, while it plays on its own and on earphones. Different AUX cables have been applied and different music apps have been tested, but same thing. This is so annoying and frustrating. Any solutions?

Samsung Galaxy Note5: Stuck on Samsung Logo sometimes

Sat, 28 Jan 2017 02:59:52 -0700

Any ideas on how to fix this? I think 800 megabytes of free space in internal storage is enough.

It seems like nobody actually knows why this happens other than a list of assumptions:

- Not enough ram memory (from internal storage somehow like swapping virtual memory pagefile)

- Home launcher causing the issue

- Weather widget causing the issue

I'll try the free up space method and see how it goes.

Samsung Galaxy Note5: SM-P9208 Note5 LCD Screen Replacement

Fri, 29 Jan 2016 15:47:34 -0700

I broke my Dual SIM Note5 that I ordered from eBay all the way from Taiwan (SM-P9208) and a cellular repair shop told me that he didn'the have this model's LCD screen and that the other Note5 models LCD screens that he have won't work with mine.

Is that true or should I just tell him to install one of his the other models of Note5 LCD screens into mine on my responsibility which might cause me to lose $200 with no results?

Thanks.

Samsung Galaxy Note5: Why does my phone vibrate when it turns on after it was off?

Thu, 14 May 2020 11:32:15 -0700

So after I restart my phone, it vibrates when turns on, or when I turn it off (completely) and then on .

I don't know why it happens but I can give you more details if you ask me to.

It might be because of a specific application and because no one asked that so it might be because of oculus vr.

Why is it a problem?

Well after it happens my phone becomes slow for a short amount of time and then coming back to normal.

Please help!

Samsung Galaxy Note5: Why Is the New Back Glass not Flush with the Mid-Frame and Flash?

Tue, 07 May 2024 19:34:11 -0700

Hello,

I have finished replacing the back glass on my Samsung Galaxy Note 5. I noticed that the back glass is not sitting flush with the mid-frame and the heart rate sensor/flash even after pressing on the back glass focusing on these areas for over a minute.

Are there any solutions to solve these gaps?

Thanks.

Thu, 13 Aug 2020 20:12:52 -0700

Hi I just dropped my phone face down onto the floor, there isn’t anything on the floor. My screen doesn’t have any cracks or whatever. ITheres a blue LED light that just stays there and doesn’t blink. The phone feels hot though it was untouched for an hour. The screen just all of a sudden goes black. Is it possible to fix and I really love this phone and I want to continue using it?

Samsung Galaxy Note5: Why my phone randomly shot offs after battery replacement bought here?

Sat, 20 Jul 2019 10:23:03 -0700

I recently changed my tmobile Note 5’s battery with the kit I bought from ifixit. I calibrated the battery after I install it or atleast I tried. I used the phone for couple of days and thought it was fine but later my phone started to shut off randomly and mostly below 50% battery. So, I guessed I didn’t calibrate the phone correctly and try to calibrate again (drain below %10 and full charge).

Long story short, nothing works still random shut offs. At this point I am wondering if the battery I got is compatible with my Note 5 (T-Mobile N920T)
