    but sometimes checking power cord switch to know weather its on/off makes more sense than calling a service center and tell them that my computer is not working.

      My note 5 sm 9208 vietnam made dual sim 32gb has following problems
      (1)sim 2 is not detected and the device force me to restart
      (2)battery life is not as review.it is almost the same as iph 6 battery life and drain more than htc 816 and xiaomi redmi note
      (3)camera is not as good as s6 and s6 edge.but that's just my thought.
      (4) keyboard pop up and disappear is lagging

        AnonD-22824, 30 Oct 2015He does not need to get what he already has its very clear ... moreHe said, "Need to turn on mobile data or wifi to backup my work files while screen is not working ... How can i do that ?"

        "I need my S note files & unfortunately i didnt synchronize it."

        What's not so clear with that sentence at the end? Not comprehensible for you?

        Assuming if he has activated the fingerprint scanner to unlock the Note.5, he could use Kies all his files to sysnc. And the link I provided is the app you can use to read S Note files.

        Even more, he can connect the Note.5 to his PC and use SideSync to mirror the Note.5 UI on the PC's screen, use the mouse and keyboard to navigate and control to turn on his data. He can also connect to a Bluetooth mouse while on SideSync, and then connect via HDMI connector to a smart tv with that BT mouse to control the interface for the meantime.

        His correspondence sounds urgent, not to have to first wait DAYS for his screen to be replaced. Before that, he can get his files quickly through wired, or with his request - to turn on his data service to sync his files.

        And what's your advice? - go to service center, and mention to us about your 1 year insurance for replacement. And still not has a chance to sync or gotten his files.

          If u ask me its sud have been built like this from Note1.

              16 and 32gb internal mem even with expandable storage is not so great as u do not get complete access to use the sd card .means u cannot install apps on it plus no app data can be moved directly to external sd card without root.

              So this expandable storage is most of the times good only for people who are FAT and wants to watch's lots of downloaded movies and tv series on there smartphones and keep the same files even after watching it. And for people who do not know how to use the attached hardisk on there wifi router .
              I can easily get upto 1tb storage on my hardisk attached to my wifi router but even in that i do not keep lots of movies or tv series i normaly backup my videos and pics taken from my smartphone.

                  The Note 5 is a mokery. I had all Galaxy Notes, but this is a realy fealure. The Note 5 has not a lot of features of Note 3 and Note 4. Has not IR, no CD card too, imbuilt to small battery. The Note 5 is a nice gadget made only to fool the people and get profit. Unfortunatly the Samsung decreased even the sampling time at shameful level of 5 Hz, even the Samsung Galsy S has better 4 times better sampling times. The camera is only 16 Mpixels, until a lot of gadgets have more than 20 Mpixels. Also have no watter and dust protection. A lot of glas but if someone wants to keep it safe must put it in somekind of protective case. It is a hypocrisy thinking, nice but unsutable and too expensive.
                  I will keep my old Note 4, and the Note 5 will sent away. I am very disapointed!!!

                              I'm still not happy with the fact that I have sound turned all the way up and I do hear my messages and don't hear them. I missed 3 texts and one call today with the sound unchanged because it didn't ring.

                              This is with the phone by me. Some don't register.

                              Rotating the phone while multitasking is still hot or miss as sometimes my phone gets stuck in a horizontal or vertical and I have to clear cache and close out all programs to start over. Very annoying.

Any sort of storage devices or accessories should be regarded as temporary all the time. I found Samsung micro SD cards to be long lasting than other brands. I don't mind having to pay for 128/258GB of internal space if Samsung offered those straight up - not just the common 32GB or the RARE 64GB version... but then I remember it only has a sealed battery.

                                        But, regardless; if you have SD Cards you still need to backup your phones. Because accidents happen with drops or SD Cards going bad, like I've dealt with.
