[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Kirren:
Hello,

I'm starting to hate my S7 Edge, and I'm really missing my Edge 6 Plus. Has anyone else had these problems and perhaps have any advice for resolving them? I've searched around and can't find any other reports of these problems.

First, if I'm traveling, *sometimes* I can't use the Google Navigation App if I'm in motion. For example, if I'm driving home, and I decide to get gas, if I say "OK Google, navigate to the Gas Station" It will of course find a close gas station, and allow me to choose which one. After I do so, the app will plot a course, but then will fail to acquire a satellite. The app will just sit there constantly saying "Acquiring Satellite" (or something to that effect, I can't remember the exact error) but it never does find the satellite. The only fix for this is to repeatedly turn off and on the Location services, until eventually it just works. Which is extremely infuriating not to mention dangerous while driving. I rememeber falling in love with my S6 Edge Plus because it had such an easy time navigating and this S7 Edge is so consistently terrible at locating my position.

Second, this is a problem I did not know I had until today: After mis-placing my phone, I went to the Google "Find my phone" web page on my computer, to force my cellphone to ring. I have used this service before with all my other phones and it never failed to force the device to ring. But this time, my S7 did not ring. Luckilly I was able to find my phone on my own. When I did locate it, i noticed that there was an icon in the notification tray saying "Ringing phone" and yet the phone was NOT RINGING! With the phone in hand, I tried to use the webpage to locate my phone by ringing it again. The same thing happened. It put a notification up that my phone was "ringing" in the phone's notification display, but made no actual noise.

I checked the settings - > Lock Screen and Security -> Find my Mobile, and it asks me for my Samsung Account Password.

Why my samsung account? Why not google? I don't understand.

So I signed in, and google location service is set to ON, as expected. Remote controls is also set to ON. There is a notification at the bottom that says to track and control my device, go to: findmymobile.samsung

So I go there, and I tell it to ring my phone, and what do you know? It rings my phone perfectly. Noise and everything.

How do I switch it over to google's service? I really don't like most of Samsung's software offerings, and would prefer to use native google apps out of convenience. I don't remember ever having this problem with any other galaxy device. Not even my tablet does this.

Can anyone help?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] meyerweb:
I haven't had any GPS problems with mine (U.S. Sprint version). What are your location settings? Make sure it's set to use GPS, and not just network or WiFi.

Find My Mobile and Android 's service are two different things FMM is Samsung's product. To make sure Google's is active, go to Device Administrators and make sure Android Device Manager is turned on. Then go to Apps, scroll to the bottom and tap on Google, then scroll down and tap on Security. Make sure 'Remotely locate this device' (and 'Allow remote lock and erase' if you want that) are turned on.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Kirren:
I have GPS, WIFI and Mobile Networks turned on.

-Android Device Manager is turned on in the Device Administrators Section.

-I am not sure how to complete the second instructions. I do not see "Apps" as an option in the Settings panels. Can you advise where to find it?

Thank you!
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] meyerweb:
Settings / Applications

Scroll to bottom, tap Google (on my Sprint S7 Edge, it's the very last item).

Scroll down until you see "Security" and tap there.

The first two toggles (on mine) are "Remotely locate this device" and "Allow remote unlock and erase."
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Kirren:
Ah, I was able to find the settings under Google, however both are already checked. Are there any other settings I need to check?

{{Edit: I toggled the setting just to test it, and now it seems to be working. I don't know why this worked, because the setting was already properly configured. But it works now. *shrug* Thank you so very much for your help and patience!}}
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] meyerweb:
Glad to help. I seen lots of things get fixed when you toggle a setting. Something in the settings file got corrupted, and toggling the settings on and off rewrote what should have already been there. At least that's my guess.

Need ROM for Jlinksz i960 K107 MediaTek MTK6592T Octa Core 1.6 GHz, 4gb Ram, 32GB, Dual Sim, 10.1", "Android 5.1" "Tablet"

This tablet got stuck on an Android logo. I tried to flash it with what the seller says was the correct firmware but it was not. And now I am stuck with it!!

Connects to SP Flash tool. I have installed the correct drivers. As well as I can connect with SP Flash Tool using Linux also.

Could someone please help me find the correct firmware for this tablet or if anyone has one, could they make a back up, which would be really good as I would know its 100% the correct one.

Thanks in advance.

Hi! I've got mine stacked to MEDIATEK LOGO!. I try to connect it to my PC (Win 7) but the driver installs but when I connect the tablet with the usb cable it connects at first and disconnects imediately!.. So I CANNOT USE ANY IMAGE PROGRAMME!. What is the steps you did to connect it to your pc?.

Thanks!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skelmy:
Hey, sorry for the long reply. I haven't been on here in years. I cannot remember now. I sent the tablet back in the end, as he gave me the file to flash to the tablet. I just got my money back, he gave me the file and the instructions on what to do, from the actual manufacturer in China, and this happened. So they are not good.

Currently looking for anything other than M-Rom for a Sony Xperia Z3+ Dual (Z4 in Japan rest of the world Z3+, very odd thing for Sony to do).

Why again would you want to use that if you're all set with your phones?? Unless you're getting it for the first time and setting it up from scratch to a network or so.
[Sprint Note 7  Questions & Answers] mariano3113:
The dialer codes won't work right away after initial device configuration.

Seems the device needs full account activation before the dialer codes work reliably.

Same thing happens if you activate a different device and then switch back to the Note 7. Dialer codes won't work on Note 7 for awhile.
[Sprint Note 7  Questions & Answers] Tb0n3:
It's been over a week.
[Sprint Note 7  Questions & Answers] mariano3113:
Dialer codes didn't work for my Note 7 from August 18th until August 28th.

So it took 10 days from initial activation for dialer codes to work.(Stock ROM)

After swapping to Nexus 5 and then back to Note 7 it took about 48hrs for dialer codes to work....(using Userdebug ROM)

Are you using Stock ROM or Userdebug.build?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grymmy:
hey guys, I need some advice or assistance with a wifi issue on my D855 32GB, running Fullmics 6.1.

The issue is, every time my device goes into deep sleep, is inactive for a lengthy period, the wifi connection becomes dormant until i wake the device. Also, if i enter another area of saved wifi connection, I have to wake the device in order to get connected. For example; if I leave home wifi and enter work wifi I will not connect until i wake the device and vice versa (work wifi to home wifi no connection until device i awoken)

Please, can someone assist?

I did posted this before, got some answers saying it maybe marshmallow/doze related. If so, how do i make adjustments?

P.s. I tried several ROMs and same issue, however, when i first got my device, stock everything (Lollipop), the issue was non existent.

many thanks in advance fellow xda members.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NatusVincere:
I had/have same issue since first MM version of Fulmics, it was never fixed. You said you have it on other MM ROMs so I wont point fingers at Fulmics dev since not all users are experiencing it.

Things I tried to do to fix it:

Only possible alternative solution instead of switching ROMs is to make device use internet connection full time, to make it never go to deep sleep.

Perfect app for that would be:

Either go back to old modem and bootloader or upgrade firmware.

Also, since you updated your bootloader, then it isn't Knox-free anymore (assuming you have one of the newer ones now). Knox is related to the bootloader.

and i noticed that when connected for the first time, on my OP3 it displays (Bluetooth Media Browsing with the contents of "Peer supports advanced feature. Re-pair from peer to enable it")

Tried on both 3.2.4 and 3.5.0, both have the same problem.

Users of TWRP are showing up in the #android-root channel saying that TWRP is broken and won't flash on G900PVPU3CPG1 (released today, August 25th 2016).

As I'm not familiar with the S5 and whether or not it requires some form of OEM unlock procedure in Marshmallow, I figured I'd ask you guys here.

Proceed to upgrade with caution, I don't know if you can downgrade from it?

Ok, this post got me scared. Now I have downloaded the new update, but i have postponed the installation. In the mean time I rooted the phone (G900PVPS3CPE2). Can it be that users are not using the correct version of TWRP to install? I followed the instructions here. In these instructions, it is mentioned not to use the newer version of TWRP (twrp-3.0.2-1-klte.img.tar) but the older version (twrp-3.0.2-0-klte.img.tar). Maybe that has something to do with twrp not loading through odin. Can anyone confirm root with latest update (G900PVPU3CPG1)?

Correct, that issue should be fixed in 3.0.2-2.

The only reason to use 3.0.2-0 is for Aroma support (Aroma hasn't been updated in a very long time and doesn't support newer kernel framebuffer drivers afaict)
