Either no update yet, or the shield is doing its job! I did just receive another nag notification from Samsung about the phone being banned, etc.

I backed up all my data yesterday just in case.

I'm on the sprint network, so I still have a few more days to install the shield, but as of yet, everything has been working as intended, save for the occasional reminder that the automatic update is not working. Do you all ever wonder if they are going to the trouble to respond to the fixes which they see in these forums, or do you think they are even bothered by someone who is taking measures to guard their phone?

Hey Guys,

I received the Install Update earlier today from VZW and it totally freaked me out since I thought I wasn't supposed to get it once I did the Blocker. It would not go away so it allowed me to postpone it until 11 pm tonight and it will automatically update. Is there anything I can do? I have not downloaded the Shield yet because I don't think I have 5 posts as of yet. Is there anything else I can do? I desperately need help NOW! I'm freaking out and I'm afraid I'm going to run out of time and it's going to be too late to do anything else to my Note 7. I've been at 100% charge for the past few weeks now with no issues whatsoever. PLEASE HELP ME!
