Unless I missed it, I haven't seen a thread on this....just received a 296MB update which is installing now.
I got it too. I did notice that they put the APN Settings back in under ##3282#....Edit. However, mine was greyed out.
Got the update here in Nolensville, TN.
What update is it? I'm on PD2 but rooted with Moar 4.1 rom
July security update.

I can confirm the APN settings are also greyed out with this update.
They've been greyed-out since the Marshmallow update.

Prior to this update you couldn't even access the APN Settings through ##3282#...Edit. You could only see it in the View option. Now, its back in Edit but you can't do anything with it as its greyed out. This is a good sign that hopefully Sprint will give us the option to edit our APN Settings again.
Pretty sure Sprint isn't going to allow you to turn on Hotspot. You'll have to do it with SQLite Editor. I've been on Samsung devices since the S3 came out. APN has never been editable. The fact it was on the Note 5 here was just an oversight.
Just for conversations sake, can anyone else confirm the size of the update? Mine said 269 not 296. Not that I'm taking it tho rooted with TWRP.
Does anyone know if this update effects my ability to flash over to another rom like MOAR 4.1 ? I am guessing it shouldnt matter if I flash to the older firmware first but I want to be sure.
Just got the update this morning. Hotspot still working.

If you are running Package Disabler Pro, the developer said you need to enable all disabled packages before updating Android.

Be aware that in order to update your version of Android, you might need all original apps in place. It is advised to always have a backup of disabled packages so you can restore them later.

Rolling it out to whom? This could take a while.
Wow, hope it's true. When has Verizon ever been first of the major US carriers to release an update?

Then, most likely, the update will fail. Updates like this have checks to make sure that you haven't modified the system.
Anyone try using the Verizon Software Upgrade Assistant instead of waiting for the OTA?

Mine is available too, but I may wait to later / When I'm home I can bring the phone back to stock, app wise.
Are you guys going to factory reset after the install? Is that necessary?
Downloaded but nervous to install. Going to wait for others to install and confirm validity for use with my Gear VR.
Wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything. AT&T dad not pushed the update that Samsung and the other carriers have, correct?
Had the phone since the 7th, nothing on my end yet. Manually checked once last week.
I have had mine since the 7th too and no update.
Samsung has created one for AT&T, but AT&T has not certified it yet.

Hey norbarb, do I need to disable substratum themes on note 8 before i get an OTA? I keep checking manually and it says system is up to date, is substratum applied themes blocking the OTA somehow? Or will it update on its own and screw up my phone? I have substratum enabled themes and still can't get the new OTA as of today... Thanks for any advise!!! Your always a GREAT help!!
Has everyone got their OTA? I still don't have it available..... still on AQH7
Does anyone know if you have an unlocked version with AT&T firmware flashed still get the automatic update from AT&T? I kept checking and it still said I have the latest version, which is AQH7.

I believe you need an AT&T SIM card to get it. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

Try setting your clock ahead like 3 or 4 days. I think it's set up so it actually only checks once every 48 hours so you can't flood the system by just hitting check now over and over again. Setting your clock ahead sometimes helps

NOTE: If you're not enrolled in beta you won't get future updates. It's easier to flash U1 firmware and enroll to ensure updates. Also, remember att isn't included so there may not be updates if enrolled. For Nougat Verizon quit after beta 2.

Not if you're not enrolled in the beta program and not if your carrier isn't participating. Just because you can load a firmware doesn't mean it's gonna get updated.

Thanks. I had seen some information indicating we MIGHT get some iteration of 7.1.x before getting 8.0. Who knows when we'll get 8.0 though. It's in beta now for the S8/Note 8, but even for those phones it's still probably going to be at least a couple of months before they get 8.0. And we definitely won't get it before they do...

One minor (major) thing they left out of the change log. People are complaining on the S7 forums because they can no longer flash to U firmware. I haven't tried it, but I've also seen people have issues with rooting now because they need an updated eng_boot.
Does anyone have this firmware for download? it's not on Samfirm yet and now im stuck in a recovery loop and trying to flash the previous firmware fails due to the new bootloader. Google shows nothing.

Here is the Sprint firmware, for use with Odin, from the newest release. I can't take credit for finding it -- I requested it in another thread and someone posted it for me. I have now put it on my GD (the link below), just in case the original one goes away.

I have the same problem as the OP, AT&T told me that having the phone carrier unlocked did not make a difference. They also said I needed a warranty replacement, I called bull, so I reached out to Samsung, they told me to go to Best Buy to get them to push the update. I dont have the time to sit there for hours. So I come to you guys.
If what you say is true then I just need to be a bit more patient. Or should I just go to Best Buy and let them fiddle with my phone?
