I really do like the phone itself. My first S6 edge plus worked fine until I updated to Android 6 when it was released for samsung smartphones. Now, I understand that a brand new os is bound to have issues, but a few patches and updates later the problems persisted. The biggest issue was with signal strength nose diving (-110 to -120 dbm). Changing network modes didn't do anything. The other issues were with voicemail (error code 9002), and certain apps wouldn't work properly (google, pandora). I tried a factory reset and a SIM card replacement, but no fix. Verizon was able to send me a replacement S6 edge plus with the existing android 5 os. I REFUSED to update to android 6 and the phone worked great. All I had to deal with was the recurring prompt for me to do a phone update, but it was easy to ignore it or set it for a later time. Unfortunately, I accidentally pushed update recently and now I have marshmallow and some of the same problems. The signal strength problem is gone thankfully. But some of my apps don't work properly and I still receive the 9002 error for voicemail. I've read that the 9002 code disappears if I switch power saving mode off, but I charge my phone a lot as is and would not like to drain battery life faster. Is there any other patches or fixes out there that I don't know about, or am I just stuck with the bugs?
