Feels smoother and faster. Ram management looking good so far. Well see in long run...

Just got the update, seemed to fix the issues I was having. (chrome is still meh, but I'm pretty sure that's just an app update that's needed) Really surprised Sprint got this out so quickly.

I received it to and I was rooted with non knox trip, but root is gone. I have not tried new root yet. I will let rom settle and see what happens.

Better calls

Build number was updated. Most of us were having modem issues such as dropping calls so Samsung gave us this update to take care of that. It was a software problem. I got the same update. Thanks. It was 128MB.

I'm shocked Sprint was the first to push the update. I'm on tmobile and flashed the international update and didn't notice any difference, but I haven't really had any issues to begin with.

Sorry, Actually even though it breaks it can it be redone or does it not allow you to do it anymore?

Does not allow it to work anymore. It will ask you to subscribe.

Does ping-pong root still work?

Just got it at as well. Glad to see Sprint / Samsung staying on top of things.

was anyone able to pull the update!?

Does it solve the RAM issue and standby issue?

Fyi. Twrp doesn't work on new update. Had to flash back.

Earlier today I had a crash of the radios and shortly thereafter android. I had to reboot to get back up and running with cell service. I had just installed the update a few hours previous. Hopefully it was just a fluke.
Anyone know if the update was software only or if it included an updated radio? I forgot to check versions. I assume only android software.

Haven't found a change log anywhere....BUT my battery drain isn't nearly as bad before the update ftw

I've always had pretty good battery life, but my data reception at work was terrible before the update. Not sure if an update radio was included since i didnt check before, but my signal has become much much better since the update.

Try pulling it up. There should be a refresh button. I had to hit that to get it to work. But then it's just annoying me so I turned it off.

It's OK I've sorted it!!
To fix this issue...
Make sure everything is updated to the latest version including Facebook App (I say that because mine is and it's now fixed)
Open the Facebook app and, via Account -> Log Out
Lock your phone
Swipe the Facebook ticker and you should get the message "You need to be logged in to use this" or something like that
Click log in and allow the Samsung Galaxy app the permissions it requires
Should be fixed!
Please not I'm not a developer, this is my first android phone and I've had it for two days, so I won't be able to answer any technical questions however I figured it would be a Facebook permissions problem and using a bit of trial and error and a bit of common sense I've fixed MY issue. This might not work for YOUR issue.
I hope so though

I'm going to avoid it in case they patched something. So far it seems you can avoid it by staying off of WiFi.

If you go in to system updates through the settings and check for the update, you have 3 options, No Thanks, Download Later, and Download Now.
If you click No Thanks, the alert goes away. It will even state in the system update app that the last update (on June 30th, 2105) failed.
Download later allows you to choose a time that better suits you.
And of course Download Now, starts the process right now.
Hope this helps.
When i go to system update all i have is update now or later. I don't get the no thanks option.

I didn't get any pop up notifications. I was on WiFi and it just started downloading by itself.
Just downloaded and installed software changed to 11A, so far only thing ive noticed is keyboard is a lot smother so far no missed taps
Also seems to have helped with wifi issue before it was like i was on dial up, couldnt get a page to load but now i can actually use wifi
Yes, waiting to d/load it later today.
From Droid-Life:
An update is rolling out for the LG G4 on Verizon, bringing a few features to owners, but nothing all that special. The software version is labeled as VS98611A.
Included is an enhanced Folio display while a call is taking place, an updated consistency for displaying contacts and non-contacts in the Dialer app, and an enhanced Advanced Calling feature. That’s it.

I didn't have to do anything to be able to Choose "No Thanks".

If you disable Wifi are you able to click "No Thanks"?

Yes, mine's encrypted and the update worked fine.
Is this the software I been hearing about that you can't revert back to 4.4
I wonder how the battery is? I remember I had great battery on the first LP update, then a minor update came and battery went to hell..
dont notice any difference between COC4 and COC5. I dont know have the changelog but nothing noticeable. Not that I was expecting anything with such a minor update.
This is what I found
I can't update. All i can get is "Software update interrupted , software up to date please try in 24 hours". Anybody capture this update so i can push by ADB ? or any other idea ?( i push date 5 day forward and same message).
This update fixed the call forwarding issue between my note 4 and my Gear s. Before this update, going to the phone app, then settings, then call forwarding resulted in a sim card error and wouldn't let me enable it. Now, I don't get the error.

Can anyone confirm odin roll back if we take this update. Anyone?
This update fixed my issues with newly activated VoLTE service in my area. Before I was experiencing issues where my voice would not transmit for about 10 seconds or more and people could not hear me, however, I could hear them perfectly. This was frustrating in business calls. The update remedied this situation for me. No more VoLTE issues even without a factory reset.

All these scared people who want others to take every update and try it out first for them (newsflash... no 2 people have exactly the same usage patterns). I'm sure you could tell me every single time someone posted about battery life, etc and how every update has ruined someone. Those are the extreme exception take the risk let it update. Do a full cache wipe after the update, always a good idea anyways, and deal with it.
90% or more of phones that broke via update are user driven issues. "I'm rooted, I use home made charger cables, have 128 gig worth of apps installed, have my screen set to stay on full bright all day long, and keep my phone underwater, and that update is killing my battery life"

Is video calling feature??
just happened to check while sitting in a meeting.. started the update and came here for news... currently sitting at 55% so we'll see how it goes.
I think this is the longest I have ever left a phone stock and unrooted..
Hmm. Don't know if it's worth to unroot for this..
Xtrestolite 2.3 has live streaming and app/people edge... As for the icons I use Nova with an icon pack...
Xtrestolite has a video calling too but don't know if it will work.. Never worked for me before...
Only reason I'm not using xtrestolite is don't have VoLTE and WiFi calling... ? ? ?
Very nice update low ram usage and best performance than cof8
Live broadcast is available via the camera app...

With all the problems and loss of features and functionality relating to root, stock appears to be the right choice for me at present, never owned a device for this long (4+ months) without root but with the smooth functionality and super battery life I'm getting, root is something from the past that's not going to hold back or disable my phone.
Great job Samsung. :thumbup:

Another OTA update.

Just got a notification for a new update on my phone. I'm already on 24c. Downloading now
Update: now on 25a
Hope this fixes the location issue and also the other weird things.
From the VZW website:
Software Version: VS98625A
Verizon Wireless is pleased to announce a new software update for your LG G4.
This update provides faster display response from a sleep state, and the latest Android security updates.
I just installed this latest ota. We'll see what this fixes.
Sent from my VS986 using Tapatalk
he fixes our always a pleasure
Can anyone confirm if WiFi notifications for google apps still work on this 25a?
I remember they broke that in 13A and had to wait 2+ months for 13B to fix it.
I have 24c now and they are working so I'd like to know if they still work in 25a before I take it.
Not sure what the wifi notifications bug is.
Sent from my VS986 using Tapatalk
102.4mb. Has to be something in there besides a few security updates. I hope...
Here is a thread about the notifications bug that was in 13A but I'll summarize it.:
After we got 13A when I was on WiFi I wouldn't get any push notifications from google services (gmail, hangouts, etc.) as well as some other ones as well. As soon as I turned off WiFi or left my house and it went to 4G I got flooded with all the notifications. A number of smart people figured out it had something to do with companies that push notification over IPV6 vs IPV4. Eventually after 2 months 13B was released and all the notifications worked again over WiFi.
So if you can get a push notification about a new gmail or hangout while on WiFi on 25A then I'll assume it works and they didn't break it and all is good with 25A.
Apparently I can't post a link to the site because it says I'm too new (just 2 posts). If you google: "vs98613B wifi notification" without the quotes the thread is the 2nd one that comes up. It is on the verizon forum called: "LG G4 update breaks notifications!"
I've noticed that there is no longer a notification on the pulldown telling you what wifi network you're connected to.

Sent from my VS986 using Tapatalk
Can someone please let me know if it fixes the display not turning on. I had to go back to 13b cause of that problem. I'd hate to update and not be able to downgrade.
I'm doing the update as I type this.
When WiFi is off it prompts to turn it on with an "improve location" notification.
It also hides multiple notifications with a single status bar icon. I believe cm had a setting for this, not sure what it's called, I dislike it a lot.
It definitely wakes quicker.
Is it just me or is the slide down notification drawer smoother or something? It seems....different.
Scrolling within apps seems smoother.
Sent from my VS986 using Tapatalk
I took the update after a buddy tried it and still got WiFi notifications from hangouts. I'll confirm the push notification while on WiFi are still working, as well as agree that it wakes faster and scrolling within apps that used to be choppy after the 6.0 update are back to being smooth. Not sure about the other issues mentioned (LED and screen not working) as I didn't have those problems so they both seem fine now.
