    Post Note 7 recall

    You do realize the Note is a fairly unique device, right? Not many smartphones have ever had a stylus. Sooo... I don't understand your argument.

    It does specifically state in the approval email that it could take up to 12 weeks, so just don't get your undies in a bunch! :laugh:

    I forgot to check my status, because previously they emailed me, but it looks like what I did worked as it says APPROVED.

    Post Promotions shipping fast!!

    I'll have to check that out if I get rejected. I do know I made a PDF of the order from att.com (just shows that it was shipped), but I'm betting they won't accept that. I saw the terms said I'm allowed to resubmit two times before it gets permanently rejected.

    Post Promotions shipping fast!!

    Ugh... the only "receipt" that I have is the packing slip from AT&T that says everything but SM-N930A on it, but I too got rejected because it doesn't show that full device name specifically.... it says PHO SAM GALAXY NO N9. I'd like to say shame on Samsung for not having their **** in gear to...

    Post Galaxy Note 7 Performance Issues

    I'm going to be one who jumps aboard the "I have zero problems with my Note 7" train. Mine has been unbelievably fast, responsive, battery life is great, etc. I'm enjoying this device very much.

    Post Screen on time

    No ****, eh? I am beyond happy with the SOT with this phone... hell, the battery period. My POS LG G3 couldn't go more than 3.5 hours SOT with light to moderate usage.

    Post Any AT&T phones shipped yet?

    I can bust that theory, because I ordered mine at an AT&T store (authorized reseller, not corporate) and mine shipped UPS 2-day Air.

    Post Any AT&T phones shipped yet?

    I also checked MyUPS and I'm showing a Friday delivery of my black Note 7, shipped via 2nd Day Air. I ordered 1 or 2 days after the initial window. AT&T's website just says Preparing to Ship as well.

    Post Wireless charger

    Knockoffs are exactly why I did not buy a cheaper version elsewhere. I caved and paid $42 at Target. I actually decided to buy it at Target instead of Amazon, because if I don't like it, it's easy to return. I've read some reviews that say larger phones can make the charger wobble a bit, so...

    Thread AT&T Promotion

    So, AT&T confuses the hell out of me... Their press release and promo page both say you can get the Gear S2, but if you order anywhere else, they offer the Gear Fit 2... totally different products. On AT&T's website, I cannot find the Gear S2 unless I do a Google search. Even then, it won't...

    Post [Q] Ir blaster learning codes??

    I played around with it a bit more last night and the Universal Remote feature is wonderful. You can setup your remote control however you want, placing predefined icon buttons or you can custom label your buttons. You then have the phone learn the IR frequency from whatever remote in...

    Post [Q] Ir blaster learning codes??

    Just tried it out about 20 minutes ago myself and it worked great. I have a Samsung TV and a Denon AVR and it found both without issue. The app kind of sucks, since I can't change the input of my AVR, but the functionality of the IR was just fine for me. I sit about 10 feet away from my TV.

    Post G3 on ATT (for when it happens)

    Yup! I just walked in around 10:15am (store opened at 10) and they had at least 5 black phones. I didn't peek into their phone supply cabinet much. I couldn't be happier to have gotten a brand new flagship phone for $55. That beats me getting my Galaxy S3 for $150 on launch thanks to Amazon...

    Post G3 on ATT (for when it happens)

    Got my G3 and so far I could not be more pleased! This phone is far superior to my Galaxy S3, even if it isn't the best in every category. I don't care that the screen isn't the brightest, but it sure is brighter than my S3 and that's good enough for me. So far no lag, I have felt it get a...

    Well, I stopped at Best Buy again today to see if they had 4.4.2 available and sure enough, they do. He told me the update came in yesterday. I had him update my phone and I'm happy to say I have KitKat on my SGH-I747. Everything seems MUCH smoother. Bluetooth actually works and connects on...

    Alright... The rep called me back to let me know what's up! Apparently AT&T is having problems pushing the update at this time and has no ETA when they'll have their end resolved. She suggested I go to Best Buy and have them update my phone through Samsung Experience. The store closest to me...

    Post [Q] 4.4.2 update question

    Well, I called and spoke with someone and AT&T has the ability to push updates manually if your phone isn't taking it. While she was waiting for the program to open, she was reading over the change log to see what all changed. She couldn't get her program to open, so she went to seek help...

    If I get some free time today, I'm going to contact AT&T to see if something is whacked on my account or if I need a new SIM. I swear that my original Galaxy had this same problem and they fixed something. I'll let you know what they have to say. Also, so long as you follow instructions to the...

    Post [Q] 4.4.2 update question

    I'm with Tony here. This is my main phone so I'm not looking to break anything, let alone completely wipe my phone with a manual install like that. Not at this time, anyway. I've thought about it, but am shying away from that for now.

    I'm in the exact same boat as you. I can't quite figure out why OTA nor Kies will work. I've also got 4.3 on my phone. I was actually about to post this up because I waited several days in hopes that something would fix itself, but got nothing. I've changed the date out to July 4th (Trying...

    Thread [Q] Battery Charging Question

    I have a dumb question about charging the battery... I'm not very familiar with Li-ion battery technology. When charging over USB, the USB port can't provide enough amperage to charge the phone quickly. I had my phone plugged in for 3 hours and only got a 20% charge. My original Galaxy...

    I actually just got a tracking # now and it was shipped today. Maybe they made the label yesterday? I'm in WI and mine is shipping from Ft. Worth, TX. It's being shipped standard overnight like yesterday's batch. Jun 21, 2012 7:36 PM Picked up FORT WORTH, TX

    You know what.... that's a damn good question. I didn't even think about that because I was excited it is going to ship! My friend's order says it shipped today, but he has a tracking #. Maybe mine will update to say it shipped today when I get that #?

    My White GS3 is about to ship as well!! Woohoo!! A friend of mine who ordered white on 6/8 has his shipped as well... he actually has a tracking #. He also ordered a blue for his wife on I believe 6/16 or 6/17 and that one is on backorder yet.

    Is that all that is involved? Is it the same thing that is in Cyanogenmod? I know I've tried out the tethering option in CM7 on my Captivate and it works great. (Menu -> Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Tethering & portable hotspot)

    Post Design flaw with regards to the camera lens?

    I have owned the iPhone, iPhone 3G, 3GS, and 4S and ALL of them got smudges on the lens when touched. That is what happens when you touch the lens with your fingers/hands or lint from your pocket gets a chance to play. With that aside, I haven't fully understood why phones need to have the...

    It's only a matter of time before AT&T catches on to that scheme. Also, if you're into putting a new ROM on your phone, you can easily get rid of the bloatware that way. I know I will likely be putting CM9 on when it becomes available.

    I used to be an employee for AT&T for over 4 years, and I'm sorry, but you do NOT get a discount on brand new equipment. AT&T is not that generous to its employees. The ONLY time I got a discount on brand new equipment, was the original iPhone which had a $50 off thing. Not once did I get 60%...

    I would say you run a slight risk of not getting it on launch, that's all. We don't know how many phones Samsung has produced for each carrier, nor do we know how many preorders will be out in the wild before launch. I know when I preordered my Transformer Prime, I got in just in time...

    Ah damn, I must have all of these acronyms mixed up. LOL! I know whatever is in the 4S makes the data connection about 3x faster than my HPSA Captivate. I dislike the fact that Apple gave in and put 4G on it, when it isn't a true 4G device.
