**** The Official Samsung Galaxy S7/Edge Thread ****

[V_R]

As above, sign me up for a 5.5" flat too!

Screen size and battery swung it for me too.

What the hell is this "screen overly detected" message showing up, this is infuriating.

I've been getting that for a while now.

For me, it was mostly linked to FB Messenger - if I closed that then it would 9/10 resolve the issue

 

[Ol!ver]

So would I ... Samsung need to get over this edge gimmick crap but I cant see it happening.

It doesn't provide me with any additional functionality whatsoever, but my god does it look lovely. The regular S7 just looks bland at the side of it.

Totally Agree!

Anyone found spare usb cables that actually work for more than a week? I've had a couple of so called genuine ones but they never work for file transfer and the charge time (while it works) is utter dire.

I've got some Anker braided ones that have worked a treat and look like they'll last longer than the phone.

My anker braided one just died one day.

I have a non braided one, still going strong though.

Is there a way to block unwanted incoming sales calls number?

 

[chroniclard]

Have a look on eBay mate. Search s7 EE unlock code, sort by lowest price, check unlock time (can vary from 6 hours to 5 days)

Thanks, never thought about the bay. Having a look.

Yes just go into the call settings/Call blocking

 

[cu3ed]

Thanks, one last thing, there was a handy little pop up menu that came up when I swiped up from the bottom of the screen, seems to have stopped working, could have changed something, any ideas?

Anyone else on the Nougat beta experiencing wildly inaccurate GPS results? Seems to be a few threads for it in the beta forums, so it certainly looks Nougat-related.

I get it when I have twilight running, have you any sort of blue light filter on?

 

[cu3ed]

No nothing, seems to just be a long running bug for lots of people, what's worse is it does nothing to tell you what's doing it.

Did Manchester to London and back last weekend using Google maps and latest beta, worked a treat. Not a single issue.

Not sure if it helps but my GPS was all over the place yesterday lunchtime, back to normal since. But I'm not on Nougat.

gps was same for me as well, lost it a couple of times for 5 mins a piece around 10 in the morning, was fine in the afternoon, I am not on nougat either.

Anyone any clue?, really starting to think I imagined it being there.

There is no swipe up popup menu, only swipe in from the sides (Edge Panel features). Swipe up = an iOS thing.

Well it must have been something I installed, if you hit the middle there was like a small rocket thing, seemed to be an on the spot memory cleaner, brightness control torch switch and volume control.
