Samsung Galaxy S7 & S7 Edge User Thread


SturgeonGeneral

Recommended Posts

I'm on the beta and I just noticed the incoming call issue yesterday after the 4th update. My phone does nothing but ring. I have to unlock the screen then go into the notification area to answer the call. I don't get many calls so not sure if this is new since the update.

The only other issue I have had is wifi dropping and reconnecting periodically. Not sure yet if that's been fixed in the update.

Hey all, just got a gs7e. How do I get in on the beta?

If they are still taking people in the beta program just go to the samsung apps look for "Galaxy beta program" and "samsung members" install them and open it will guide you through the process. Good luck

Yes, it is broken on my S7 edge with the last (most recent) beta.  Here's hoping the final release has it working.

Official 7.0 Nougat software is now rolling out to users who are using the beta software first.  

 

Also, has 3x CA been enabled, I know Sprint was targeting early 2017 to enable 3x CA on the S7.

Samsung ending beta program. I thought they beta test 7.1 before releasing it next month. But oh well.

Not sure I've noticed this before. Doesn't mean it wasn't happening.

 

Took the update the other day. Looks to be uploading on Band 25 and downloading on Band 26. I would think if these devices had the capability of using different bands for different functions that it would be the other way around ... Down on 25 and up on 26.

Am I reading this right?

Also did a speed test just for fun. (I'm indoors)

    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
    • At some point over the weekend, T-Mobile bumped the Omaha metro from 100+40 to 100+90 of n41! That's a pretty large increase from what we had just a few weeks ago when we were sitting at 80+40Mhz. Out of curiosity, tested a site on my way to work and pulled 1.4Gpbs. That's the fastest I've ever gotten on T-Mobile! For those that know Omaha, this was on Dodge street in Midtown so not exactly a quiet area!
    • Did you mean a different site? eNB ID 112039 has been around for years. Streetview even has it with C-band back in 2022 - https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7303042,-73.9610924,3a,24.1y,18.03h,109.66t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g!2e0!5s20220201T000000!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3D2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.share%26w%3D900%26h%3D600%26yaw%3D18.027734930682684%26pitch%3D-19.664180274382204%26thumbfov%3D90!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205410&entry=ttu Meanwhile, Verizon's eNB 84484 in Fort Greene has been updated to include C-band and CBRS, but not mmWave. I've seen this a few times now on updated Verizon sites where it's just the CBRS antenna on its own, not in a shroud and without mmWave. Odd.
    • Drove out into the country today.  Dish stuck to my phone like glue. At least -120 rsrp. Likely only good for phone calls (should have tested.) It then switched to T-Mobile. Getting back on Dish was another issue. I am used to dragging out coverage so I expected a few miles, but had to drive at least 10 miles towards a Dish site. Airplane mode, which worked for Sprint, did nothing. Rebooting did nothing. Finally got it to change over about 2 miles from the site by manually setting the carrier to Dish then it had great reception. Sprint used to have a 15 minute timeout but I did not have the patience today.  Previously I did a speed test on Dish out in the country at the edge of Dish coverage. My speeds were 2g variety. Dish has really overclocked some of these sites. Seen rssp readings in the 50s. Would have called them boomer sites with Sprint but much  more common with Dish.
