Definitely experienced higher battery drain all day yesterday after updating in the morning.

Today morning while the phone was still plugged in and at 100%, i did a clear cache from the recovery. Hopefully that sets things right. Will post back tomorrow.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] mukherjee:
Hi guys!

Let me ask a question.

The dual sim G935FD that we have, does it only support 2G in the 2nd sim when the other one is 3G/4G? Or can it go up to 3G/4G as well?

Coz as of the latest update, my diminutive RN3 supports 3G on another sim while 4G is active on one!

Any suggestions/answers welcome! Thanks a lot!

Going to root my 1month old S7 Edge.

Guys, Is the 2nd sim working on the 7.0 custom ROMs? (with Volte ofcourse :p)

And is there any particular step in rooting that I should be careful about?

Is rooting worth tripping Knox?? What wont work anymore after rooting?

Indian S7 Edge Gold (FD)

currently on MM.

Thanks :)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] mohitgalaxy3:
First decide why you want to root.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Dragneel96:
Phone started lagging while playing games.

Network isnt stable anymore.

Random wifi disconnects.

Random data disconnects.

Crappy battery life.

Everything runs in background.

Although bloat doesnt annoy me.. there are lot of unnecessary apks installed in the device.

And I got bored looking at the same UI and changing themes -_-

Dpi change would be better.

Adblocking.

NTFS usb support (??) :confused:

Main reason for deciding to root now is due to 7.0.

Well the s8 is gonna come with new features. And I am gonna get tempted to install customs roms containing ports anyway.

So just wanted to ask the already rooted users, that what wont be working in the phone after rooting.. and also about the 2nd sim.. volte too...

Thanks :)

Guys, want to downgrade from Beta to Marshmallow. Can someone help on how to do it without bricking?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Sukhi:
It would be too early to say if the battery life has improved but i see a noticeable difference over the last update.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] twisted_mind:
For everyone that had really bad battery drain post the previous december security patch update ( 280 odd mb one ), i was reading up on another forum yesterday and seems clearing the app cache through storage>>internal memory seems to get rid of the drain. Tried it yesterday afternoon and the drain seemingly stopped. Managed to cross the 6 hour SOT by midnight with 20% remaining. Otherwise for the past 3 days i was ending up at 4+ hours SOT at 30% daily by the time i ended the day.

Try this out... can't hurt to try. Also remember to reboot the phone post performing the steps.

**just downloaded the 12MB new patch.... still no clear indication from Samsung about what changes this brings.**
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Sukhi:
Were you registered on the beta prog? If yes, cancel your subscription first and flash the latest marshmallow firmware through odin. If you weren't enrolled than you can rightaway flash through odin. You can also downgrade through the official samsung smart switch desktop software. I prefer odin though.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] karantamboli:
Download correct MM firmware. Enable usb debugging power down and enter into doenload mode now connect your device to pc and open odin (latest version) now select MM all files correctly and then confirm all where correctly arranged or select and then hit start button and wait till complete. Done

Be sure tou have at leat 60% battery and download correct firmware and select correcr files.

Your email id and password required for setup to confirm.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] honest1212:
Thanks both. I know I am asking too much, but can you please guide me to the correct firmware for Indian version complete firmware(data wipe is fine) for MM version. ( ODIN method).

You can download through the samfirm software as it fetches directly from the server and plus you can download at full bandwidth. Updato is also good but they are generally late in updating to the latest firmware. If you use samfirm, dont forget to check decrypt automatically.

NOUGAT + JIO VoLTE = WORKING

Hi everyone.

I've literally gone through this entire thread, and I saw a lot of people wanting to upgrade to the new nougat system. As an Indian, I understand that most of us here in India would like it to work with JIO's VoLTE. Many, like myself, have had issues with it when it comes to CSC.

I have here links to the files that I used to make mine work flawlessly with JIO's VoLTE. I am using a ROM that is based on the Nougat BETA 5, and using a CSC selector that is intended for the Note 7 (but works perfectly with the S7 Edge). I have a Galaxy S7 Edge (FD variant).

ROM: Android Nougat 7.0 Beta-5 [ZPLH] ODEX/ROOT/BUSYBOX [v5.1]

CSC selector:- [10.10.16][SM-N930F/FD] Flashable CSC Selection V1.2

I did the following steps (will trip KNOX):

0. Place only Jio sim in slot 1. Don't use slot 2 now.

1. Boot into TWRP, take backup. After backup, transfer the backup folder .../TWRP/BACKUP to desktop (!)

2. Flash ROM file using TWRP (I had a rooted MM stock ROM before this)

2. Boot into the nougat system, complete the set-up.

3. After set-up, boot into recovery

4. Flash CSC selector file zip (select INS CSC in the AROMA menu)

5. Don't click reboot button in AROMA selector. Click exit.

6. Go back to TWRP menu and select format (including data, internal storage - reason why I asked to transfer TWRP backup files to desktop)

7. Boot into system

8. VoLTE icon should now be visible after you complete the setup.

I hope this helps.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] twisted_mind:
Yup seems much better. Although i my edge is sitting idle without sim in it since i'm using another phone for the past 2-3 days. But the standby drain is negligible. My guess the previous 280MB patch messed up some deep sleep issue and the latest 12MB patch maybe fixed it.

How are the rest of the folks here doing with the new patch? My wife's s7 edge strangely still on the 280MB december patch is doing just as fine as before. Weird because it's the exact same hardware and both indian models.

Very new user.. Help Please....

Guys,

I recently purchased S7 Edge(SM-G935FD) from US. I got United Arab Emirates Model. I need to change this to Indian firmware so that it can support VOLTE for Relaince Jio. I searched many threads and here are my basic understanding and questions.

1. Most of the threads suggest me to install INS firmware from Sammobile. I am not sure how to do this install, there are steps provided in sammobile page itself but is there a video available of how to do this?(My old phone is Samsung Guru I am new to Android itself)

2. Once I do this will I be able to get VOLTE and also OTA update for Indian Firmware?

3. Will I be requiring root for doing this change for my mobile? I don't want to brick my mobile without knowing these details.

4. Will these wipe my data completely in my mobile?

Any other details needed from my mobile please reply back.

Happy New Year!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] AlanDS:
1) Yes. You have to install INS firmware to use Jio VoLTE. There are many tutorials on this forum. You may search on Youtube. Visit this link and have a look http://xdaforums.com/s7-edge/how-to/official-stock-firmware-update-odin-t3335065

2) Yes

3) Root not required.

4) Yes. It will wipe all data including internal storage. So backup before you proceed.

Guys I wanted to post about the nilkin case I found on Amazon. The first one I bought is on left and second one on the right. Both are the same product though bought from a different seller. Though case wise first one is better, but the thing is with the second one you get a proper full body screen guard ( pet film I think). The screen guard makes the second one a sweet deal. Finally a screen guard which properly covers the phone. It's been only a day but I hope it'll stay because the glue was very very strong.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] Sukhi:
There are lot of fake nilkin products being sold on Amazon. I bought the first one as it gives all round protection, has a nice grip and it came with the original nilkin full screen guard. A genuine nilkin product would always come a screen guard. From where did you buy your phone?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] muhammedr95:
I think the first is genuine but the screen guard which I got with it is the partial one, Which doesn't cover the full screen. Whereas the second might not be genuine but the screen guard make it worth it. But these cases gets cracked easily if you often remove your phone from it.

That was back when i was in college. Taxpayers money. IIT perks :P. Airtel broadband offers good speed 40mbps.
