Just wanted to inform people that there is a new minor update available. It didn't pop up on its own. I found it this morning by manually checking for one. Haven't tested improvement yet.
Awesome, just updated

Wtf.. How are you possibly gauging that your battery life is better? Patch just came out!! You need to cycle your battery a couple times before getting an accurate reading.

Yes, this update is better than last update. Good work, Samsung

Because my battery would drain rapidly visible to the eye just by using it. I've had my phone in my hand a lot today and the battery by a 1% basis is just not going down the way it normally does.

FTFY
Anyway, I have been using DOJC now for three days. Have not noticed any improvement or decrease in battery. Same screen on time and such. Still lasts me the whole day.
Not sure if anyone else was affected, but this update bricked my modem. Bluetooth audio crashes the phone and the cellular radio will no longer connect to towers. I'm stuck on WiFi until my warranty replacement arrives.

I'm not totally sure if this will fix your issue, but try using kies or smartswitch to download stock firmware and wipe it and reinstall stock.

Thanks for the suggestion! I didn't get much grief on the warranty replacement, so I'll wait for that to arrive.
I've been running stock with package disabler on this for a long time (upgraded with everything re-enabled). Wanted to try a t-mobile version of xlite but it looks like the dev dropped support for that build in favor of the international one.
Haven't tried a factory reset yet since I've got a bunch of tokens I need to keep until I can move them and don't want to risk losing more functionality with a reset or image. [emoji28]

For what it's worth, I've been able to move tokens over by rooting and using titanium backup with great success. Just a recommendation if the warranty doesn't show up for a long while.

I've tried several different firmwares. Belgian, Italian, CE, etc. I've done factory rewipes, I've gotten root, I've removed root. Whatever I do, the phone is possessed. It randomly turns off completely or it reboots. Sometimes when using the internet, sometimes when trying to open the lockscreen, sometimes when I simply touch the screen! Anybody having the same problems? Any solutions?
Maybe it's hardware problem? Does it happens on 4.1?

Nope. 4.1 was perfect!
Try to remove your SD card.
If it doesn't work, then try to format internal storage.
If it doesn't work, then make a factory reset and install your app one by one, because there could be one that gives issues with the new system.
Let us know..

I did that. Which of your 15 phones is it? I went with Pure-X Blaster for my V. It is pretty similar to 4.3. It's 4.22.
I am a bit surprised. People usually would not have such a tolerance, that was only known for a fruit religion.
Downgraded to 4.1.2 which used to be rock solid...now getting random reboots and shutdowns!

There's something wrong with your hardware
Do you have your bootloader unlocked?
The power control function of the battery is dead on your device.
The reason I asked if you had tried 4.1 since is for me upgrading to 141 last year I had the same issue and so did a lot of others. The T is very prone to this failure, it can happen thorough everyday use but more commonly appears to happen post major update.
Very simple to rectify, if under warranty Sony will replace as they did with me, if no warranty you need to buy a new battery and replace it(plenty of guides on youtube.)

Setting to 3G only solved random reboot on my xv.
It seems that switching from 2g to 3g is the root cause.

Already tried that. I think Wobba-Lee was correct. Somehow the update can fry the battery sensor.
I've had this happen before and found the SIM card had moved slightly. Removing it and refitting it solved the issue.

The new update definitely has made improvements.
My phone is a bit faster now. Don't heat up as much. But what other changes did the update make? Can't find any patch notes.
The phone is usable now with it plugged in. No laggy touchscreen. It's the phone it should have been four months ago.

I'm confused... my phone worked while plugged in before. Your phone was completely useless while charging?
Improvement on touch response and phone seems to run a bit more smoothly.
I assume this is NOT for those that are on custom recovery (TWRP) and root ... I got the pop up for the update (thought I blocked the ota app ... DOH) but of course am in a "wait and see mode" right now.
I see that this question is already asked in the other update thread Apologies ... lol

Interesting. I would have thought that would be a hardware issue.
After the ota to 10n today the new slo-mo camera feature doesn't record in slow motion, but the touch screen is much improved and phone is faster.
edit: nvm you have to use the "videos" app within the native LG gallery app to see it play back in slo-mo....great update!!
I just updated my phone to this version, and yes the touch screen is more responsive than before, but i also notice the battery is drain a bit.

always nice to get an update. about to install, need to quick charge first. I had wifi-calling on all night, hence my battery was at 1% when i woke up. which brings me to my next point: i hope this update fixes the cell-standby bug. I don't think I'll use video calling much if it means my battery life tanks due to enabled VoLTE. It's been reported, on other S6 variants that got this "latest TW" update, that RAM management is better, so i'm looking forward to that possibility. hopefully the experts here will check out all the minute code details regarding RAM and let us know if RAM management is the same or not.

My battery life seems to be a bit better with this update.
I just plugged phone into smartswitch and saw the update. 50% through right now. Wonder what's up with it, and hopefully battery life is a little better. I'm pretty sure being an avid user as I am, and the apps that I run don't help.... But, my s4 got better battery then this phone does =/ I'm also probably going to have to get a replacement, because my camera is all wonky, and making weird noises.. All in all, I'm fairly disappointed with the way Samsung rolled this phone out. I'm trying to stick with Samsung, but they are making it very hard.
anywhere to get the file? i'm rooted so no ota update for me...
Memory management still sucks balls. Everything else in the update is legit though. Seems like there is more bloat than ever.
Got Wifi issue! It won't connect or either too slow, though wifi signal is good.

Yeah DHA values remain the same. More bloat as well. So far no cell standby drain while on VOLTE though.

There is a new update that started to roll today with Baseband: G920TUVU3DOI1
Per website, indicates various bug fixes and improvements.

Right, it is a very small update. I am installing right now. I am not rooted or anything. So i will try and give some feedback when i finish installing. But i am sure that it is going to take a few days to notice any actual changes.
There's already another thread that was created yesterday about this update. Maybe we should all stick to that one so we have a unified place for information gathering. Allegedly this update was to activate Samsung Pay, but mine still did not work. I am completely stock and unrooted. I don't care, I just want better battery (too early to tell).
A 62mb update to enable Samsung pay? Yeah that doesn't make much sense at all.

Clear twice the app and system cache before posting this.
I have Data off, International Data On, Wi-Fi calling off, VoLTE off.
When the phone goes to sleep and the Wi-FI is disconnected (I have "Keep Wi-Fi during sleep off), when it goes off it automatically turns on the Data....
If I have the data on, it goes off automatically. I have to run it on again to use it....
I haven't found the issue what is causing this. Phone not rooted

No issues here...everything works fine.
around day 2 after the latest update i noticed my battery life seemed to be lasting longer. I noticed my "time left" quote was exceptionally high, normally quoting 25ish hours max on a full charge, this time quoting 38.
last friday was the first day of any major usage. used it more than i typically do even on fridays (sat and watched youtube videos quite a lot), with 2 20 minute charges or so, from 8:00am to 6pm it was getting heavy usage, with about 3 hours of youtube going, and at the end of hte day i was above 60%.
That had me floored as normally after a normal friday, I'd be pushing my luck for 40% even with using my portable charger, and thats without youtube.
tomorrow I'll get to give it another hard test and see if it holds up again. if it does i think i will suddenly love my phone now
Anyone else receive this OTA this morning? I didn't see, or look for, a detailed change log before proceeding with the OTA push. Phone rebooted and is optimizing apps right now. I'll provide further details once it finishes.
I know, for sure, that I checked for new software within the past week or so and there was nothing available. I've been up to date with OTA upgrades since getting this phone on day one of its release.
Anyone know anything about this upgrade?

Probably just updating security mostly since we were a few months behind. Could also be preparing our phones to take take 6.0 update since there's usually a small update before a big one. Wouldn't hold my breath on it though

Don't try to apply this update if you've applied one of the leaked insecure boot images (for getting a root prompt). There's a check of the boot image built into the updater and if you attempt installation it will wipe your phone back to stock.
D**k move Samsung, d***k move.
I was a fool to initially think that the update juuuuuust might be Marshmallow. And then I thought, "I have AT&T. They would've made the announcement before just releasing the OTA. Hell, they would've made a big deal out of it, even; as if they're doing us a favor. " And so, I took a Valium and went to sleep.
This update seems to break mms for many of the users myself included verified with AT&T that is indeed related to it Samsung is on process of updating. Anyway if you happen to get it just boot your phone to safe mode and then use mms there and restart back to normal, it works after . And hopefully marshmallow will be soon

So far I've noticed my battery life is better than it was before, on the OJ7 update i had a very odd drain as well as issues with my bluetooth and wifi that were only fixed with a reboot......so far knock on wood they seem to be resolved but it should take a few more days to fully confirm. I did also try Enhanced LTE again and just as before I had a nice drain on my battery so they still don't have that working great yet (my area has weak LTE and switches between LTE and 4G on a normal basis).
