Thanks. Found it.
So if I register it will then push me the beta is I check for software updates? If I decide I don't want to do thr beta I would have to go back to Samsung Member app and de-register? Then I would have to wipe my phone?
Do you create backups still using Smart Switch while in beta and use the backup if you want to quit and go back? Or do you make a backup before going to beta and not update when in beta?
Thanks.

No back ups while in beta, I have them ready from last stable public firmware, you unregister then yes would wipe to go back but what I've done is flash the last firmware with home CSC that way no factory reset

Flash the latest firmware with home CSC?
Once the beta becomes Final Release I am guessing you wipe the phone and get a clean install of new version?

So I have always enrolled in Samsung beta program. I loaded the 1st version last night.
One thing I noticed, I'm on vacation in Hawaii and when I was using 4.1 and taking photos of people with a scenic background, the background was blown out and the people were in focus. I by passed this with the expert raw photo app. Last night I went to watch the sunset and while taking the photos the background was blown out washed out and the subject was in focus. However when I went to the gallery to view the photos it gave me the same results as the expert raw app.

Naw, before even if you put an AT&T sim in it would get restricted like how they used to restrict WiFi calling and other Advanced AT&T features.

I'm using unlocked with Verizon SIM, and everything is working. Verizon branded used to be not allowed, but I don't know if that has changed.

Any issues with using banking apps in the US with this Beta? I know the Google Pay and Samsung Pay don't work, but worry about other banking apps.
