No differences in LTE speeds for me.
Here's another PSA: Sprint service in Austin, Texas (and surrounding areas) sucks!
I cant find anything new on my device at all.. There could be other things that could auto-install after the update via sprint ID app. ... I turned that of (with package disabler) as it kept installing bloatware immediately after I would uninstall it. That issue alone is worth the price of Package Disabler... or even installing the U ROM.
Anyone know how to tell if the bootloader has been updated?

I was hoping for some more functional AOD updates like the Note 7 has. At least we get the September security update.

So someone who's installed it in About Device what's the Android security patch level?

No AOD features added, battery life still sucks on this phone. I have a feeling with the Note 7 recall its going to be awhile before we get any of those features.

Yeah probably. To be honest I'm surprised we even got the September security update.
If I don't use the thing the battery life is pretty great, I can go almost 2 days on a weekend when I'm not using it much. But man, stream radio or music, it just eats it, which is weird because I'll eat more battery in an hour of streaming radio with the screen off than I will watching a show or movie off my SD card for 30 minutes.

That's why I'm glad I have a nexus 6p to play with and enjoy android N while my S7E sits in my nightstand lol. I regret buying the S7E man..

I do regret getting the S7E as well. I feel conned by all the hype and early reviews of this phone. I must say that after this update has settled in, battery life is better finally on this release. Too little to late. The phone is still laggy and struggles to close open apps and will still lock up for a few seconds as well. I am confident that Samsung's horid touchwiz is to blame as it happers the phone.

I think the lag is more from the Sprint bloat than the Samsung bloat b/c on the 935U ROM, I practically don't have any lag. My GS7E is faster than my Nexus 5X on the latest 7.0 Nougat.

I could totally see the sprint bloat causing that. This will be my last carrier phone. Not sure what's next yet but I'm eyeing the inevitable price drop on an unlocked HTC 10 during the holiday shopping season at the moment.

I've disabled the bloat, and have no performance issues, or significant lag, on my Edge. No problem closing open apps. You may want to look at what apps you have running in the background.
As far as new features, there's now an option to automatically set a default app or be prompted, and if you're prompted you can choose Always or Just Once.

T-Mobile has confirmed Marshmallow for Note 5

Take this with a grain of salt but the Software Updates page at T-Mobile has been updated and the Note 5 is on there. Now we all knew that it would be updated to Marshmallow but maybe this is a sign that we will see it sooner than later.

When this is released by T-Mobile will i need to un-root to get the OTA update? If so, will there be a root in the works for Android M? I am rooted on 5.1.1 BOH6 with Arter97 Kernel, Xposed and the latest TWRP. Just curious thanks for all the hard work devs.
My reason for asking is probably the same as anyone else. I want the newest OS but I want to keep the tweaks made possible through root such as, modifying the build.prop file to fix the RAM leak, better battery life through titanium back up by freezing apps and adding some features by editing the /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db in SQLite Editor
Great, get ready for all the complaining about the update not being fast enough to arrive. Only to be followed up with complaints about how the update made the phone slow and the battery drain.

Yes, if you want to get OTA updates the phone cannot be rooted.
Good luck,
Have a great evening!
You won't have to unroot to update. Not with smart switch on your computer, however it will unroot your phone, and generally when android updates a whole system, root is lost till someone figures it out, when kit Kat first came out root took forever

Funny when I read that I was like wow no matter what forum I am a part of these sad to say but real bad (tried to keep it clean) questions get asked. Come on people do your research before you root. Also how do you expect people to see into the future and answer what will happen down the line

Wow, that was quick. Tmobile has been pushing updates out pretty fast over the past year, so maybe we'll see it this month.
Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk
Edit: I think that's wrong. If you click testing phase it brings the pink line over to testing, if you click completed it brings it all the way over. If you click note 5 under the updates, it shows that it's still under manufacturing development
still shows manufacturer development for me.... hopefully changes.. .the marshmallow leak has been pretty stable, but it occasionally reboots while on calls still.

International versions updated by Samsung haven't even gotten it, and historically they get it a month or more before the carriers in the US release theirs.

Does the new Samsung Pay addition allow us to use the watch only for purchasing things, or do we need a connected Samsung device???
Thanks.
EDIT: I got the update but there's no sign of samsung pay that I can find on my watch.... S-Voice seems much better though!
Hope it is smartphone-free. Here in Korea I can pay with one of my debit cards and I dont need the phone at all. Weird that I do not have that update yet my 3G still in R730SKSU1AOKE...

That being said...I am checking and I dont see it or any articles online...
Any thoughts?
I agree s-voice seems to have better response. also no samsung pay on the watch, even though it is listed in the "whats new-added section".
Have noticed much difference (a little too early to evaluate battery life). But there is a little yellow icon at the 9 o'clock position if you have notifications. Anyone find a changelog?

This is what the big fuss was about.

MM, oh how we've all longed for you. Really, I've had it out with almost the whole XDA community over you, but without further ado we finally have a taste of MM baked on our beloved T-Mobile Note 5.

I can say that I can see, feel, and touch, why it took T-Mobile so long to bake MM on our Notes. Let's start out by saying...WOW!!! The smoothness is amazingly improved, as well as the speed of things throughout the entire OS.
The fingerprint scanner has been vastly improved, not even a millisecond and I am in with a simple touch of my finger.
Transitions are lovely! Smooth scrolling and navigating were pleasantly a thrill to have seen improved.
Clean, sleek, and refreshing overall look of things.
The notification bar has been refreshed with a new look and feel, with welcoming new animations and color. I took a slight peek at leaked images of MM's rabid beta builds and was slow to judge, but happily stayed faithful until the OTA was released, and BOY! Was I right because I didn't like what I saw. But with an overall hands on, I've warmed up to the slightly new notification center.
Battery life.
Battery life has been dramatically improved. I haven't done any technical testing, but could tell in a day, and a half, the magic of MM is real.
Features.
I've bumped into many minor, but strongly welcomed changes throughout MM, and would love to share one that I thought was worth telling.
After taking a screenshot, I notice instructions pop up, and I was pleased to see a new addiction to the screenshot feature...
Now! This is how I've expected the Note 5 to come out of the box, and had high hope that MM would bring the improvements. Boy, was I right! The MM update did just that.
I'm sure you have a story or have found some new features that you would like to share. Feel free to add helpful tips and new findings here. Thanks for reading and enjoy your long awaited sweetness of MM.

touchwhiz slowness is still a big issue for me
i love my note 5 and i bought a nexus 6p i was blown away. i've always been into clean android so when i learned cm was almost impossible that's when i realized the phone wasn't for me. hopefully the note 6 isn't locked down like the s7.
You know, I like everything about Marshmallow except the finger print sensor seems to fail more often, probably as a result of the speed boost it got. That and having to have a password when I boot up my phone (passwords are nowhere near as secure as fingerprints so I was faced with the decision to either use my extremely long backup password I had with Lollipop or reduce the complexity and I opted for the latter) are the only real issues I have with it.
Did you know you can long press the Marshmallow after triple tapping android version in about device and play a little game?

Isn't it a little early to judge battery life? And post the screen on time.

Was that from a full charge? I hope it doesn't look like that in a few days after everything settles.

There is no way that you updated today and are getting accurate battery stats same day. Give it another day, it will be different.
I'll report my battery life tomorrow. I calibrated mine this morning, updated at 62% and am at 2% now so once I kill it and recharge it fully I'll test tomorrow and report back.

Day one here (obviously) and it doesn't seem too bad to me. Again who knows in one day.

The question I have is, why is wi-fi calling constantly getting patched\an issue? Why does Sprint need a seemingly separate app when my last carrier (Verizon) integrated it into the phone and it worked seamlessly (I barely knew when it was in use other than perfect call quality). I've gotten crackling with wi-fi calling, and even sometimes if I hang up quick after calling on wi-fi, notification sounds won't work till I reboot. Admittedly, the newest update DOES seem better, but still not perfect.
The other portion, HD calling. Why are we restricted to only other Sprint devices and why is it so hard for Sprint to have it work vs. other carriers where it works across all carriers with a supporting phone?

Sprint testing Nougat update?

Looks like Sprint will be releasing the Nougat update first of all in US. In fact, they have released the Marshmallow before everybody else too (maybe before global variant too, not sure).
Here's why this looks genuine:
- No CM14/AOSP 7.0 ROM availabel for G930P, so it must be official firmware in use here.
- RAM is down, and so are the benchmark scores, so this is a test build, not a fake 6.0 one.
What do you guys think?

I have the S7 Edge now and I miss these too. Still like the phone though.
My S7 edge gets delivered tomorrow. Going to miss my Note 7, but I have always liked my wife's S7 edge.

According to my friend who works at Sprint he got a memo from Samsung about samsung beta program for the S7 and S7 edge rolling out today in phases around 5pm. We see what happens.
Edit: You must be registered and only limited spaces for enrollment.
