Hi,
I've recently started using Samsung's A5 device and I must say it's pretty good however it does have some issues for me.
Firstly, it doesn't have the wonderful floating icons for screenshots and other functions as on the S5 I ws using previously. Please fix this because it's such a handy feature. Second, it doesn't have an icon or shortcut key for turning mobile data on or off and I find this highly annoying since I have to go all the way into the settings, go to connections, blah blah blah by which time it's almost time to go to bed, honestly! I thought this was an oversight and would have been adjusted with the regular updates but it seems it's a permanent feature. PLEASE ADD A CONVENIENT ON/OFF ICON FOR MOBILE DATA ON THE SLIDING TRAY WHERE WE HAVE OTHER USELESS ICONS THAT WE REALLY DON'T NEED THERE!!!
Lastly, (for now at least), the "swipe to type" option for Samsung Keyboard is not very good at all. I have to constantly rewrite/retype my words and this for even the simplest words. I find the swipe to type feature on even the entry level Microsoft Windows 435 to be easy more intuitive and responsive and you don't even have to concentrate hard (had to retype 'concentrate' so many times just now for example...) to type anything using swipe to type.
Other than that a brilliant device! Please fix the issues I mentioned and we'll be best friends I'm sure.
Regards
Babamike

Again for the 112th time, please search for your issue before posting.
Mobile Data QS tiles are removed because your beloved carrier cares about you and doesn't want you to worry about disabling mobile data and they want you to express your gratitude by paying absurdly high overage fees.
The solution is here and it was only a search away:
https://community.samsungmembers.com/fr_CA?projectId=0&meta=#/post?postId=208326
It was actually posted 9 posts under this one...
Plus a little comment: to help future persons find a solution, it would be nice to have a more descriptive title than A5. Your suggestion is not the Galaxy A5, but it's to restore one function and to enhance another. If everyone typed A5 or S9 or Note8 instead of their real issue, it would be a mess. That's just a comment

The arrogance!!? How am I supposed to guess that it's been posted 112th times??? The only reason I posted is because I'm clueless and need answers. I
I think you forget that customer is King and that Samsung is not the only mobile device manufacturer out there.
I think I deserve an apology. I feel rather insulted
