Galaxy S4 Active????

I want one!  Would hate to switch to Att but this phone is the perfect solution for me.  C'mon Verizon, we need this phone.  Anyone else agree?

We are eligible for an upgrade on our Casio Commando, which is a bit of a man joke, but none the less very durable.  And never a phone has lasted this long, so Kudos Casio!  But it's just too small for big fingers, as texting frustrates him.
Now, I love my S3 sooo much, yeah, so much that he's jealous, sooo he needs his own version... He wants the Galaxy S4 "Active" too!!!  For all those peps working hard out in the field, they need the durability!  Please hurry up, I don't want to have to change carriers either.

  • Help getting my Unlocked Galaxy s5 Active onto Verizon Straight Talk!

    I have a unlocked Galaxy S5 Active SM-G870A from AT&T. When I compared it to a regular Galaxy S5 they both have the frequencies needed for both GSM & CDMA. Also looking in the phones settings it can be set to CDMA/LTE and more. (A unlocked Galaxy S5 is supposed to work on any network)  But Straight Talk would not let me activate it with the Verizon CDMA SIM in my kit. I contacted Samsung and the conversation is as followed.. 
    Please wait for a Samsung Agent to respond.
    You are now chatting with 'Aiden'. There will be a brief survey at the end of our chat to share feedback on my performance today.
    Your Issue ID for this chat is ****
    Aiden: Hi, thank you for contacting Samsung Technical Support. How may I help you today?
    Wes: I have a unlocked Galaxy S5 Active SM-G870A from AT&T. When I compared it to a regular Galaxy S5 they both have the frequencies needed for both GSM & CDMA. Also looking in the phones settings it can be set to CDMA/LTE and more. (A unlocked Galaxy S5 is supposed to work on any network) But Straight Talk would not let me activate it with the Verizon CDMA SIM in my kit.
    Aiden: Hello, Wes.
    Aiden: I am sorry to know that the Verizon SIM is not working on your AT&T unlocked S5 active. I will check for the available options on our end with this issue.
    Aiden: Thank you for the model number.
    Aiden: Before we go ahead troubleshooting the issue, I have a few questions to help me understand the issue better. Shall I go ahead?
    Wes: Yes
    Aiden: Thank you.
    Aiden: Is the device unlocked officially from AT&T?
    Wes: Yes I had it unlocked from AT&T. Straight Talk made me put it on AT&T
    Aiden: Are you getting any error message when you insert Verizon SIM card in your phone?
    Wes: Straight talk would not activate it as a CDMA. It is working on at&t but at&t isn"t as good as Verizon where I live.
    Aiden: Please contact your carrier so that they will check the carrier profile settings on their end and assist you further with it. 
    Wes: They (straight talk) told me it was first active on at&t so they can't activate it for CDMA 
    Aiden: Unfortunately, we don't have an option to activate carrier on your phone from our end.
    Wes: Should the phone work with Verizon?
    Aiden: Yes, you are correct.
    Wes: I was wondering if the "A" at the end of the model # is showing the phone to be at&t only phone.
    Aiden: SM-G870A is AT&T specified device and when unlocked from AT&T, you should be able to use it with Verizon.
    Wes: Ok thank you I will contact at&t and ask them for more info on it.
    Aiden: Sure, you can do that.
    Aiden: You can get back to us with the same Chat session if the issue persists, so that the chat history will be saved in our records and you need not explain the issue from the beginning and our agents will pick up where we left off.
    Aiden: This chat session will be saved in our records for future reference and the ticket number for this chat session is: ****. Please save this chat ID.
    Aiden: We are available 24 hrs, 7 days a week.
    Aiden: I am positive that the issue will be fixed when you reach the carrier support.
    Wes: Thank you
    Aiden: You're welcome. Is there anything else I can assist you with?
    Wes: No
    Aiden: Thank you for your business with Samsung.

    On this link comparing the s5 & s5 active if you scroll down the page a little to where it shows the phones "TECHNOLOGY" they are almost identical. On the phone if I enter *#*#4636#*#* it gives me the option to switch it to just about any frequency there is. LTE/GSM, LTE/CDMA, GSM/CDMA,CDMA only, GSM only, WCDMA, EvDO, LTE only, and a few others. And after Samsung looking the phone up and telling me as long as it is unlocked it will work on a CDMA network is hard to dismiss. ithttp://www.phonearena.com/phones/compare/Samsung-Galaxy-S5,Samsung-Galaxy-S5-Active/phones/8202,8665

  • Galaxy s6 active

    Quisiera adquirir el galaxy s6 active , pero he sabido que ea exclusivo de at&t , se puede comprar el celular liberado? (para cualquier compañia telefonica ? , en mi caso mi compañia es uisacell)

    Hola @torvic
    Es cierto que el Galaxy S6 Active es exclusivo a AT&T; pero por el momento no se puede comprar ya desbloqueado.
    Solamente el fabricante (Samsung) puede vender teléfonos ya liberados.
    Lo puedes comprar al precio completo y luego llenar una Solicitud de desbloqueo.
    Otra cosa de tomar en cuenta es que no enviamos paquetes internacionales, así que el teléfono solo puede ser comprado aquí en EEUU.
    Gracias,
    Charise

  • My husband has a Samsung Galaxy S4 Active and can't receive my text from iPhone 5

    Why can't my husband and daughter who are both using Samsung Galaxy S3 and S4 Active not able to receive text from my iPhone 5 and my daughter's iPhone 4S?

    I have a simple solution.
    The person who has the iPhone sending you the text messages your are not getting, has to press and hold the blue message box until the menu pops up and one option is to "Send as Text Message" tap that - have them send another new message to you, if it is blue, not green, repeat. I beleieve if you do that twice, the iPone will always send you a text message, not an iMessage.

  • Is there any way to disable the firefox search option when you long press the home button on Samsung Galaxy S5 Active?

    I have an S5 Active and sometimes the home button sticks and registers as a long press which brings up Firefox search instead of going to the home screen. Is there any way to disable Firefox Search so that this doesn't happen. I Love the Firefox browser but if this keeps happening I will have to uninstall it.

    hello djpianalto, you could clear the default settings for firefox on android within the system settings (like described in this [http://www.howtogeek.com/195885/how-to-set-and-clear-a-default-app-on-an-android-device/ external article]).
    or try an app like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=hk.sld.SwipeLaunchDisabler

  • Galaxy s6 Active for ANR line

    I was wondering if the s6 active would be available for the ANR concession/employee line soon? I really want the phone and I've never been on AT&T and was hoping to get the line started ASAP so I could try the service. 

    Hi there! @TheGopax thanks for posting your question. While we won’t have any information on ANR phones. I would recommend you contact your ANR representative.
    Thanks!

  • Samsung Galaxy s5 active

    NEW ISSUE:
    I can receive TEXT messages, but I CANNOT SEND TEXT messages. Everytime --and no matter whom I'm trying to text, the text box goes gray, and I get a FAILED TO SEND notice in the ! box.
    This just started today; I've never had any issues before. I would really appreciate help resolving this problem.

    It may be a bad SIM card. You can get a free replacement at an ATT corporate store.

  • Can't find hardware icons on android samsung galaxy s4?? Firefox OS 31.0 SGH-I537

    Read all the topics and there is no icon for hardware on samsung galaxy s4 active phone. There was an icon in April 2014. After April update, numerous factory resets in August/flashed and other updates I can't find the hardware icon. I signed up to be a volunteer and I received a message to activate and introduce myself which I did. I have received no reply from any mentor from Mozilla support group.

    Did you flash Firefox OS to your phone?
    Or are you using Firefox for Android?

  • Brand new S6 Active won't update

    I just got a new Galaxy S6 Active and am stuck on the AOE9 build.  I have tried for two days to update to the new version OF3 that came out however it says that the device is up to date everytime.

    Patience is a virtue...it prompted for an update today!

  • S6 active outside US?

    Hello, im going to use galaxy s6 active outside US, but can't get through the web-site is there any chance to buy smartphone through the internet, without any plan or something like that. Just full price phone, unlock it and send to Russia via postal service with a support of a friend?

    
    the s6 active is ATT only at this point and time.....
    My suggestion to the op is dont do it as your hotspot and other features wont work since those are locked to ATT even after the device is sim unlocked.  The other thing to remember is you will never get updates since the phone is not being used on the ATT network.

  • How do I stop Firefox from playing video after I navigate from the page or leave Firefox?

    Simple and annoying. . Extremely frustrating issue with Firefox for Android. ..
    I watch a YouTube video or any flash video. . And after I hit play, the ONLY way to stop it is to hit pause or let it play to the end or close the tab. .
    It will NOT automatically stop if I open another tab. or if I navigate from Firefox. .
    I feel this is a very basic feature. Did I set something up that was wrong?
    Can I ask two questions?
    I have another extremely annoying and frustrating problem with Firefox for Android.
    The "top" (if you pull down the tabs) search bar DOES NOT allow my stock Samsung keyboard to auto space. . Thus instead of typing
    "How do I stop Firefox from playing video after I navigate from the page or leave Firefox?"
    I'll type in
    "HowdoIstopFirefoxfromplayingvideoafterInavigatefromthepageorleaveFirefox?"
    Unless I manually got the space bar.
    Using a recently factory data reset Samsung Galaxy s4 active.. android 4.2.2 and stock Samsung keyboard ... Firefox 34.0.1
    Thanks in advanced.
    Ps
    I was a hardcore xscope user for years and just recently gave in to Firefox when i lost all my bookmarks due to a forced factory data reset. .

    I'm using a different keyboard which works fine in the most top search bar...
    I cannot believe that it's not a feature.
    What if I was watching a video and wanted to shut it off quickly? I'll have to hit back? Wait for the previous screen to load then hit the power button?
    Please tell me that feature ids soon to come
