Just got this OTA update this morning, the main thing I've noticed is that Facebook is now pre-installed, i don't use it, so why is Samsung adding more bloatware?

Taken on original 7.0 update. I'm almost certain that Facebook is preinstalled since I have no option to uninstall.
I'm now wondering if it was pre installed on MM and I automatically disabled it, but when I updated to 7.0 it never mentioned Facebook, but this update must have re-enabled it again

Depends which country you are in, ive never had a problem with it here in the UK, its always worked, but as the instructions below state, its country specific:
Upon reading this thread I manually checked for update and it popped up, didn't specify any changes but I can confirm it did add Facebook, how annoying

Like I said, ive never had a problem, its always worked on every version of android since 6.0.1, and 7 and now also with the lastest update.
However, you are in Israel with BTU (Europe) firmware, thats why its not working for you, like I said and the screen shot says, its country specific, "This service is not available in other countries"
did the update... still not happy with the battery ... stock phone... i get almost an hour less sot!!! if i remember samsung said something for 30% better battery??!!! lol... i ll wait for an update again... of they dont fix it i guess that ill go back to mm
It wasn't released worldwide, even if is official for some devices I believe nougat is still in test mode for samsung

Yes just click tab button and on the bottom left should be a button for secret mode while the right has button for regular new tab. It's really convenient and useful especially since it has fingerprint lock on it. Love it.

It seems like it's firmware specific issue. Have you tried to update/flash different roms to see if the issue still persists? Maybe the dev disabled too many things and it's causing incompatibilities.

It seems that after the update to internet browser 5.0 (that brought new UI) there is no more private mode.
I think secret mode uses Knox
@waterdaan Perhaps it's something introduced in Internet browser v5, as it worked fine with v4 and I was rooted already.

Get ready, you know the drill (assuming is the same as last year for the S6) stock BTU ROM and Beta application installed, get ready to register your device and we should hace the beta soon (hopefully)
"Server error, please try again later" when accessing the "Registration" menu item from the Galaxy Beta Program...
Edit: You probably need a BTU (aka UK unbranded) ROM. I am too lazy to install one right now, but good luck to those who will. Please don't forget to report on battery life and AOD 3rd party notifications support

Same. Though ill flash the first official update after the beta for sure.
@developers: Would it be feasible to create a flashable ROM from this beta firmware? Thanks
Judging by how stable and snappy all the current Note 7 port ROMs are, I'm pretty sure this beta will be awesome

Basically yes, and then register your Samsung account in the beta program, but still, that's not a guarantee that you will be selected for the beta

Ah OK - So the only differences between us currently is the original carrier (EE for me) and the fact that your phone was unlocked prior to flashing.
Strange though. I thought on the S7 I typically saw the OTAs before they made an appearance on sammobile.

Since the firmware stated improve on wireless charging stability, anyone who is charging using wireless charger still encountered stop charging issue when temperature more 40°C?
Update: OK, just installed & try, still the same **** & Samsung didn't fixed it. I'm so disappointed.
Has anybody who's flashed from carrier to stock firmware been offered the OTA?
I've searched through all the threads but none answered my question. I have an S8+ with XEU/XEU/VOD and have applied for the beta.
Am I even eligible for the update/will I get it?
In recovery and the samsung info app it says that my CSC is XEU, but there is still the VOD at the end...
SOLVED: If you are not getting the Oreo update but you have registered for beta, CLEAN flash either August or September firmware (through ODIN, no KNOX tripping, both available on sammobile) and the Oreo 8.0 update will be waiting for you straight away!
