Just got update on Verizon, anyone else? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion

My S7 Edge just downloaded and is installing an update, just an FYI. Probably the one everyone else already got on other carriers.

I got one on AT&T just now

Just started on my phone - verizon..

Just got mine as well. Any ideas on what was updated?

Looks like all it was was security fixes. I read someone saying it fixed their SD card mounting messages.
Looks meh.

Got mine. I swear my Android version said 6.0 when I got the phone, says 6.0.1 now. Am I crazy? Or did it just update to that

It's the March security patch.
Edit: Apparently not. Even though Verizons page says "The current software update gives you the most up to date Androidâ„¢ security patch on your device." This update is still on the February patch.

Yeah me too. Verizon says on its update page "The current software update gives you the most up to date Androidâ„¢ security patch on your device." I figured this meant March.

The Kernel has last Thursday's date, could be that...now I know to take screenshots of my settings before taking an update .
If anyone on Verizon hasn't yet taken the update please post up some screenshots of your "about" information.

Verizon updates us from Android build PB1 to PB4 on the same day that AT&T and Tmo update their users from PB6 to PB8.
Verizon's current update build is two revisions behind the build the other carriers shipped with!

Just received an update (not sure if MM) for my Sprint LG Flex 2

I usually check pretty regularly for updates by going to settings, and have done so since I got my Flex 2 (only a few moths ago.) For the longest time, it never found anything, saying I was up to date. But now I just got a notification saying an update is available.

Is this the MM update?
Also, is it safe to install this update or any other update for that matter when my device is rooted?
I have a backup of my ZV9 system on my internal memory as always, just wondering if I an download the update with root.

Just 385mb, couldn't be MM update.
@jplum22 @kevin3688 what's the build no.? Any visual changes you see?
Yea LG started updating to MM from Sprint devices, for sure....
Tapatapatap Flex2
@gemtin92 any screenie to support your claim? Have you updated with this one? What's the build no.?
Don't do it while it's rooted as it could cause bricking of device. First you need to unroot.
@itskapil haven't updated yet as I need to unroot, but my current build is LMY47S.

If you like root dont upgrade to mm trust me....
Confirmed. I just updated to ls996zvB
Not really noticing much of anything. Brand new phone as of last night. (Replacement for faulty prox sensor).
What is confirmed, that it's ZVB or something? 385MB is no small update so there's got to be a ton of changes, obviously we'll get more info as time passes but, whatever people can discuss is useful info.
Guess I gave your guys the wrong build number. I am currently on ZV9 with the update pending (whatever it is)

I too got an update, the security patch is implemented in this update which is not present in zv9!!
The ones who updated can you confirm that root works on it or not?(i guess it will work)
Thats strange that international version H955 isnt getting security patches like this.

Yes but be thankful mm source code is released for your model. Not so for the sprint model. Your next update will be mm while there is no mm in sight for LGS996

My 959 version security patch level is NOV 2015..................................
the build number in that screen is LMY47S, the same of 955 15c (released in october 2015), how is possible that the "security patch" is updated to may'16?
and why the 955 software info does not show the "security patch level"?

No updates on a G930F... am I missing something?

I'm lost and I've found a lot of apparently contradictory information on the internet but how do the updates for this phone work? Last OTA I got was on December and no Nougat nor security patches since then. Checking for updates manually don't come up with any. My security patch is from 16th of November!
It's a supposedly unlock phone that I bought in Germany but is now running on a Portuguese network. Shouldn't be an issue but people have insisted it's why it's not updating. Help me out here, I'm at a loss...

Hi
well the CSC you have did not have the upgrade yet...
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G930F/DTM/.....
And Nos (optimus ) either
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G930F/OPT/
so you either have to wait...or flash it (odin) yourself from another country/operator
Hah! No mystery or conspiracy on why I'm not getting updates then! Thank you so much Max!

No problem mate...
But remember you will only get the DTM upgrade (Germany) not from Portugal...upgrades are CSC specific

That's OK, I really just want the security patches, I don't even run my phone in Portuguese or have any sort of network specific software going on. AFAIK, NOS stopped bothering about bloatware a long time ago, their phones are locked free international versions so I would be on a similar boat if I had bought it here from them.

People started recieving Android 7.0

Some users reported that to qualify for the soak test procedure you need to be in warranty
Ps: unlocking and relocking wont get my warranty back

Yeah it's the same one that had been floating around. Doesn't matter that much since it's just begging to roll out, since it's Lenovo, it'll take up to a month for it to actually be in full rollout of what they are saying is true. Doesn't matter though for me. 7.1.2 is what I'm on for custom ROMs. And they got pretty stable now so no need for stock anymore.

Android Security Patch is updated to June 1, 2017.
patch came through 6/29/2017.
update went smooth. Everything seems stable.
yes, security updates to 6/1/2017.
I googled the "System Enhancements" and there were no documented enhancements posted . . .
Can anyone identify any known enhancements?
Hi all. This update from T-Mobile is causing serious MODEM problem to my S7 Edge G935T, I can't get any access to internet over LTE. Only Wi-Fi i can used, PICTURE message is problem. I call T-Mobile and they say Samsung didn't test the update so now a lot of S7 Edge user have to go best buy Samsung store for them to downgrade the software.
---------- Post added at 02:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:55 AM ----------
I have downgrade it my self, when 7 different security patch back, even to ANDROID 6.0 the problem still persist.
Normally used the U FIRMWARE with T-Mobile CP for better speeds. Now I'm running more test, I did standard T-Mobile update from software version 4BQB1, so far I'm updating my apps only on LTE, looks good now. Will see what happens in a few hours.
Just bought my S7E used and ran this latest OTA update... it sent me into boot loops that persisted through multiple master reset, cache clearing etc. even in safe mode. Used Odin to roll back to the C1 update and all is good. Will probably try to update again this weekend.
Has anyone else spotted anything new?

Neat enhancement if you use this feature.

How to enroll for Moto x4 soak test?
So there really is hope! ? Thank you Moto/Lenovo!!!!! Thanks for sharing this friend!!!
How is the battery life especially idle drain compared to Oreo?
Haven't got it but news
https://www.gsmarena.com/android_9_...x4_is_now_rolling_out_in_india-news-34203.php
I like the fact that they are using Google Phone and Google Contacts. Now all the system apps are from the Play Store and they'll get updates even after Moto stops updating this phone.
