s7 edge 7.0 beta thread

[lafountain]

Im most happy with VOLTE being enabled on my unlocked edge in the UK. Previously you've always needed the carrier version to get VOLTE on android, only the iPhone supported it natively. But it's now working great on the EE network with the nougat beta.

Finding the new look a bigger change than expected it to be but overall happy. Few lags here and there but no major bugs.

Anyone know how to give feedback? The FAQ said to use the beta app but it doesn't have any options in there to do so. Is it this new Samsung members app?

Yes, in the Samsung Members app is where you provide feedback.

Anyone have any issues using a Gear device after the update?

My battery life is actually phenomenal on the beta. It just doesn't seem to drain at all. Maybe the battery meter is wrong!

I would normally get 4 hours screen on max on a work day. Not the best signal at work and no Wi-Fi. On course for a good hour more than that, maybe even 2!

Come on Verizon!!

I had lots of apps complaining about the update , including gear. I did a factory reset and everything works fine.

It may well have worked fine had I not done that, but I was happy to start fresh.

I tried out the LGV20 and that Nougat was awesome. I might even go back to that phone until S8 debuts

At least you guys got to register. I think they let like 5 people be testers lol.

Yep, can't get my Gear VR to work. Unistalled the Oculus app, and the Gear VR app, and now it won't allow me to re-download the Oculus app. I keep getting a Network settings error.

So goes the beta testing experience.

I didn't see any update notifications from sprint users until 1 day after their date of 11/9. I'm guessing vzw will start pushing update out more on 11/12.

I think that was one of the prerequisites for the Beta that the VR wouldn't work. I've a Gear S3 arriving next week and hopefully it's ok.

Of course there's not. This is beta testing. It is only when the program has ended that the FW will roll out to carriers to fill with bloatware before it gets rolled out. I doubt you will get it this year.

Good Grief! I'm stunned

i am on verizon do we need to enable oem option or are we all set to get update

 

[French]

Well Verizon is likely delayed because they worry so much about shutting down useful features that conflict with their money grubbing. You know, like Samsung Cloud. Or screen settings as a stand-alone change (more pixels = more data push). Or god forbid actually going with the Grace UX/Nougat menu layout...I am happy to be corrected if I'm making assumptions based on my Note 7 experience with Verizon...

Let's give vzw the benefit of the doubt. Everyone has their own complaints about their carriers. At least vzw is on the beta test unlike AT&T.

This made me lol, no idea why.

I do wish they, Verizon/Samsung, would just push the update already
