optimummind Posted April 27, 2016 Share Posted April 27, 2016 On the new update, can someone test this for me? Set Location to GPS Only for a few hours & then check Battery Usage for Android System. Is the GPS constantly on for almost as long as GPS was turned on or was GPS active for just a few seconds or minutes?

mhuling Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Really wish I hadn't taken through PD3 update. Battery life was twice as good before. Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optimummind Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Really wish I hadn't taken through PD3 update. Battery life was twice as good before. Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk Same here. PB5 was the best for battery life. I don't think the May update will fix it either. I'd love to be proven wrong. In the meanwhile, I've been decreasing my standby drain through an app called ForceDoze. I can now get > 6 hrs of SOT with everything on except sync.

mhuling Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Lookie here! All 3 factory firmwares! https://www.androidfilehost.com/?a=show&w=files&flid=56092 I have successfully downgraded to PC5 myself, but can't get the PB5 to work, I always get a bootloop. The uploader says he has successfully downgraded from PD3 to PB5 (sans bootloader) soooo your mileage may vary. But at any rate, pretty cool.

SturgeonGeneral Posted June 26, 2016 Author Share Posted June 26, 2016 Rokform about to release their locking mount / magnetic mount case for the s7 edge. http://www.rokform.com/galaxy-S7-Edge-cases Great setup on my bike. Still prefer the Speck Candy Shell for daily carry where I don't need a mount option. http://www.speckproducts.com/samsung/smartphone-cases/samsung-galaxy-s7-edge-cases/candyshell-grip-samsung-galaxy-s7-edge-cases/GS7E-CSG.html#q=s7%2Bedge&start=2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

optimummind Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 The update seems like another good one.

I was a bit worried about their history of updates, but I'm impressed. A timely update each month. This is my first Samsung device, but it may not be my last.

Ascertion Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Any of you guys using the GS7 on T-Mobile or AT&T? If so, does SignalCheck provide an accurate dBm value for WCMDA/HSPA? Mine just shows No Connection. I don't think the Sprint variant is affected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtciii Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Anyone else still having issues with WiFi calling enabled and receiving/making HD calls?
