You know, when the Romania version of the manual will be available?
Simon says
Galaxy Note 5 has not been released in your Romania. So I don’t think there is a Romanian version of Galaxy note 5 user guide.

euan says
The screen turns on when the phone rings,but if i tap òr swipe the accept button nothing happens. I should be able to either accept or reject the call. Still,i can answer using the home button.
Simon says
Not sure. You should touch and hold then swipe (drag) the button, not tap.

Euanb says
Hi, maybe a silly question, but when my Galaxy note 5 is asleep i cant answer incoming calls? Am i missing a simple solution?
Simon says
When the phone rings, the screen will be on and you can answer the call. This is the basic function of the smartphones. What problem did you get?
Our Facebook page || Galaxy S9 Guides || Galaxy S8 Guides || Galaxy S6 Guides || Galaxy S7 Guides || Android Guides || Chromecast Guides || Gaalxy S20 Guides.
euan says
I agree,that is what should happen. I see both the answer and hang up buttons but they dont function if i get a call when the phone is asleep.
Simon says
Do you mean when the screen is locked ? What happens if you drag the button to the direction indicated? Please note, it’s not to tap the button. You need drag the button.
Our Facebook page || Galaxy S9 Guides || Galaxy S8 Guides || Galaxy S6 Guides || Galaxy S7 Guides || Android Guides || Chromecast Guides || Gaalxy S20 Guides.
euan says
I mean when the screen is asleep,i dont have it locked i simply flick the screen to the right to use it. But, if the phone rings i can neither do anything with the 2 buttons, or use the phone. I did notice if i press the home button first, that allows me to answer the call. Is that normal?
Simon says
If the screen is turned off, it should be turned on when it rings. It is not unnecessary to do anything else, just drag the accept or reject button as indicated. Did you tap the button or drag (swipe) the button?
By default, home button is to accept the call. So you don’t need drag the button.
But again, I suspect you just tap the button not drag it.
