This is no longer the best method to block the update that causes the 60% Battery Firmware. Please go here to use the best method:
Block Samsung OTA Updated
SHOUT OUT TO Youness Benerrami! He found this program and we tested it to make sure it works. He is so awesome for not giving up and looking for a solution. I will be forever in debt to him!
Tools
Windows or Mac PC
USB Type C Cable
Note 7
Files to download
Samsung Smart Switch for PC (for the drivers)
Debloater program for Windows or Mac
Prepare your Note 7
-Put your Note 7 on Airplane Mode
-If you already have a packge disabler installed on your phone, now is the time enable all of the packages.
-Go to Settings---> Developer Options ----> Turn on USB Debugging, OEM Unlocked and Verify Apps via USB.
(If you don't already have Developer Options turned on, the instructions are here)
Prepare your PC
Samsung Smart Switch:
-Download and install Samsung Smart Switch if you don't already have the Note 7 drivers on your PC. After it is installed then just close the program. We only needed it for its drivers.
Debloater:
-Install the program onto your PC. Then open the program.
-Because your Note 7s are not rooted, you will get a disclaimer stating that the program cannot block these packages but instead, it will hide/disable them. Do not be alarmed, this is okay because it will still render these packages useless and that is what we want. Just hit the "OK" button to proceed.

com.sec.spp.push
com.samsung.sdm.sdmviewer

com.lookout
Packages the Debloater program automatically blocks:
com.sec.knox.containeragent2,
com.sec.android.emergencylauncher
com.samsung.android.bbc.fileprovider
com.sec.knox.bluetooth
com.samsung.knox.kss
com.sec.knox.shortcutsms
com.samsung.knox.trustagent
com.sec.enterprise.knox.shareddevice.keyguard
com.samsung.upsmtheme
*Note* This program auto disables the following pacakges along with some packages that help prevent the update. Though most of packages are knox related, you will still be able to use Samsung Pay and your Secure folder! I also tested this program by turning my phone off and on and the update still does not come through. Enjoy not having to worry about the update happening ever again.
