Hi,

I have the same problem, my phone struggled to update to CM13 and then when I did manage to get it to boot, my WiFi didn't work.

I have tried your persist fix (I installed the theme, went to mount, clicked persist, flashed the zip, mounted persist again then reboot system) and still my WiFi doesn't work. :(

Is this because I'm XT1068 and not XT1063?

Can you help please? :)

Thanks.

You my friend are a legend, thank you very much!

Had to do it with ES file explorer rather than TWRP but it worked a charm on reboot.

MEGA THANKS.

My lock screen won't stay set to a unlock method. I have changed the unlock to patternpattern, pass code, and fingerprint. After a little while it goes back to just swipe. Even though, I'll go to the setting and it'll say it's still set to whatever method I have it set to. But for whatever reason the actual lock screen goes back to swipe. Also when it does work, the fingerprint reader is hit and miss. I'll have fingerprint and password or code and then the fingerprint reader won't even recognize I'm trying to use it. Anyone else having similar issues or know of a fix?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Milimbar:
It actually is staying what you set it at.

Samsung as usual has set up some stupid defaults for this phone.

Go here and set it to Instantly and it will work as you expect.

Settings > Quick Settings > Lock screen and security > Secure lock settings > Secure lock time > Instantly with the power key or when the screen times out

With those settings every time you unlock your phone you will need whatever security you set.

With the default settings Samsung has it so your phone will only lock if you do not touch the phone for 10 minutes..... real secure there Samsung...

As for the fingerprint reader, when you set it up hold the phone like you would be unlocking it and use every part of the finger during the setup process.

I added both thumbs and index fingers using the tip, flats, and sides of each during the setup process.

If for some reason it does not want to read still, you can set up the same finger multiple times, do one as just the flat, one as the sides, one as the tip.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] tyoder87:
That's exactly how everything is set up on my device though. I have it set to lock immediately and did all angles of my fingers. Still won't keep the lock screen set and won't read the fingerprints. It doesn't give me a does not match message or anything. At least when that happens, I know it's trying to read my finger.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Milimbar:
In that case I do not know.

You could try a factory reset, but I do not know if that will help.

If mine did that I would be returning it for a replacement.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] tool2269:
Also make sure settings/lock screen/secure lock/smart lock isn't set to anything that's trusted.

Smart lock leaves the phone in swipe unlock if it recognizes your phone is at your home..or hook up to your Bluetooth, etc.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] tyoder87:
So after digging around some more, I found out what was happening. I have a Moto 360 paired to my phone. I had it as a trusted device and that's what was allowing me to do swipe while still having the lock screen set to something else. However, my fingerprint reader is still acting up. It's still not even trying to read my fingerprints.

Go to settings and search smart lock... It shows that if you ate home the screen stays unlock but if u leave anywhere it'll lock..you can turn the location off when. You get into smart lock
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] d@rklink:
The same thing is happening with mine (SM-G935A AT&T). However, when I go to the secure lock settings, it keeps changing from lock instantly to the maximum setting (which shows as 34 minutes and 7 seconds). Smart Lock has been completely disabled by system administrator (I get my corporate email on my phone). Every time I go in and change the secure lock to instant, it reverts back within the next 30 minutes.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] ms.shields.913@gmail.com:
Mine is doing the same thing automatically changes to 34 min and 7 seconds secured lock time without me changing it from instantly w power key so frustrating
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] d@rklink:
If you don't mind me asking, what device administrators do you have setup? Currently I have my company exchange policy, Lookout Mobile, AT&T Protect Plus and Android as registered administrators. I'm starting to wonder if its the combination of services like maybe the Protect Plus and Lookout.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] ms.shields.913@gmail.com:
Hi! Lookout, email and Android device manager are all administrators I think in personal settings
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] d@rklink:
I figured out the issue, at least for me. First I tried to disable both Lookout and ATT Protect Plus as device administrators but still the lock setting would revert to 34 minutes and 7 seconds. In my account settings for my corporate email, there was a link for all security policies. Sure enough, the screen lock policy showed as 2047 seconds which translates to 34 minutes and 7 seconds. I cannot change the option as that is the corporate policy set by the server.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Kashifsheikh:
This is an issue with Samsung s7 including the edge. Mine was playing up from the day I got it. I took it into carphone warehouse assuming it was a setting and the guy serving me basically said to send it back. I eventually got a refund from Samsung (it was painful) and then I stupidly bought another one of these overpriced, over hyped pieces of **** from John Lewis instead. I've always used windows (mobile (i.e. what I'd call old android and what XDA was made for) and then windows phone and briefly windows 10 mobile. From my short experience of using the so called best android phone I have to say gimmicks aside, the features both phones share, windows destroys android, emails, documents, ease of use, fluidity, user experience....oh and a working lock screen. Not happy and it's my own fault, I fell for mass marketing and believing the hype.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Darling1:
I think I found the answer

If you have a device like a Bluetooth paired with your s7 edge, make sure that smart lock isn't on. Once I changed that that setting, it stays locked.

Thank you for the tip it really helped me fix the lock on my new samsung galaxy amp prime!!!!

Restart your phone

I made sure i made my password effective immediately (it was set to 5 seconds) after you lock your phone and it didn't work.

Then I realized that I didn't restart my phone yet.

Lock screen was effective immediately after I restarted my phone. Solved my case!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Zass86:
Fixed

Its quite simple, it is smart as samsung has made s7/edge to recognize you and let your phone stay unlock whenever it is around you. Once, it has been unclocked by you, you dont have to set in the passcode each time to look at your phone. But dont worry, it will revert back to lock mode once it noticed that you'v set it aside on a surface i.e leaving it. Should you want to make your phone locked at all time whenever you want it, simply change the setting as follows: Setting > Lock screen and security > Secure lock settings > Smart lock > (enter your pin) > On-body detection > set it to off. Whallaaa!! Problem solved.

Go to settings/lock screen and security/other security settings/trust agents and turn off Google Smart lock option.

You are back to instant phone lock.

So, if we aren't able to get root for US variants, what would be the downfall of getting an unlocked (and root) Canadian variant and using it in the US?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] duvalbmarley:
How do you know the Canadian version is unlocked
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] seanvree:
Because I Google it. Seriously. All versions are unlocked except US variants.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] Rx8Driver:
Interesting. And a Canadian gsm device could potentially be made to work on tmo. Might take some creativity and a mixture of hybrid software and patches but it sounds feasible; I'm so glad I waited to get one! Makes me wonder if the bootloader being locked is what's taking so long to bring us variants up to 6.0.1, could they be looking to release mm by ota and locking our bl's in the process?

Edit: cuz i sure don't want to end up updating to mm only to find my T variant now has a locked MM BL!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] seanvree:
I mean, the Tmo Canadian variant has 4GLTE. WOuldn't even need to be unlocked, simply get your hands on a Canadian variant.

The Canadian one is Exynos but it's the international version. Someone would have to check if that version even supported US bands.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] duvalbmarley:
Does wifi calling and VoLTE work on TMOBILE with the Canadian version could someone confirm
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] combatmedic870:
It does not.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] PunishedSnake:
If volte and WiFi calling are important stick with the T model
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] risestar2:
The specs show that the Canadian model supports all the T-Mobile and AT&T LTE: Bands (2/4/5/12/13/17/25/30/41) as well as the 4g HSPA frequencies (850/900/1700/1900/2100)

If you live near Vancouver, Edmonton of Toronto, you can get an unbranded one from a Samsung Experience store and it comes with factory unlock codes

Of course no T-Mobile VOLTE or wifi calling. But everything else, including fully rootable
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] dgriffin2013:
The whole reason we want the T-Mobile one unlocked is because AOSP does not support Exynos. There is much more potential for ROM development on the SD820 than on the Exynos. At this point though the Exynos does seem better than the locked Snapdragon. It is also possible that the Chinese version might be the best of both worlds (Unlocked BL+SD820) but I have not heard much on if it supports the important 4G bands for ATT/T-Mobile.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] Rx8Driver:
I think in gonna take a look at that now. I personally don't use wifi calling at all, alright i have to admit volte would be a loss for me, well with the loss of the ims service for advanced messaging and i believe native video calling, but an unlocked bootloader and faster exynos (i haven't flashed an aosp rom in forever) chip is almost a flat trade in my book. I might consider it if development for the s7 exynos starts looking promising. I wouldn't be against a fly unlocked exynos s7 edge, that'd be pretty sweet if there were a few roms and some kernel love from a couple devs, but that requires source code so.........time will tell i guess.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] ldc2335:
Just got this in, and I think it finalized my decision to go naked. I tried four spigens, and now two of these icarez, and the sides just won't stay down.

About the product. It's probably twice as thick as the spigen, and doesn't quite cover the screen. It covers enough though that you don't catch your finger when swiping the edge. It's goes to the edge of the screen, just not the edge of the glass. You shouldn't have any trouble with MOST cases either.

Install wasn't bad. They give you an assortment of creative stickers and rubber bands to aid in alignment. I followed the instructions exactly and my results were sub par. I consider myself to be a seasoned veteran screen protector installer. Neither these or the spigen will stay down, mostly on the lower edges. .

The feel is great since it's a very hard film. It does finger print like a son of a *****.

Edges are a little jagged.

Clarity is perfect.

Overall, it wasn't amazon prime so I'm probably stuck with em. I'll see it I can live with it till the revised version spigen is sending me come in.

Here's the pics.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] wll:
Also looking for the perfect PET screen protector. I always trust spigen but I'm not liking what's currently being offered as it leaves large sections of the screen exposed. But maybe they're not as bad as I think. Mind describing the spigen screen protectors you tried out? And what are these 'revised' versions they're sending you?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Beefheart:
Looks to have the usual glass/hard material screen protector on a curved screen issue. Namely lifting on the curve where they can never get the shape exactly right. These things are to be avoided, they never worked on the S6 Edge/S6 Edge+ and they won't work on the S7 Edge either. Not to mention the fact it doesn't cover the screen fully anyway looking at those photos. Stick to standard film protectors, if you buy the right one and apply them correctly you won't have any problems.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
I have the same set arriving today, I'll let you know if I have an success installing them.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] ldc2335:
After using glass, the thought of an orange peel film protector feels like a giant leap back to 2009.

Are there any worth a damn these days?

I always used bodyguards, phantom skins, and a few other "good" brands a few devices back and the were okay because it was all that was available, but I hate the feel of all of them compared to the pet and glass.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] ldc2335:
The spigen felt better, was thinner, smoother and covered more of the glass. It went on perfect except for the bottom curved edges. They wouldn't stay down and after one or two slides in the pocket, they got lint under them. Spigen self identified and sent me this.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Beefheart:
Using a Zagg HD Dry myself. It's nothing like the old rubbery Zagg I had on my old S2. Smooth and sticks to the screen well. Check the screenshot in the other thread.

Personally, I'd prefer a glass one, prior to buying the S7 Edge I was running with them on my Note 3 for years. But, like it or not, it simply isn't an option on this phone unless you don't mind constantly having to press it back down onto the curved edges after it raises.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Eddie Hicks:
I'm with you. I hate to have to go back to plastic film. I never had a plastic film protector that made me forget that I had it on. The glass protectors feel more like the actual screen. Not only do they protect from scratches they can also to some degree protect from getting screen cracks. This is my first edge phone. I had no idea that there was such an issue making a glass screen that can fit properly. I've only had my phone for 5 days and this is my longest without a screen protector ever. I may just have to go with plastic film until a decent glass protector is available.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] mocsab:
I installed this screen protector yesterday and frankly I was very impressed. For a platic screen protector, it works and looks exceptionally well. I don't know if they re-engineered it since yuo bought yours, but mine covers my glass completely - with a case on (Spigen Neo Hybid Cyrstal) you can't see the edges of the screen protector at all - covers from the bottom of the home button to the top where the notification lights and speaker is. The feel is great - almost like glass - no bubbles - installation was tricky for me - I blew it on the first attempt and had to use the 2nd screen protector that came in the package - but at under 6 bucks for two screen protectors, I didn't mind that at all -

If you try this one, be sure to watch teh video very carefully and follow their steps to the letter - if you do - like I did the 2nd time around - the installation will go well.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] JoshuaFCB:
i got the same. edges just won't stay down
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] wll:
If spigen does indeed fix the adhesive it sounds like that screen protector would be really good. Looking forward to some pics after you receive and install them when you get a chance.

Spigen's ultra optics back in the day were AMAZING. They were the usual PET film but anti-fingerprint except it didn't feel as rough as others and left ZERO rainbow effect on the screen. I'm still confused as to why they stopped making them for devices. But ya, the other wet application, orange peel, rubbery and tacky films are the worst. Would rather go naked than slap any of those on my screen

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
I posted pictures of mine above which fits just fine.; it's a fingerprint magnet, but it does work. The Spigen one felt like pure sh*t and was super thin (hair thin) and had less coverage. I'm awaiting my shipment of the revised version from them now.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] ipaq_101:
Right but Moscab said that his version covers the entire screen, so I was just curious. I emailed icarez and they said it covers the entire screen as well.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] Pilz:
It technically does just not the whole front of the phone. The screen was always 100% covered but the front glass was not. He didn't specify if he meant the front glass which is different
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Accessories] ldc2335:
Update.

I've left it on this whole time, and while it still isn't perfect, it hasn't lifted or given me any trouble. I don't know if I want to waste it by removing it when my revised spigens get here.
