I've been on the phone with Samsung since last weekend. The new update buggered my phone in ways that I'm still discovering. Camera doesn't work in PRO mode, calls can no longer be blocked, battery life sucks.
Samsung has told me to 1) send the phone to them for repair 2) take it to a local UbreakIfix store for them to fix it.
I tried #2, but the guy took the phone in the back of the store, returned with it and said that I have apps that conflict, like Swype - it has to go to Samsung for them to do it. Then why was everything working fine before the update?
Now what? No phone for a week and a half? And when it comes back will it be really fixed, or is Samsung going to wait me (and everyone else) out until we get tired.

Only just changed from my s6 as the fast charge stopped working, had this s7 two weeks and after the update, I've lost fast charge again, not happy at all I'm fed up with samsung ruining phones with there half ass efforts to update old handsets, I will be changing to Apple, anybody manage to fix the fast charge/ battery drain issue as pulling my hair out trying different settings?

Hi
Having updated the latest software i have now lost some of the icons for battery life, date and time, my phone does not screen lock and the side buttons for the volume do not work. Has anyone else had this trouble?
Thanks

I believe these companies do this. Especially where a monopoly exists.
I did not update for this exact reason.

Since my phone updated, I have had ads popping up for everything. When I unlock my phone, an ad; when I try making a phone call, an ad. Today, my phone has constantly been restarting itself. It was doing it randomly most of the day, then went into a restart loop for about 2.5 hours. I haven't seen anyone else say they have these problems...?
