When can we expect the OTA update to Marshmallow (Android 6.0) on our Samsung Galaxy S5 phones?

Only the Samsung team working on the update has any idea of when they might be finished and they along with every other Samsung employee are not talking. Verizon Wireless reps won't know any sooner then us customers.

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

The phone is junk. I have been countless hours on the phone. Factory data

reset does not fix it. It's still junk in safe mode. They send another one

it is still junk.

Hi Lankylegs,


We want your phone to be problem free at all times. Lets get the device fixed. Does the device lockup while in particular applications? What exactly is not working with the camera? Has there been any liquid or physical damage to the device?


Thanks,

No liquid or physical damage. I locks up on any app especially on any Web

browser. Had to Uninstall Facebook and Twitter. Phone won't run them at

all. It will crash and change my wallpaper. No I am not using live

wallpaper. The camera does not focus properly. Pictures no matter what

lighting are terrible. The studio app does no work says unfortunately

studio has stopped working. The phone is always slow. So tried safemode,

cleared cache,factory data reset, new SD card. Still junk.

Lankylegs,


Oh wow! We certainly appreciate all that you have done to get this working. If a hard reset did not resolve the issues it may be best to have it replaced within warranty. Our technicians can help replace within warranty by giving them a call at 800-922-0204.

That's what I am saying this is the 3rd phone. Replacing does not help.

I have had 2 screens burn out. Now it's something else. These phones are

junk. I want the top of the line phone I am paying for.

Lankylegs,


Our phones have become our reliable sidekicks and your device should be the lease of your concerns.  Have there been any recent changes to your phone, besides the software update?

Mine has never been reliable. Worst experience I have ever had with a device. The salesman at the Verizon store really talked it up. I bought it and have hated it since the first update. This is the 3rd one.

Another week goes by - no Marshmallow

Before we know it, Android N will be out and our S5's will become obsolete
