Flashed the Customized RU version (non-wipe) this morning. Works great, only thing i noticed is that the animation is heavier.

Any changes to volte? How's the 120 frames for cinema pro?

Waiting for US or HK (current firmware)

Still waiting in Europe

Might be a stupid question, but can you share what you used to flash it? I have an AT52, and no OTA, Xperia companion also says no update, and I never seem to have much luck with the various flash tools floating around the forums lol.

[GUIDE] Flashing a different customization on the XQ-AT51 with FlashTool | XDA Developers Forums (xda-developers.com)
This guide works like a charm, just read the full topic and you are fine.

Thanks! It worked. I do notice that all app icons on the home screens are square now. Interesting. Time to play around with it.

No 120FPS option in 4k in Cinema Pro unfortunately? I thought they stated this was added for our 1ii. Bummer.
Edit: Just found it. Turns out I am dumb lol. It is there!

One more thing I just realized: Even after several restarts, the recent app button (on the 3 button navigation bar on the bottom), does not seem to work at all.

Did it bring any screen refresh rates above 60hz? There was speculation it would although at a lower screen resolution.

Update just arrived for me
I'm unlocked UK version

That's too bad. Sony's communication about this type of thing is pretty poor

So far so good, nice update

i got it today!
but im depressed...
I like the 4k @120FPs... but i would like to see a Focusbracketing function in the PhotoProApp, and a software button for the shutter.

I got the update today (located in Germany and all stock). So far, I haven't noticed any changes. Do we have a comprehensive change log somewhere?

I got the update today in The Netherlands

Hi, me too. But I have an issue with my WiFi connection. I use a FritzBox 7590 with WPA2 + 3. With Android 10 it worked flawlessly with the new security setting but with today's update I can't use WPA3 anymore.
Does anyone have the same issue?
Cheers

Waaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh

wifi stil drops... dropping every 5-10 sec. even at sleep
fb sync not working >_<
pls help....
The slow update must be cause of their slow server.
As for wifi drops, make sure your wifi settings are made to "always on". Also the power manager mode should be in normal mode and not smart mode.
yes sir its always on even at sleep.... the power is also at normal mode even the profile...
this is my prob in the b107 til i upgraded to b118.... did not fix at all... wifi drops and fb sync not working

You too happy new year :highfive:
Good news and kinda bad news. Bad news is that there is rumor about kitkat upgrade being moved to March or April. But on the other hand the emui2.0 upgrade would be on schedule by end of January. Good news is that there is emui2.3 undergoing beta tests already and would have more exciting features and the expectation is that they would roll out Emui2.3 with kitkat.

Hi! After upgrade to b125 missed control panel.Help me!Thanks.

S7 active update

Anyone else get the update??
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using XDA-Developers mobile app
It's installing now. Any idea what is new/updated in this?
got the update biggest change was wifi calling not sure what else
Just got mine used and updated it today. Saw the wifi calling but didn't read the rest, I did notice mine was on the May security update and now it's on the July update so could be that.
They also removed all traces of the Oculus software that was originally on our devices. So no chance of getting VR support for these devices in the future then
wifi calling now available (eg wifi-only calling, BUT no wifi-only messaging so thats kinda stupid...)
activity zone 'compass mode' with 'map mode' (which never worked, only said 'google services is updating' removed
advanced messaging (separate balloon per text/attachment, and 'xxx is typing' is new)
Great news! The recent update 8/11/2016 fixed the dpi error we were getting. I was able to successfully change my dpi using the display scaling app. View attachment 3839483

Click to expand...

I checked on the official site (which just recently added the phone on the site, as I've been checking often), and they don't have any info on updates or anything posted yet.
So far I noticed: WiFi Calling and Messaging, Message Scheduling (Don't think I noticed this before), Security Update, Removal of Oculus (the setup for the full Oculus Software), Advanced Messaging for AT&T customers, and Text Counter.
If we see anything else, I'll add to this, or we can hope for release notes/ change log
Anyway i can update this without att sim? Im using cricket
Should be able to
I have the s7 active and the battery life is OK not great but ok and the update installed WiFi calling and text messaging works on WiFi
The only times I've ever had good battery life on any Android device were and continue to be from custom roms and kernels. No stock rom including stock nexus roms give me good battery life. That being said, my used S7A is actually not too bad for everything stock without root and it had better with such a big battery.
Anyone one having problem with mms video being blurry when sent to another phone. I know it's not the carrier att because my wife has an iPhone 6s and it sends the same mms video perfect. Picking brains not noses

That is likely due to compression in the SMS client you're using. I don't know what AT&T's limitations are on file size for MMS, but I do know third-party SMS apps allow for tweaking of that. I use Textra currently, and can set a max upload/send size in the options. I know other SMS apps have similar functionality, but I doubt the stock one does.
Another update today, looks to be only security fixes for Aug. I'm actually surprised they released it IN Aug and not months down the line. Lol

I'm using it cause... "auto upgrade"...
And all in all I'm ok with it but I'm experiencing one "bug" (see down below). Colors might be more saturated than before, but it's ok for me and it doesn't "hurt my eyes" as some describe it. I'm using the "natural" display mode and the display warmth slider is in the middle.
I read through the linked article a bit but it seams like the experience is very subjective or not all users experience this phenomenon or at least not as bad / strong.
-------
Since my upgrade to Android 12 I'm experiencing one quite annoying bug.
Background:
I'm using my device with the work profile to keep annoying apps at bay.
Using "Shelter" app.
Using "Aurora Store" in work profile to install apps.
No factory reset was performed since upgrade.
Not rooted.
Problem:
Since the upgrade to Android 12 I'm experiencing an quite annoying bug. Using the "phone" app (private profile) I have no sound and microphone sometimes. So I can't hear and can't be heard. If I'm activating the work profile and use the "phone" app (again from private profile) I suddenly have sound and microphone.
Fix / workaround:
Activate the work profile.
Another way to "fix" this problem is to reboot the phone.
After reboot it works for an undefined time. I haven't tested if the problem starts after using work profile and deactivating it again. I'm testing it and I'll try to not forget to post an update for others.
FYI:
If sound from other apps does work, wasn't tested until now. If you need to call you normally have no time for testing, so reboot it was for me.
Tested solutions:
Tested some general "solutions" from REDDIT & Co.
Editing settings in "Sound & vibration" -> "Audio effects": recommended -> "activate Dolby ATMOS". Phone doesn't have that so i resetted the setting (after tapping "Audio effects" tap "Settings" at the bottom then tap 3 dot menu and tap "Reset")
- DIDN'T WORK
Suggestion: it's a carrier problem
Set network selection to manual and select your corresponding network.
- DIDN'T WORK
Deactivate or activate "Wi-Fi calling". (mine was activated so I deactivated it)
- DIDN'T WORK
Enable or disable "VoLTE". (mine was activated so I deactivated it)
- DIDN'T WORK
My questions:
Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
Has anyone found a solution?
Thanks

Tab S7 One UI 4.1

Not sure if it's been let known. But the One UI 4.1 has been released for tab s7. You can download it on frija using EUX country code and flash on Odin using Home CSC to keep data. I'm at work and can't upload to another server until I get home if anyone needs it later.

Good for you. There are people who can't use OTA updates since they're root-ed/modded.

No need to be an ass.
Just posting that it was being pushed out. EU tends to get them before the US, so some will use Frija to get the new releases earlier.

Isn't the korea release for wifi 12.1? New base band on it the previous was cvg7 from memory not sure on the new base band it was dif tho. I'd still prob stick with ancient os gsi for now. I like it atm.
Just got 4.1.1. I use TotalLauncher so I won't see too much impact of the OneUI update. But..the notification bar I see. It's now scrunched up on either the right or the left side of the page. I suppose thats for being within range of a thumb. But geez this isn't a phone! Not very comfortable.
I don't like the way the latest update handles the navigation bar either, they took away the option to center the icons position.

Yes I also prefer the simple navigation bar & I use it too,
but It couldn't be otherwise since the "new" recent apps feature was added after the last update ui 4.1,there would be no room for such a thing
Anyway,If you disable the taskbar you will have the old bar with centered keys but you will lose the quick apps added in the last update , if you don't mind this ...
We're seeing a wide rollout of A13/One UI 5.0 for Tab S7 series.
Kudos to Samsung. 21 Device series have received it so far. Impressive.
__ And One Ui 5.0 is here ! A13 first build for Tab S7 it's a fact (T870 EUX for me) ..
Welcome Samsung .... Τhe truth is that it surprised me __
I am very pleased with Samsung's support for this device, and surprised because for years on various tablet devices I had bad impressions ...
From the beginning (A10) until now (A13) it has received a total of 24 updates "EUX"!(generally small or "large" updates)
For a first build on Android 13 it is generally very stable and with very good features ..
Very good and useful feature is the "Intelligent Wi-Fi" & "Wi-Fi developer options" . It gives the user very useful information about the Wi-Fi & network connection , Router, etc ..
I hope he continues on this and fixes some things in future updates.And of course, I hope Samsung continues the good work it's doing until now on this device ...
One UI 5.1 has been released!

To me
Afterparty launchers didn’t carry some gestures from the original launcher (swipe apps and accidental touch)
Some mistakes in some translations and some margins in some buttons
Kill all apps button in the show all apps screen didn’t work properly
Audio problems with some dongle dacs (though don’t think it will be addressed)
Security patch from November (i mean… not a biggie but still its nice to be updated)
Notifications not showing up from time to time
Don’t know if anyone else experienced this but sometimes the brightness “flickers” or dims up and down in low light condition, don’t know if anyone else addressed that
That’s all i remember as of now
Security Patch is January 1, 2023
Performance seems fine so far. Didn't have any issues before.

The brightness flicker is really annoying in the morning/evening when it's really noticeable... hopefully that's been fixed
I think they will fix something with the update since they pulled it out yesterday and hasn't been available as of yet
with this google security update can you still disable all googles services?
as far as i know this maybe the only phone you can degoogle without rooting
