  1. Cached information im sure can add up with pictures and videos, do you have messenger installed? I checked mine was 300mb on total where yours says 151.

    No messenger installed currently. Just shouldn't be this bloated as just an app. I would understand if it was included as part of the data or the cache, something you can clear. This is ridiculous. Download is only 30+ how the hell does it balloon to 150 without even opening the app.
  2. I'm seeing the same thing.

     

     

    Another problem I'm having is with the fingerprint scanner. Sometimes when I wake the screen up and try to unlock it, the fingerprint sensor is unresponsive. I can swipe as many times as I can but it doesn't tell me to swipe straight, incorrect fingerprint, or that finger is wet; it just doesn't do anything. (Just in case someone is wondering, I turned off locking when pressing the "Power Button" and have a lock delay of 10 minutes in the settings)

     

    When this happens, there's 2 immediate solutions; 1. Enter the password manually or 2. Press the power button to turn the screen off and back on again. That usually gets the scanner working again.

     

    Anyone else see this?

    This happens to me all the time. It's like. I'm not even swiping. I thought it was an app I have that displays notifications on the lockscreen. I usually just turn the screen on and off real quick. Usually works.
  3. Also, would like to add, hangouts dialer is GREAT, especially if you have full integration, you can make and receive calls from your Sprint number, basically VoLTE, handy when you need data and voice at the same time.

     

    Since last update this feature works really well, even if your phone dropped to 1x for the CDMA call, you can cancel the CDMA call and the Hangouts call can take over, pretty slick!

    It does a seamless handoff? That is pretty slick.
  4. With as much as I am on the phone I am surprised i dont have the same issue. I do keep my screen dim and timeout to 30 sec

    My timeout is a minute and my screen can't afford to be too bright. My habits haven't changed at all. That's why we think it stayed awake throughout the night, probably a couple of nights inadvertently. In fact with translucent status bars in lollipop more prevalent, burn in should happen even less so.

  5. You really should get after Sprint and Samsung over this on social media. Send a message to Marcelo. The sleep issues on the S5 are going to only lead to more unhappy customers and broke devices.

     

    sent from an underwater dust storm from my Sprint S5

    I've noticed some people are having some success with this. I don't use Twitter too much or at all lol. Does sprint care have a special twitter handle?
  6. Going to thebplay store like in your picture, i can see a slight but in. But its only recognizable if at an extreme angle.

    It's also pretty noticeable in the camera and other full screen apps. It'll just get worse unfortunately.
  7. Yes Hangouts does do transcribing and im not entirely sure what you mean by cloud, but the hangouts app once fully integrated does support receiving and sending messages from the browser or desktop app, and also backs up all text on hangouts.

    Can you retrieve all your old messages on hangouts? Like from 3 years ago? From old handset? That's what I meant by cloud. And see missed calls and sent and received calls? The Orig integration scared me off with all the complaints. Maybe I should give it a go again.
  8. Oh, I'm pretty sure they are done with GV app, since they are doing full GV to Hangouts.

    I'm not so sure about that. between voicemail transcription {does hangouts do this?} and cloud services. I can see them having something up their sleeve and just waiting til mvno is released to to update the app. Getting rid of voice means the voice website would be deprecated. And that's not happening. Hangouts can handle the front end. But who knows.
