[Android Nougat beta] BUGS AND FIXES - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion

I thought it should be good to have a thread like this.
So, this is my experience so far.
-Facebook crashes
-Samsung music crashes
-display layout with hd resolution (battery saving on) playing asphalt 8 (bottom part of the picture is missing) ,
-the font on some apps grows with lower resolution.

For me, in the beginning lots of freezes but now everything is so much faster !
There seems to be no RAW mode for the camera :'l
EDIT: Under 1st option

Uninstall music app and install it from Samsung app store(i had your problem aswell), uninstall Facebook updates and update again

When I answer in Viber, in the banner notification, and hit send, it automatically opens the whole conversation.
Should it be like this. In my opinion it would be much better just to send the written massage, and that's it.

What I am experiencing (which is serious) is that when you are connected to a WiFi network (and have constant WiFi scanning on) and then you turn off WiFi, it will NEVER turn off and just keep switching on and off (consuming much battery). The only fix I have found is disabling Constant WiFi scanning, but this is quite important actually if you use Google Now, so has anyone found any alternative solution to this?

I actually think this is a bug in the latest security patch (November). I'm not on N but I have this bug

Words still get corrected when typing even when i disabled autocorrect from keyboard settings

They moved the Raw setting in under the picture size setting. Seems that we now can set it on no matter what mode.

True, but enabling that doesn't seem to save pictures as RAW (with or without pro mode). Can anyone confirm?

What happened to being able to change the font color in AOD? With this beta, the font is white whereas before on MM, I had it set to blue. Can't seem to find the setting under Nougat.

It looks like there is no option to choose a color. I hope some Samsung guy reads in this forum, maybe they will apply some stuff from the threads.

I have a problem with localization in camera app. It shows a wrong position or wrong name of the street ,instead in the maps app localization works fine. Anyoneelse have this issue?

Confirm, it looks like a bad bug

Shooting while raw enabled works just fine to me, it does save the dng files. You need to use pro mode though.

It is very annoying for me,that i didnt find a solution yet.

Use WifiNoStandby (in my signature) and it will stop your wifi switching off when you're in standby.
Hope it helps
it does not work for me
i tried several apps but they do not have worked.
another problem is that any notification /e.g sound does not work too.

The notification sound should be okay - I've never experienced that not working. It's a known issue that the LED doesn't work for emails, but that's the only problem I'm aware of.
What ROM are you using, because I know some custom ROMs have problems with wifi staying on in standby.
i have tried it ones more and it works!
does continous wlan on drain the battery strong?
using xannytech pandora1.5
the weather doesnt update itself - annoying - how is it by u?

Glad you got it working mate.
Yes, the battery will obviously drain quicker, and it is noticable too, but if you're using a lot of wifi then you have to expect it.
The weather used to only update for me when I went to the weather tab, but since upgrading to a 1.66 based ROM it's been better.
I don't know what the xannytech ROM you're using is based on. If it's a big deal to you to have the weather updated then you'll probably need to try some other ROMs.
do u know a sheduler that works on thd hd2?
this app could activate de-activate wifi
another problem is coreplayer..

I don't personally know or use scheduling apps, but I know there plenty out there. Try searching in the themes & apps forum for something like that, or maybe a plain old google.
As for coreplayer not working when the screen's off, as far as I'm aware that's standard functionality and there's nothing you can do about it.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
thx mate!

Hangouts annoying scroll bug?

Loving my N5. Its so much faster than my S4 GPE. Has anyone else experienced this hangouts bug?
If I have a conversation in hangouts (both sms or gchat threads), when I send my message, the chat area does not scroll down to expose the message i just sent; it stays concealed until I scroll down manually or another message comes in or is sent.
Does anyone else have this behavior? if not, what troubleshooting steps would you recommend?
I performed all updates and rooted with CF auto. Otherwise, no material changes. I turned off animations.(tried turning it back on, did not solve the problem)
i have this also, crazy annoyin
I have the same issue with Hangouts on my GS2. I'm running 4.2 so I'm not sure if it's the same Hangouts version or not. I have noticed that when I get new messages (multiple), it will make me manually swipe from the bottom to refresh one message at a time. I thought this might have been a new feature to keep people from missing messages when there are several unread. I do agree though, it's kind of annoying when you have to swipe through like 20 new messages, one at a time.
Yup I too notice the same issue..
Man its annoying

Guessing you have developer options enabled? Go there and set all the animation scales to at least 0.5
Reset Hangouts

Set the animation again to 0.5 or above, and make sure you kill Hangouts before you try again. I had the same issue, and it would not detect the change in animation until you reset.

It works withh the 0.5 animation effect on. But still, it has to work regardless of my settings. Don't you think?

Nougat known bugs thread *Updated*

Hi
I wanted a thread where we all write down the bugs we have found and report them together to get them fixed a lot faster.
I will keep updating the thread as more bugs are found or posted by other members.
Bugs so far:
Android Wear/Nougat bug - If you enable "Ignore phone when using the watch" feature in Android Wear and then click "Find Phone" on the watch, the phone won't ring. This worked on Marshmallow. It disables "android device administrator" too if you set it to ring your phone. Also worked before Nougat.
Some users report problem with Google Play Services when downloading apps.
Some people report double application icons in settings.
smart view case not working properly when on AOD feature.
Missing colors in Peoples Edge feature.
Screen mirroring doesn't work with a ue50ku6000 samsung smart tv.
Some users report different kind of Facebook bugs.
After playing clash royale I go home switch to other app and lock phone. Then I get a notification (sound enabled) and after notification sound is played Clash Royale music starts to play even with phone locked on black screen.

Gallery app is not good.
For example gallery album preview optimization is really bad. Assume you have folders worth 2 scrolling pages. When you scroll back and forth, it always loads the album previews again and again and again idiotically.
Another example is that you are looking images in an album, you clicked and image, scrolled,scrolled and scrolled a lot of images. If you press back button you see last image is centered on album. But if you exit via zoom out gesture, you are doomed. Album is centered on first image.
Also scrolling between tabs on gallery is laggy. If you have a notification on gallery (the smart thing asking for if you want this collage etc) after going in the notifications exiting via back button freezes for a couple secs.

Sorry if its not clear. The reason being not good is because it is full of little bugs. I thought anyone used can understand that.

My notifications went silent, and when I tried to change the notification tone for sms, it said that I can't change the sound whilst I am on a call even though I hadn't been on a call in hours. Anyone else had this??
Camera filter doesn't show in camera interface (although i installed new ones).
Antutu score seems lower than MM version.
Sim Card manager text issues are still not resolved.
Inside apps I am not able to long press and copy text however this should be android native functionality not apps functionality. Used to work everywhere in MM.
after flashing BTU firmware I cant find all the themes in theme store. Majority of good themes are missing.

I don't know if is a bug, but AOD looks a step backwards from beta1, this one doesn't change its own brightness, and since yesterday I didn't see changing position neither, anyone noticed the same?

Same here but apps are dolphin browser, xe currency and stock message app
No solution?
Workaround is to use another launcher.
Thx for the tip,will try
I used google now launcher, but when choose app from opened apps, the screen will dim again. Waiting for fix with next update.

I did clear cache of nova launcher,and since yesterday it is working normal
I think that's not a bug, it's power save function, same happens in stock dialer, stock sms app and Gmail
When it cant be control by user in a normal on/off way,then its a bug
I have a same problem with Chrome and SMS stock app.

The auto-dimming in email and Chrome happened for me in EMUI 4 and now 5.
I was told that it is a power-saving feature and cannot be turned off.

Hi, occurs this problem on to the build 380? Thanks.
Same problem here. Battery saver is off, auto brightness is off too. Any workarounds or word from Huawei?
This happens on all mobiles with emui 5
Mate 8, honor 8, Huawei p9, nova...
Enviado desde mi FRD-L09 mediante Tapatalk
Really stupid bug that shows how poor emui developers are. Still in latest chinese developer rom, no sign that developers are even aware of the problem. Don't know how so few little people are reporting this, must be blind.
It should only happen when power saving mode is enabled like it did in older emui.
It causes so many problems. I have screen set to my preferred brightness then it dims so much when I open browser that I have to increase brightness every time. The only work around is to use 100% brightness all the time, then it does not dim the screen but this just a stupid waste of battery and bad for your eyes indoors.
---------- Post added at 06:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:17 PM ----------
It's not just email and chrome either. It's any web browser, nearly all system apps and a small few other third party apps.
Another issue that may not be a bug is when watching a movie the screen contrast increase dramatically and causes crushed blacks, does not happen on honor 7 with emui 4.

Notifications issue?

Hi there
I have a question for the international users of the Magic 2. I have not yet owned a Honor device but had several Huawei Mate devices in the past. The ones which I had from China always had the issue with delayed/not syncing notifications, for example Whatsapp etc. It only got better with the international firmware on it.
Does the Magic 2 also have this issue, seeing it only comes with Chinese Firmware?
Thanks very much!
I have the HM2 and I haven't experienced any issues with notifications, using Whatsapp, Telegram or whatever.

I have had a different experience unfortunately. Some apps only seem to sync and receive new notifications when I open them.
I've tried adding the problematic apps to "unrestricted data access" (despite it saying this should not effect notifications) to no avail.
Hope someone else has a solution!

That's exactly what I was afraid of, I also know this from my previous Huawei Mates.. well I have placed the order now already for it.. so I guess I will have to see.
Go to settings->apps->apps->WhatsApp(for example)->power usage details->app launch.
Change to manual and enable all. I think you can then switch it back to automatic.

These problems usually originate with power consumption settings and launch settings, if you let it run in the background and launch itself, it should work perfectly.
In any way I use Whatsapp regularly and it seems working fine with the default settings I had when installed.

And this
Most people that are having issues with notifications are totally unaware of the the aggressive battery saver on Huawei devices. You need to manually allow apps to run in the background and not be killed by the battery saver. Unfortunately the settings are but hidden and some time there are more than one option to were to do so.
