Hi Phil. Check your battery. The S5 Active's NFC technology is in the battery. If you have a replacement battery or an OEM battery that doesn't support NFC, it won't work.
The original Samsung battery says "Near Field Communication" right below the Samsung logo.
Hope this helps.

you would download it from http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G925V/ but first, you would have to make an account on the website and flash it using odin 3.12
Am getting the update via verizon software upgrade assistant.
how big is the file?

some problem I noticed
First, I am using Verizon s6 edge on T-Mobile.
I installed the latest update thru Verizon update tool.
After the update, I noticed that sometime even there is 4 bars, the LTE logo is grayed out and I don't have internet connection. I have to toggle airplane mode on and off to get data back.
Do you have this same issue?
I don't have it before the update.
Thanks.
I turned off HD calling, seems solve the problem.

From what I've read, Nougat is now rolling out in Europe and soon in India. I'm guessing the US will be the last (as always) and a lot depends on the carrier you use, since they have final say as to when they update. Verizon is usually one of the last to update, so I'm guessing a couple more months.
Any chance we can root the phone after this update now?
Samsung SmartSwitch will allow you to plug your device into your PC using File Transfer Mode to update to a newer firmware even without the SIM Card.
It still tries to get me to update my firmware still at least. But I don't want to. Updating the firmware guarantees (more often than not) that any exploit found in an older firmware will already be patched. My goal will always be to utilize the Exynos7420 board to its fullest.

The first problem is that the IMEI on the back cover doesn't match the software imei.
The phone is not rooted but device status is custom.
Second problem is that it doesn't save wifi networks, have to re-enter password again after switching wifi on off.
Third the knox error "unauthorized actions have been detected"
And last screen mirroring shows hardware issue unable to connect.
Any help regarding these issues will be highly appreciated. I want to update to marshmallow but worry about phone network lock.

Device imei not matching software imei sounds extremely sketchy.
Yes that's I know. But there are possibilities like back cover was broken then changed or maybe motherrboaed.. Just concerned about if the imei is changed via software that will be a problem. Anyways any solution for the problem.?
fix
I got same problem with ts. such as forgettable wifi password and annoying notification about security. Any possibilities to fix it??
Thanks in advance

Why is my Note8 cannot read NFC tag but the other android phone can?

Hello...
After enable NFC in my Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and touch the NFC RFID card (13.56 MHz), my phone gives a message "Tag may be restricted". However, when I use other NFC enable Android phone, it reads and displays information just fine. I really need your help as I'm using this phone specifically for writing and reading NFC RFID card in identifying/updating trees information. TQ.
Some Note 8s have been experiencing issues related to NFC. Can you check if MST in Samsung Pay or wireless charging works?
I'm able to successfully read and write nfc cards for my amiibos
I have the same issue I can't read NFC tags but s5 it can. Any idea??????

Remote SIM Access Profile (rSAP)?

rSAP allows really cool integration with some cars.
Anyone knows if Note 9 supports it out of the box?
Just got the note 9 dual sim phone and it looks like there is no rSAP !!!... Going to miss this feature badly.

It does support it. Connects automatically to car! So nice
Only single sim supports this feature. This annoys me
Actually Note 9 support rSAP
Hi,
I was asking the same question after getting my new Note 9 dual sim.
First time when I connected to my car system (RNS 510 PREMIUM) I was very disappointed that it was not working as my previous phone (Note 4), after trying to finding on the internet if Note 9 is supporting the rSAP I was concluding that is not working on Samsung phones with dual sim.
Anyway, it was a nice surprise when he actually connected to my car system and I notice that I can make calls directly from the car system buttons and now is two days past and still working without any issues.
What happens exactly I can't be sure but it start working after one security update of the phone.
Hope this information will help somehow.
All the best!

So you're saying rSAP works with your dual sim note 9? What model? N9600 or N960F?
And what update did you get that made this possible?

Maybe I don't understand what is exactly rSAP but as I mentioned earlier, before the update it was now way to make a call directly from the buttons on the steering wheel or from the media system buttons and something else is that on the car media system display now is showing the strength of the mobile network wat wasn't before.
Sorry for the confusion if I misunderstood the mining of rSAP.
rSAP
rSAP is only necessary if your car needs data Connection from your phone! Only bluetooth and you can still make phonecalls! rSAP needed for google earth, news, weather...
