    Samsung is no longer exchanging for new Note 7's

    I bought my (Verizon) Note directly from Samsung online. When I called their 800 # this evening to set up the exchange of my phone, I was told that now that the government is involved, they are no longer able to exchange for new models. My only option was to exchange for an S7 or Edge, or return...

    Do you believe these stories?

    We have all seen the first few phones that were damaged before Samsung did the voluntary recall. All were in houses.. Nothing damaged but the phone. The phones didn't get any worse but since the news of the recall and grand ideas of possible payday it seems like the damage caused by the same...

    Samsung to implement a kill switch tactic soon

    That's what Erica the technology nerd who likes to film stuff said in her YouTube channel. After a particular period of time, when Samsung kills the switch, we won't be able to use the Note 7. So those planning to keep theirs, better think twice.

    Help Slow Hotspot?

    Yes, I'm still using it. There are circumstances that kinda force my hand for now. I plan to exchange it, just not immediately. Having said that, does anybody else notice slow hotspot speeds? I'm using FoxFi with a paid key. Directly on my device I average 15-16Mbps down at home. Using my...

    Wireless Charging

    I've seen several folk on various news sites, here and other forums etc claim they're not worried about their battery exploding because they're using the wireless charger. Is this a proven "fix" that lessens the chance of the issue occurring or is this just an internet theory?

    My Experience with Note 7 recall and Verizon

    Went to the store where I bought my Note 7 today (bought it about 2 weeks today). They exchanged the Note 7 for a phone of my choice and I picked the Edge 7, figuring its the closest to the note. As far as I can tell the only difference is the lack of the S-pen on the edge. When the Note 7's...

    Anyone in the same situation as me?

    I preordered a blue coral AT&T note 7 at Aug 5th, and I haven't got my phone yet. But for other colors, most users get their device early. Samsung says that first priority will be to support current Note7 owners with replacement phones, which means that although I have waited longer, I'm at low...

    U. S. Government Involved In Recall

    The U. S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is now involved in the Note 7 recall and those of us in the U. S. could be looking at months instead of weeks before we can get a replacement Note 7. I was hoping to keep using my Note 7 until a replacement is available, but that prospect is getting...

    How to tell a new SAFE Note 7 from the "explosive" version...

    Okay folks, this article just hit and hopefully the labeling will be global: http://bgr.com/2016/09/09/galaxy-note-7-recall-replacements/ So there will be a sticker with a black square on it, and perhaps a second sticker with an "S" on it.

    So How Many Of You Are Currently Using Your Note 7

    I am debating whether to just put it back in the box and go back to my Nokia 1020 in the interim. I have turned off fast charging and only use wireless charging but wonder if I should sleep with one eye open, thoughts?

    UK Samsung recall

    Well that was easy enough. Very impressed. Took 20 minutes this morning to get through on their dedicated recall line. Door to door exchange sorted for 3/10/16 so all I have to do is back this one up. I'll get a text with an hour time slot and swap for a shiny new note 7 at the door. Keep my...

    I have turned in my ISIS Note

    It's official, I've returned the phone as of a few hours ago and am back on my note 4. One thing that the Verizon rep told me, that if you go through Samsung for your replacement, you will get your phone by as soon as next week. If you go through Verizon then you'll be waiting till at least...

    My Galaxy Note 2 has finally died (will not boot up even in safe mode and hard reset, tried everything), it had started switching off a few times over the last week or 2 and on the day the Note 7 was supposed to be launched in the UK it failed to come back on at all. It has been looked after...
