Sure seems like it. I have a Battery section in my settings now, sure didn't on the Beta.

If you select "View as simplified list" in the settings menu then there is a "Device Maintenance" entry. It seems like it's just a category for four other settings pages, so not sure if it provides the same functionality as before.

Samsung Pay can be dowloaded from Galaxy Apps (in your Samsung folder in app drawer)

You can easily get this back and many other international features using this.

Fonts for AT&T Galaxy S4 ?

Hey guys,
I can not find any fonts working on galaxy s4.. Is there any fonts available for galaxy s4?
I would like to have "Tahoma" font..
Please help..
Thanks in advance
Edit ::
Thanks zsig For This Awesome Find :::::
zsig said:
Ok, I managed to install custom fonts on my phone.
Here's how to:
1) Install the app iFont (from the google Play Store)
2) Run the app (it should create a folder on your files) and then close it
3) Place your custom font .apk file on the root of that folder
4) Run iFont again, select the "Local" tab. Your font should be there. Select it and tap "Set".
The app will require you to reboot your phone. When you do, it's done.

Generally you need to have root access and then you can drop any fonts you want to have available on the phone in the /system/fonts folder

I'm having the same thing. Even the FlipFont packs from Play Store won't work! Including the ones you are directed to by the "Get fonts online" button!

I have a Sprint GS4 and was just searching for an answer for this because i have the same problem on the Sprint GS4. It just says this font is unavailable. I saved a bunch from my SGS3 and none of thek work. I even tried ones from the play store.

I am using a international (singapore) version of galaxy s4 and i also have the same problem. Flip fonts gets installed correctly but couldn't use it.
Just for the info, my set also uses the same qualcomm chipset and not the exonys version.
Fonts wont work
Every font I've tried to install on my Galaxy S 4 hasn't work. Please let us know if anyone has a solution!!
So I've started a conversation with Samsung Support about the issue. They said they are going to research it and get back to me soon. It took forever for them to understand what I was trying to say! I'll keep you guys posted on any new info they give me. Makes no sense why it was so effortless with the GS3 and Note 2, but it gives us a problem on the S4!

Exactly, it worked great on my S3!! Thanks for keeping us updated.
So they replied and judging by their answer they were able to replicate the problem and will be forwarding the issue to be addressed. Here's the link to the Facebook messages!

I am having the same issue too. Hope to see Samsung's favourable reply and fix soon! Wanted to have more options of fonts.
Just a quick update guys, i did install some fonts from samsung apps and guess what it can be used without any font not available issues?
Samsung took out the bookmark sync options, now fonts also works only from samsung apps store. Are they forcing us to use their app store rather than google play?

Always On Display got really dark lately

I have auto-brightness and battery saving disabled, but for some reason Always On Display just gets really dark either immediately after locking the device, or after few seconds. This hasn't been the case for over a month I've owned the phone, so wondering if this is a new version of AOD issue (1.1.22)?
Anyone has a fix or more information on the subject?
Can you uninstall the update and see if it goes back to the way it was. Samsung may be trying to reduce battery use by AOD.

Is there a way to roll back the Always On Display to an earlier version? How can I do that?
Yes, it's the latest version of AOD that does this. Now that the reviews of the S7/Edge are all done, Samsung can finally update their phones to their intended versions

If you go into the Application manager, and find AOD, you should be able to uninstall it, which will revert to the original version.

OMG, I had the same thought. Bait customers with glowing reviews then **** up the software & battery life with subsequent "updates." Is Samsung getting paid by Apple to gimp their phones? Samsung really sucks at software.

How do you stop this auto updating? There is no option under auto update Samsung Galaxy apps to disable it. Only under auto update apps is there an option to turn it off.

I think the first one only applies if the second one is set to on.

One updates the Galaxy Apps app itself, the second - all other apps downloaded through the Galaxy Apps. So turning off the second one is enough to disable the auto update for AoD.
@optimummind I'm really happy with the new update. The previous versions where way to light to actually use for me. This was also a complaint of a lot of people. So instead of what you say they actually listen..

Samsung S Planner

Hi, I installed a Nougat custom rom and I am missing S Planner planner application.
Can anyone extract it and send it to me please?
Thank you!!

Yes and no.. It is not renamed but replaced. Even if it is from Samsung, it in fact is a new application and not an new version AFAIK. Also it does not come installed by default but instead needs to be installed manually from Galaxy Apps

I themed S Planner in Theme Editor on MM. When I went to Nougat and applied my theme, Calendar was themed identically and automatically, I didn't do a thing.
If there are any differences between the apps they're negligible. From what I see, only the icon!
At least one thing has changed... 's Planner's Date icon showed the actual date on Nova Prime. Calendar's icon doesn't..

Nougat Device Maintenance on Verizon?

Did Verizon take out the damn device maintenance? If so, why the hell do they do this crap. Come on Verizon. Stop taking features that are supposed to be built into our phones away and putting in junk.

The options are in the setting menu already, however the ultra usefull app that let you just hit Optimize Now is gone. I had a shortcut already on my homescreen and it just says app not installed when I try to launch.
It's a ****ing shame that VZW decided to pull that out. One of the most useful tools on the device.

Why would it be called "torch"? That's what british people call it. Here in the US, they're called "flashlights". And on a phone, it should always be called flashlight, because you're literally using the camera's flash as a light.
that isn't the only omission, the mark as read and quick reply buttons from the message notification are gone also.

this works thank you, damn verizon just hide it, but it doesnt let you clear your ram or add to home screen or stop the programs.

Samsung Keyboard Themes

Just saw that Samsung added different keyboard themes (4 of them) 2 dark and 2 light one with keyboarders and one without of each color! I'm guessing its a Samsung Experience 9.5 feature i didn't see the option on the Note 8 or S9.
Can be found under Settings> General Management> Language and Input> On Screen keyboard> Samsung Keyboard> Keyboard Layout and Feedback
Thanks for the tip, I haven't noticed that before:good:
I also like resizing and handwriting feature. Unparalleled.
:good: cool thx.
Is it even more color?
