Anyone have problem if remove sim tray and restart phone, sd card will be corrupt.

You shall turn off the phone before remove the sim tray for safety condition.

As for the every restart mention SDcard is Android 6.0 stupid feature.

Hey guys, i just bought my s7e today. Should i update as ive been reading up that alot of connectivity issues and battery drain issue occur after the update. Please advice. thanks

Just update it, update resolved most issue not generate more issue. I dunno where you read latest firmware generate a lot issue, it fixing nearly all the issue not generate more.

Since I've taken some flak on the previous thread regarding my statement above... I figure that some elaboration and update is warranted.

I was travelling last week using the phone quite extensively as both gps, surfing for info, translate and camera (shot 10GB worth of photos and clips) and the problem keep popping up often enough to be worrisome as I was relying on the phone for everything.

Oh.. there's also the issue of google maps location being quite inaccurate showing my location popping from one place to another place. My wife's ip6+ didn't have that issue and my M9 used during the last trip didn't have such issues too.

Strange enough, it was spot on accurate when I wasn't travelling.

Anyhow, it got annoying enough that I updated the firmware (something I wouldn't do otherwise when travel) and the problem went away. Well... except the google maps location thing... that still got all over the place.
*
Probably you long never use or 1st time using Samsung, Samsung always rush out their product and initial firmware often got issue. After 1 or 2 updates all problem will gone.

Congratulate most your problem is fixed. For that inaccurate location issue, the Google Maps kind of suck actually especially recently. I threat that is Google Map issue.

Is there a way not to update the phone or it auto update?

Also i cannot connect to win10..it connect and dc..but the phone is in charged mode
*
Why you don't want to update? Does't make sense at all, you no need PC to update, it is all OTA and OTA file size is small. PC normally will be full ROM download.

QUOTE(sniper on the roof @ Apr 24 2016, 11:27 PM)
Yeah its my first samsung. And i thought htc first firmware was bad.

As for google map, its strange cos my wife also using google maps on ios with no problem. And i have no problems with it in Taipei.
*
What I mean is I don't have problem locating it but I do have problem getting a correct place, Google Map often give me some place I don't want.

HTC 1st firmware for me is kind of ok, I mean in M8 as that the only HTC I used before.

Yes.

I've only encountered the issue when I was in Tokyo last week.

At first I thought it could be interference or something but same thing happens in the countryside (Hakone).

Sometimes it shows my correct location and suddenly jumps showing my location one street away. Sometimes even back and forth.
*
I actually face this in my working place before few times for my S6 Edge, Note5 and S7 Edge. It show I at Italy or some others Europe country! but I actually at Malaysia! I know this as my weather widget auto detect my location incorrectly. I not making the story, it really happen!

Now I think back it seems I didn't face this issue when I was using One M8, Nexus 6 and G4. hmm...

It's fine for people to think twice before upgrading the firmware,no?
who knows if the lg g4 firmware issue (bootloop and soft brick) hits our s7e as well? No one could guarantee that,better safe than sorry
*
If it is cause by firmware. The company will take action on it. Nothing much to worried about.

Its a feature of marshmallow to corrupt sd cards every restart?

It is not corrupted.it just tell you that sdcard is insert. You want to view the content or format it or not. The format it or not info is really silly. The sdcard is not corrupt. Just swipe and ignore that message.

Agree! Edge edition just way too expensive to clone now.

The fake one is actually quite obvious. The craft is not that smooth, the screen is not that near to edge and also not that stick to glass.

I can only said this is A quality clone not yet AA quality.

Finally uploaded some of my vacation photos.

Brought my camera, 5 lenses, 3 batteries, tripod and end up shooting 99% of photos on the S7

The S7's not perfect but its so much more convenient and does the job pretty well.

Let me know what you think:

gemfive do sell SD version of the S7e.....IMHO, no harm in that. in fact, SD version uses the latest SD820 which is in fact better than Exynos in app which doesn't use too many core......as it is running on a higher speed per core. with only quad core versus exynos octa core, SD version is likely to consume lesser power too.
*
SD consume more power, it is bad on battery consumption. SD also not as great optimize as Exynos.

In short - Exynos is the better edition.
