              Thanks to all my friends...as far as what I have understood is not to update the software to 7.0 now..let everybody get new patch and if things work properly then only we should update ...

                  yes, I found that option (force activities to br resizable).
                  am using jio as 1st sim and Vodafone as second. when I browse using jio , 2nd sim shows no signal. it may stay long or short, if we put to airplane mode and switch back again I will get network or it will regain network automatically.
                  today I visited Samsung service center and they did software update by their means and returned. After 5 mints the problem again occurred.. I showed it to the executive and he just browse you tube and said no issues... I sit there ,browsed and showed him it again. they asked me to leave the phone there, but I suggested them that its not a board issue ,only a software issue so no use in leaving my phone there, also informed him regarding the complaints I noticed in different websites. Then he telephoned someone and said there is an issue with A7 OS, it is reported as an issue globally by today morning.so the problem may be resolved by a new update..so waiting for that.

                    I have the same problem. I use hoo in slot 1 and airtel in 2. The airtel signal frequently disconnects and appears again. Hope to have a solution for this.

                      Thanks.

                          Dear Vishnu1989 thank you for your reply .

                          Regarding multi window I want to know if the following option is there in the Nougat version in your phone or not

                          Step 1: Head over to Settings -> About Phone and tap on Build Number 7 times to enable the hidden Developer Options menu.

                          Step 2: Head back to the Settings menu where you will now see Developer Options. Inside it, scroll to the very bottom of the list and enable the Force activities to be re-sizable.

                          Also try to check if the fast charging working properly or not .

                          I use JIO 1st sim slot and Airtel 2nd sim slot
                          Are both network signals working fine or any problem..

                          I use 1st sim for data and 2nd sim for call.

                                AnonD-673263, 30 May 2017Dear Friends , I have bought a new Samsung A7 2016 10 days before but till now not updated as... more1. After the latest update ,am getting a free RAM of around 1.2 Gb (afer optimizing
                                ). note- I installed around 27 apps of the kind personalization, photography, nova launcher etc, no games installed.
                                2. Refarding the muti window, ur concern is not clear. I think its working like previously( am not a regular user of multi window) if u suggest the apps u need to know , I will check it for u.
                                3. Network issue- Am using jio in 1st slot and Vodafone in second. The problem is after the nougat update when we are using internet the signal will be lost for sometimes, and it may or may not return to the normal state. 2 days b4 I got the second update(1.2m), after that the problem shifted to the second sim network..internet wil work fine in the first and second sim will become dead for sometimes..say 1 or 2 mints. This problem occur only when we are browsing.
                                4.Fast charging.. I didn't noticed a big variation, but I think some difference is there- let me observe it clearly.

                                but notice, my phone's performance increased a lot. it is now running smooth, no lag or bugs( in marshmallow I had a little bugs and lags). The UI is very good. The concerned problem is the network issue. Also one more thing last evening my phone just got restarted and stuck up by showing the "Samsung " for 3 hr, after that I pressed lock+volum button then it restarted. it might not be a problem with the update,i hope.
