Hi, Spitfire 400, Yes Android 7.0 supports wifi calling although you may need to reactivate it yourself

my wifi calling disappeared after factory reseting my phone and myvodafone app does not have the feature to deactivate wifi calling.  So i text Vodafone code, waited for 15 min and then just called support.

They was able to do it straight away and wifi calling reappeared.  everything good now

And was this on the BTU firmware previously mentioned, or on branded vf UK?

Hi @Stevie1

Most of that update if correct isn't going to change my usage to be honest. 

The feature "4. App Shortcuts on Home Screen" seems to be what Apple have already introduced on their iOS with offering multi options when holding the App.

I see on Nougat we have a couple of options already including putting the App to sleep which is cool. 

The "Fingerprint Gestures" looks promising.  

What always interests me is the Security Patches.

@BandOfBrothers - I think the fingerprint gestures will be a big hit!

I used to use Nova Prime as my launcher, mainly for the gestures, then Nougat came out and I decided to stick with Samsung's stock launcher to give Grace UX a bit of time. The gestures were the the main thing I missed with Nova as I struggled at times to reach the notification bar, well that was until I decided to sell my S7 Edge for an iPhone 7 the other day :smileyembarrassed:

Hi @BandOfBrothers,

I totally agree with you and as yourself l think the security patches are more important

Anyone else suffering with a collection of bugs since updating? I've been having regular video playback issues, WiFi dropping out, Google Play services crashing... It's great that we have Nougat at last, but I'll be even happier when we get the up-to-date version with patches!
