    Post Some apps not working over Wi-Fi

    Post Some apps not working over Wi-Fi

    Tried all but none of them worked except the last one. Only switching to another router solves the problem. In my case, the router that conflicts with the phone is the ASUS DSL 17U.

    Post I need my phone to stay awake AND locked!

    No help from XDA but at least I was able to find a workaround so I leave it here I have found two apps called Stay Alive! and Touch Lock that suit exactly what I need. It is possible to download them at Play Store. One is responsible for preventing the phone goes dark and the other one is...

    the Galaxy S5 is a decent smartphone when it works properly so please take my advice and perform a firmware update to the latest ASAP after you buy it and see if anything wrong. I haven't updated my S5 after purchased and used about six months until needed to perform a firmware update (for...

    Hey Droidriven. I am trying to brick my S5 via flashing the S4 rom. I tried maybe ten times but I am still able to flash the S5 rom via Odin and get back my phone running again.

    Sadly it reports 0x1 due to rooting. Couldn't be able to return it back to 0. Samsung did implement something so that the user won't default it. I remember I did manage doing it for the S4 but it can't be done for the S5 (and the newer Samsung smartphones I think). Isn't there even a slightest...
