SOLID Information on Samsung Galaxy S7 / S7 Edge Nougat Update???

[KPMcClave]

They have to put on all their bloatware on it and then test it.. so yea march is more likely..

The Verizon Beta has their bloatware on it. That's why it's the Verizon Beta. Vz Navigator, Kindle, Caller Name ID, Slacker Radio, Support and Protection, VVM (not what i'd call bloatware but Verizon's none the less), etc. are all on my phone with the Beta installed right now.

Could be next week for European users

And could be next year for America. I didn't get Marshmallow on my T-Mobile S5 (I know, I was lucky to get it at all, but then the ill-fated S6 was Sammy's flagship device at the time) until 9 mos. after it appeared on Google devices. Besides, even if Google does release it tomorrow, the carriers will find a way to bog it down and uglify it. I'm just glad Marshmallow works as well as it does.

Hope it comes with an extra battery. Can they do that OTA?

Last year I got the mm update on my S6 active months before it was release OTA. Someone posted a link to download it from ATT test servers.

I'm wondering if 7.xx lives on some ATT test servers somewhere....

T-Mobile should roll out before the end of the month.

Didn't Verizon drop out of the beta? Ya'll didn't get the last two updates.

Yes Verizon stayed on Beta 1 for the entire beta testing process which is what I am still on waiting for the final version to come through. There were actually 4 other versions of the Beta afterwards.

Verizon... Don't forget they also have to monkey around w removing features and changing menus to their preference rather than stock.

I think the funniest thing about it all is that this happens with every single OS update EVER. You would think people would have stopped complaining about release dates and times around 10 letters or more ago. Everyone hates their phone manufacturers because every phone manufacturer is slow to release, everyone hates their carrier because they are slow too, and everyone wants to go nexus until Google is slow with their own releases. All we can do is sit back and chill. When it drops it drops.

I was in the beta for Verizon and the experience for me was smooth and essentially flawless. There is no reason to think it should take until March for them to roll out this update.

The beta program worked till beta 5 dropped. Now I experience random reboots. I also experience a quite a bit of lag..

I just got a big update from Sprint. It's not a security patch. It mentions a lot of improvements. I just can't install it right now because the phone needs to charge since I'm at 12%. Once in a while I would check for updates. I seriously didn't think it was anything big but when I read the info I was thinking this isn't a regular update.

I haven't been able to see any changes after installing it (G935PVPU4APL6).

The only difference I see in the official version vs the final beta is that my battery life is a good bit worse.

Yep, it's pretty funny. The fanatics on these sites make it sound like it's the end of the world. "I am going back to Apple because I didn't get my update fast enough boo hoo hoo". 6.01 works just fine people, Nougat will drop when it drops, get a life lol.

your battery needs to settle in with every OS update.

Clear your cache partition then do 3 full charges / discharge to 20% then back to full

Agree with this. Every update puts a temporary taxing on your battery until it settles.

Yes AT&T did not allow its users to get into the Beta Program. They like to have too much control over their software and Junk. So it is No telling when AT&T may release Nougat for its customers. Maybe after S8 is out to help sales of S8 for them.
