G955USQU1AQEF Update - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S8+ Guides, News, & Discus

Come through my phone last night, mentioned Bixby changes which always scares me. somebody install it first lol

Here you go. Probably has the Bluetooth fixes in tow that they pushed out for other areas of the world amongst the usual security/performance updates.

I’ve installed it. The usual, maybe placebo effect, but it feels smoother. My Antutu score went up about 10K.

Fixed the device being uncertified in Google Play.

There is definitely a performance increase. Much much smoother.

What bothers me is they pushed the May security update. June's security patch was sent out publicly on Monday. WTF.

Anyone notice if this update did anything to fix audio stuttering over bluetooth connected speakers and headphones?

Couldn't tell you as I never had this happen. I use Bluetooth audio every day. What system are you connected to?

Think I figured it out. I didn't use my usual troubleshooting steps because I was following everyone else's threads and issues. I neglected to try audio wired as well as with alternate music apps. So after trying several different headphones (wired and bluetooth) as well as various bluetooth speakers, I was able to narrow it down to a specific app that was the issue (Power Amp). I cleared the cache and data for the app and now all is A-OK. Classic case of user error I guess?

Eh, wouldn't necessarily say it was user error but it certainly was in your hands. Glad you got it fixed. [emoji1438]*

Unable to turn on bluetooth sometimes?

I haven't seen anybody create a thread about this, but has anyone not been able to enable their bluetooth without rebooting their device? I'll hit the bluetooth toggle in the settings and it just shots off right away. I'm not exactly sure what's causing it but I'm hoping that it's just a software issue since I use A2DP to listen to music.
EDIT: I performed a Factory Reset, I'll let you guys know if this problem still occurs.

Yeah same here, had that a while ago.. it happened after I used bluetooth for a while then switched it off, and then when I tried switching it on again after about 10-15 mins it wouldnt switch on. Had to reboot before it worked again..
Hope there's a software fix soon!

Would you recommend a factory reset?
I've had this happen occasionally on my N4, have to reboot in order to enable BT again. I'm guessing a software bug to be fixed in a future update. I doubt a factory reset will cure the problem.
Had this happen yesterday. I figured it was the nfc tag getting triggered too many times in the car mount? Simple reboot fixed it though.

happens to me to. BT won't come on and need to reboot phone to fix issue.
i only use BT while driving as my music streams from the N4.
It's prob a software bug. i wonder if there's a service that we could kill that may get it to work again with rebooting.
Same here. Reboot fixes the issue for me.

First issue with my N4 I've experienced is this - happened just now and came looking to see if I was the only one. Normally I have alogcat installed, but hadn't gotten around to it yet. Next time it happens I'll fire it up and see if there's any useful messages or not If I get any info from it I'll share it here.

Extreme Bluebooth Battery Draining

I just got my G2 less than two weeks ago. At first, the battery life was great, but in the past couple of days, it's been absolutely awful. Can't get a whole day with a single charge, which I could easily do with heavy use in the beginning. And I've read some threads about it being false reporting because of KK etc, but this definitely not false reporting. Others had theirs at like 4-5%, but this is way too much. Screen:
Stock KK, rooted with IOroot and using 2 Xposed modules: G2 Xposed and G2 Tweaksbox.
I really hope someone can help me out, this is really frustrating.

Nope, it's completely off. I only used it for a couple of file transfers like 2 days ago and turned it off, that's it. I think that's when the battery started draining...

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?
Sent from my SM-G935P using XDA-Developers mobile app
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.

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.

[Ls997]Has ANYONE found a stock zv7 base rom+kernel without Bluetooth issues?

I love my phone and I appreciate the devs who make roms for it, but these Bluetooth issues are KILLING me. I have three android wear watches and it's so frustrating that they constantly stop working because of Bluetooth issues and my headphones do the same. Help!

Strange, it is working perfectly for me.
I got an update last week on my T715 and it works fine except the auto brightness is a bit mental. It keeps going bright and then dull about every 5 seconds.
I've flashed the latest build, TWRP and Magisk. Til now no problems.

Same. I also did a massive debloat. Interestingly I find that if you uninstall the Samsung music app the rom will not load.

After a strange start, my brightness seems to have calmed down now.
Wonder if these roms have some sort of calibration thing going on when they first load?
