Verizon- pie update?

[Iceystreeeet]

What's the latest you have heard with regard to the pie drop from big red Icey? We still looking at the end of the month?

Sadly the time table is end of the month Verizon wireless has stated to internal employees that this device update is not top priority and they are working on final results. Whatever the hell that means.

That's a standard everyone answer.
If you contacted Samsung, they would tell you it's on Verizon.

That's what I figured.

Thanks Icey for the update

Yeah, tried that, same result. Also another weird thing, all my paired Bluetooth devices (Gear S, 3, two headset, laptop, mouse, and tablet) disappeared randomly. Easy enough to redo but never had that happen before.

Looks like a factory reset is probably the answer at this point. Something isn't gelling with the update as is.

I had the paired bluetooth issue happen yesterday. Overnite they all disappeared easy to fix but never lost them before.

You can try that , sometimes new OS updates change settings for some unknown reason

I think I fixed it. Apparently I had the phone in a light power save mode when I did the update that carried over some goofy settings. Even though Gmail was set to have no restrictions, the phone must have been shutting it down after a few minutes of inactivity. I found that power setting and turned it off, voila, notifications are back

I was fortunate to find it as I was digging around one last time during a backup prepping for the factory reset. I'm not sure if this is a bug or a result from the ridiculous layering of settings now. It seems certain top level OS functions can override "do not touch" settings for individual apps. I'm not sure I can even put it back how it was to verify as I just get lost in all these menus.

That's great , Good thing you didn't have to do factory reset, but the medium power saving mode probably overrides any rules you applied to save battery further , so that makes sense but glad its working.

I'm hungry for a small slice of Pie from Verizon :-\

Just noticed,

My bluetooth in my car doesn't work what I had to do was clear the bluetooth connections and reconnect them.

Why did this happen simple.

Pie updated drivers in bluetooth its smarter and uses less consumption on the battery. Let me know if anyone else is having werid issues it took me 3 minutes to fix. I have over 50 bluetooth devices.

I had the same issue staying connected to my Garmin watch. Ended up taking me over an hour to find the answer on Garmin forums.
