Text messaging problem.

It seems as if anytime someone texts me, and there is a message being sent at the same time, the sent message fails and i have to hit retry on it. Im not sure if this happens on stock roms, but definitely happens on custom roms. Is there anyway to fix this?

Me too. I thought it was a radio issue because my signal at home sucks. I just sold my MDK S4 and bought the N3 and the signal difference at home is very noticeable.

My note 3's signal is also atrocious, much worse than my thunderbolt and note 2 were in the same location. I can barely get a signal from my home. My service also seems to be even worse with wifi on. I am actually just about to make a thread to discuss these issues

all we can hope is the kitkat update brings a new baseband and better signal

I hope so. I just made a thread showing how it is possibly a software issue, at least in my case:

Sprint S7 & S7 Edge Nougat 7.0 beta program is Open

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

Finally!

FYI-You have to wipe data or get constant reboots

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.

Is there a way to keep the phone's screen from coming on when a text message comes in?

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.

Anyone else has 4G icon randomly appear when connect to wifi?

As the title. Does your AT&T Samsung s7 edge get the random 4G signal appear when on WiFi? Only happens with home wifi and it's super annoying. Never happened on t-mobile s7 edge. Any suggestions?

It happens to me sometimes. I found that restarting your device fixes it. I haven't been noticing my data being used bc of it but I'm does worry me sometimes! Hope this helped!

Horrible Signal now with Nougat

Since I took the update my signal, especially in home is abysmal.
I am getting nothing..And never had this issue before..
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do?
Sent from my SM-G935T using XDA-Developers Legacy app

Go back to mm.

Mine has been way better. If you just upgraded, even from the beta, then that is most likely the reason. You must do a factory reset for best results after a big upgrade.

I would do a 2nd reset and see how the signal does stock with nothing installed and make sure your apn is correct.

Believe it or not I have had to factory reset twice before. It shouldnt matter but phones are funny some times.

So I just had my wife's Phone, exact same phone next to mine...We both ran speed tests...She got over 50...I got around an 8.
I think something is wrong...I did flash thru Odin..
I came from U firmware...Could that have anything to do with it?
Does anyone have link to full Nougat for Odin...With radios and all.

I upgraded ota from MM. I didn't do a factory reset. Signal isn't better or worst. It's the same. Tmobile here is weird. I can get insane speeds on one side of the street, and next to nothing on the other side. Crazy.

Mine is too. WiFi calling, data calling, and even my bluetooth is horrible. I can hear them but they all say that I am breaking up and this never happened in the past. Also it is in my home where my signal worked flawlessly before.

Nougat seems to have fixed mine. I was having horrible disconnects between towers. That's all fixed now.

everything is working great. fone is little faster. I got issue in calling after update, its only allowing emergency call. After a restart that is resolved. so far so go.

I've noticed something cool with Bluetooth audio. Before you could set the volume of the phone and the Bluetooth device separately. I noticed that when I turned the volume up on the phone the soundbar volume indicator was going up. So I pulled up the volume slider on the phone and started adjusting the volume using my soundbar remote. The slider on the phone started moving by itself. It seems to me now the phone adjusts itself to the speaker volume.

Factory Firmware or Unbranded ?

can anyone upload the update here? so i can manualy update mine. im outside usa..thankyou

Does anyone know if this is available with SmartSwitch - specifically without SIM in? My son is using my old s7 edge without an active SIM, would love to avoid having to deal with popping out the SIM from my s9+ to pull down the update for him, but if I have to, so be it.
At least the s7 edge is getting updates.

Just a FYI since I've seen others ask how to turn that off...
You can disable it in Bluetooth Settings (along with Ringtone volume as well). Go into Bluetooth Settings and click the 3-dots at the top right for "Media Volume Sync" or "Phone ringtone sync" while the device is connected.

Do you have an AT&T sim card installed? If not, that's why. You could always try to update using Smart Switch.

Ok. The unlocked firmware is still only on 7.0. If it's still at&t and using a T-Mobile SIM it won't register an update. The servers won't accept any device not using an att sim.

The only way around it is to use Odin. But that will wipe your phone. Do you have any friends or family that use att?
