As stated by others, I can confirm app edge is included in this update.

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:

Agreed to a degree. Being able to install tibu and clean up is essential. Not to mention unikernel is amazing. Then now with the ability to add xposed, there's many benefits.

Off Topic: Root waiting room

OK, Here you guys can talk about what you miss about root or current conspiracy theories (Is he a troll or isn't he?). You can talk about the latest movies, the plots of Gotham or The Flash, your cat or dog...whatever you want within the rules..meaning behave and be nice. We can change the title of the thread once you hopefully get root. So let the Root Progress thread be for those subscribed to root talk, and let it be a more on topic thread...you guys got this thread...and who said you can't have nice things? You can if you take care of them. Have fun all!!!!

Maybe you need to do a factory reset. As For me no issues at all battery life is awesome here with no root yet i get about 1 day 4hrs on battery life and sot about 4hrs and half.

It was a pain over an hour to set everything back up
I will add after factory reset it said SD ext was damaged

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.

Yep so i got the notification this morning on my un-rooted s6. Since i have a poor signal i decided to update and see if my signal will improve. Will see how it goes as my day wears on...
Maybe it's placebo, but it does seem to help with scrolling and touch screen responsiveness. Since I purchased this phone, that has been a sore spot for me, especially coming from the M8 which is incredibly smooth and responsive.
Also this update adds a new app, Samsung+. Most of you will disable this like I did.
I checked for the update manually and got it first try.
just curious, does this fix the voicemail bug? It's showing I have 2 voicemails, but when I call voicemail there is nothing there.
I've checked with the Sprint VoiceMail app, and by calling and there are no messages.

Heck that has been happening ever since I got the phone. Terrible multitasking, RAM management, jumpy scrolling right out of the box. I've been terribly disappointed with this phone.
With that said, 5.1.1 update has made things a little smoother on my phone. Battery is still crap and RAM is still jacked, but it does seem a little smoother.
The worst part is seeing the folks in the unified development forum singing the praises for the xstereolite ROM and how good it is on battery, knowing us Sprint users are on the outside looking in.
I am also disappointed 5.1.1 didn't fix the glaring issues with this phone. The 2 new Nexus' are shaping up to be killer. Might have to get y first ever sock Android phone soon if Sammy doesn't get their shizzz together..

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.

@Venom0642

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"

General OOS 11.2.6.6 Release : What are your opinions about it.

Sorry If there's already some talks about that on different topics, but I find easier to talk about this latest release on a centralised one.
My findings are that Oplus updated the gamebar which now takes more onscreen space, but is now easier to use
The second one is a real thermal behavior change : I used to flash Omega Kernel on 11.2.5.5 and quickly the o+ 9Pro stabilized under 42/43°C . On the latest OOs build with stock kernel, I'm now @ 37-38°C after 30 min of playing the same game. 5-6 degres gained is pretty a good upgrade.
I'll check what are the photo behavior changes as I've done few reproductible raw photos to test, and see how the white balance upgrades are this week end

I deeply can't say that comparing two different iteration of kernel. But it appears to me O+ finally made some progress concerning power and heat behaviour.
I will for sure flash omega kernel as I did with every releases, but I'm happy to see that vanilla stock kernel is working better than ever
My battery life dramatically improved with the .6.6 update. Granted the phone is still new for me, but I went from ~4h SOT every day to 6h+ yesterday

I'm running Omega, but I was running omega before so although I'm sure Omega helps battery, it was still not great before the update. The new changes he made to reduce watermarking may have been a factor, and I also disabled RAM optimization in Oneplus settings which I'm pretty sure helped.

He said OP contacts apk, meaning he downloaded it as an apk himself, all came with only google contact preinstalled.
Pretty good
Guess I'm going to have to give Omega a try then after I update looks like the new update is worth it finally
I dont know ... I still get some sketchy network connections.. All of a sudden, I'll get 10 notifications at once.
Camera .. still have a focus issue. Certain areas are perfectly focused and others are not sharp. Like a bokeh effect.

The notification thing is most likely due to Oneplus's "Intelligent control" for battery saving. It may be "optimizing power usage" too aggressively for your apps. Go to the power settings for each app with the issue individually and change it to "do not optimize" to ensure you get notifications on time
