Yeah I've been doing a manual check throughout the day but nowt yet, maybe later.
I'll probably do a full wipe once upgraded just so everything is nice and fresh, had afew issues doing upgrades on my Note 4 and having odd lag or battery issues.

On the beta programme and still not had the update.
Updated mine about an hour ago normal S7. (my phone was direct from Samsung as My Note 4 kept screen lifting and got this sent as a "sorry") . My God settings galore. Take a while to get to grips. Like the resolution changer and device maintenance. Phone is really really snappy.
Me too, mine is XEU and no update. I've checked manually. I'm not sure but think it's only BTU receiving the update currently.
I thought mine was BTU as it was bought unlocked. Checked it out and it's XEU
What the heck is that all about? Guess I'll maybe have a wait? So what is the difference between BTU ad XEU. Had a read on XDA and appears there are a lot of S7 owners determined to flash BTU to get the update. Not sure I want to risk bricking my S7 - if there is any risk?
I thought I'd bought an unlocked S7 from Carphone Warehouse. I they selling a different version?

I ran beta 1 for a while but flashed back to BTU a couple of weeks ago. Just updated to N7 and it's like a whole new phone. Buttery smooth.
Didn't install Google keyboard this time though, so the Samsung one has a lot of learning to do.
But using chrome either, Samsung Internet is much faster. Is there an ad blocker that works?

Samsung browser has a adblocker plugin

Any ideas? Don't seem to be able to set a default email app. Not sure if that could be why?

Nougat come through to my unlocked S7 now.
If you're waiting for 'N' and UK then Nougat firmware can be downloaded from link below and flashed via Odin (I think )

I've not tried it. Not got Nougat yet on my XEU S7 and hopefully won't be long. That said Samsungs 'won't be long' could be a good deal longer than my definition
Anyone who has got N - any issues?

I've still not got the non beta update. 
I take it you guys are getting the same as this right?
In the Galaxy Beta app it just says 'server error, try again later'
and in the Samsung Members app it says 'Your Samsung account or device is not registered with Galaxy Beta Programme. Make sure that both are registered then try again.'
I know the beta has ended, but I wanted to make sure I had deregistered. Its it ok to uninstall the apps?

Not had it yet on the XEU models - doesn't seem to have been released yet.
