Missing Features In Nougat

Before Nougat was released, Samsung produced a manual describing all the changes that would be included in Nougat. I guess that Verizon did not see this manual as they have removed (or disabled) both the Device Maintenance feature and Samsung Cloud. Since Samsung published that these WOULD be (not might be) included in Nougat. Okay Verizon, when are you going to give these back to us?

Especially if the carrier in question has to pay extra for those features. Then the carrier might opt to not have those options on their branded device model.

I disagree. I think that since they were advertised to be in Nougat then they should be there regardless of cost. I am still waiting for someone from Verizon to explain why these features were removed and when they plan on adding them back.

Samsung doesn't require them as standard features. Not every model has all the features that Samsung could include because those features are extra. Verizon Wireless has more cost then most carriers for the radio frequencies to make the devices fully unlocked and global ready. If they want to keep the cost of the Verizon model close to the other carriers, they often don't pay for the extra features.
