Urgent Update? - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've just received a notification (I didn't catch the size) that seemed to come through Galaxy Apps.
It's description says 'enhanced features'.
What is it? There doesn't seem to be anything different after installing it.

I got this update too, no idea what it's for. It's not for OnCircle. I've had the OnCircle option since updating to OI9, it must be for something else.

[Q] Whatsapp force closing when trying to share an image

Hey everyone. Whatsapp keeps force closing on me when I try to share an image from the gallery application. From within whatsapp it's fine. But only while sharing from the gallery application.
I wrote Whatsapp over a week ago and as usual they don't answer. So I'm not sure. I doubt it's the phone because I've tried 3 different ROMs and I've had the same issue with all of the roms. So I don't know what to do. It's not that big of a deal, but it is kind of a bother. Sometimes I just get a black screen and I have to back out completely and just go into whatsapp itself to do it.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Solved: Whatsapp wrote me back today and the woman pointed me to the updated version they had on their website which totally fixed my issues! Thanks whatsapp hehe.
It works for me just fine...dont know why you have the issue..
infact i never had this issue in the various stock ROM's i have used in the past
I am on whatsapp version 2.7.431
If you are rooted try fix permissions , ROM manager has it... CWM recovery has it..might be few other ways too...
also check the settings in whatsapp, if the system status is showing working OK...
check if it works when you are on wifi...

I'm not rooted, that's the thing. All the roms have been stock (either an updated or not updated OS). Everything else on my phone works except this! It's strange. If I am not rooted can I still check permissions or anything else that you said? I'm also not interested in rooting. Thanks for the help
SOLVED! See first post

Hi um trying to open my whatsapp but is just keep on forcing me out.please help

Settings > About Device / Update -- Nothing happens?

I go into Settings > About Device > Software and click "Update" - and nothing happens. Nothing at all. No message saying "no update available", nothing.
It's a stock TAB 10.1, the only thing I did was root it. I haven't flashed any ROMs, themes or root-enabled apps.
I keep checking to see if ICS is ready for me yet - but I would at *least* expect that Update button to give me some sort of response (even if to say "nothing yet, nerd."), but it's as if nothing is happening.
Any ideas?

Yeah... That same thing will happen to 100% of all the Galaxy Tab 10.1 owners in all its variants around the world..
Hehehe the reason it's because there is no update yet xD.
Well unless you have a 10.1v Wich seems it started to be updated to ICS today

Excellent - thanks for the reply. I was hoping that was the deal, that there just wasn't an update. Sure would have been nifty for them to at least let me know that, instead of making me think the button/updater was broken with no feedback at all.
Thanks again. =)
Mine tells me "connecting to server" then tells me "no update available".

Great, now you ruin my happiness. Does anyone know the direct APK/app that's being called when this button is clicked? Maybe I could try and run it directly?
Are there some other settings I should have enabled? (WiFi is on, of course)
Maybe it's because it is rooted.

Multiple reboots, and nothing. The Aboute Device > Software Update -- then clicking Update produces no response. I wonder what I broke. :-/ Any idea on how to try and find out what's going on? Is there some sort of logcat I can look at?

maybe you can try re-flashing stock rom on your device.
there is no official update for the galaxy tab and maybe they will not get an official update and the same thing happens to me

ICS is rolling out within the next month, and is currently underway. That's why I've been checking - but I used to get "no update available" message - nowadays, nothing -- even watching the WiFi noti icon, it's not sending anything when I click it.

I updated to today's OTA and now I only get headlines in Google now

I updated to today's OTA and now I only get headlines in Google now.
When I swipe left I see all the articles with only the headline and a photo. No short summary.
The "more articles" section it's not affected.a refresh or system restart does not change
anything.

It seems I should refer to it as "Google feed" now. No-one else has this issue?
The S9+ is not rooted. Some things were removed after I bought it using ADB, but that has been some time ago. I had at least 2 OTA's since. This happened after I accepted the last OTA (of this weekend).

Are you talking about OS OTAs or updates to the Google app? Your original and follow up post weren't clear enough for anyone to offer help. It does seem like there may be an issue with Google Feed with an easy fix though. Changing the wallpaper. Seems silly, but might help you.

Hi... I was referring to the OS OTA of last weekend.
The link you gave me is indeed what's happened to me. Thanks!!!
The new problem I'm facing now is that I'm now somehow tangled in a Samsung account which I refuse to make.
Maybe i need to remove that wallpaper manager to get one that is not linked to Samsung.
If I can't find that I'll be back.
Many thanks
EDIT:
I removed Samsung themes and installed some other app and my feeds have returned

Anyone installed the November 7th update - G965USQU3BRJ5

If so, noticed any differences or problems?

On the stock messaging app, I keep getting
"Turn on Read Confirmation"
Allow Contacts to see when you've read their messages.
Cancel Turn On
Pretty annoying with every single thread of message. I dont want to turn it on because sometimes I'd like to ignore some people that text me. I've done everything from clearing cache and data.
Got it on the 7th, everything is running fine.
Thanks. I use a 3rd party text app, so if that's the only issue I guess I can live with it.
Can you mention in which countries you get it?
No update in Romania so far.

Getting new (facebook) messenger update

How can i get new update with new design ?
I install Messenger 192.0.0.25.101, but i don't have new design..
Some devices have it, other don't have it.
Some of my friends received this update, but after a few hours the update disappeared. But not everyone.
What to do ?
Changing build.prop to fake my device model will help me or something other can i do ?

Thank you, very much!
I have one question. If someone was backup(apk file or data, or both)the new update, would that mean we could use it now? (with updates turned off)

as far as I know this is actually server-side so you have to wait until you are "unlocked" by the server

In the newer Messenger versions, the "Save Photos" option was removed.
Even when installing an older messenger version where had it this option, it is missing.
But with a modified APK, this option has not yet been removed to me.
Maybe it's not fully server-side or ?!

And I'll try.
Does this mean that the release of the new design is not a mistake?

If you uninstall a messenger and then install it again, have you got the new design again?
Whether or not you get the re-design is entirely server-side on Facebooks end. They have stated you won't need to update the app at all, it'll just be enabled for your account in the background and then you will have it.
There's no way to get the re-design through an updated app as of yet. They do roll back some people who get it when they shouldn't.
You just have to wait. It's rolling out in waves.
