T-Mobile is rolling out a new software update to the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge smartphone that includes the July security patch on both the handsets.
The latest update from the T-Mobile weighs in around 350MB for both the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge. The update also includes some performance fixes from Samsung's part. Generally, Google brings in new updates every month to boost the security of Android devices. Already, Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge have received the Nougat and other security patches, according to Phone Arena.
The latest update brings in new firmware version of G930TUVU4BQG5 and G930TUVU4BQG5 for the T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge. As mentioned above, it brings in other improvements also. It is advisable to install this update, as it very important to add the security fixes to the device, as reported by The Android Soul.
As usual, the latest update is being rolled out over-the-air (OTA) and could take some time to reach all the T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge devices. In case if the user hasn't received the update notification already, then he/she can try checking for it manually. To do so, head to Settings > About device > Software update. Before hitting the install button, just make sure there is at least 50% charge left on the device.
It's also recommended to ensure the device is connected to a reliable internet connection before proceeding with the download. Downloading and installing the update over a cellular connection may give the users additional charges. The T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge users will get the taste of bug fixes with this new update.
