"Urgent" update aims to fix Galaxy S8's Device Quality Agent issue

Samsung Android Firmware Updates

Samsung has started pushing out an urgent update that is aimed at fixing a DQA (Device Quality Agent) issue that US and Canadian users of the Galaxy S8 have been facing ever since they installed the day-one software update.

Basically, an error started popping up every 30-seconds to a minute, saying "DQA keeps stopping." The DQA, in case you aren't aware, keeps a tab on the Wi-Fi quality throughout the handset.

Although there were a couple of workarounds (force closing the DQA app or disabling Wi-Fi), it's good that Samsung has quickly issued an update to solve the problem. The update is available through the tech giant's Galaxy Apps store.
