Yes, that update is to what he's referring. It ****ed my phone. It ****ed my wife's GS5 up too. Several months ago, after the update, I started getting popups on my phone. Then my wife's phone got the bad.

I deleted every app, reloaded them and in 24 hours had them again. SO we both went into Verizon and they told us its a security issue with the lollipop update. And that the patch to repair it will not be available until January.

Wife got a new S5 and seems to be okay.

I reset my phone that day. 40 days ago. Dumped everything. Reloaded only the apps I really need. Last week, the shit started again. Pissed me off. I'm going to have to get a new/refurb Note4.

If they have issues like this, I'm just going to go to apple in the future. Too bad, cause I really enjoyed the size and display on this phone.
