I'm extremely happy with mine. I've had iPhone users handle my S7 to take a picture and they're always stunned at how nice the camera is, especially in low light.

Yep, cleared the cache partition twice actually. Once shortly after the update and once again later. It was really acting up bad last night; screen going black, restarting itself, apps were slow and sluggish, texts not working, generally unresponsive, etc.. But then this morning it seems...

Got an update tonight. My Messenger app took a dive after the update, and I've had numerous restarts and problems just in the last hour since the update. Phone is still hot as hell too.

Thanks guys. Had the chance to try it again today and it worked. I was still using NFC and bumping the backs of the phones together like you used to with S-Beam. I didn't realize that was no longer necessary. I think I might like the new system a little better actually. Bumping the backs of...

Hmm. Can I ask what your process was? Like I said, mine is telling me even a photo is too large. On a side note, ballpark how long would you say the transfer took?

Yep, like I said, I know the name and process changed a little. It's no longer called S-Beam I guess. But the new process isn't working on my phone. Both phones had WiFi and NFC turned on. WiFi direct was established, and the transfer fails every time, saying the file is too large.

A few years back I had an S4 and a friend had an S3. If one of us wanted to transfer large videos or pictures across phones, S-Beam would transfer even files of a gig or two at astonishingly fast speeds. I tried last week to do this with my S7 to another S7, no luck. I know they changed the...

I very frequently close everything out out of habit. Don't know if it would really perform better if I didn't.

Works great on my S7. This is my first phone with a fingerprint reader. I actually used to always think it was silly and unnecessary. Now I use it almost 100% of the time to unlock my phone. The fingerprint reader and Samsung Pay might be two of the features on my S7 that I am most...

My home button still looks pristine after maybe two months or more. Someone else did ask about home button damage here a few weeks ago; they didn't experience it themselves but heard that it might be a problem. Never had a problem with the home button on my S4 either, but that may not be relevant.

Mine isn't overly sensitive at all. And in fact the bottom edge I think isn't sensitive enough. I do have a screen protector on mine.

Glad I checked out that article. I looked yesterday and didn't see it. I didn't realize then I had to check under "system apps". I just saw it wasn't in the main list under application manager.

No issues with mine or the button on my S4.

Wifi turned on? Happening once and I wouldn't read too much into it. Happens again and I'd be concerned. Do you have the Bluetooth and Wifi scanning off under Location options?

I turn off my BT all the time for the same reason. I only turn it on when I get in the truck or car.
