i also bought my first s7 from ff...k emag store and was full of bugs after one bought the france version no problems..........my idea is the countries like Romania, Bulgaria, Ukraine, Chezc, Poland, are 3rd countries where phones are not tested like they should

My phone is still from emag. Was on XEU but flashed BTU software the day it was released. No problems on mine since than. Slow motion works fine on mine.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] teh_1:
I got my S7 from emag too. My only problem with it was the AFR csc code (Kenia) , which apparently is among the last to get updates. I fixed that by flashing the ROM release of Nougat. Everything seems fine so far. I'll give slow motion video a test tomorrow and see how it goes.

Is any thread here to compare if there is any real benefict in using FHD or WQHD resolution? I mean, improvement in battery life, especially.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] takerhbk:
Based on review and my experience, no real effect on battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Xophile:
Can confirm that NEE updating now in Sweden for unlocked S7 Edge
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] ciprigeorgiu:
majority of users say that there is a very small difference in battery life between FHD and QHD. It makes sense because the number of lit pixels is the same (all the pixels light up in each of the two resolutions) but FHD helps with the graphics card and with the processor too. So the small difference in battery comes from saving a little in performance as a fewer amount of different pixels is used. Hope you can understand my opinion.

No lag. Maybe let the os settle a bit. See if it persists after 3-4 days.

Try clearing cache from recovery and also for the keyboard app.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] omer7:
I made a new thread for this issue, but so far didn't get more than 1 reply. Since people are active here, so thought to ask my question here too.

My question is do apps in recent menu auto close themselves after some time in nougat? Like before going to sleep i had more than 20 apps in recent menu and when i woke up, i only had 5 apps there.

Is it some feature in nougat or i m missing on some setting.

I factory reset my phone after updating to nougat.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] SergioA:
Yes I didn't notice but I can confirm. Same story here...

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] omer7:
Thank u for the response. I did some search on this topic also, found few results, but what i have understood so far that this is a feature in nougat. Unused apps are auto closed from recent apps menu and only 5 to 6 apps are left.

It is a feature. No more endless list of apps.

I have also the xef version and everyting it's ok 331 hours up time.....do you have auto-restart on ??? if not try to perform this action :

1. device maintenance - storage- storage settings ( from the 3 points in the upper screen ) -cache delete

2. wipe cache android device -

Wipe cache partition

Turn off the device.

Press and hold the Volume Up key and the Home key, then press and hold the Power key.

When the device logo screen displays, release only the Power key.

When the Android logo displays, release all keys ('Installing system update' will show for about 30 - 60 seconds before showing the Android system recovery menu options).

Press the Volume down key several times key to highlight 'wipe cache partition'.

Press the Power key to select.

Press the Volume down key to highlight 'yes' an press the Power key to select.

When the wipe cache partition is complete, 'Reboot system now' is highlighted.

Press the Power key to restart the device.

this should solve your problem

Hello I have a Galaxy S7 and since the update to Android Nougat 7.0, my phone restarts randomly, it can stay an entire week without restart and it can also restart 2 days in a row. It's totally random. I have reset to the factory settings and I have reinstalled only the most important applications (facebook messenger, viber, yahoo mail) but unfortunately about ten days after reset, the problem has reappeared. What could be the cause of this problem? For info, the firmware version installed on my phone is: G930FXXU1DQBO. Also, I saw on SamMobile that the countries that received the update later, had a new version. Could the problem come from that? Is this a bug in the firmware installed on my Galaxy S7. Thank you in advance for your help.

When do they ever release a changelog other than for major OS upgrades?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] zoljac:
That small update has something that bothers me since yesterday.

Both Camera app and Touchwiz app are downgraded since last January patch update.

Camera was 6.5.56 and now is 6.5.47 and I am unable to install new one like normal app like I could before latest update

Touchwiz was 5.8.12 and now is 5.7.92 and same goes here for normal install of new S8 TW.

Anyone else noticing something similar like this!!!

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Djuganight:
I don't see any differences at all...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] *Detection*:
Only updated lastnight, so will take a few shots today (Nice and sunny today) and compare to the previous version

EDIT - I feel as though Auto Focus is a bit dodgy with this camera app version, doesn't seem to want to focus on what you tell it, or what you point the camera at

Taken a few snaps and it seems to try and focus on things off to the side rather than the centre subject, or in portrait mode it tries to focus to things above the centre point
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] zoljac:
I played last few days with camera options and snaps I made actually look nice with this latest BTU firmware update. Photos are actually same quality as before although the Camera app version is lower. Quality probably depends only on cam firmware version while apps are not making much difference.

That downgrade of app version could actually be a reason Samsung has announced on their security update page where they wrote for February patch that camera had some memory leak problem that is going to be fixed with February patch that we got with latest BTU 7.0 update.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] *Detection*:
Yea I agree about quality likely only changing with camera firmware updates, although if you use a different camera app than stock samsung, you can notice the drop in quality IMO

Sounds very possible reason they would downgrade the camera app version, I haven't noticed any memory leak problems but will keep an eye on it
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] zoljac:
This is from their page:

SVE-2016-6989: Memory Leak in Camera via ion

Severity: Medium

Affected versions: M(6.0), N(7.x) devices with Exynos7420 or Exynox8890 chipset

Reported on: August 25, 2016

Disclosure status: Privately disclosed.

A carved out heap memory in camera was not properly initialized to zero until the next memory allocation resulting in possible memory leak.

The fix prevents leakage of memory by adding implementation of memory initialization of carved out heap memory, when memory is freed.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Djuganight:
so what is your camera app version and how do we notice the memory leak?

I would've used the beta myself too if I'd known about it but I only got the phone at Christmas and knew nothing. They always had the choice to roll back to MM if it was unstable anyway. Just since it's a release and not a beta I mean, Samsung should be rolling it out to everyone else too imo.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussion] artnada:
Maybe they are just being cautious? Samsung had a bad year last year, and the last thing they need is for another PR disaster. A staged roll out is sensible.
