There are two main things that are killing me atm...
1. If I send an email to myself on the gmail app I'll get duplicates instead of one... WHY IS THAT!?! i tried everything I can think of to stop it...
2. My phone all of a sudden started doing a audible notification when I do or don't have a network signal and it's driving me nuts... I looked everywhere in setting. I seem to remember a settings where you can shut off the notification sound off. As of now I have "notification sounds" off.
For reference I'm on 5.1.1 thanks for your help in advanced.

Can you provide screenshots it'd help me out.
Are you on stock?
Yes, stock. Not rooted.
I can take screen shots, but don't know how it will help. 2 has been sorta resolved since I left the sound off. I could've swarn i remember a setting before to toggle if you wanted an audible warning if you did or didn't have a mobile connection. The emails do it still but is more random than consistent. It will do it on wifi and mobile data. I think it has to do with sync though.

Well see if its the syncing. With a screenshot I can pinpoint the issue out right away.
That notification sound is an OS issue, while the duplicate mail issue is a Gmail issue, so I would try to maybe:
1. Clear Gmail data from Settings-> Gmail -> Clear data
2. Force a re-sync from Settings-> Accounts -> Google
3. Send yourself an email on the desktop site and see if it still happens. If it does it's a google service issue and not an app issue.
I found a fix. I'm getting a LG V10. Lol... Thanks for the help though anyways.

OK so this is completely new to me. My current location for weather has changed. Any ideas? It almost looks like Arabic text, however the location weather is correct. Any ideas? Driving me crazy.

i would try rebooting, if that doesnt help maybe turn on gps and fiddle with maps until you get a location for yourself then re-sync the weather.

tried it all man. I've rebooted, restored various roms and they all switch to that as my location, tried maps too. no dice on anything.
like i said, the weather condition and temps are correct.....UGH!
I think it looks like its from around Indonesia or Malaysia? Maybe your phone thinks you are on vacation in Kuala Lumpur
Hah well glad I know what locale my phone thinks I'm at. Driving me crazy though. Between this and my new found poor bluetooth A2DP streaming I think I may be heading towards a replacement phone.
In case this comes up with others, it's a bug with VZW's location services. Make sure to not have that turned on. HTC apparently acknowledges this bug with their weather widget and the service. Google and GPS are fine to use.

Following up more. I'm rooted and this only seems to be affecting custom ROMs. Stock sense does not have this problem. Not positive now what this is, but it is still happening.
Having the same issue on my phone. Running Bamf 1.3 and the 1.76ghz kernel and apparently my phone things i'm in Iceland, when i'm really in Florida lol. Weird as heck bug.
First, I flashed Beans 4.3 OTA leak then his official 4.3, and both worked perfect. No random reboots or fc's. Then I just installed Sophisticated 2.0, and again no issues.
Other than the fact I keep getting a notification saying my wifi connected to my network even though it was already connected, and I always have it set to keep wifi on during sleep.
I tried searching, but couldn't find anything that sounded like my issue. I attached a screenshot of the notification I get at least a few times a day.

That is an annoyance, but thankfully one that can (newly) be turned off. Go to settings, wifi, advanced and uncheck 'wi-fi notifications'.

Thank you so much. It wasn't really a big deal, more annoying than anything. Coming from 4.1.2 I never had that, but that had that stupid wifi always in the notification panel.

(Sorry for the late reply - missed the notification on the forums.)
Glad to help - I've always hated that ongoing alert in the stock ROM. It's great to have an option to turn it off.
whenever I get an incoming call with caller ID, a lady's voice would voice prompt who is calling and it's so loud!!!
I just switched from S4 to S5. I remembered it did the same thing on my S4 when I first got it but I was able to quickly disable it. But with the S5, I tried and tried and couldn't find a solution. I'm not in driving mode FYI...
Any idea??? Thansks!

Check in settings> language and input. Might also want to check accessibility settings.

Did you install any app that requires access to "Accessibility"?
Some apps like Tasker requires you to enable accessibility and you will get a prompt that says "If you enable accessibility for that app, you won't be able to use talkback, air view.... etc...."
I remember that back in S4, it caused problems and made talkback becomes active from time to time even when it was unchecked due to a bug.
I don't know if you did change accessibility or not but just wanted to mention that.

My WhatsApp web keeps telling my phone is not connected as soon as the phone screen goes black.
The second I press any button and the screen is activated, then my messages gets delivered and WhatsApp web start working again.
Any idea?

Add WhatsApp to never sleep and in app info of WhatsApp, battery, turn off optimize battery usage.

These settings were already like that (I think).
Is there anywhere else I should look at?

Did you also check in device care: battery, uncheck power saving mode
click background usage limits
add whatsapp to never sleeping apps.
Theres nothing else I did to get whatsapp to stay running.
Maybe reinstalling whatsapp might help. I've seen oddities fixed by that OR clearing data (which also resets the app to new).

Run backup to Google drive in WhatsApp and reinstall. I've seen bugs like that and modern software sucks so badly you'll never know why. Example Turbo tax 2020 is the current piece of crap that they know has an issue with windows 10 that they haven't fixed yet.
So I connect to my work van via Bluetooth and use Google Maps with multiple stops.
When I'm on the phone to a friend while Google Maps is running in the foreground and phone in background and I arrive at a stop, instead of being able to click "continue" and go on the the next stop, my phone automatically switches back to the ongoing phone call! I then have to switch back to Google Maps and click continue and sometimes it takes a few seconds to continue to the next stop and I notice my data shows H+ and not LTE so I'm assuming it has something to do with the data somehow dropping connection when I'm on a call and then comes back when I open Google Maps again!
Anyone else had this issue? It's really annoying when I have multiple stops and on a call!
A solution could be to enable VoLTE.

VoLTE is already enabled and it is on WiFi preferred but shouldn't be an issue because my old S10+ was on the same and had no issues with it all
You have described 2 issues. 1) after disconnecting a call, maps doesn't appear but rather the phone app. Solution: go to phone settings and change the "call display while using app" to small pop-up. 2) data switching to H+ when on call...VoLTE should solve this which apparently is already enabled and you say is not working...for this does the VoLTE logo appear on the status bar..if not, you need check with your phone company to give you VoLTE enabled sim card.

1) the call does not disconnect it is ongoing but rather when I get to the next stop on Google Maps because I have multi-stops, the phone app automatically pops back up full screen even tho in settings, it is set to small popup.
2) Yes, the VoLTE symbol is in status bar always
Edit; I'm guessing this option below "Keep calls in popup" might solve my issue?!

That could solve the issue. However the other issue still persists - data drops

I wonder what that issue could be considering my VoLTE is already turned on
