HOW TO FIX GALAXY S7 EDGE AFTER UPGRADING TO ANDROID NOUGAT

Some owners of smartphones Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge complain about the problems when upgrading to the version of the operating system Android Nougat. After downloading and installing, a reboot is performed, but instead of the home screen, the screen remains black.

During the upgrade, the cache and data may be damaged, resulting in the smartphone not being loaded as expected. This is the reason for most of the problems that users face soon after the operating system upgrade, regardless of the scale of this update. Possible solutions are described below.

Step 1: Force reboot

This is about the same as the usual reboot, only here the battery is simulated. If you previously had smartphones with removable batteries, you could get the battery and install it again when you hung up. The Galaxy S7 Edge battery is not removable, so you have to use a bypass maneuver.

Press and hold the volume control down and simultaneously on the power button for 10-15 seconds. If the battery is not fully discharged and the problem lies in a recent update, the device will then reboot. Otherwise go to the next steps.

Step 2: Charge your smartphone

You need to make sure that the smartphone reacts when an electric current passes through its circuits. If not, the problem can be hardware, including a battery. Perform the following procedure:

1. Connect the charger to the wall outlet.
2. Using a cable, connect the smartphone to it.
3. If it does not react, leave it charged for at least 10 minutes.
4. If it is not charged, press and hold the volume control down and the power button for 10-15 seconds during recharging.

If the smartphone does not charge, you need to read the appropriate manuals to solve this problem.
If the smartphone is charging, but does not load, proceed to the next step.

Step 3: Download the device in Safe Mode

Now you need to make sure that the smartphone is able to boot with disabled third-party applications, which can be a source of errors. If at least one of these applications is incompatible with the updated version of Android, there may be a system conflict preventing the download.

To go to safe mode:

1. Press and hold the power button.
2. When the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge appears on the screen, release the power button and immediately press the volume control down.
3. Hold it until the restart is complete.
4. Release the button when Safe mode appears in the lower left corner.

If the home screen has booted, suspicions have been confirmed and the third-party application can be guilty. You need to find it and delete it. If you can not do this, you need to back up all files and data and reset the settings to factory settings.

1. On the Home screen, click the Applications icon.
2. Go to Settings> Backup and Reset.
3. Click Reset Settings.
4. If security is set on the lock screen, enter the password or pin code.
5. Click Continue.
6. Click Delete All.

If the smartphone does not boot in safe mode, skip to the next step.

Step 4: Download in recovery mode and delete the cache partition

If the smartphone does not boot in safe mode, you need to use a different boot mode. There is a recovery mode where you can erase the cache partition.

1. Turn off your smartphone.
2. Press and hold the Home button and volume control up, then press and hold the power button.
3. When the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge appears on the screen, release the power button.
4. When the Android logo appears, release the other two buttons and do not touch the smartphone for 30-60 seconds.
5. Use the volume control down to highlight the wipe cache partition command.
6. Press the power button to activate the command.
7. Highlight the Yes button and click on it.
8. Wait for the end of the erasure of the cache partition. When the process is complete, highlight the
9. Reboot system now command and press the power button.
10. The smartphone will reboot for longer than usual.

If the erasure of the cache section does not help, you can reset the settings. First you need to try to boot into safe mode to back up files and data.

1. Turn off your smartphone.
2. Press and hold the Home button and volume control up, then press and hold the power button.
3. When the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge appears on the screen, release the power button.
4. When the Android logo appears, release the other two buttons and do not touch the smartphone for 30-60 seconds.
5. Use the volume control to select the wipe data / factory reset command.
6. Press the power button to activate the command.
7. Select the Yes command and activate it.
8. Wait for the process to finish. After that, select the Reboot system now command and activate it with the power button.

If the smartphone does not load properly after that, you should take it for repair.

How to solve the Galaxy S7 Edge problem, when after upgrading to Android Nougat at boot time it hangs on the logo
After installing the update on the smartphone, software problems could arise. Files or data could be damaged during the upgrade process. This when upgrading to Android Nougat happened quite often.

You can start with a forced reboot of your smartphone. Simulate battery removal as described above. After this, you can repeat the above steps in sequence.
If they do not help, connect your smartphone to the computer and see if it recognizes it. If so, it is recommended that you back up the data and perform a factory reset.

If this does not help, the problems can be serious and you need to refer the smartphone to a repair or a store.

What to do if the Galaxy S7 Edge shows a black screen after the system update

This again may be a software problem, since it arose after the operating system was updated. However, it can be a more serious hardware problem. To narrow the range of possible causes, you must perform the basic procedures described above.

First you need to force reboot and see if the problem remains. If she is left, you can proceed to the next step.

If the smartphone does not reboot forcefully, try connecting it to the charger and expect a reaction. If there is a reaction, try to boot into safe mode and see if the device is loading or not. Here, third-party applications are disabled, which can cause problems. If the device in this mode is loaded normally, look for the culprit application.

If the problem persists, there is a possibility that the system cache is to blame, which could be damaged during the upgrade process. You need to erase the cache partition, as described above.
If this does not work, you must reset the settings to factory settings. First, back up files, contacts, and other data. During the reset process, all data will be deleted.
