[Update: Spots filled] Samsung reopens registrations for Galaxy S7 and S7 edge Android 7.0 beta testing in the UK
Three weeks ago, Samsung opened registrations for the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge users to beta test Android 7.0 on their devices through its Galaxy Beta program. However, there were limited slots, and the registrations were closed soon after. Now, Samsung has reopened registrations in the UK.
If you were one of those in the UK who missed out on registering your device the last time, now is the time to apply for beta testing once again. Samsung has also released three updates for beta testers so far to fix some bugs and to introduce new features. Moreover, as per Samsung’s email to one of our readers, the company will start the second phase of registrations later this week in the US.
You can also check out all the new features that Samsung has introduced with Android 7.0 beta update.
Thanks for the tip, Chris!
Update: All the spots for the Galaxy Beta Program have been filled, so the company has now stopped accepting registrations.
Thanks for the tip, Henk!

*Downloaded and flashed my phone with UK marshmallow (precisely BTU),

The update is the coolest I have seen since I started using Samsung devices.
No more registration closed because get max users
The galaxy beta program are taking new registrations right now in the u.s hurry if your interested…I just registered and I assume I was accepted
I can confirm this! Registered about 2 hours ago and currently running the beta on a T-mobile GS7 Edge
Actually, i had installed the beta version through Odin, since the registration didn’t go through. It was not stable enough specially with Facebook messenger, then only yesterday manged to register to beta, got immediately the beta 2 of 92mb. What surprise me the other update after with 302mb, is this beta 3? or sort of, i love the phone with the new updates 🙂
im gonna cry in tears if i am not in.
i have 7.0 beta 1 installed csc code btu. used to say maximum ammount reached now it says server error…
I’m from korean and my devices is G935F. Use andandroid 6.0.1.And Now i want upgrade to Android 7.0 Nougat. Please help me. Thank you !
@htmedia .1st you need to download android n beta 1 update after flash it thro Odin 3.12.x .Then install galaxy beta programme app an registered your device. Then go to settings check for update .if you got update of 92.5 mb then voila now your part of android n beta program. Then after that once it get I installed again go over to settings and check software update you will 314.5 mb of software update.
I really need help, I cant find the android n 7.0.1 firmware for s7 edge from sammobile. and if u mean the one from other sources. then I have installed it but it already have the beta programed from the beginning. and it says ur device isn´t registered. Can I install the official BTU marsmallow firmware from here. and try to install beta program through galaxy apps? if yes, do I need BTU csc also, and how to find? thnx if someone can help!
Install the official UK firmware via odin. Then download and install the galaxy Beta programme and register your device. Then go settings and check for updates and You’ll get the last beta firmware with all the updates.
Would I have to flash the BTU csc as well though? Don’t really fancy resetting my phone but if I can keep my home_csc then I’ll sure do it. Also are there still spots available now?
I am in the US; how can I stay up to date with when the registration reopens so that I can be sure to sign up?
Well i’m from india and it worked for me.i flashed nougat beta 1 update on my s7 edge . Then I installed tha beta programm apk .registered successfully .Then I got 92.5 mb software update and after I got 314.2 mb update . Yes one thing i doesn’t like that VoLTE feature is not working.
didn´t ur device have already the beta program, cause I installed the beta firmware from odin from other sources. and the beta says “ur device isn´t registered”. Do u mean even if my firmware isn´t official through beta program, I should install the 2:nd update and then register?
please help!
Yes I also installed it via Odin but I saw that volte was not working that’s why I have to flash back to marshmallow rom again apart from that everything was working smoothly no major bugs at all apart from that volte was not working please let me know if volte is working in newer builds
Sammobile should help us
First update was 92 MB,super fast,tysm
finally,now still waiting for second update and third update,grab them to all !
Downloading the beta. Thanks. I Flashed the official UK firmware via odin, registered to the re open beta programme and now it’s downloading the official beta through OTA. Thanks for the info!
Yes!! Been waiting for Sammy to re-open the Beta Registration.
Downloading Beta 2 OTA. After this one, Beta 3 OTA.
For Non-UK like me, Here’s how you can join:
1. Odin flash Nougat Beta 1 to your device.
2. Download and install Beta app.
3. Register
4. Once registered, you’ll be able to receive OTA updates.
Sammobile has all the necessary download links for the files.
Beta app is Samsung Members?
Nope, they’re two different apps. You can only use Samsung Members apps if you’re registered to Beta Program. Hence, you need to install also the Beta App (.apk around 19Mb).
You may download the app from here:
http://www.sammobile.com/2016/11/04/samsung-starts-android-nougat-beta-test-galaxy-s7-edge-uk/
I tried posting the Sammobile Link for the Beta App but I got an “awaiting moderation” message.
Samsung Members & Beta App are two different apps. The former is dependent with the latter. Meaning, you can’t use Samsung Members app if you’re not registered to Beta Program.
it doesn’t work if you are outside UK, if someone can make a OTA please share it.
I’m from Belgium, flashed trough Odin, never got any updates. Just registered and updating right now! 😀
Have a problem if i flash on a Brazilian version?
Hi, Generally how long should it take to pop up the OTA. I have been waiting for a few hours now.
I waited for 12 hours, it did not show up.
Then I deregistered and registered again and got the update immediately. 🙂
Where you from?
I am from Slovenia and installed beta 1 with Odin and today installed beta programme apk and registered just fine. Now I am installing the latest beta…
I get the message “an error has occurred” when opening the beta programme. Im on noghat 1st beta. Any solutions?
Install the official UK firmware, flash via odin. Install the beta programme app, register, and then update via OTA and you’ll get the beta with all the updates.
All i get is server error now, Is there any fix for that ?
Registering doesn’t work outside U.K., atleast not for me as I eversince just get an error message. Faking my VPN to UK hasn’t worked, aswell not OTA to update the first available and flashable Android 7 ver
P.S. Where on Sammobile are the download files? Can’t find it here, please post the link.
You can find it on XDA forum
No sign of it in NZ after some places were reporting it as being open in more countries.
I worked update over odin and now worked through the registration of beta and the update has been downloaded 92 mega in size and are now download updated again in size 300 mega … Thanks
give us the Link ?
from where i can download this firmware?
will samsung launch a beta prgram for the galaxy s6?
if someone has it already, please share it with SamMobile, for the people who are outside UK to get the chance to download it.
impossible
but flashing MM 6.0.1 official BTU firmware will surely grant you Beta registration and all the OTAs afterwards!
I just registered with my international S7 Edge from Slovenia and it was flashed first time with leeked beta 7.0 from england thro odin, so hope they pick me this time, so i get all updates. jeeejjj…
allreadey downloading update…
Taiwan please!
Samsung probably won’t expand to new countries any time soon. Samsung Philippines did tell a customer that this week might see them getting the beta, but we guess they might have been talking about this one from the UK being reopened. Fingers crossed. 🙂
are you guys gonna share the new update beta 3 ?
Sorry, we do not have any beta firmware.
