Read the OP, take a minute and understand it, read it again to verify you understand it and then follow it exactly how it says.

You don't need to read the over 100 pages...just the first post.

Verify your software version prior to the install !!

That's what I still use atleast
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] MArtyChubbs:
try the Pixel XL... it's all that!

Also, is "and they get updates for life." your opinion? I have a few old iPads that did not get ios 10...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] knox0x1:
I just seen on YouTube that the official samsung release is out.. any word if this is for us as well?

I'm not sure you've used an iPhone in a while. The system gets worse each update. This is coming from an Apple Technician.

This.

I'll admit iPhones are nice, it's not for me though.

But on my iPad every update I get makes it perform so much worse.

I didn't know i Pads weren't updated at the same time. I'll have to research the update situation better before making such a comment again. Ooops. The Pixel does seem like another good choice for change this year. I'll wait to see the 2nd release though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] MArtyChubbs:
I had the s7 edge, but l like to mod and root my phone. So, it's a better fit for me now. If i could get an unlocked s8 that worked on vzw, I'd try that or the Pixel 2 next. Samsung makes the best phone, I wish they'd build the Pixel 2...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] zimgir124:
Yes.

It won't allow you to install on anything other than PH1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] rizzo269:
I was running the beta for quite some time and all of a sudden the phone started stuttering and freezing daily. I had installed a pharmacy app right when I noticed the performance degradation so I removed it but the stuttering continued. A lot when I was listening to Pandora through Bluetooth. I odin'ed back to PH1 and applied the beta updates again and all seems to be running really smooth so far. Much better than before actually. Hopefully we get the final release soon!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jsminnis:
I have three questions.

1) Does the theme store work properly?

2) Does Video and Wifi calling work?

3) Will I get the Nougat Ota when it comes Out?

Thank You.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kenshin6105:
Wi-Fi works really well. Wi-Fi calling as well I have good app for that.

The theme store works really well.

Video calling should work out the box if your carrier aka sim card supports it. Everything should work perfectly if you are experiencing errors. Do a native install of ph1 don't update ph1 leave everything as is then follow jrkruzes guide to install 7.0 and you should have a perfect install.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jsminnis:
Are you talking about his guide on page 16? Also should I install beta 2 as well? Sorry, one last thing, will this affect adoptable storage or should I reformat my card?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] zimgir124:
1:Guide in OP is the exact same as his.

2:I'd install beta 2.

3:I don't know if it will affect adoptable storage or not.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jsminnis:
What is this Wifi calling app you are referring to?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] GeoFX:
Verizon had the WiFi calling feature built-in. Go to Settings > Advanced Calling > WiFi Calling and enable. Even on the beta it works and is free if you're traveling out of country and calling a US number.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kenshin6105:
I use this app called ding tone it works really good. Just download it from the play store.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jsminnis:
Finally took the plunge and installed this. I did a fresh install the did a factory reset after the beta 2 flash. My problem is when I make a call I get a message that says there will be no data during this call... It makes no sense since I have had voice and video calling enabled under advanced calling. Any help?

Been at it all night trying everything I know to do, still no volte.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jsminnis:

You have to set your apn settings. And set your network mode to global.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] :
Your screenshot shows 1X coverage. Just to confirm... Are you using a Verizon device with a Verizon SIM card on the Verizon network? Are you in area that should have 4G (or at least 3G) mode?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
Is Verizon even supporting the s7 anymore. Not one update in 3 months. Even the note 4 has gotten 2 updates in this time. The s5 has gotten 4
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jsminnis:
I finally fixed it. It was the vpn I'm using. I had to whitelist vzwapn. Thanks for the reply.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kenshin6105:
Lol I'm on straight talk on a tmobile network at first I was getting a horrible speed. It doesn't matter what off brand you use as long as your apn settings reflects the tower your using you'll be good. There plenty of apn configurations out there. You can also edit your apn settings to your likings as long as your sim allows it.

Is anyone else having to do a factory reset monthly because the phone starts locking up and freezing? I have had to reset twice now after about a month of use each time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] MyndMayze:
Sorry if this has been asked I skimmed through a bunch of pages and with my phone becoming so laggy being on the rooted SMG935U it's becoming impossible to go through them all..... so I must be on a Verizon firmware, this won't work with any SMG935U firmwares?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] zimgir124:
If you want the beta you'll need to flash the Verizon PH1 firmware.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Bsober:
With the beta setup, i'm doing one every weekend now because it gets so bad. Doesn't lockup or freeze, but it just gets laggy and slow. I could see it freezing up within a month for sure. Gonna try the U firmware this weekend. If i don't really like that, this phone is a goner.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
I have noticed odd things happening over the last couple months. Gps sometimes will stay on for no reason. Apps will sometimes just close for no reason. It serms to be worse if I go a couple days without restarting phone. Rebooting into recovery and wiping cache also helps as well as clearing data on google play services
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Bsober:
Yup, same here. I've been turning off the phone while charging it every morning. Usually wipe cache on restarting. Sure wish Samsung or Verizon would do something with this phone. I've reinstalled this system starting over again with clean install from PH1 at least a dozen times. Doesn't run good after like a week.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] tu3218:
Man, just go back to stock guys. I don't have any of these issues at all. It's not Pixel smooth/fast but I certainly don't have any issues that you're describing.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] aaronpw0621:
So has anyone tried contacting Samsung or Verizon or both as to when the Official Nougat update will be pushed out? I am starting to feel like the Beta is not a great daily driver. And yes I know it's a beta. Lagging,stuttering, and freezing and battery life is not as good as when was first flashed. I wont go back to 6.0.1. I am now looking at the Pixel XL. At least it will see updated securiry patches unlike this phone. Meh.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kingoanklebreakn:
I don't have any of these problems with the beta. Runs great for me. My guess is by time we get official nougat, the S8 will be out. They could care less about us getting the update.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Crsdr37:
Can't anyone chime in. I tried flashing the at&t latest firmware to update to their leaked nougat as my brother who is on T-Mobile says it's buttery smooth. Anyways I was able to get data but it was flakey and when I went to make calls it would kill the radio. Does any one know the correct APN settings for our device and if I would need to unlock certain bands???
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jds3118:
I believe it's because Verizon stopped the beta program early so you didn't get all the fixes like gear VR, etc.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
It seems verizon has stopped all support
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jds3118:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Bsober:
Who do you use now?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jds3118:
T-Mobile
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] zimgir124:
I'm guessing T-Mobile. Says it was sent from a G935T using XDA legacy app

EDIT: Oops, ignore this.

I didn't see they replied
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] knox0x1:
Ok so I called verizon and samsung both about the update to nougat.. neither one of them were any help.. go figure..right? Verizon said it's up to samsung and samsung says it's up to android as to when the update is released.. sounds like a bunch of b.s. to me.. oh.. and here's the number to samsung if anyone else wants to call.. maybe the more calls they get the faster we can get the update.. worth a shot.. 1-888-987-4357

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] spiderkr:
asked at tmobile forum and one user answered that *My s7 edge is from verizon and I did flash this t-mobile firmware with no issues through Odin (my s7 edge is unlocked btw)*

here you can find the link to download [ODIN] Stock Nougat Firmware [SM-G935T] S7 Edge
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] radelon:
Technically it should, all the same hardware, the only thing would be setting up the APN, as long as TMO doesn't disable any of the LTE bands. All US Snapdragon SM-935 are internally the same. The biggest hurdle is the flashing process, odin to 935T latest MM firmware. Then odin to 935T Nougat.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] spiderkr:
no need to flash g935t firmware first. You can flash it directly to your firmware if you are using latest bootloader.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] j3ffm1ll:
so has anyone successfully done it yet?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] FoxyDrew:
I'm running T-Mobiles Nougat but can't get calls texts or data to work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] junear:
Though they have same hardware, they have different firmware and not all bands are supported in all firmware. Not to mention, Verizon is CDMA and T-Mob is GSM. Only the unlocked and verizon firmware are compatible with all bands and both GSM+CDMA.

Long story short, Verizon sim wont work in T Mobile firmware.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] FoxyDrew:
jkruse claims to have data, calls, and sending texts working on the T firmware.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] j3ffm1ll:
you should check out this thread as [MENTION=1949695]jrkruse[/MENTION] has it working

https://xdaforums.com/verizon-s7-edge/how-to/odin-stock-nougat-firmware-s7-edge-to-t3558313
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] junear:
I am following that thread as well.

LTE should work, since T firmware has 2,4,13 bands which Verizon uses. However, you may not be able to access the 2G and 3G networks since Verizon uses CDMA. You will be able to use high-speed data, but if 2G and 3G services are limited you won't be able to make calls or send SMS messages.

jrkruse said that he can make phone calls over LTE, which I am guessing is VoLTE (asked him). In that case, places where there is no LTE, you wont be able to make phone calls. If someone is able to find a workaround, that will be great.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] Averix:
Might be a stupid question, but if someone is not rooted, couldn't they just use the recovery in the phone, fastboot update, or Odin to install the original OTA update.zip?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] jrkruse:
How are you planning on rooting with a secure boot.img? Also how did you deodexed the rom. There is no oat2dex.jar that works on android 7
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] ATalkingRock:
correct me if i'm wrong but i thought people were flashing the beta via odin with over S7 variants. Is the verizon one particularly different which prevents odin from working?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] sosjadd:
Normal SuperR's kitchen smali technique. I noticed I couldnt deodex the rom until I put a fake build.prop file in the system dir.

APK's all came out fine. APK's + JAR's in this rom come out to a total of 115 items. Really damn small. Almost perfectly debloated from the factory. Just need an actual 7.0 build prop file to continue with the rest. The kernel is the last peice of the puzzle. Should be easy for the VZ guys, since they have the ability to root. Root should work fine on 7.0 in the same manner that it did on 6.0.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] LordGeek:

Decryption key?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] sosjadd:
No one has acquired the 4 files for ODIN yet. So far the only file available is the OTA update. Its not a problem, just requires a different method of flashing. Once a rom is made out of it, it can be deployed via TWRP or Chainfire. If you want a non-knox tripping method, then you will need to utilize the 4 odin files to complete the update or the OTA itself.

In theory, if you had access to the data/fota and could write the update.zip file in there, you can upgrade the phone just like everyone else and it would not trip knox at all.

Contacting "Tech Support" for Verizon.... /smh

After 10 minutes of holding for the agent to contact her "TIER 2 Supervisor" she comes up with this:

"I have confirmed that the Nougat 7.0 has been released since 11/09/2016. I would highly recommend to please speak to our TIER 2, what I will do here is submit a ticket for you."

"So once you speak to them they will have reference about your concern on Nougat. We can try asking our TIER 2 if they can do reset your device."

I then state that I've already done a Factory Reset (did it because another tech agent was being pushy, so I decided to because I already backed up my device) and it didn't do jack...

"Yes, I was thinking that you may do the factory resetting, but it was confirmed that it may not kick in."

.... few minutes later

"It has been released but not card number"

... couple minutes later again

"IT would be best to speak to our TIER2, I have ticket Issue number: xxxxxxxx for you."

Tech support isn't so support lol

I read that if you order the Pixel(XL) online from Verizon there is a way to unlock the bootloader. But you have to follow a guide I saw I swear on XDA. I am sure it requires an certain bootloader so ya dont want to turn phone on and let it update to 7.1.1 or 7.1.2 which ever it is now.

---------- Post added at 08:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:14 AM ----------

From my understanding that means they pulled the Beta to have it "Independently" Tested by a source other than their own customers. Doesn't sound very fair to me. I hope they update the dialer app. And actually give us the new UI like the Unlocked and GSM versions have.
