s6 Verizon update today

[steveinil]

Anyone having issues? Said security update but phone has worse signal now and we did a restart and it's doing the optimizing apps thing again?

Make sure you let the optimizing finish completely. I got the security update last week and i have not noticed anything different. on G4

Mine updated this AM, let it fully execute and have noted no difference since the update.

Upgraded last night. It installed a handful of apps - cvs, ebay and a few games I've never heard of. I was able to Uninstall them, but that's slimy of them (not sure if it was a Samsung thing or a Verizon thing). I imagine others saw this as well?

I upgraded yesterday too and I didn't have those apps installed before and I still don't have those apps. And yes I'm on Verizon also. So I'm not sure what installed them, but it wasn't the update

This update has been horrible for me... Phone was working great before this update. Now 50% of the phone calls are going straight to voice-mail.. The phone never rang... And I don't have a missed call.. It just goes straight to vm.

Then, I am unable to make a call and use internet/email/ etc(advanced calling is on) ... I get this message:

*update*

Fixed- called verizon, they had me turn OFF advanced calling, reboot phone, then turn advanced calling back on. Working again. Just the reboot wouldn't work.. For whatever reason, the advanced calling had to be shut off before reboot.

Same here, update didn't change anything on mine...

Another update....the verizon solution was only temporary.

This update has messed up my phone... Stupid phone will not do voice and data now after update. I'm having to manually switch off advanced calling, turn it back on, then it works for a short while... Then again nothing... I'm pissed

Finally resolution! Been ongoing for 2 weeks now. They had me get a new sim card... Working perfectly again!

I just noticed my company-provided S6 is doing the same thing, will see what I find out.

Another update.. Sim card was working for a while. Now getting same message again.

Just did verizon/samsung software repair. This does a factory reset as well.

My S6 seems to be fixed ... For now. I will keep this updated.
