Is it a good idea to update latest firmware? I just got a notification recently saying that there is an update. So I heard about Samsung took some precautions to prevent rooting with new firmware. I am not planning to root my device soon but was just wondering, is there any disadvantage of updating to latest firmware?

i received it when i opened my kies but not the verizon software app
Yes. We have been discussing it at the end of this thread.
It is recommended that you wait to update until we have determined if the bootloader will prevent downgrading to a previous firmware or not.
Hey all. I am in the US but bought international S7Edge when it came out. I dont know what firmware it had I think it was some italian one maybe. Then i rooted and started using custom roms. Then when nougat officially came out for S7Edge i un-rooted and went back to 100% stock using i think Vodafone 7.0 firmware. I think because i rooted i have a negative test response from Knox which i think stops me from getting OTA updates. It shows in software info that my OS version has security patch only from January 2017 so I am clearly not on latest firmware even though OTA says I am on latest.
Is there a site with a database of all firmwares out for the S7Edge international variant So i can find the latest and flash it to my phone since OTA wont get the latest.
samsmobile has the latest.
Yoiu still have an issue with your kernal as phone still thinks you have custom rom. Tripped knox on stock firmware will not stop OTA from downloading.
Hello all,
So just recently I was having problems with my current firmware of Marshmallow 6.0 and I was thinking it's about time to upgrade to one of the latest firmwares available to XT1575. I'm always getting the update notification for Nougat 7.0 and I somehow accidentally chose the option to download the firmware and install it. As of now, I am stuck with my phone trying to update itself to Nougat 7.0. If you're wondering, yes my phone is rooted using Magisk. I am clueless of what to do now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

After several reboots, I received the update failed notification. Problem has solved itself.
So my wife's S7 will not receive OTA updates... She is stuck on 6.0. After a little research it appears that she is not getting the OTA updates because she is still on the G930AUCU1APB4 version
Her phone is not rooted.
Is there a way to force the baseband update?
