OTA updates are usually released in batches.
Just keep trying and it will pop up soon.

Mine showed up last night, near midnight. So far it seems very little different, I'm using NOVA Launcher and a couple of icons are changed, don't see much else.
I'll rate it as "mostly harmless."

Still says no update. Is it because I have a straight talk SIM card?

Someone else mentioned removing your sim and connecting to wifi to get the update.

You don't need a Verizon SIM. I'm in another country, using a local SIM here and still got the update.
I suggest you wait for a few more hours.
NB. You may find luck with a different Wi-Fi network.

i still havent got it yet i check about every hour for last 3 days

Can someone check to see if call recording still captures both sides of the call with this Oreo update?

Got my notice also, screenshots here... https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=77668746&postcount=388

I just now got my notice. Grow some patience it is not like it is going to do anything super awesome for you. In fact it will likely cause bugs and glitches for you. Btw I froze the updater gonna wait for a home cooked version from someone here.

Got the update, I lived outside US, I kept the sim card and just turn on WiFi and manually search for update.
It seems I have a lot better signal, anyone to confirm ?
When I turn off airplane mode, it find signal a lot faster.

Is there any chance we can use this version for other models, like the H990DS?

That would be a big no.

Yesterday, I updated it. But Ghost Screen Fix does not work well.
Ghost still appears when the status bar is pulled down.
Is there a way to fix it?

This update fixed my bluetooth streaming to Dodge Uconnect.

I just received an OTA update on 2015-07-13. About 45 MB or so, IIRC.

Where are you located ? I believe Europe got an update last week, and here in the US , we got an update this morning . The update fixes the DT2W issues among other things. There are already at least two ongoing threads discussing the results, post-update.

Nvidia god damn Shield tablet lte at&t

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.

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?

Auto Rotate Issues w/ latest update?

Has anyone else noticed any issues with their sensors after the December security patch? My auto rotate and proximity sensor both seem to be on the fritz. A reboot will temporarily fix the issue. I'm wondering if it's just my phone or others are experiencing these issues.
Sent from my SM-N920V using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Agreed. Screen doesn't go off when raised to your ear sometimes and same thing with autorotate. Reboot fixes it. It's annoying though.
Sent from my SM-N920V using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Driving me crazy! Most of the time not even the camera will rotate! Husband's phone is the same since last update.

Same here, I'm surprised how dead this forum is now. Hopefully 7 will be released soon and fix it, or an update in the interim.

Have you tried backing up and saving your stuff and then doing a full factory reset to see if that fixes your problems?

Thought about it, but at this point it seems easier just to reboot the phone.
Of note though, the rotation failure seems to happen after using navigation...possibly. I'll report back if I can determine certain apps or actions trigger the failure.

I don't get why they even bothered with the sensors and auto rotate because there was nothing wrong with them to begin with!! I guess Verizon hasn't ever heard of "if it ain't broke, don't mess with it".. This is why I don't like updating anyway!

I don't understand it either. I know I'll be leaving the Samsung brand on my next upgrade! My wife bought a note 7 and went through that fiasco. After returning it and getting an S7 she hasn't seen a security patch since. She is sitting on Samsung's newest flagship and it's on October's security patch. Now my note 5 is flaky thanks to updates to things that were working just fine. I'm done, I'm hoping the next Pixel phone is everything I want it to be.

I've pretty much had it with Verizon at this point myself and I especially don't like being told what I can and can't do with the phone that I paid 800 dollars for in one payment only to find out it's all locked the hell down and Verizon won't even offer those of us who do want to mod our phones a way to unlock the bootloader.. It's like buying a car and being told where you can and cannot drive it.. Plain stupid!!

I've already got my T-Mobile sim cards because I was testing a few carriers out and it seems like T-Mobile has the fastest speed, even beats Verizon which is sad! Basically I'm just waiting to see what the S8 is going to be like but it's not going to get bought if it's another locked down piece of junk!!

Sorry to keep bugging you but could you please check in your Settings then About Device then scroll down to Android security patch level and let us know what it states (for example January 1, 2017)? OR in the same section, maybe you can also check what the Android Version is... It would be nice if you got the Nougat update/7.x!
If you have the February 1, 2017 patch then that's what most of us are waiting for to fix these issues! If you are still on the January patch then we need to look for another answer/fix.
Thanks in advance for your help!

It looks like BPL4 (Dec) broke it and BQA1 (Jan) did not fix it.
I'm having the same issues with the screen-off during call and auto-rotate issues (I'm running BQA1).

It's not the April patch and we already had March's with Nougat. Hopefully some bug fixes and performance improvements. My battery has been a lot worse since Nougat
I notice a slight performance increase. Battery life definitely improved.
After the update, my phone won't boot past the Sprint LTE screen. Any one else with issues?

I didn't see an update from you about this, but I wanted to weigh in. I saw this thread and your issue. I installed the update myself and it seemed to stay on the Sprint LTE screen for way too long. I actually had time to stare at it, worry, then pull up this thread, reread your issue, read the reply about recovering, and reread the solution! Then the screen dimmed and after I stared it down some more, it loaded the system stating the update was successful. Not sure if this was your issue, but maybe? For those that may run into this, I guess be patient!

To fix the issue, I had to perform a clean Odin flash then update. I'm guessing the conflict was related to me previously being on the beta versions of Nougat.

Samsung's security updates are a month behind, it was basically the march security update now that it's just about April.

I had same issue before this update. Phone was stuck on beta version and said I was on the latest version when checking OTA. Smartswitch is complete garbage. Not only do you have to mess around with old C++ redistributable just to get the latest Smartswitch to run, once you do get it running the auto-prompt to revert back to stock no longer worked and the manual recover feature also didn't work as it said I had an invalid serial number even know I didn't. Not only did it not work, apparently the serial it wants is on the box only so if you don't have the box your SOL. I had the box and it still didn't work. Total lousy tool and worthless.
I ended up having to flash the official build with ODIN doing a clean flash. Once I did that, everything was great. Issues went away (battery drain, lag, getting hot, etc) Now this latest update popped up like normal. Update didn't take long to install, all good.
So those that were on beta at some point, use ODIN to flash official build. I already have a GS8+ on order and moving to big red after 15+ years with Sprint. Sprint is taking away subsidy on top of I can't take the network anymore it's total crap. That is a story for another day.
Well if anyone cares, the update includes the checks against hiding GPS mock apps from system. No more hiding. No more Pokemon Spoofing, if you're into that.

I have the same issue. Updated late Sunday evening and never got past the LET screen. I left it on over night plugged in and still at the LTE screen in the morning. Went to Samsung Experience Center in Best Buy and they re-flashed and all was well with no data loss.
I was prompted for the update again this morning, ran it and again looking at the damn LTE screen as I type this. The Samsung folks are off until Thursday so trying to figure this out. The SmartSwitch app does not recognize the phone.
Will look at Odin and appreciate any tips you, or anyone, has.

Anyone else experiencing any faster battery drainage after the update. I could go two days before this update between charges and now mine is dying within 6-8 hours off the charger. No new apps/settings since update. Same amount of usage

That is the version I currently have and that update was released a while back. Tizen version is 2.3.2.2 while the latest one is 2.3.2.3
The one issue I've seen since the update is that if my S3 disconnects from my phone then reconnect, Wi-Fi does not turn off automatically as it should. This also contributes to increased battery drain. I set it to off rather than auto in the meantime
