I believe it is just security patches

I got it this morning, too.

No reason to be sad that you got security patches. With everything that's been going on, I want my phone as secure as possible. I'm glad Samsung and Verizon are basically doing a monthly patch of the S7 line. Shows they want to keep the phones secure.

I'm getting wierd page redraw issues with Nova launcher since this update

Software Update?

Did anyone take the software update out of the box? I am a bit leery to, not sure what version it is and what it fixes...

I didn't even had a software update when I got mine a couple of days ago.

The day after I bought the phone, I saw it reboot out of the corner of my eye and noticed it was updating. I have never found info on what the update was for, but I rarely see an update automatically apply without user interaction unless it's some kind of emergency update (like to fix reception or something). It definitely applied the update without my authorization. I didn't even see a prompt.

I did not receive an update in the US on At&t either. I did manual check and it noted I was up to date.
I also agree it is quiet in here. I think this phone should be getting a lot more interest than what it is. There is a lot of potential here.
Got an update today...

Can someone check to see if rolling back to KK would be an option after the update?
Maybe someone who doesn't care about root try for the rest of us who are waiting for a root miracle...
still waiting for lollipop!
lollipop update is not yet available for non at&t users via odin.
I am not believing that no body can upload it for us!!

Updated last night. Phone got pretty hot. I was having a kind of increased battery drain since 5.0, but this seems to have taken care of it, as far as I can tell from just this morning.
To those who are experiencing the hotter than normal phones, are you using the supplied Fast Charger?
Mine is dead after charging overnight. When I picked it up this morning it was very hot, but couldn't get any response out of it. Taking it to a ATT Device Support Center to try and get a warranty replacement. This was the first time I had charged my phone after installing the update yesterday afternoon.
Maybe a chance the small update screwed with the fast charging somehow?
These updates are becoming more and more of a headache. I really wish they would stop just shoving these things out here before being throughly tested. And if they don't, at least they could unlock the bootloader. I'd take it from there.
I actually haven't had too much of an issue. Android system seems to be taking up less battery than before which is nice. Just to make sure I did a factory reset, cleared cache and installed everything fresh. So far battery life seems the same as before.
My battery life is better but won't know for sure until several days. I see android system taking way less %, actually android also.

Can someone test the call forwarding settings?
Phone app > Settings > more settings > call forwarding
I'm interested in seeing if the 'SIM or network error' is still happening after that update. I updated to the 5.0.1 and it broke forwarding, and thus my gear S...so I rolled back to kitkat last night and it's happy again.
My heartrate sensor keeps lighting up on its own after the update.

Unfortunately it's still showing "Network or SIM error". It wasn't fixed with the OC4/5.0.1 update.
Not really a big deal but did this happen to any one else after the update?

Happened once when going from KK to Lollipop. It eventually came back a week later.

Issues with unofficial MM on ATT

Well, someone had to start this... I know it's not their final release and I am not complaining..!
Been running MM for a few hours.
First issue is with Amazon Prime Videos. Have noticed that downloaded movies can judder and freeze, then BT disconnects. Anyone else seen that?

How do you know that? I thought it was possible that this is the build that will soon go out OTA.
Well it wasn't sent as OTA. So I'm not sure

Samsung Pay allows payment cards to be added, but Android Pay refuses because it says it is unable to verify that your device or the software running it is Android compatible...

I noticed there was an Android Pay update this morning. Do you know whether Android Pay works with the new MM following the Android Pay update?
for my normal day to day tasks no issues here yet. loaded up samsung pay and no issues. didnt even try androidpay

I did the update earlier - Still no go.
I've been running MM for about 15 hours now with no issues. Have not tried Android pay yet, but everything else works without any discernible problems. In fact: Android wear works better now than it did before; whereas on 5.1 it would constantly disconnect, now it doesn't even have a single problem.
Android Pay is no go here also.
Samsung Pay seems to be working.
With new loyalty cards feature added... it's not officially time to ditch Android Pay. It was disappointing since the day they launched
Neither Android nor Samsung pay support my bank but my experience with MM so far has been great. It feels like a brand new phone.
i have been running it for about 30 hours and have not had any major issue. the only minor issue I see is in the messaging app. if you hit the back button to exit out of a conversation and go back to you message list, it exits out of the messaging app all together. other than that, my phone is running twice as fast as it was before. my Bluetooth issues seem to be better as well.
After updating to Marshmallow, I can't seem to have my text messages preview on my status bar; that is, I do not see any words besides the little text icon. Is anyway else having this problem? I have ENABLED "MESSAGE PREVIEW" in the settings within the app, but still no go. Maybe I used package disable pro, disabling an app that interferes with it? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
Just tested Android and Samsung Pay. Both worked for me.
The only thing I may have done different was I shutdown my device. Entered recovery(power+home+volume up) and cleared my cache.
When I rebooted my cellular data connected to 4G instead of Edge and it detected new updates for the bloatware lol. Worth a try if you need Android Pay.
Just tried a few minutes of movie in Prime Videos and no issues here, Android Wear stayed connected too.

Yep, now that loyalty cards are in Samsung pay, I can now disable Android Pay completely. I have to say Samsung knocked it out of the park with their reverse engineering magnetic strips to allow our phones to work with the older technology.
-----------------
A non-issue, or bonus, is that my battery life has increased a good 30-40% with this update - and thats without using package disabler pro.

Security updates

I've noticed that I no longer get the updated automatically and have to manually update the security update on my phone. No big deal, but on DP4 there's no page where they house the updates. So either the is no Aug security update or I'm stuck on July's. Anyone else have this problem? Would love to know it's not just me and my awful luck.

Lol well, that explains it. I'm a moron. I did see that the final update might be releasing next week though. So that's good

Does the July security update fix the slow to wake up issue introduced in June?

Still on May update, never upgraded to June because of this issue. Does the July update fix it?

Has anyone pulled the update by manually clicking "Check for Updates"? I have hit it multiple times throughout the day as recently as 15 minutes ago and still saying I'm up to date on June. Is this busted again?

I just looked around some more online and found others complaining of the same thing. Perhaps it's working for some but definitely not all. Just hit it again, still nothing.
Hate to hijack the thread, but this is as good a place as any to ask this really simple question of mine:
How do I update to the latest July patch if I'm still on stock May, but rooted with Magisk & Xposed enabled? I'm assuming I can just flash the full factory image zip with fastboot (disabling -w to avoid wipe) and just making sure to remove Magisk/Xposed before hand.

Yeah you can for sure do that when you flash the factory image it will remove magisk and xposed for u.

Thank you for the confirmation. I assumed it would do that, but I'll probably do it myself to make sure nothing goes wrong in the flashing process.
Still slow after July update.

I tried to report the issue to google chat support but those people are useless outside of processing RMAs. 2 different reps told me the update isn't out yet bc it's dated the 5th and had no idea hitting the check for updates button overrides the staged rollout. Ugh.. I reported the issue on the pixel community board so let's see if that gets any traction.

I side loaded it using ADB. For some reason, it takes several days for the update to get to me in June (when prior updates worked after running "check for update").
I think delay is still present in july build as confimred by some users, so i will stay with May Build till now(waiting for fix).
I am still waiting for the July updates....

Exactly the same here, thats so odd.. I wonder what is the cause of this, cuz some people got it pretty much instantly when Google released the update.
