Samsung Galaxy S5

Yep

The cover adds a bit to the lip on the front and protects the corners.
Supposed to be getting another one soon as well, I'll see which I end up using.

How did the cover itself hold up?

nothing wrong (that was not wrong on arrival).

The backing is a piece of brushed aluminium, the rest is chromed plastic. Only issue I had was the chrome plating is scuffed in some places.

But as i said, they are sending me another free of charge.

Anyone know of an app that can reassign LED notifications?

Thanks fellas.
Is it worth buying the pro version?

I did - no complaints. But test first.

Noticed some peeling on my phone yesterday.
USB port (down to plastic on the edge) and back cover (one piece the clear coating has come off, on another piece by the usb port clear coating and gold has come off).

What does the lettering next to the signal icon look like when connected to lte? I've only ever seen 3g and edge. Not sure if my phone is connecting to the MTN lte network

Thanks. I'll check the lte coverage map and see what's going on

Just reading up on the MTN website. Am I supposed to pay the extra to use lte?

Edit: I see I'm already subscribed to the lte VAS service

back in the day (last year ) when they released LTE MTN was charging IIRC R30-50 for subscribers to use LTE - i think they backtracked on that

According to their maps, I am in a coverage area at home and work. Never seen an LTE connection...

Yip.
LTE/WCDMA/GSM is selected.

No idea if it will work for you but try choosing a different network then going back to mtn.

You sir then have the same problem I have - we need a sim Swap, we need to ensure apparently that the Sim is Lte Compatible as not all Micro sims are - and as i disbelieved this my friends with an Iphone had LTE that didn't work he even provisioned LTE still no go. had a Sim swap and boom it worked.
So if you don't mind waiting for me to get my lazy Ass into gear to do the sim swap ill tell you if it is indeed the case.

I'm with vodacom and they told me to do as described earlier. It worked. Maybe try it.

Go into mobile network> network operators and choose a different isp. Once it has connected turn it back to mtn then reboot
