New update - 4BQA4

[doncaruana]

So I got this update today and of course the "learn more" link just pointed to the 4BQA2 update, which was just the first Nougat release, which I already had.

Anyone know anything about this one? It still says Android version 7.0, and the security patch level is 2/1/17. The kernel is 3.18.31 and is dated March 13th. The full build number is NRD90M.G930VVRU4BQA4

I just got it also, claims to improve wifi. My wife and I were just discussing that the GPS has been a bit laggy lately, maybe this will help that, too.

Yep just Wi-Fi fixes. Nothing to improve battery. Fail. still 7.0.0

Checked SamMobile & Update.com & still no download link. Anyone know when or if they've released one yet?

So far, no issues with the latest update. Still wish they'd fix the "switch keyboards" issue. Really annoying to go into the manage keyboards section and turn off all the other keyboards and leave the one on that you want to switch to. Otherwise, really happy with this. I got 20 hours on one charge and had about 27% left in battery. This was after playing games, reading email, reading news, surfing the web, texting and phone calls. I do have it on the mid-power saving mode, and I use the App Power Monitor that currently has about 89 apps flagged to be put to sleep when they're in the background. That really helps and is a built-in Greenify in Nougat. Really nice.

Can anyone confirm if this update fixes the Samsung calendar app from keeping the screen on when a reminder or calendar event pops up while the screen is off? This was introduced for me with the original nougat update.

Is the behavior you see?

Set screen timeout for 15 seconds. Set up a meeting in google calendar with starting in 7 minutes and reminder 5 minutes before meeting. Then wait for reminder on lock screen to pop up, don't touch anything and let screen timeout. See if screen will get activated again and go off after 2nd screen timeout.

If you get the same behavior, please report. I think there is something wrong with this as if you had a meeting reminder and the phone in you pocket, the phone battery will drain fast and phone gets hot of course.

Thanks

The behavior you described is similar except that the screen turns on for the initial reminder, then it times out and comes on again, times out and then turns on again and this is an endless cycle until I dismiss the reminder. I thought factory reset would fix it... But nope.

That is exactly what I get. Is there a ticket opened with Samsung?

This seems to be the issue with Samsung pay https://forums.androidcentral.com/s...ar-notifications-keep-screen-post-nougat.html

Was it really that difficult to look just a few threads below this one to get your answer?
