Re: issue with new Samsung Galaxy S5

I recenty upgrade from an IPhone to the Samsung Galaxy S5 and while it has worked great so far, today, while removing the protective case I purchased, the little robot guy came on the screen, the screen then went blank, some power save mode or what not came up and now the red Verizon screen is stuck on my phone and I cannot use it.  I have tried removing the battery, as the phone gets too hot with the battery in, removing the Sim card etc to no avail....short from taking the phone to a store when I have time, any suggestions?  I cannot press any buttons or get out of the screen except by turning the phone off by taking the battery out....very frustrated!!

Try holding the power and volume down buttons simultaneously for 15-30 seconds and see if that reboots the phone.

  • Upgraded to  new samsung galaxy s4 from a I phone 4 and I can't receive text messages from anyone with an I phone.

    I upgraded to a new Samsung Galaxy S 4 from an IPhone 4 and I can't get text messages from anyone who has an IPhone.

    Speak with an AppleCare advisor either over the phone or by chat.
    They will remove your phone number from the iMessage system. That's it! Otherwise after 45 days your phone nymber will automatically be removed from the system. Now or later, it's your choice.

  • New Samsung Galaxy S5 won't download MMS messages

    Hi,  I just bought a Samsung Galaxy S5 and it wont download the MMS messages.  I've looked everywhere for answers but can only seem to find info on previous iphone users switching to the Galaxy.  This is quite aggravating and would appreciate any advice. 

    I am going through the same thing.  I have read the info here and it has been pretty useless.  I am coming from an old-style Casio Brigade.  I would receive a picture message, click on it, and it would open.  With my new Samsung Galaxy S5, this doesn't happen.  There are several messages sitting there, all with a download tab -click it and nothing happens.  I am connected to wifi, and my phone is receiving text messages, so why no photo messages?  Of course, if I turn on "mobile data" and choose to be charged an outrageous amount for data, then everything works as advertised.  It SHOULD be able to receive this like any other text message, as it did on my old phone.  If it needs the internet (and I don't understand why it would), it IS connected via wifi in my home.  How do you or I fix this so that I don't have to use my mobile data each time I receive a group or photo message?

  • G62-234DX replaced hard drive with new Samsung 250 GB. Same size as installed.

    G62-234DX  Hard drive dead.  I replaced hard drive with new Samsung 250 GB. SATA II hard drive and used the recovery Windows 7 Home edition DVD.  Error message appeared after windows loads files and starts windows from the recovery DVD.  An error dialog box opens after completing and indicates, This computer is not supported by the recovery discs.  You will not be able to continue to recover this system with these discs.  error: 0100-1425 -3627-3628-3623-3624.   Hit OK and system powers down. 

    Hi:
    If you purchased the recovery disks from HP, please see if making and running this first helps.

  • Can't Receive Calls On New Samsung Galaxy S4?

    I'm unable to receive calls on my brand new Samsung Galaxy S4. I only activated the phone two days ago. When I call my number, it goes directly to voicemail.
    Everything else works fine - I can make calls, send and receive text messages, synchronize my e-mail, etc. It's only impossible to receive calls on the phone. I've tried calling both from a cell phone and a landline. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks Ashley,
    I contacted a Verizon sales rep in Bethesda on Friday and he informed me that the problem is due to my telephone number not being ported correctly (I transferred my old number from my previous carrier). I have since resubmitted my porting request, so this should be resolved soon. Would you be able to give me an estimated time to completion of my request?
    Another issue came up more recently - I am not receiving text messages from certain numbers only. Do you have any idea why this would be the case?
    Thanks!

  • How to get a replacement AC charger & cable for a new Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini

    I've had my new Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini for a few days.  Last night I plugged in the phone's wall charger and cable to charge.  The following message appeared on the screen: To charge faster use the charger and cable provided with this phone.  I did use the charger and cable that was shipped with the phone.  Then the charging indicator under the Settings menu changed from charging to not charging several times.  I noticed that the plug into the phone was a little loose. 
    There is a little black tag on the cable with the following:  For warranty replacement of your phone call 1-866-406-5154
    I called the number to see about getting a new cable and wall charger.  I was offered a free medical alert necklace if I was older than 50, and then I was told that I had won a free cruise and was asked about personal info such as social #.  I never did get to speak to anyone about the problems I am having with my charger. 
    So, I'm hoping I get two things resolved with this post.
    I need a new cable and wall adapter to charge my new phone.
    I would like someone to know that the cable that came with my new phone has a black tag on it with a phone number.  And when called, they ask for personal information in exchange for a free cruise on a ship.
    Thanks!
    Liz

    Visit a corporate store with your phone and charger.

  • I cannot add Adobe DRM settings on my new Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 Nook. It doesn't recognize my Adobe ID/password combination.

    I cannot add Adobe DRM settings on my new Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 Nook because it doesn't recognize the ID/password combination that works on the Adobe website. Please let me know if I am in the wrong community.

    Having the same issue, called B&N, have spent many hours and still no resolution.  As a work-around, I downloaded bluefire reader on my nook.  Then I used dropbox to take the book that I borrowed from the library and open in bluefire reader on my nook and that worked (still cannot see it in my nook library, but at least I can read the book).

  • What can I use my Droid Charge for, after I upgrade to the new Samsung Galaxy S2 for VZW on Sept 8?

    what can I use my Droid Charge for, after I upgrade to the new Samsung Galaxy S2 for Verizon on September 8?
    I guess it can run fine on Wi-Fi and become a media player.... or is there a market for 1-month-old Droid Charge phones?
    How much trade-in value can I get from VZW or BestBuy or Amazon?
    Thanks!

    Is the MacBook Pro compatible with a Samsung Galaxy Note? If so, how do I transfer pictures from my mobile device to my Mac?

    10.7's phone support may be different from 10.6.  Are you running 10.6 or 10.7?  You posted to the 10.6 forum, yet your signature says you have 10.7.2.     Plus you quoted the 10.6 article.

  • How do I set my iphone to tether with my samsung galaxy note 10.1

    How di I set my iphone 4si to tether with my samsung galaxy note 10.1

    Not sure if this can be done or not but try the following process,
    On your iphone
    Settings > Personal Hotspot > On  (and take note of the password or set one up).
    On your Samsung Tablet, set up a WiFi connection and try to connect to the hotspot generated by your iPhone.
    It would be good to know if this works, good luck.

    can you connect a macbook pro with a samsung galaxy note via blue tooth
    it seems that they will pair but as soon as the mac has connected it automatically dissconnects
    i was informed in the apple store before i bought it that it would be ok
    any thoughts

    The USB port on the Time Capsule is used only to connect a hard drive.
    Connect your Mac using an Ethernet cable to one of the LAN <-> ports on the Time Capsule if you do not want to use wireless.
