I really love my s5, currently running lineageos 18.1 full root so it is still useable, however the battery life isnt much so i cannot daily drive it.
Which phone would you recommend for me?
I want a small form factor, good battery life, 3.5mm and a micro sd slot. Thats basically all I care about :)

    Chicago Bulls, 13 Nov 2020Hi Guys. When I turn on My galaxy S5,,, it shut down sudden... moreBecause you overused the phone and the battery could not handle the heat and got eliminated so yes i would suggest you call Samsung customer service and see how they could help you out

          best samsung phone ever, it had a remote control app where you can turn off any tv you like. I used to turn off tvs at sports bars with the app where people watch matches, it was hilarious

              still on kitkat guys (cyanogenmod11) ... great performance/hifi audio and zero heat

              the device is smooth af

              i never update it to lollipop or higher ... i know there is now lineageos 18.1 and 19.1 ... but it will never give you the smoothness of kitkat !!!

                    I still use a Galaxy S5 and have since it was released - I have unlimited data, VoLTE, and use it as a mobile hotspot while away from home to stream movies and game online on my laptop. The S5 is a very capable device.

                      UltraHD, 30 Oct 2022You bought a 8 year old device and wonder why it doesn'... morethe 9 years old iphone 6/6plus are capable of everything basic you would like from a phone

                        Anonymous, 31 Dec 2022Via the calling codes. It may not be really related.Ok, I got it.
                        There are some Android/phone related codes which appear automatically, like *#06# which should show you IMEI IDs of the phone's 2 SIM slots.
                        But, the network operator codes need to be dialed (you enter the code and press the connect call button)

                        And they've both been working ok in my older Nokia phones, 8 year old Android based Redmi 2 Prime and my recent LG phone. So, it doesn't seem to be phone's issue.
                        So, try confirming this with your network operator's retail outlet, maybe the codes have changed.

                              But why should a phone show you subscribed package options?
                              Isn't this something you discuss directly with the telecom service provider?
