    Is Samsung S5 Neo still supported?
    sammy_stehr
    over 1 year ago
    Galaxy S5 Neo, Galaxy S7, Galaxy S7 Edge, and Galaxy Note 8 are not eligible for software support, just like the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus. Despite this, all of these old flagship series handsets are being treated with a new software update.

    Why is my samsung galaxy s5 neo not charging?

    Try a different USB Cable and charge by Kies. Try charging it off via PC/Laptop. Try removing the battery for 3 minutes, let it cool down and then charging again. Blow inside the USB port and fix the contacts if it's bent.
