So, Nvidia has final re released marshmallow for k1, thanks to at&t tho, the lte model still hasn't been pushed through. What the hell at&t? So I have to do a bunch of crap to get the update unofficially, (root, unlock bootloader etc.) I feel like I shouldn't have to do all this just to receive an update that should have been here already. The only reason this makes me angry it's because my Shield tablet is having touch screen issues out of nowhere and I'm hoping the new marshmallow update will fix this. I swear, I'm never getting a carrier branded device ever again. Looks like I should have gotten the pixel c.
Apply for the US LTE Developer Vulcan 6.0.1 and get the update within a few days - done
It works better than 6.0 too..

Yep, I used Personal and N/A for company and url when applying and got approved without issues. Update applies with TWRP, and latest SuperSU beta seems to be working great.

What kills me is the original LTE wasn't a "carrier branded" device. It was sold unlocked LTE yet ATT bloatware comes as standard and after it is enabled can not be disabled! My non rooted stock 6.0.1 can no longer SMS after the 4.1 update, I have no relationship with ATT as I use an mvno. My text and data plan had been working flawlessly til now! Are you folks able to SMS on the 4.1 update?

Yes but Im on the unlocked firmware Verizon s7 edge I had used odin to flash the unlocked firmware a few months back not rooted just received the APL4 with December security patch I suppose this is wrong place to have posted that since im on unlocked firmware.
No it's not!! Not to Verizon anyway!!
*not
Well only 2 days left in January 2017 and no Nougat update anywhere in site.
Once again, thanks Verizon for failing your loyal customers!!!!!!
Verizon will wait for S8 device to drop and then put the S7 devices on the shelf. I don't think that they ever intended to provide Nougat to S7 even though they participated in the beta. S8 is just a few months away therefore projecting another avenue of revenue for Verizon.
I wouldn't say that the s7 will be left out at least not by the developers of this forum. Maybe verizon however thanks to that person in the beta forum we can at least install 7.0 which is a beta maybe in we can un beta the beta in the future and have a perfect 7.0 rom. With that being said im just fine with 7.0
Won't really be a significant difference between 7.0 and 7.1.
February.... march...what the heck verizon get it together or im going back to straight talk, i thought i payed hundreds more for less inconvenience.
Same as it is every year. It's a contest between getting a new model phone with the new OS or Verizon letting us have one. Usually close to a tie. in any case I stopped worrying about the new OS and just get a new phone every year. That's' probably what they want.. Maybe this year I'll have it for about a few weeks at most before a new model is available. Whatever Verizon....
I'm looking to go to I phone 8 on T Mobile before buying another non updated locked down Samsung product from Verizon. I may try second gen pixel if it looks good.
I really want Nougat to be released but at the rate it's going, support is nonexistent for this phone. I'm honestly thinking of canceling my Verizon plan and going to Straight Talk with VZW towers. At least then I'll be able to pay for what I get, ya know? Just wish they had the Pixel XL on the straight talk payment plan store.

Yeah i guess we here in america will get the full version much later i guess. Maybe even closer to the end of the month unless it is sprint who is postponing it for us
I just did a google search for news on the update and it looks like it might be halted for us till February. It looks like samsung had to send out a beta 7 version to china and europe cause of some bugs. So we might not get the full version till next month maybe.

Couldn't find any unique screenshots for this variant yet, but I imagine it's most of the same stuff. I can't even find much about T-Mobile and At&t. I wanted to know which features are taken away compared to the exynos version or comparing them to different carriers. The net is flooded with months old news from the exynos version as far as pictures and videos even in articles that are for US/China qualcom. We are just late to the party lol.
It hit my phone around 1am last night. Should be out to all beta testes by end of day (according to a sprint rep)

According to the Sprint reps post in the Samsung Beta app, non beta users should start receiving it tomorrow in waves. Full rollout should be reached by the 27th or 28th

No, don't pay attention to internet scuttlebutt. That being said, nobody truly knows when the official will ship, but TMO has been excellent with providing timely updates in the past. I suspect it will ship sooner rather than later.
I checked the T-Mobile software update site last week and the S7 edge was only in the Manufacturing Development stage. It has since moved to the T-Mobile Testing stage. I would think we'll see the update sooner than later.

The sad thing is that the non-carrier variants for US (G935U) doesn't even have Nougat beta or whatsoever. Plus, T-Mobile let its customers know at least the stage of Nougat release on the phone while Samsung has no mention of Nougat coming to 935Us. Also, the non-carrier variants are on a quarterly update cycle for security updates too. So, it would seem that, at least in the US, get the carrier variants for Samsung phones.

I am fine with quarterly updates, but yes carrier phones are getting the update before unlocked phones. I am willing to bet Sammy is being "forced" to allow carrier updates first because all US variance can flash the unlocked version.

It was released randomly for the SM-N920C 2 ¹/² weeks ago in Turkey...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=71465602
...so it shouldn't be too much longer for the rest of the world to get it. Depends on when your service provider decides to release it though. I asked T-Mobile when it would be for SM-N920T and they pretty much said that they weren't allowed to say, that it would be sometime in the near future and just to keep an eye out for it. No one knows when it will be released, but literally EVERYONE is waiting for this, so believe me you'll know when it arrives on XDA.
Sprint got 7.0 today
We got N920TUVU4DQC2 today.. guess we have to wait a bit longer for Nougat.

Here's a write up about the Sprint Note 5
http://phandroid.com/2017/04/06/sprint-galaxy-note-5-nougat-update/
Folks rocking the Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 5 will want to be on the lookout for an OTA to hit their phone. It’s Nougat!
The update is coming in as version N920PVPU3DQC5, a 1.4GB affair. It’ll be receiving all of Nougat’s new features and those which Samsung are delivering as part of a big upgrade to TouchWiz. It may even make your phone feel brand new, though we aren’t promising anything. Oh, and its security patches are fairly up to speed with a March 1st, 2017 level.
Anyway, for such a massive file size you’ll want to make sure you’re on a WiFi connection and have a decently charged battery (let’s say more than 50% to be on the safe side) before attempting to pull it down. Head to the settings menu on your phone to look for it manually if it hasn’t already hit your notifications tray.

I made this tutorial awhile ago for people with root to still be able to receive the update. Doesn't work if you're currently using a Nougat rom though. Can be done easily however from either stock Marshmallow or a Marshmallow rom that's based on your devices firmware.

I wonder why all the other major US carriers have it out and TMO does not. I hope it is not an indication that the TMO version has bugs.
