Great news everyone!!! I looked at my chromecast app today and lo and behold, there was the cast screen option. And it works like it should. There is a bit of lag, like a half second or less even and it does stutter some times if you are playing audio/video files, but overall its works fine.
Just noticed that last night too! Good news!
Think that's a standard 4.4 KK feature. My N7s had it since they updated the Chromecast app earlier this past summer. Great for Clash of Clash group sessions haha.

I dunno about anyone else, but when I first got my VZW N4 and was playing around with all the features and I noticed that the cast screen option wasn't listed on the chromecast app. My last phone was a rooted S3 and I used that option a lot so I definitely remember it not being there (and wondering why the hell not!). I guess my chromecast app just wasn't updated, but I don't think that's it. At any rate, its working on my phone now so I'm back to cool.

It's not a standard 4.4.4 feature. It's a feature that's only available on 4.4.4 and above, but each device has to be given support (at least on 4.4.4 - I'm not sure about 5.0). Until recently, the Note 4 wasn't supported.

No, it isn't standard. The note 4 was included as a supported device no more than 2 weeks ago.

Since the release of 4.4 for the Nexus 7 I've been constantly hitting the update button on my beloved tablet and I have yet to see the coveted update. Is there anyone else that shares this same fate? Am I being impatient?
I know I could root and I've thought about it, actually but I really wanted to see how long I could refrain from crack-flashing every single thing I own. But I might not have a choice since I just read that the Moto X for Verizon is now getting the update.
The fact that any device from Verizon is getting an update before a Nexus is making me nervous that maybe something is amiss with my tablet...
Nothing for me yet.. just updated my MotoX an hour ago though. A Nexus 7 update today would be like having the most awesome Christmas ever...

No update for me as well (both N7 adn N4)
No update - UK WIFI Nexus 7 16GB
No update for my n7/13 or n4 (both stock unlocked) but I had sideloaded 4.4 to my rooted n7/12 and received the ota KRT16S last night. I flashed stock recovery and had super su (1.72B) set to protect root, all went well and I didn't loose root. Flashed back to twrp with flashify.

No update neither here - Nexus 7 WIFI IT 16 GB
If you like to stream flash videos (or stream NBA games, etc), watch out. Kit Kat breaks it because apparently they've updated the web engine which doesn't support flash at all.
No update for me either. Nexus 7 2012 32gb

Seriously, if you really can't wait, grab the OTA off Google's servers. There's no need to complain when you can have it right now.
Is it possible to do that even if my tablet isn't rooted?
If so please can you let me know how?
Thanks in advance

Mine is choppy (low frame rate) occasionally - it was more noticeable during the recent halloween event. Seems ok now since the thanksgiving update.
It does crash quite frequently though - maybe one out of every three or four sessions.
I play daily and it crashes at least once every time I play it. Used to have sgs4 I337 running gpe Roms and it wouldn't work at all. Warrantied a bad headset speaker and here I am. The new sgs4 AT&T sent me had a locked boot loader and no root android 4.3. I didn't want a galaxy phone so sold it for 400 bought the nexus 5.
Level 37 now. Same as zulugod stated was laggy with Halloween update, better now.

In 37, it does have fps lag and crashes like six times before I can assign everyone to tasks

Yes, disabled system apps will cause it to fail. Only apps that came with the phone will.

Downloading the first of the two updates. Will update regarding if it ends up being seemless or if anything strange arises during the process. My handset is about as stock/vanilla as they come since I haven't attempted any of the ridiculous lengths it has traditionally taken to root/unlock this phone.
Update 1: Took an additional restart to get a successfully installed statement for the stagefright/LP prep update. Currently downloading the LP OTAD
Update 2: First startup was a little long but expected since it was a new rom. Everything going well so far. One odd brief issue where Google play services rolled back to a previous release and spammed warning messages but it corrected itself.
Sent from my XT1060 using Tapatalk
Any reason not to upgrade?
I remember people were saying with some of the early versions and non OTA software there being an issue with Wave to Wake
As well as a hit to battery life because of Lollipop not doing a great job of utilizing the X8 CPU.
Wave wake doesn't work. As far as I know, it was a big that was never supposed to work with KitKat.
Battery life seems up to par with KitKat for me.
Lol sorry moto, but its kinda late for you I just switch to Nexus 5 last week
I checked both internal system update and Moto Device Manager... nothing.
I am using DE though, not regular Verizon XT1060.

You can read the other several threads in the General section to answer your question. FYI this is in the wrong section.
I think you can go ahead. i am already using this as my daily driver. And its quiet nice.
With my my day to day use i cannot tell that it is beta its already in a better state
I installed it within days of receiving my 6P. There are a couple bugs obviously. Some apps won't run but nothing too bad. Some display issues but overall I'm happy. Only thing I miss is root

Well may be. This is my first non-Samsung phone in a while. To prove it I am still not sure whether there is a fuse like Knox and the 6P. kind of scared to unlock and route due to the pain I had with the note 5 and not being able to use Samsung pay four Google pay … Or warranty I guess LOL

Yes, it is available
I ran it for about a day or so, and to be honest it was stable for the most part but sluggish in some areas and some of the apps I use regularly started crashing and such. But it's definitely something I looking forward to once it's fully released/stable

Hurry up before they close sign ups.
If you don't know how to register, simply download the Samsung beta program from the galaxy apps store (not play store) and then follow the prompts.
I hope you guys find this helpful

Mine works fine without the wipe.
I was just sharing my experience as I just got the phone the day before. I had the phone all set up it was working fine on Android 6.0.1. I upgraded to the beta for nougat Android 7.0 and immediately my phone kept rebooting every 30 seconds or little bit longer. Once I realized the data I have not had any issues at all.

I had massive restart loop every 30 seconds yesterday. Have been troubleshooting. Ultimately had to rewipe again, to get it to work.
Sent from my SM-G935P using Tapatalk
I downloaded the app this afternoon, did the registration, went into my setting and checked for an update and it downloaded nougat. The one thing I have found is that Bluetooth sucks! Seriously my music breaks up with it just in my pocket and I'm wearing Bluetooth headphones. Then I took it out of my pocket and put it on the counter and I can't get 5 feet away from the phone and the music breaks up again. Prior to the update I could go to the gym, put my phone down and be a good 40 feet away and it would still work fine.

Thanks to this thread I installed the beta Nougat OS.
Nothing bad so far. I did NOT wipe or remove data.
So far, I really like it. The SoTP meter says it's faster. Only thing that doesn't work so far is my Agenda Widget. Love the improved AOD. Battery seems to last a little longer, but not enough experience to say definitively. I did notice that the phone was warm when at 100% this morning. Haven't seen that since the update that stopped us charging to 100% (even though the display said it was).
The options in Settings are better- much better control of notifications.
I'll post more as I discover it.
Is anybody having the issue where the speaker volume is really quiet? Like unusable when watching YouTube.

Sprint users were part of the beta too, so it shouldn't be like rollouts in the past. Although I don't understand why we've been testing 7.0 and the final is supposed to be 7.1.1, unless Sprint stays on 7.0.

If sammy sends them 7.1.1 them that's what we will get. 7.1.1 isn't that much different from 7.0 just a few features added like app menu short cuts which wouldnt take much for them to add in the final release .I really dnt get how beta is over with all bugs not fixed. I personality still have an issue with Youtube videos not working after some time. Notification tones stop working after some time. No factory reset or caches clear has fixed this in the whole beta process.
