Been losing service constantly since latest update yesterday- notice it more so when wi-fi on as well- not as bad when it is off- but still always "searching for service " which was never an issue before the latest update

Me, too.

My S7 Edge can't seem to find 4G service. It goes back and forth between 3G, 1X and nothing.

If it does find 4G service, it disappears in a few minutes.

I really notice it when leaving my house or anywhere I'm on wifi. It won't connect to a mobile network for about 5 minutes.And then, it's sketchy at best. Makes it kind of impossible to use apps like Waze.

I had an S6 edge before and had no problems in the same areas.

I'm also getting the dropped calls issue and problems with people being able to hear me.

I've removed and reinserted the sim card with and still have the issues.

Double check your preferred network settings, be sure it is set to LTE/CDMA.  Sometimes after updates or spontaneously for no discernible  reason, mine will revert to Global and that seems to cause issues.  Setting it back to LTE/CDMA seems to resolve a lot of problems.

I ran a health check.

It said nothing was wrong.

Still keeps seeing 4g network but any app running will show an error relating to network connection. It'll show 3 g for a while and will stay on that for bit then 1x or nothing.
