Unfortunately, Samsung decided it wouldn’t be supporting this feature with the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge, even though both handsets mark the return of the much-missed SD card slot. This allows the phone to treat the resulting memory as one partition, making it easier to see how much storage you have available.
SAMSUNG S7 EDGE SMART SCROLL ANDROID
One of Android Marshmallow‘s coolest new features is the ability to ‘merge’ the Micro SD card with the internal storage.

If all else fails, a factory reset might be in order. Tap the Volume Down button to scroll down the list of options and then select ‘Wipe Cache Partition’ by pressing the Power button. This launches the S7’s Android system recovery mode. With your Galaxy S7 turned off, press and hold the Power, Home, and Volume Up buttons together until you see the Samsung logo and then release. If overheating persists, you can try wiping the cache partition. Doing this will stop apps from working in the background even when you’re not using the phone. Go to Settings > Battery > Battery Usage > More > Optimise battery usage, and tap ‘All Apps’. Luckily, the Battery optimiser setting allows you to stop apps from sapping energy when the phone isn’t in use. If you’re experiencing overheating even when not using or charging your phone, it could be down to a particular app. It’s enabled by default so chances are, if you haven’t turned it off already, this could be the source of your overheating woes. To disable quick charging, go to Settings > Battery and turn Fast Cable Charging off.
Either way, turning these settings off can reduce the uncomfortable warmth that can build up during charging. While the Exynos models of the S7 and S7 Edge use Samsung’s Adaptive Fast Charging technology, the Snapdragon 820 models use Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 2.0 tech. If, however, the handset is heating up without your intervention, it could all be down to the fast-charge setting. In this case it could simply be down to the fact that you’re using the phone while it’s charging. Some users are reporting that their handset is getting too hot when charging. If you find that your Galaxy S7 is overheating, there are a number of ways to tackle the problem. The other advice, if you suffer from this issue, is to invest in a good chunky case, which typically puts an extra few millimetres between your fingers and the screen.
Unfortunately, there’s no fix for this at present, other than that old iPhone 4 ‘Deathgrip’ advice: hold it differently. It can also cause issues when gripping the phone a certain way whilst trying to take a picture, with the shutter button proving unresponsive, or even when trying to type out a message on the keyboard. This can be a particular problem for the Galaxy S7 Edge, for obvious reasons. We’ve seen some Galaxy S7 users complaining that the display is simply too sensitive, and that the palm-rejection feature isn’t doing its job of filtering out incidental presses around the edges of the display. Once your phone restarts, the power and volume buttons should be responsive again. While the power and volume buttons might appear unresponsive, holding the power and home buttons together should still reset the Galaxy S7.
