yes we all read that earlier
your a slow rss
Wild guesses thats all ... plus releasing a phone just after holiday season ... nah you don't need to be an expert to understand that this is a wrong move ... especially for flagship phone ...
Might as well give our s4's away not even a year before the new gs5 comes out. What load of crap! Goodbye Samsung support for the gs4

That's Sony. HTC is doing same, but not Samsung.
I mean would be completely stupid to do so, like someone else said , after new year? c'mon, worst time ever.
Plus they would kill the S4 and Note 3 sales completely.
Might be true. I might be even interested, if they plan to do a decent exchange offer for the S4. Frak, I spent 600 bucks just couple of months ago....!
Lol and then S4 will be abandoned (?)

Lol, i wonder if samsung could be that stupid

Makes perfect sense. S4 sales are not meeting Samsung's expectations. So they want to introduce new phone.
Also isn't S4 was announced 10 months after S3. And same thing happening here. They are announcing S5 ten months after S4.
S3 was announced in May 2012 and S4 was announced in March 2013. Which makes S5 announcement near January 2014.
Samsung going to mess again... with its SoC Lol

If they do abandon it, let's say completely, don't forget the level of talent and the amazing work that is being done and will be done here on XDA! Let's not be hysterical here yet.
They need to step up their customer support but we need to be level headed and cool about things also.
We'll have kitkat, and who knows what happens after that!
And remember, even if samsung vanished overnight, you'll still have a lovely phone with a beautiful screen and lots of great apps to use!

So if that's the case, looks like we will see S5 and S6 both in same year.
This is bull$hit
Samsung is going on the wrong way...
I was really excited about the new sgs5.. but I think I will sell my s4 to get the Nexus 5.
Too many headaches recently
I do not know what this stupid policy, but Samsung from bad to worse. Samsung company that wants only money
how come? the S4 really sucks, i mean the battery life etc., i think samsung need a saver to beat rivals

Allow me to take you Into the world of AT&T. Look at the previous just a little less than a month ago the galaxy S5 was the last one to get 5.0 it was also the last one to get the 4.x update. Look at the Note series it was one of the last ones to get the 5.0 update. Of course it will happen and of course we're impatient but rightfully so. We wait longer than anyone else.

I prefer a refined version with fewer bugs than getting it quickly. Heck, it seems they should have held off on lolipop till they got it right. As it stands they are now getting complaints from 2 sides rather than one.

Att isn't refining **** on the software, if anything they are bogging it down with bloatware and spyware. They just don't like pushing updates when they become available for some reason.

Given the known issues with 5.0 I feel carriers will push to get the patches out, hopefully 5.1.1 will roll out very quickly given the issues. I also think the Note 4 5.0 was put on hold, perhaps to go 5.1.1 instead to fix the known issues.

Umm.... Note 4 5.0 was rolled out on ATT quite some time ago. I've had my S6 since launch day, and my Note 4 probably had LP for around a month before I even switched. Aka 2 months ago.

You're right, they don't refine it. They test it, then make Samsung refine it. Then retest it again. Then release it after however many cycles it takes to approve the update refinements. Its not a matter of pushing updates when they become available, but about pushing them when they finally pass ATT quality control.

Don't need to go look at it..... I had the device. I did not experience those issues.
People take an extreme exaggeration on what they believe goes on behind the scenes and base it on their frustrations with a device or experience. Just because there was issues with a release does NOT mean they don't have a QC system in place. You're a fool if you think otherwise. That's like saying that because those Toyotas had the brake issue that Toyota doesn't implement a QC system... When Toyota basically invented the QC system.....

Google does the update and then sends it to Samsung for testing. IF Samsung decides the update is worthy and fits into their business plan for the life of the phone, they will test the update and correct things that are specific to the S6. IF that is completed then they send the update to Verizon, who in turn, decides if it fits in their business plan and the planned end of life for the product. If Verizon decides to pass it along then they update the code with their specifics and then they release it to the phones.
All of that has to go good before we knaves might see an update.
Unfortunately Android updates and timeline does not fit into the end of life plans for phones by the carriers. That is why we usually only get one or two updates.
Just saw this while searching online tonight.

Another bit of a tease http://www.theregister.co.uk/2016/02/16/samsung_starts_marshmallow_upgrades/
Just wanted to see if devs are still going to be developing for this device with all the issues that are STILL happening apparently. It's such a shame because I absolutely love this phone. TEKs and OVERDRIVE roms looked real promising. I would just to keep a phone for 2 years if of developing is going to die off.
well considering a 2nd recall by samsung will most likely happen within the next few days according to t-mo. i would say the development for the n7 is done period. i got a feeling the n7 won't be back on the market after this either. samsung will probably scrap em all and move on to the s8 or even the note8 which will most likely need to be renamed as this whole thing has literally damaged the notes name.

The Note4 is my daily driver again, took back my replacement Note 7 yesterday.
It's basically got all the functionality where it really matters, the S-Pen.
The other features that were heavily marketed were of no consequence to me.
I definitely notice the difference between the two as for overall performance, but, it's not an awful experience by any stretch.
Throw your ROM of choice on the Note4 & ya got yourself a very comparable experience.

My phone before this was actually a note 4 and the only reason I went to a note 7 was because my phone was stolen. I was running abstrak rom (now discontinued). I'm probably going to see what mm roms they have for it now. Since I have to purchase another note 4, it will probably be on mm and I dont even know if it's rootable. My old note 3 and 4 were excellent phones, it just pisses me off that Samsung stops updates for older phones basically forcing you to upgrade phones. That being said, I'm sure the note 4 will never get a future update.
And, lights out.......

You guys believe a Note 7 V3 will ship with rootable firmware?
I seriously doubt it, we caught a lucky break on this one & some on V2 were left out in the cold w/a phone dead for development.
It's a nice phone without root, Package Disabler apps help a lot,along with a decent Ad Blocker, but, not enough for Round 3 on the exact same phone.
I'll check in on the next iteration,the Note 8,or whatever they'll call it.....

When Samsung has a major fiasco they recall all the product gather all the staff in the court house and destroy the product in front of them and the manager of that department is then banned from the company for life. Korean custom. Not only did the guy lose his job he disgraced his Family for generation to come. Going back to Note 7 the product is being discontinued it was announced in German newspapers today
GREAT!! *sarcasm*
My Note 5 was messing up and I got the 7 for the upgrade.
I'll have to debate this, as mine was one of the ones that wasn't a replacement or recalled. But with no rooting ability, or way to drop back a version to gain root...might have to go back to the Note 5.
I never even attempted to try the software update. I didn't like the stupid green battery icons or grouped notifications. I still have my v2 on original release firmware with updates blocked. I like the phone uprooted but I do not like the current software for it. It's a shame because I love phone otherwise, but without future root to make those small tweaks on the v3, I think I'll wait until I find something I really like. I've always been a Samsung guy that being said I'm not a real Fan of pure Google type phones. For some reason I really like touchwiz (ya I know).

I have the same concern. I am going to attempt to get a loaner phone from t-mobile so I can return my note 7 asap in case they stop the returns.
I don't understand what's the rush? If there's a recall you can return your phone any time, there isn't a return window.

Right now this is a voluntary return and not a mandatory recall. If things comes out to be the worst then there will be another mandatory recall. So why not wait to see what happens before doing anything?

We don't know yet. Samsung's wordings seems to show that they will be resuming manufacturing of the Note after setting up better QC. But they can change plans very quickly at this point in time. So we don't really know what is going to happen at this point in time. If they are discontinuing the Note at this early point in time then there will be a mandatory return type recall.

I don't know if you are joking or not. But if you are not joking then your Note will be the first confirmed China made T-Mobile Note 7 to have this problem. Would like to know if this is true.
If you want to return then either Samsung 7 edge or LG V20. Samsung 7 Edge can use the Gear Fit2 and Gear VR.

I can't tell if that is a pixel issue or glass separating from screen issue. Either case has nothing to do with battery over heating. This is not from over heating battery problems.
Regardless which one is the issue these are warranty issues and can return (under T-Mobile's new return policy for Note 7) or exchange. If want to exchange under warranty then you can return device and get a loaner phone from T-Mobile to use until new Notes start manufacturing again or wait for recall. That is unless you want another device then take advantage T-Mobile's return new policy for the Note 7 and get another device.
Again: This is a manufacturing defect and not an over heating battery issue.

I just contacted T-Mobile on their twitter help page. Apparently they don't have a return window for the replacement units either. So if for any reason you're not confident in the phone, you can take it in for a refund and exchange. It is a voluntary return at this point and not a recall, but they will allow a full refund outside the 14 day window for the foreseeable future. So we should be able to hang out to our phones until the v20 comes out from what I understand.

I knew this had nothing to do with the recall just someone trying to return a phone out of the 14 day return window

Excuse me.... I don't want to just return out of the 14 day window... personally love the note series I've had the 3,4,5,and now two 7s my 4 was rooted running overdrive n5 port till I could buy the note 5........ And this has to do with battery overheating because if it wouldn't have gotten hot the adhesive wouldn't not have bubbled..... as there was no issue before........... I really wish I would have just kept the v1 note 7 since mine was a China model with no issue

I don't understand what's the rush? If there's a recall you can return your phone any time, there isn't a return window.

Its more of a confidence thing at this point. The phone has this black cloud over it (metaphorically). I'm tired of the jokes and the Note 7 memes popping up everywhere and co-workers asking if the phone has blown up yet. I know the chances of the phone burning up are slim to none, but now I'm paranoid and constantly checking to make sure the phone isn't heating up. I love the phone, but it's rapidly becoming a love/hate relationship to the point I'm starting to resent the damn thing, as dumb as that sounds. If people want to keep their phones, more power to them. I'm just frustrated and over the whole thing.
