So I've got a link I'd like to share but I've never posted on here before so I need to post approximately 10 posts before I am able to post outside links. So I'm gonna go post on a couple things and once I'm able to I shall share the link with you guys.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] James12641:
Could you tell us what the link is? Or maybe how to find it ourselves?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] cadcamaro:
That beta was unbearable. Constantly had issues with text messages on it for some reason. They would keep failing to send and I would miss messages from people as well. Very annoying.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] auroraadawnn:
I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to tell you guys what the link is without just putting the link for some reason. However, at this moment in time I now don't have to worry about that because I am able to just share the link. :)

I came across this site. I downloaded the file I needed, copied that file into a fota file that I had on my phone's SD card from when I flashed the Nougat Beta updates onto my phone, and then booted my phone into Recovery Mode and updated to Nougat from there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] CVertigo1:
Did you do a factory reset afterwards? That makes all the difference. The only time I had issues with messages was caused by my VPN, and that issue exists on Marshmallow as well.

If someone knew what you were trying to link, they would have pointed you to the Nougat Beta thread in this forum lol.

i wouldn't doubt that they go directly to 7.1 like they have in the past, skipped .0 and went to .1.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] MassScrew:
I have been running the beta with the zero issues but I did a factory reset.

I am hoping for a official version soon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] auroraadawnn:
It's not the beta though?

Looking at your screenshots, you are on the beta. Your screen shot shows the security patch from October 2016. The true nougat rom will be february or march security.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] CVertigo1:
You are on the beta lol.

It is me.

I am updating now....^^:D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] iBolski:
I'll be interested to know if the Samsung Gear VR works with the official update. From what I read, the beta didn't work with the Gear VR. Just curious.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] CVertigo1:
I'm downloading the update now. I'll test the VR as soon as I'm done setting the phone up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] iBolski:
Just checked for the update again and now I have it. I told it to not to download for now. I'm going to wait and see how it works for others before I accept it. But, it IS available. Probably not to everyone yet. I think the send them out in batches. Not sure if it's by IMEI number or what, but you should be getting sooner or later if you don't see it yet.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] Drunkula:
I see it on mine. Downloading now. I don't mind that the Gear VR

may

not work at this time. I rarely use it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] railfan-eric:
Just got mine updated!!!! I'm excited. But am overwhelmed by the phone contact screen being different. I don't like how they changed the Favorites and the contact pictures are little circles. it sucks. nowhere on the phone can i see them big enough to really enjoy. I don't suppose there's any way to change it? I haven't looked the rest the phone over yet. I'm slow at adjusting to big changes at my old 38 year old age. when i was younger I could adapt to new software and stuff much easier. what are the pros and cons you guys have on Nougat?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] NilsP:
Just finished update and love it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] Sir_Eagle:
Got it. Looks good. Happy so far.

Can anyone try foxfi on this? I have the old unlimited plan and use foxfi at work for hotspot... 10 gb limit on new unlimited plan isn't enough
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] iBolski:
Updated after verifying Gear VR still worked. So far, loving it! Very smooth and battery life is about the same, maybe a bit better, but definitely not worse.

Also, I was not a beta user so I was coming from pure stock MM, never rooted (and probably never will). Since my LG G3, I have never had a reason to root.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] scadilla:
Has anyone on the beta been able to upgrade to this? If so did you have to wipe or were you able to just upgrade from the beta to the official?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] MassScrew:
I just upgraded from the beta with zero issues. I didn't wipe just took the ota.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] j0hnh0lmes:
Yes - updating from beta is doable.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] TelloMan:
I was able to update no problem, just like a normal update. I was on Beta too. Good luck and it works great!

Just updated stock VZ S7 to Nougat

I updated to Nougat last night and so far really like it. I haven't rooted my device bc I don't trust myself to not brick it and my go to technical guy has been too busy tricking out his OnePlus 3.

I run Nova Launcher with KGWT widgets and use a grey (dark wood) samsung theme. The only thing I can't figure out is the new device management feature. I have bits of it available but can't seem to find the actual main menu like I've seen screen shotted and demo'ed. I'm starting to think my theme is getting in the way. Anyone know if that could be true?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] iBolski:
I responded but after reading, I realised I was talking about something different. My bad.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] j0hnh0lmes:
It was removed from the official release.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] cigar3tte:
I read that you just need to wipe the cache partition. I wiped the whole phone before reading that, so I don't know if it would've worked for me.

I was on beta and the OTA kept saying "Download unsuccessful" with error 400.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] scadilla:
I'm getting the same message, were you able to download? Or did you do something else to get the official release installed? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] cigar3tte:
Have you tried wiping the cache partition first? I was able to download and update after doing a factory restore, but I didn't try wiping the cache partition first.

I'm on the official Nougat now. I went Nougat beta (with downloaded zip, not in beta program) -> factory restore -> Nougat official (OTA).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] scadilla:
Yes, after wiping the cache I was able to download and install. Upgrade went very smooth. Thanks for the help.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] COMTB:
Digging the upgrade so far. My phone is way faster (no factory reset) and seems much more responsive. No Change in battery but I run it in high performance mode all the time so I didn't expect much change.

Only time will tell but I'm happy we finally got it!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] NilsP:
Speed is excellent, battery is good, and if I had any disappointments it would be that themes haven't caught up with it yet and back to a small caller ID picture.

VERIZON HAS RELEASED NOUGAT TO S7 and S7 EDGE

I have had Nougat for about 4 days now from Verizon. HUGE mistake! Many issues, but biggest is the Home Screens have lost their icons. If I go to the Icon list and try to move an app, like we did before, nothing happens. Be wary before you make the switch. I would wait until more kinks are worked out of it. I wish I could go back to the last version or a while.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] nrage23:
I have no issues with the 7.0 update. All works well and the S7 has much better battery life for me with 7.0
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] j0hnh0lmes:
Factory reset. Problem is in userspace.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] mjmjhkgh:
I did always factory reset when system update.

This is BEST way to real update.(I think.) or use ODIN.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] railfan-eric:
my camera is slow now with Nougat. do i need to reset the phone?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] iBolski:
If you're having issues with the Nougat update that you can't get answers to, Samsung has a dedicated thread for this in their forums. You can get to it here:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] railfan-eric:
I just found another thing to complain about. Where is the Quick Connect in the drop down menu for connecting to speakers etc? I had to reconnect the bluetooth speaker the hard way. and at that when i tried to scroll the drop down menu it kept expanding the individual notifications before scrolling all the way down to access the Bluetooth settings. Very annoying. ugh!!! I never hated an update so much before on a phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] Sir_Eagle:
Isn't it the little flower looking icon in the dropdown notification menu
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] railfan-eric:
Isn't that what it was before the update? There's nothing there now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] Sir_Eagle:
I still got it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] railfan-eric:
Dang I don't have that. It's your phone a Verizon phone?

---------- Post added at 09:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:16 AM ----------

Here's mine.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] railfan-eric:
So I checked when I turned they speaker on and now it has the bar. But if the speaker isn't paired I don't have the quick option. At least I didn't the other day.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] Sir_Eagle:
Must be that something has to be paired with it. My watch is always paired and sometimes my earpiece, so it always shows for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] iBolski:
Mine's there whether BlueTooth is on or off. It depends on where it shows up in the settings grid. To see items in the quick settings, you must ensure the icon setting is placed in the top row of the full settings view.

To get to the full settings view and edit, do the following:

Swipe down again when in quick view mode

Check to see where the BlueTooth icon is. It's probably NOT in the top row.

When in full view mode, click the Overflow button in the top-right corner (the three vertical dots) and select "Edit"

Find the BlueTooth icon and drag it to the top row of the view.

I've attached a screenshot of the setting where I moved it in the edit view as well as a screenshot of my quick view settings showing the disabled BlueTooth icon is present in quick settings view.

Only the icons in the top row will show up in the quick settings and that also depends on what grid-size you chose. Everything else after that will only be displayed when you swipe down a second time from the quick settings.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] railfan-eric:
The icon isnt' what we're talking about. See my screenshots. To quickly connect if it's not paired up i used to have the bar to click on to select what device to connect to. now the bar only shows the connection if it's connected. which defeats the purpose of needing it to connect. So i have to bring up the whole dang bluetooth panel to do it.

i found a screenshot online. here's the old style: http://cdn1.expertreviews.co.uk/sites/expertreviews/files/2016/03/samsung_galaxy_s7_quick_connect_screenshots.png?itok=prZL0hPf

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers] PGHammer:
However (at least as far back as April) there ARE non-beta N builds for VZW (and their MVNOs as well) from both major sources (SamMobile and updato.com) - I've even seen G930V firmware for Tracfone (January and April for G930V) - I'm actually debating grabbing that one because I have a GNex that runs on Tracfone, and I may well replace it with the S7 I was recently gifted once I purchase a nano-SIM-based CDMA/LTE kit for it. (The GNex uses a microSIM; unfortunately, the S7 requires a nano-SIM. thus the number is portable, but the SIM is not.)

[XDA Assist] Ricardo Ger:
Hi, my phone, which is a Samsung Grand Prime SM-G530M, has almost 2 years old.

Over a period of one and a half years the phone detected the 4G / LTE signal without any problem.

In the last December the operating system was upgraded, security update, but did not change the version of android.

From that moment, always detects the signal E, and sometimes the signal H / H +. But the 4G signal never again :(.

The phone never fell on the floor, never fell into the water, the SIM chip works on 4G / LTE on other phones.

After a month with this problem, I root the phone to have more options for repair.

Please can anyone help me with this problem?

thank you very much to all.

Rick.

What is difference between (let`s say my country Bosnia and Herzegovina firmware and English firmware) is it just language difference ? or any other apps' If it is How can I see what apk come with that firmware? TY
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] Amarius1:
No difference. As long as it is for the same model number you have no issue flashing any firmware for other countries.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] Rnder:
So if i download english one nothing is gonna change ?
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] Amarius1:
Yes. As long as itnisnthe same model as yours. For example I have downgraded to 5.1.1 using a firmware for germany even tho I live in Romania
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] Rnder:
OH, ok! Ty
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] Amarius1:
No problem! Just make sure it is for your model and that before flashing you have both OEM unlock and usb debugging open in dev settings, if you are in stock.

Or you could use SmartSwitch to automaticaly download and reinstall your phone's software!
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] Rnder:
You mean it downgrades to lollipop automaticaly ?
[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] Amarius1:
No. I wanted to downgrade to lollipop so I downloaded the file to foash trough odin. It just needed to be for my FN model, for example, even tho it came from germany. SmarSwitch gives you the latest version automaticslly for your device.

I'm wondering if anybody else is having similar problems.

Upgraded to the T-Mobile Nougat 7.0 OTA update. After that, I'm having constant "GPS signal not found" errors in Pokemon Go and my weather widget (1Weather) is having problems finding my location to update. Restarts don't do anything and this problem only happens periodically. Sometimes the apps work! They worked perfectly fine in Marshmallow.

Other GPS apps like Google Maps and GPS Status are working fine; pinpoints my location to within 20 feet. I've tried clearing and re-downloading AGPS data, un/re-installing the malfunctioning apps, clearing cache, data, revoking all permissions to re-enable them. None of that works.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Geeks Empire:
go to Setting > Apps > select app you want > Permissions > disable GPS Permission

and reopen the app and check if it crashes or asking for permission again.

try this solution with restart and let me know if problem remains

Good Luck
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Gbcue:
You must have missed my OP:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Geeks Empire:
so what happened when you disabled the gps permission and reopen the app?

it crashes or what?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Gbcue:
You must have missed my OP, let me refresh your memory.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Geeks Empire:
Haha

the answer to my question should be No Error or crashes!

I read those that you have problem!

check this

you Disabled GPS permission! >> relaunched the app >> what happened?

- nothing

- crashes

- ask for gps permission

this is not answer to my question.

Read carefully! ;)

Good Luck

:good:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Gbcue:
It asks for permission. I grant it. I get, "GPS signal not found".
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Gbcue:
Update: Sometimes a toast popup comes up that says Google Play Services has stopped responding (crashed). When this crashes, it seems to fix the GPS issues. So I guess now I just have to wait for a proper update for Nougat and the S7... :(
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] caviyacht:
I have this same issue (same setup as well). I haven't opened my weather app yet (rather just look at the sky :) ), but I do have constant issues with Pokemon GO. It will just sit there endlessly trying to get the GPS signal, but it doesn't have issues if I am moving.

I have found multiple reddit threads and Samsung support threads on the GPS issue with no luck.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] kevfixit:
I have been reading up on all of them today, as I normally have zero issues while sitting at my desk. I have toggled many options including optimize battery usage, location itself, clear cache, downloading GPS status and toolbox, and rebooting.

Right now the changes I have made from default are turn off the new app power saving monitoring (settings>battery>3 dots>advanced settings>disable app power monitor), turned of wifi scanning and bluetooth scanning.

The root of my problem was attempting to use the pokemon go plus. It allows the app to use the location of the device in the background while the screen is off and the app is not in the foreground. It was not lighting up every 5 minutes for the pokestop like it normally does. Going to maps, I discovered my location was way off. After opening the app, it would correct itself after a few seconds, but other times it would not.

This is also affecting smart lock (unlock) which allows you to choose locations where your phone does not require a password or fingerprint to unlock. It had always been flaky, but lately actually worked fairly well.

GPS issues is far from the only issue. I see monthly updates coming to us for a while (hopefully carriers will be right behind)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] kevfixit:
turning off battery optimization for locationservices seems to have made a difference. Smart lock is now working consistently and I am no longer drifting in my app. I also rebooted right before making this change, so that could have an effect too. I am going to leave it like this for a couple days to see if it helps. This makes sense, as the doze feature in nougat got reworked.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Parthros:
If you go to the Location settings, you'll notice that the "Locating Method" will randomly change between High Performance, Battery Saving, and Device Only. Pokemon Go is not compatible with Battery Saving, so if you get that error message when you know your GPS is enabled, go to Location settings and switch the Locating Method to either High Performance or Device Only. (Quickest way to do that is to press & hold on the GPS icon in the notification shade, which'll take you directly to the setting you need to toggle.)

The problem I'm having is getting that setting to stick. It seems to randomly change its Locating Method throughout the day, and I can't figure out how to force a static setting.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers] Gbcue:
Here's what I've figured out, works 100% of the time:

1. Go to your device administrators and disable Android Device Manager (ADM).

2. Force Close Google Play Services.

3. Re-enable ADM.

4. GPS works now.
