HELP! Final Nougat pooched my phone! - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers

I was on the Nougat beta, and I just updated to the new non-beta G930PVPU4BQAA.
Now my phone reboots itself after a minute or less of use. I can get as far as my home screen, but soon after it just restarts.
I tried safe mode, but same thing.
It might be because I had disable some apps with Package Disable, and forgot to re-enable them and/or disable admin on that app ... I seem to remember reading this might cause issues. I also have My Knox installed, if that makes a difference.
I also had some theme installed.
Any way to fix, or do I have to factory reset?

Try booting recovery and clearing cache

Fingerprint scanner completely stopped working

I have a stock rooted Galaxy s5. For a while now the fingerprint scanner would stop reading fingerprints (nothing would be detected when swiped, no "no match" or "swipe faster" type errors, just no reading at all). This was always fixed by simply rebooting the device. That was until now. After encountering that error again I rebooted the phone. Now it appears to scan the fingerprint but won't match. I've tried all three of the fingers I have registered with the same results. I also can't access the fingerprint manager. When I try to access the fingerprint manager it won't match the fingerprints and says I have the wrong alternative password (which obviously I don't since I was able to bypass the lock screen with it). It does accept the alternate password when I tried to change the password but when I press the last "OK" to change the password it says " an error has occurred with the fingerprint sensor. If this message appears repeatedly, restart your device". I have restarted more than once.
Has anyone experienced anything similar to this? is this a defective sensor? I have unlimited data and had to use a loophole to upgrade to this phone so getting support form verizon might be a bit difficult.
finger print scanner tab s
Hello. You bet i have! Just tonight. I have a rooted samsung tab s, I was receiving the exact error messages that you speak of. Swipe slower, blah blah. Now, my tablet will not offer fingerprint scanner- it just disappeared entirely! And my alternative password says it is incorrect when I know it isnt. It doesnt give me an option to retrieve my password either! So, no fingerprint scanner, and incorrect alt password- im hooped! I cannot get into my 600$ tablet that I am currently using for online courses!
Please, if anyone can help me get into my tablet, I will forever be grateful!
I just installed lollipop, not sure if that would have anything to do with it? Another recent install was inbox gmail.
Please what can I do?
Disappointed
Stuck on my s3 for all of my homework too!
Irritated
I have same problem since 1 week.

You need to flash the aroma add-on package. From there, try to select/install an add-on that states "finger print(or something close to the term)". That's what i've done.

he said nothing about a custom rom. He is using stock rooted, so flashing an aroma add-on package will not help.

HELP! Marshmallow Update Problems! (G900T)

Hi, so I just attempted to update my t mobile Galaxy S5 (G900T) to the just released official marshmallow update using Samsung SmartSwitch, and now my phone won't boot past the t mobile logo. I have already tried the recommendations of clearing the cache and doing a factory reset with no affect. This phone is way out of warranty, so does anyone know of a way to recover or even have a link to the stock touchwiz 6.0 or even 5.1.1 flash-able roms? I don't want to install a custom ROM as I would lose the auto ISO detection functionality.
try doing a factory reset, which should allow you to use the phone.

reread the OP, I have already tried that with no affect. It's looking like I will have to flash the stock lollipop which I just found, I can't find the flash-able file for stock marshmallow.

Turn off phone remove battery for 20 secs then odin tar then boom your good

The phone booted, but I just got a bunch of boxes that say "the system UI has crashed" or "google play services has crashed"
$$$$ you tmobile! How the $$$$ can you release a such a $$$$$ update?

Lagging on 7.0

Twice in the 48 hours since I installed 7.0 (via the beta programme), I've been typing something using the stock on-screen keyboard (last time was in Chrome) when I've hit horrible lag - like 10 seconds of freezing, then it does something, then more freezing and repeat.
Anyone else?

The BEST advice if you're suffering from lags and strange issues after a major update, you should back up your data and perform a hard reset (Factory Data Reset) preferably through recovery. That will remove any remaining leftover files from the updates like backup files and the like.

hmm then try and wipe your cache and dalvik in recovery and also in the app itself. If clearing everything out maybe Fastbooting factory images when they are uploaded will reset whatever maybe corrupt.

In the recovery I have do it already. So I have entered in the stock recovery and have selected Factory reset. Factory reset will wipe everything (cache and dalvik cache too)
very smooth for me.
Maybe you need reset your device,bro

need help.. my s7 edge cant install any apps or games

after rooting and install xposed everything going fine.. instaled any apps or games.. removing bloatware.. then i power off device at night and when i power on.. it cant install anything on playstore.. (error code: -505) and cant install any downloaded apps or games from web or sd card..
any solution for this?
I'm thinking that while you were debloating your S7e, you may have deleted an app necessary for the system installer.
In the past I had an LG G4, and when I debloated it, I deleted a system app, this ended in bootloop after a system reboot.
My best advice, reinstall the latest firmware via odin and this should do the trick.
I had the exact same problem.i was starting to think it xposed wanam installer 86.1 but not 100 shure

Why does music playback glitch out when turning off the screen?

Every time I turn off the screen while music is playing , there is a short (<1s) glitch/skip/interruption in playback.
I've had this happen on both stock kernel and Veno's kernels which I am currently using, so I think we can safely assume it's not ralated to the kernel.
I tried all the usual like cache/dalvik wipe, cold booting, setting Google Music as a system app, using it as a user app and adding it the the list of protected app in Huawei's power manager, even a factory reset but nothing fixes this.
One weird thing is that for a while, this behavior stopped by itself for a few days only to come back a few days later.
Running stock b170, Meticulus TWRP, Magisk rooted, systemless Xposed, Viper4Android (via Magisk, as a system app)
Any ideas? It's bugging me like crazy.
It's from the audio drivers.

Ok, and is there a fix?
All of the sudden and without me doing anything at all, music playback no longer skips when turning off the screen. What the.
Later edit: the glitch is back.
Just a small shameless bump.
I have the same problem.

Setting my music app to not close in the close battery when locked setting under battery. That I have already tried but it's not working. My music still cuts off when I lock my phone. The widget sometimes disappear from the lock screen too.
my phone is rooted and was wondering if any app out there could prevent this annoying problem from happening...
