With an another app no problems.

Yea, same here. I have the Tmobile S7 Edge.
It pulls up any web page for like 4 seconds, then shows the Aw, Snap error page and it doesnt matter how many times you press RELOAD the page just wont work. It even does it when accessing: google.com

I realize this won't help solve your problem, but at least I can give more info: Chrome works fine on my S7 on AT&T (carrier device) both on wifi and network data.

I had the same issues when I was using the dev version of Chrome. Switched to regular release and now it's fine.

S6 picking up random locations on weather and maps

Since going to 5.1.1 my phone keeps on randomly changing location on Google maps and the weather
Yesterday it thought I was in Kassel Germany and today it's South London.
Done a few resets, flashed stock firmware, but nothing works.
Based in UK and my phone is unbranded on EE.
Any ideas?

Bizarely I noticed on my Google location history it thought I was 30 miles away at one point in the morning.
Location was set to use GPS/WiFi/cell.
Changed to just WiFi/cell to see what happens

Today my phone is in Norwood but I am in Northampton... only work around is to enable always scanning of wifi which fixes it.
I'm having similar issues, mine keeps defaulting to south of france
Try increasing accuracy of GPS by going to Settings-Privacy and Safety-Location-Locating Method and select GPS, wi-fi and mobile networks.
Carefull it gets worse, Russian hacking trojan / virus in the Official stock 5.1.1 OTA update, wait before you reset or do anything or Samsung will brick your phone for you on stock or modded rom's.
I have never heard of this Trojan. And I flashed an stock Ota.
Can you please elaborate?

Mobile Data not possible after OTA Update

Hello,
since an update to 5.1.1 my Z3 i'm not able to use mobile Internet anymore. Sometimes after restart it works for a while sometimes using WCDMA instead of LTE works. But these workarounds allways work for a small periode.
It seems to be that other in Germany have the same problem, Sonysupport tells me to do a Faktoryreset.
Has anybody noticed the same bug is there a solution?

I woul recomend to reflash the same version using Androxyde Flashtool without wiping data and system. Seems like modem/baseband upgrade problem.

I am not sure if T-Mobile in USA is customer reflashable... Otherwise I would use flashtool/xperifirm to download latest 5.1.1 and flash it clean.
So I'm not the only one. What a strange bug. I'm on ATT in the US using the D6603 on straight talk. Just like you guys, HSPA works fine but LTE does not work aside from certain apps... very strange

It is known that US providers do a nasty things to firmware in order to "protect" subsidized phones, however don`t know if it is also case of ATT and T-Mobile. However, I would highly recommend you make a clean install of 5.1.1 (you can download latest .570 / .580 firmware with XperiFirm) if you can.
The problem has fixed itself. I'm not sure what happened, but my LTE signal is now working fine.

May that be a problem on provider's side..

Samsung rolls out maintenance update for the Galaxy S7 edge in the UK today, which brings “shape correction for skewed photos” and stability improvements including better palm touch rejection.
What network you on?
I am on EE, I have got this update notification, I manually downloaded the update and flashed via flash fire (to avoid wiping the device)
But I still keep getting the update notification.
Making me think the update I Downloaded was not the last version.

Do you have a different number to this.

Got mine through Carphone Warehouse, bought outright as i'd previously been with EE and got fed up with their lies about upgrading my phone... so after a week of dealing with them, i went 'sod it' and cancelled my EE contract, went out to Carphone Warehouse and bought the phone there.
Currently on a BT contract, 20gb data, unlimited text, unlimited calls, £20 a month for 24 months... perfect for me
Rooted and using TEKXnesis HYBRID Rom, and absolutely loving it
I already got this update Ratley in the week lady week via manual flashfire[emoji14]

So I updated the ROM to the latest version.
Still have the identify unsaved numbers!!!! Yay!!
I was able to test the touch responsive on the new update.
The way I tested, was hold the phone in your left hand normally.
And try and tap a icon in the top right corner.
The palm of my hand would touch the bottom left icon activating it.
Since the update, this touch appears to be ignored now. So a good update with a little less irritation.

Yes I do. I downloaded it from SamMobile. The Samsung Pay app starts up with a little video introduction but it doesn't let you register any cards so it's not active server side yet. It's clear that it will be any day now though.

oh alright.
I got Samsung Pay semi-working on my G930F without flashing any rom. I couldn't access with fingerprint but with a PIN. Same as you, I can't add any cards, it says "failed to connect to server" right after I press the "next" button (the arrow). So I guess it's not even sending a ping to the server.
As a side note: the app in google play still appears not compatible and it doens't detect I have it installed. It's like if I have a whole different version.
UPDATE:
I "tapped" into SP's communication when sending the info of the card that I want to add and this is what it shows in both Samsung Pay and it's framework

It's a Samsung issue. I have the same problem on my S7E but Paypal works well with the fingerprint feature on my LG G5.
This is sillly. Samsung should release several firmwares for G930F and other variants according to carriers. For example a firmware with wifi calling and volte for tmobile US and Samsung Pay.
I think no matter if we have the app running or not. Their servers must be checking a combination of PDA and CSC and maybe more stuff and once the server realizes our phone doesn't match the criteria, it prevents the card registration. I don't know....
Android has always been about mods. We need leas root if they provide a wide enough customization and freedom for their (samsung) devices

So did I.
About Samsung Pay, I can't believe it's STILL not out over here. I bought the S6 when it came out last year all excited about being able to use Samsung Pay. One year later(and one phone model later!) still nothing!
Any of you guys got WiFi calling up and running?

Following the recent update I've got WiFi calling working on both my S7 Edge and S7. Both bought from Vodafone.

Hi how do I check if knox is tripped
Hi.
How have you got this to work? I am in Vodafone and received the software update 2 days ago yet I still do not have the WiFi calling option. I am looking in settings, under applications and then phone. Should appear underneath 'Vibrate'.
Mine updated to PD1. Is there anything you did to enable it?
Thanks

Spotify not working since S8+

All anyone having any issues or better still can confirm they still have Spotify working on their S3, it was fine with my S3 and S7 Edge, but noticed the other day when i click the app or widget the screen goes blank an if i use the widget says phone BT disconnected (its connected as my S3 is).
I have an S8+ and have the exact same problem.
Used to work fine with my S6 Edge
Sent from my SM-G955F using Tapatalk
I think it's because of the latest update of the gear app.
It used to work on my galaxy s6 edge+ but after the last update it keeps saying that Bluetooth isn't connected
I uninstalled just the gear app and then reinstalled fresh problem solved.
Finding this on a steady stream of apps assume the update over rights and leave junk behind causing issues ...

FindMyMobile

Is your FindMyMobile working? My unlocked phone isn't working. There's a thread on androidcentral that seems to think it's related to a bug in the update Samsung pushed out recently trying to enable off-line location.

+1 Working Great here on Exynos Version.
On a whim I cleared cache for the "Find Your Mobile" app on my phone and magically it started working within about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Go figure...
