POLL: Problems after Lollipop update? SHAME SHAME

First of all, I LOVE my Galaxy S5! But................

 

After this lovely Lollipop update that was supposed to be super delicious, my phone started heating up even when I wasn't using it, it got super hot while charging and taking 4 1/2 hours to charge up 5%.

I am a little electronicly savvy, so I did the usual troubleshooting.  Bought a new battery and also ended up resetting to factory settings three times.

I called ATT on Tuesday.  After chatting about everything I have tried, she told me to call Samsung and said, 'We've been sending customers to Samsung if the usual troubleshooting doesn't work.  They will have you download Kies 3 and reload all the software.'

Soooooooooooooooooooooo, I had a web chat with Samsung support last night.  We went through the usual troubleshooting. After that, he said that he would submit a repair ticket and the turn-around would be around 11 days before I got my phone back, or I could contact my provider and run it through insurance.  WHAT?

First of all, I didn't ask for this update and I didn't ruin my phone.  WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO PAY?

I am very disappointed in the run-around I received from both ATT and Samsung.

SHAME ON YOU, BOTH.

 

ps. Post your issues here!

I tried using it in Safe mode also.

 

I ended up downloading Kies 3 and figuring it out myself, last night.

 

It's been almost 24 hours since I reloaded everything and praying this fixed the issue. So far, no overheating and it is charging.

We will see.

 

Otherwise, my friends and I are OUT OF HERE.
