New OTA Update for Samsung J7 - Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers

Just a question... Did anyone get a OTA update from MetroPCS today (06-25-2017). If so, how is the update and should we update..
Showing basebandJ700T1UVS3AQF1

I received the update for T-Mobile. Not sure, if it's better than the previous update, so far don't see any improvement.

The update is mostly for security patches from what I can tell.

H959-15C Software Update

Just received software update 15-C for my H959 Singapore varient.
I have not updated my phone to it yet, still running 15-A.
Did anyone update or flash it yet? If yes, what are the improvements?
There is no improvement apparent. However it is a later revision so I just did it, you lose nothing.

New OTA update G935VVRU4BQC5

Still haven't received it but it looks like a junk update.
NRD90M.G935VVRU4BQC5
This software update provides the latest enhancements for Enterprise customers.
One Talkā„  from Verizon:
The Galaxy S7 edge now supports One Talk, connecting your office and mobile devices with one number.
App update:
Amazon Shopping (version 8.1.1)
https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/samsung-galaxy-s7-edge-update/
Edit: I received it and it updated Android security patch level to April
Are you sure that the OTA Firmware isn't actually a 7.0+ Nougat Build? The QC builds that I've seen so far have all been at least base 7.0 Nougat.
I don't have a S7 vzw. Yet. Probably within a few days.

Update downloaded, install failed. Guessing because I'm rooted.. anyone else??
They just now only included One Talk? That's been on the S6 and S5 for a long time now.

Yep. You can return to stock and keep some directory changes you made by using their desktop Verizon Software Recovery utility for Samsung. You'd lose root but the phone will get and install OTA updates.

Installed and used it for a couple of days. Found, that security changes made all calendar notifications on locked screen to be hidden - "some hidden event" & "some hidden time"
I know we will lose root if we take this update but is the update still rootable? I'm rooted on QA4 still and refused to take this update yet as I just received the notification today(Tuesday 5/2/17). I like being rooted with dual speaker mod,and V4A installed. Can anybody confirm if this version is rootable using the Nougat root method? How can I disable the uodates?

If you go to @jrkruse "root for nougat" thread and follow his guide, you'll be able to root the qc5firmware.

I am already on BQC5 and just this morning I got a new system software update downloaded, ready to install message. Odd thing is in the past, prior to BQC5 the notification showed the build number, date and what was changing. Now it doesn't show me anything. It just says there is an update do you want to install now or later.....
Anyone have info on this "unknown" system update?
Looks like this
Software Update G930VVRS4BQC9 for Samsung Galaxy S7 and G935VVRS4BQC9 Galaxy S7 Edge
Android May security update.
Device Stability improvements, bug fixes.
Further improvements to performance.
http://sihmar.com/software-update-g930vvrs4bqc9-galaxy-s7-edge/
Should say further improvements to guaranteeing random lag.

Tmobile and Sprint get updates first.

So is it normal for Tmobile and Sprint go get updates first?
Looks like they have an update rolling out starting last night.
Anyone get one on AT&T yet. Might jump per to Tmobile firmware if They get all the updates first.
Also what security patch is the U1 firmware on? I know Samsung made some promises after the unlocked S7 that they would be better at pushing out updates directly to that phone. If they get better with those updates I'd switch to that firmware I think as well.
Yes, T-Mobile & Sprint are faster generally.
As for Samsung's promise to step up support for the U phones, I guess it's too early to tell. With that said, however, Samsung recently pushed out the May update for the 935U which was a pleasant surprise. So far after Samsung's promise, the 935U has gotten the updates 2 months in a row instead of once every 3 months.

Did they get an update already? I thought they just started out on the May patch, are they on the June patch already?
If it's going to be that far ahead I'll switch to that firmware right away.
AT&T update live now. I can't download yet, no wifi.

Mine just updated to AQEF, May Security patch level.
May? Can you reconfirm this? Unlocked is June.

Just installed AQEF and it says May 1, 2017 for the Android security patch level.

Yeah so is the AT&T firmware really a whole MONTH behind the Unlocked Firmware?
That blows my mind. Also really is pushing me towards switching to the Unlocked firmware.
Screen shot below of the AT&T firmware version numbers.

AT&T always last, man
If all it is is the June patch, then at&t is way ahead.

It also enables the ability to toggle/hide the bottom navigation bar. Which I'm pumped about

Noticed this Update 24.231.16

I froze my moto updater at the Sept update. But today this update was able to come through. 24.231.16 is the update. I don't think its Nougat, because the xt1572 it started with 25.XXX.XX. This is for the MOTO X PURE xt1575. Any info thanks.
Nevermind it was the febuary update. Also noticed the the Motorola Updated was unfrozen. Hence how the update got through.
That's the December security patch, definitely not nougat

Security/Firmware Updates. Are they acummulative? Issue /w G930F

I just picked up a SM-G930F and it will not update to the latest. My last update is January.
Being I'm so far behind I would like to know if I have to install the latest or all of them in order.
Just install the latest, they are full ROMs not updates, updates only come from OTA
Thanks!
