Just received a notification for an update. I have not installed it yet. The change log says an FM radio option has been added as well as a security update. Does anyone have any feedback on this update before I go ahead and install?

Just installed it. But I can not see an FM app being installed so I don't know how to take advantage of that feature which is now supposedly available to me. (T-mobile) Only FM apps that I can see on play store are for motorola phones.

Yes, the NextRadio app works and FM chip works.
I work in suburb, so not many stations could be picked up, but I could listen to couple of stations. (With T-mobile's music freedom, the use will be quite limited, BUT if I go to a place where T-mobile signal is weak and there are FM stations, why not...)
I updated also, seems there is no visible difference. Haven't really tried the fm. On another note i was hoping my music stored on device in playlist from itunes (used iSync) would fix the issue i have where sometimes songs skip to a random song in the playlist even when random is not selected. Other times i'll play a song and 3 secs. in it skips to another track. Quite annoying...
Verizon of course has not even received the April update yet, as usual last.

My friend's Sprint device updated today and got April update.
So, from big 4, T-mobile appear to be the one who appear to be on the ball with keeping up with the update.
That said, I did read that AT&T version of S7 does have FM chip enabled anyways.
Uk vodafone here, i had the a update early this morning but haven't noticed any difference
Is auto brightness problem fixed?

I know, I have been waiting for the latest update because my phone has frozen a couple times lately and battery life seems to be worse. I did try clearing cache and disabling apps, but this doesn't help too much. So I was going to factory reset but wanted to wait for the update and then do it. At this point it may not be worth waiting.
Hey,

When I updated to 5.0.1, the bluetooth streaming audio started to hickup every couple minutes when streaming from any audio app. I've wiped and done a clean reinstall but it still glitches. It didn't happen under any older rom so I'm assuming it's a bug in OB7.

Install a 3rd Party FM Radio app. A blog recommended NextRadio, and it seems to work well.
I just bought an AT&T S7 that was on the February security patch. I put in my T-Mobile SIM, and checked for updates, and just pulled one. It's 130ish megabytes, I'm assuming it's the May update.

There was an April Security Patch Update as well. Since no one else can confirm a May Patch, it is most likely you gotten the April Patch within the recent download.
However please don't assume anything, because your post could mislead others to think there is a May Patch that they are not getting and will waste time looking for one because your post "assumed" that there is one out in the wild. Don't take it personal, there are a lot of other posts that don't provide any usable information either.

You know what? I'm not sure now. I could've sworn I read an article saying there was, now the only reference I find is for T-Mobile S7's getting a performance update.
I was on rooted stock PI2 and accidentally said OK to the OTA and it sent my phone into bootloop. Had to start from scratch.

New update to Essential Services on playstore now, 2nd October.
Anybody know what the Services are for?
Edit: Says Bug and performance fixes. Maybe firmware related?
I just got my essential phone off of swappa and it's running build "NMI75B test-keys". For some reason I am unable to update any system apps via the play store while on this build. Camera, Essential Resources, and Essential Services are all showing updates available, but every time I've tried to download them I get error code 505. I think there is something with this test build firmware that is preventing me from updating system apps via the play store. Every other app (150+) that I have installed has worked flawlessly.

Build NMI75B is not an official build from Essential. The device in reference from the XDA link is using incremental beta SW in test - 64C is the official release build at this time but we will be releasing another public SW update within the next few weeks. Stay tuned.
