New update available. Its has the April security patch. Everything is working fine. Just FYI. PD3 update.

Thanks! Checked my S7E after seeing this, and installing now! Are the changes in performance noticeable? How is palm rejection now?
Edit: Phone has a black screen that reads, "Installing Applications" after it rebuilt ART. The progress bar isn't moving after a few minutes. Is this normal?

I never had any issues with that before. Performance and battery seem great so far. Android System/OS each are using less resources than before too. Very happy so far.

It stayed like this for probably ten minutes, rebooted randomly, then went back to it. I came back to it and it was booted up normally. Weird, but oh well. Palm rejection is crazy! You can set one finger on the edge and use another to swipe around the screen now

Mine downloads the update fine but then it gets stuck at 31 percent during installation then reboots and says update failed. Tried four times.

Already seeing way less Android System battery usage. Love it. Hopefully battery life goes back to launch day levels & easily hitting 6 to 7 hrs of SOT.

Still early to see if I see any difference in battery. I think they just fixed the way battery stats report android os use. Before the update, Android was #1 on the list showing 800+ mah of estimated battery usage. Now it's showing 326 mah usage. Not sure why my android os usage would change after an update on the same charge?? Maybe someone can explain that to me

Things might still be settling in, but I've noticed that my fingerprint scanning times are much quicker and accurate, and the speed/fluidity of the entire OS seems to be much, much smoother. Since the device is still in its infancy, Samsung might have gone to work patching and smoothing out things, working out better resource management, etc. which might be reflected in the battery stats?

I'm still on the original rom, any thoughts on if i should update? Thanks...

On the new update, can someone test this for me? Set Location to GPS Only for a few hours & then check Battery Usage for Android System. Is the GPS constantly on for almost as long as GPS was turned on or was GPS active for just a few seconds or minutes?

If you had hotspot enabled via changing the APN settings prior to this OTA, it will still be enabled after. The OTA leaves the option to edit the APN settings grayed out, but doesn't reset the values. I just confirmed that tethering is still working for me.

I was going to post this as well. Has anyone updated or have you postponed it? I postponed mine for now as I'm thinking of rooting my phone and I don't know if root will be possible if I update now. Also I've had Samsung Pay for a while now so I don't need that although I did hear others getting updates on their versions of Note 5's so that the wireless charger (bestBuy free one) would work on our Note 5's.

It doesn't appear to be working on my phone. Tested it just now to see and made sure to go reconfigure it in the ##DATA# settings but no dice. It will unlock tethering but any device I connect to it can't use the Internet, basically acts like the device isn't connected to the Internet.
Holy battery Batman! I didn't want to say anything earlier, but I'm convinced, battery life is **** now after update.

Not sure what this update did, but my phone has been randomly locking twice now since the update. Never had this issue before, no roots/mods applied and no new applications.
Edit: Went into stock recovery and did a cache wipe to see if that helps at all. Really prefer not to wipe this phone but may have to if it continues :-/
Did not work, it freezes constantly now and will now try wiping it....Samsung really tore it up now.
Okay really upset now...did a factory reset and it's freezing at the setup screen. I just got this phone not even two weeks ago.

Sorry to hear that. My phone only restarted once so far. Hope it doesn't continue.
So update here... Whatever this update did has tore my phone to inability to function. Constant rebooting/crashing even after factory resets in recovery/in-OS. Looks like I'm yet again going into the Sprint store to get it fixed.
Last edit i hope: So after letting it set there and reboot constantly, it has stopped and is behaving itself for the past hour so far. I do not know what it was that caused this. I've already activated Samsung Pay again and still good. Will keep updated.
If you keep having issues, download the stock tar and try to flash in Odin and then do a factory reset. If that fixes it, just don't update.

Has it been tested that we can "downgrade" to the previous version? Saying this did activate Samsung Pay and it dealing with hardware it might have incremented the firmware. Did that once on a older phone and rather wait till it's a green light to do it.
On another note, I'm noticing that my phone crashes when I'm at work. I can be anywhere else so far and be fine, just when I get to work my phone starts to act up. I know the firewall is heavy on reading all data going through it. Could it be possible that Samsung Pay is not liking the breach of certificates in it's data and causing the phone to reboot in panic?

The first thing I noticed after the update was improved fingerprint recognition. I've never had issues with my thumbs not reading, but it seemed my index fingers had to be perfectly aligned in order to unlock my phone. Now they work at off angles and much quicker.
I also promptly froze the Gear VR apps since I don't want to risk battery hits from something I won't use.
Anyone use stock messaging? I'm curious if the awful delay when trying to send a message is gone.
Just a question. With the app optimization do we still need greenery? Just wondering.

Weird thing I noticed was when when I factory reset after I took the update factory recovery was saying something about dfverify tree or something like that.
Interesting; I just had my Note5 unlocked and with my AT&T SIM in, I was able to download and install the update OTA.
Happy to see all known Stagefright vulnerabilities are now addressed.

SIM cards are used to determine OTAs for Nexus devices. But you are correct that they typically don't matter for other OEMs because each carrier gets a different model number assigned to their hardware variant.

thats upsetting
i was having this problem prior to the update, was hoping for a fix
Samsung wireless charger is supper picky, third party ones, not so much
I'm already noticing improved battery life.
Unplugged for 3.5 hours, and in the marginal LTE/H area that I am for work, I would be down 20% or more with light usage. As of now, I'm at 89%.
Is anyone else experiencing issues with Text Messages? I'm using the stock messaging app (after I started having issues with EvolveSMS). I'll get the same text messages from someone 5 to 7 times, kind of getting annoying when my S2 vibrates and get's blown up with notifications.

Hostpot bypass with latest update APD3

Ok so i got the sprint S7 Edge with the latest update and like most of you know you cant change your APN settings with the latest update. Since I had no idea about this before i took the update I lost the chance of gettinf free hostpot. Now if you changed the APN settings before the update it will stick after you take the update. I found this video of a someone turning hostpot on without the need to change any APN settings but it wasnt in the latest update. I still went ahead and gve it a shoot and it worked. This is are the steps you need to do.
1- Resrtar your device.
2- Once is back up quickly turn on hostpot.
3- If you get the error message try turn it on againg without restarting your phone.
note: I got my hostpot to stick in the second try. The first try got the error message after like 10 seconds so without restarting the phone gave it another shoot and it worked. If the secodn time doesnt work just go ahead and restart and try step 1-3 again. Good luck.

I'm on PG1, and don't have hotspots on my plan, but the feature works without any error messages. I was able to connect my s5 to my s7's hotspot and surf for quite a while. I didn't have to do any mods or change any apn settings.
Just to let everyone know, this still works with September patch PH7.
I can confirm this works on all sprint galaxy roms from s5 to s7edge
If your hotspot shuts off you have it set to time out
Go to configure hotspot and set time out to never i think its 1 hour by default. It will work till you shut it off if you set it to never time out.

sounds like your phone. ends a reset or needs to be replaced. I don't have any of those issues. my battery drops to 98% quickly if I take it off the charger in the morning after being on all night. if I charge to 100 and take it off once it tells me it's full, it doesn't drop that 2% so quick which leads me to believe the battery trickle charges once it hits full. my phone doesn't lag either and I average about 6 hours screen on time everyday.

It is not just their phone, mine is doing exactly the same thing. It will NOT charge to 100% and only gets to 97% then actually discharges while on the charger. This is coupled along with being overall a laggy experience with frequent lockups and app crashing. This is worse that the S6 and that phone was terrible as well.

What's with this WiFi battery stat?

So I've been using this phone for about 20-24 hours and everything seemed okay until I looked at the battery stats this morning. Wifi topped the list from virtually not being there at all yesterday. The worst part would be the running time, about 17 days ??? when I just took it out of the box yesterday evening. Generally the battery life is surprisingly VERY GOOD... I don't just understand why the Wi-Fi is reading WRONG.
Suggestions on how to correct this?

Wow 7 hours of screen time! Magnificient.
Install the fast adb installer and use the command
Android 7.1.2/7.1.1:
adb shell settings put global captive_portal_https_url hxxps://3w.google.cn/generate_204
·Android 7.1/7.0:
adb shell settings delete global captive_portal_server
adb shell settings put global captive_portal_detection_enabled 0

Lmao yea I think the wifi reading is terribly wrong. Fully charged the phone and it showed the normal readings for a while and then suddenly went showing only WiFi on the readings (no display, android system or anything ?). Doesn't really affect me in anyway so I'll just let it be

Mine is accurate. Not sure why some would be so wrong??? We all should have the same hardware and software. Strange
G4182 here. WIFI usage is not in the list but I used it (via router and direct between 2 phones)...

I'm having the same bug on my Z5 since Nougat update. It's incredible they never fixed it...
Don't know if the screen on time is being correctly reported but the phone very easily outlasts my OP3T

How did you get this? Always wifi on? Mobile data on?

Using the phone yesterday, there was a mix of both WiFi and mobile data. WiFi 90% of the time

Mine has been on WIfi all day and it's not a top battery consumer. Odd behavior indeed. So there is a bug?

Yeah I think the WiFi reading is a bug for some devices like mine. It shows the highest consumption (ridiculously high at that?) and then it says it's been running for DAYS! (like 300 days lol) When the device has only been used for like a day or so. But that doesn't seem to affect the phone in any way though

Here's my top users G8141. Pretty pleased so far.
I have the same problem, did anyone manage to fix this?
I had the same problem a few times...over 600 days once, LOL
But now it is gone? I have not had any wifi battery use statistics at all for several days now.
Maybe the software counters just needed some time to settle in and start counting correctly?
I am not aware of any patch or fix for this and besides I do not allow any updates to install automatically unless Sony sneaked something in??
