My S7 edge is a Verizon branded phone as it was originally used on that provider. I have since ported it over to use on tracfones network was it was approved to work on that network. Which it has for the most part minus a few small details. My question is do I download the Verizon based Oreo update or some other one altogether since I’m no longer using Verizon with this phone.
