We could, but wouldn't updating to patches not meant for our region possibly cause problems?

There are no differences between regional updates, I had first updated my phone to Pie vie VPN, and it was fine, because after that I got other updates too.

I tried VPN but could not do anything
What app and settings should I use

I'll try it, thanks for the advice. Should I just use enable the VPN then scan for updates or is the process not as simple?

UI is the same, haven't been able to test battery usage yet. "Sprint Features Apps" installed automatically when the phone booted. Just seems like a security update like OJ6.

Didn't try it friend. I'm still B370 & waiting for official OTA.
But according to their changelog there's no app twin function on it.

But not all things are included in chnagelog.
They assume it is already there so they will not add it
This broke my phone
Now the power button doesn't work. Phone restarts often . And dictionary words are missing. I don't know what else is broken. Anyone else experiencing this? How can I fix this?
TWRP
How can I install this update over TWRP ? I have got the Full-OTA from FirmwareFinder.

Stock and Update

I have recently flashed Stock Firmware for moto g5 ( XT1677 ) how to get updates after that?
The bootloader is unlocked.
Can anyone suggest a way?
I'm quite sure it will run into a bootloop if you install an ota update while the bootloader is unlocked.
No, an unlocked bootloader will not broke ota, it will update without any problems
Still, my security patch level is in January 2017 amzn variant, I think its August patch running on... Can anyone suggest how to update to that?

Updated: Get your milk ready for official Oreo release (later)

4/23/2018 Update:
Seems Big Red made a big snafu in their announcement on their update page about the latest OTA being an Oreo update. Whoops!
http://www.androidguys.com/2018/04/2...alaxy-s7-oreo/
Also, they have fixed their software update page and removed all references to Oreo from the latest OTA:
https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/samsung-galaxy-s7-update/
It looks like we'll be seeing it before the end of May possibly:
https://androidcommunity.com/samsun...0-oreo-update-coming-in-a-few-weeks-20180424/
=========================================
Per Android Community, the finishing touches are being done on Oreo for the S7 family which includes those of us on Verizon's version of the phone as well as unlocked phones.
No firm date has been set yet, but it could be any day now.
https://androidcommunity.com/samsung-galaxy-s7-s7-edge-to-receive-android-8-0-oreo-update-20180418/
Per SamMobile, the US variants have been certified with Oreo.
https://www.sammobile.com/news/galaxy-s7-oreo-update-inches-closer
For many, this may not be a big deal, especially if you root and flash. But for those of us that have no need to root and flash custom ROMs, this is big news. But sadly, it probably also marks the last official upgrade for the S7s. We'll probably get one more year of security updates and then we're on our own at that point.
FYI: https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/samsung-galaxy-s7-update,
the update hasn't been release just yet

Yes, there has been some misunderstanding at Verizon. The changelog for the BRC3 says Oreo and lists all the features but it's actually still Nougat OS. Can you share the screenshot from your device of the software info screen showing the Android OS and build no. both?

did they push the wrong update? or publish the wrong change log?
i think it was a fix for the update we had earlier this month , it was sucking my battery.

I definitely had an update applied in last two days at least that is BRC3 so looks like wrong changelog. Verizon support is clueless but is forwarding it to their IT team supposedly..
Edit: Also they mention April 1st security patch in Oreo/BRC3 changelog, I do have that as well but I think those can be pushed without OS update. None of the Oreo features are anywhere to be found though and still 7.0 according to about this phone.
or maybe its a multi-stage update.
an update to prepare for the update.

If you're not on Verizon's network, you own't receive the update. You'll have to wait for someone to upload the Verizon image and then ODIN it.

It updates the security patch to october. And that's pretty good. I guess Samsung is not going to improve this firmware any further. Camera won't get any better because the sensor is too small for 24mp, although it's not bad considering the price, and fingerprintsensor also has improved a lot. It just needs to be set up right, and many users don't seem to succeed.
My only reason now to prefer an s series phone over a50 is the camera.

Hi, check out my other thread about GPS issues. I had them with previous version than this and the previous still. I don't think it is related to firmware at this point - until they finally realize it and fix it, of course

no problems with speed or GPS with oktober update
