[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] kmfdmpig:
At least for me they specified that I needed to order for my own carrier. As you say though, there are other benefits of ordering through the site.

I assume that means it's a new device, not a refurb. It also means we can get the promotions (free Gear VR for me).
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] michaelgcarro:
For sure! It also means it's shipping directly from Samsung's mobile division, so it should ship quickly. I know people were impatient in the past waiting for Insights to send then their tracking info. I like this way a lot better.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] kmfdmpig:
Yes. It seems like a fast process. They sent the email late on Wednesday night. I saw it Thursday morning and ordered Thursday morning. It has already shipped and should be here by next Tuesday, so 4-5 days total, which is good.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] 1Zero3forlife:
My wife just noticed that the email she responded to never sent and was in her draft folder, so she missed out.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Bisu2000:
May be some of you might help me out. Last week only I switched to AT&T from T-Mobile . Now I got a code for T-Mobile and instead of asking gen for at&t I just order the T-Mobile galaxy s7 with free gear. Now not sure what do I do now. Any suggestion please. I don't have any contract with at&t .
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Blackiedamus:
They sent the invite late Wednesday night for me, ordered that evening and it shipped on Thursday, arriving this morning via FedEx with the Gear VR. Not a bad deal. Got an S7 on Verizon.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] michaelgcarro:
Just to verify, you were promised a Note 7 before, correct? This isn't a new study, but the one from like August?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Blackiedamus:
Yep. Did the 3(?) surveys, then they told me to hold the line while that ship sank. They emailed me...lets say 5 weeks ago about the S7 edge and then about 3 weeks ago about the S7.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] michaelgcarro:
Wow, what a wait. Well at least you finally got something! I'll buy that Nexus 6P from you if you're an S7 man now :)
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Blackiedamus:
I'll be putting it on Swappa in the next day or so.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] michaelgcarro:
PM me the link if you could.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] AptLogic:
Any way for me to get in the insights program without an invite? I'm really interested in seeing what new stuff Samsung will be offering in the future.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Blackiedamus:
Best advice I have is to email them and tell them you're interested in surveys. I know it's invite only at this point in time.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] yarnsrj:
That's what I did and I got in.. However it took over a year because they said they'd already had their quota for participants at the time.

sent from Ms Note 5
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] jellybear456:
Just received an invite for a new s7 edge yesterday. I was originally supposed to receive a note7 so I guess this is the consolation prize after waiting for so long. If only I would've known I wouldn't have gone out and gotten a v20 a month ago. Ah well, looks like i'll have two devices now. Hopefully once these 6 months are up, I'll be able to get back in the program and receive the "note8":silly:
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
I'll buy your V20. Unless it's AT&T or Verizon version. Lol. Congrats
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] jellybear456:
Unfortunately it is AT&T or I might have taken you up on that offer:p
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] notoriousguy:
I have the LGV20 on Sprint that I am selling with the H3 headphones.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
I have GSM service so can't use Sprint, but thanks tho.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] michaelgcarro:
Merry Christmas everyone! Hopefully 2017 is filled with program invites and surveys. [emoji1]
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] ktraeson:
Do they email you when the 6 months are up? Or do I just have to request a deactivation code.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] sapps:
I've always had to contact them to request the deactivation code.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] theshopach:
I haven't been able to find an answer to this so I was hoping someone here might be able to help. If I install an app like Adhell (which doesn't have a white list function yet) or Disconnect Pro and give them admin privileges, will that interfere with the Insights app somehow?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] 1Zero3forlife:
I finally got my deactivation code today after two months of asking for it.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
They do take their time in giving that code now don't they. My first round in the program it was quick, second took 3 weeks, and I asked like every 3 days or so.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] spatadia14:
I received my S7 Edge right before Christmas but they still haven't sent any instructions for the insights app, not that I'm complaining, but does anyone else have the same situation?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] scorpio_bpl86:
you didn't get the instructions in the package itself ?

if not contact samsung
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Blackiedamus:
I followed the instructions inside the box and the email and haven't seen an update/survey since I got the phone 8 weeks ago.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] spatadia14:
They sent me a promo code to order from samsung.com so I got a retail box. There was nothing else in the email, it just sasid you will receive instructions later and still haven't got anything.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] WentzPhilly:
Currently an active participant and just received an email today for a survey, Samsung Mobile Insights_Device Feature Survey.

Could this be for a new phone project?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] mike.o84:
I got that same email, but figured it wasn't for a new project because it didn't state it in the email like previous first round surveys. Who knows though.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] FiendFyre:
Same here, it didn't mention any specifics.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Blackiedamus:
Also got that survey. Seemed pretty basic, and just doing fact finding.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] arrisbutter:
Is this thing still active? What do i need to do to enlist in the program?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] hvtoan:
S8 and S8 plus will be out in April
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pappy53:
My current S7 Edge promotion ends the last of May. Will I be able to stay in the program, and upgrade to a newer phone?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] stayley:
I was a participant in the s5 program but never received any other surveys, is it possible to get kicked from the program?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] jellybear456:
It is a possibility. I emailed them asking this and the woman who responded said once your current 6 months is up you may reapply for the program. My s7 edge promo ends in June, so by then we may have an option to receive the s8/s8+. Although, I would love to hold out for the Note 8 as I was originally supposed to receive a Note 7 through the program before the recall happened and they offered me an s7 edge.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] exhibit_II_user:
How would you reapply? My 6 months is up in a little over a week, and I'd love to get a chance with the s8...
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] MCarbo:
Months back I was fortunate enough to receive a Galaxy S6 Edge +. My 6 month obligation in the Insights program has passed and has been deactivated. Now I want to sell the phone to a friend who lives in Argentina but it first needs to be unlocked. No big deal. . .or so I thought. I contacted T-Mobile but they are unable to unlock the phone since it wasn't purchased from them and the IMEI is not showing up in their inventory. I called Samsung who told me they never unlock phones and that is strictly the responsibility of the carrier. I find myself between a rock and a hard place.

Anyone been in this situation before? Anyway out of this cell phone hell? Thank you!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
Was the phone used with a tmobile Sim during your 6 months? It is the law that they unlock it for free so fight them on it. The rule is all it has to be is activated on their network for at least 30 minutes. It's against the law for them to deny you. No Samsung wouldn't do it, unless it's a carrier free model. Good luck.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] MCarbo:
Yes, the phone was used with T-Mobile's SIM card. It was on their network. When it boots up the T-Mobile logo appears and their jingle plays. The phone number appears in my bill every month. The problem, at least according to T-Mobile, is that the phone's IMEI is not in their database as being part of their inventory. They aren't refusing to unlock it, they are telling me they aren't able to since it doesn't show up as being their phone. Multiple phone calls, various tech support agents, visit to the local T-Mobile store. . .all have resulted in the same shrug-of-the-shoulders reply. Frustrating as heck.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] exhibit_II_user:
My 6 months is up -- does anyone have the email address to contact Samsung with to get the code to deactivate the software?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
You won't get a response that way. Use the insights app to ask for deactivation code. Sends the IMEI number which they'll ask for before giving the code.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] exhibit_II_user:
Thanks so much!! I didn't think of doing it that way :)

You've participated in numerous studies, right? How do you let them know you want to participate again?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
I've been in 2 now. I just emailed after deactivating to let them know I'm interested, then the Notesplosion happened. Seems they have put this program on hold. I haven't gotten anything in 8 months from them.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] exhibit_II_user:
Well, hopefully we'll have another survey coming with the Galaxy S8 coming out. Fingers are crossed!!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] michaelgcarro:
I'm not sure who's all watching this thread, but with the Samsung Galaxy S8 event tomorrow, we should get the conversation going. When the Note 7 was launched, Samsung Insights started a Note 7 study rather quickly. Hopefully they do the same once the S8 launches in just a few weeks!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] mike.o84:
I have notifications turned on. Always curious when and what they start dishing out.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
I'm in the belief that now that Samsung has announced refurbished Note 7 sales that they will offer that to us in the program. Hoping so as my mom needs a new phone! Lol
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] michaelgcarro:
I haven't been keeping watch, but aren't the refurbished Note 7s going to be sold overseas? I think they'll want to start a study on S8 users, since it's such a dramatic release and important for Samsung after the Note 7 fiasco.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
No locations for sales have been posted yet. However, this wouldn't be a sale, so would that qualify? Not sure.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Saketh123:
Here's my experience with At&t note 5, I had to move to a different country on work and my insights program wasn't over yet. I still had 3 months left. I decided to unlock my phone as I can't use at&t overseas. I went to at&t device unlock portal and entered my imei and info. Got a unlock code in 2 days. I unlocked it and moved. I was using a different carrier and had absolutely no problems with samsung.

After 3 months and still having about 2 weeks left for the program to end, I sent a deactivation request to samsung and surprisingly I got the code in 2 days. They didn't even care about the 2 weeks. Also in the contract it says that doesn't matter what carrier you use, but you must have a active network with not being left out for 30 days.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] michaelgcarro:
What do you guys think of the Galaxy S8 after seeing it officially launch? I'm not sure how I feel about Bixby but I'm sure Samsung will want to see how people use it, so hopefully a survey is coming our way!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] mike.o84:
I'd gladly provide all the information they'd want on a nice S8+!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] michaelgcarro:
Maybe someone should email them or try to join the program and see what kind of response you get. I'm not sure what the status of the program is after this long break. [MENTION=4997760]Joehen873[/MENTION] knew someone from Samsung who runs the program but he hasn't been on XDA for over a month. Maybe he could check for us so we know if the program still exists or not.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Joehen873:
Already on it bro. Its not supposed to be publicly released until 4 21 i think. So insights program wont see this phone until atleast May(just from previous experiences) but i will let you know. Im on here to get you guys info from my source there was some idiot a few pages back during note7 release who was talking trash and i walked away
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] michaelgcarro:
Awesome! Thank you, and let us know what he says!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
Don't blame you. That was bs. Thanks.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] SkyZero101:
All my correspondence with Samsung has just been automated replies.... Hopefully they continue with this program !
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
Well that solves that.....
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] exhibit_II_user:
Thanks, Joehen! Looking forward to hearing whatever you find out :) Your contributions to the forum are really helpful.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] cheetablaze:
I did 9 months of the Insights Program for my SGS 6, "They asked me to do another 3 months". Upon completion they said I would be guaranteed a new phone in the next survey. Haven't heard from them in 3+ months. Sent them an email to let them know I haven't died yet lol. Let's go SGS 8 survey!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] michaelgcarro:
Interesting that they targeted you for another 3 months. I haven't heard that before. Let us know if they reply!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Joehen873:
So guys now the insights program will be for a year not 6 months. Just found this out surveys are coming soon
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] michaelgcarro:
Great to hear! Thanks for letting us know! You're very valuable to this thread.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Joehen873:
It also looks like they will hit you up for surveys through out the year trial
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] sapps:
My wife got her first survey today. I've had 2 programs and haven't gotten a survey yet.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] leyvatron:
I just got a survey for the S8, S8+.

It says to fill the survey and I could possibly be a candidate for the phone. Fingers crossed for the s8+.

"As a part of the program, we will provide selected candidates one of Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus which you are required to install with Samsung Device Insights App. That will help us understand how you use your phones – things you like, things you don’t. After 12 months of using the phone as your primary device and meeting the program requirements, the phone will be yours to keep!"
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] michaelgcarro:
Nice! Good luck! I'm waiting anxiously for my own survey.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] spatadia14:
Just got the survey as well. Really hope to be selected, looking forward to all the new and cool features of the S8 and S8+!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] kcodya:
Got a survey! Now the waiting game.......
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] spatadia14:
Already got the survey, thanks for keeping us updated. I'm not in the loop as I was several months ago, but your help is greatly appreciated!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] babygirl0419:
Has anyone every recieved a Note 4 from this program?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] MicrosoftBug:
Doubtful but possible. The Note 4 is a new device though. I can't imagine Samsung wanting people to test outdated hardware.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] babygirl0419:
Ok. I got a survey yesterday as well. I had a note 3 and then I got a G3 back in October. Be nice to get a N4.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] malickie:
Seems like they send batch survey's at one time. I just got mine the yesterday day too and no where did they specify which phone they would be sending they just asked color preferences and which carrier your on. Was so very tempted to pick T-Mobile because of the unlocked bootloader but I figure AT&T would probably have a better chance with to get a phone regardless because they have a larger client base and have always had more selection of phones than T-Mobile. Regardless got an E-Mail back after taking survey that said it would be a couple of weeks before I would hear back from them after taking the survey.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
I think it's cute. We are like kids in a candy store. We all get the survey, and first thing we do is come here and tell everyone. Now we are all waiting to hear more. Sounds like it'll be a group of us that will heat or not. I also noticed some typos in my email, but sounds like it was mass sent. Like another person said, nothing too personal was asked. The most personal was address and phone number.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] monkor:
I miss the days of getting junk mail before I started sending it all back to them and they took me off lists. I sent massive amounts of junk mail back to them first class for a year until they completely stopped sending me it. Was a fun little exercise for a year or so. Now my mailbox is lonelier. Phishing scam would sate my appetite for junk, at least.

Back on topic, I think it's just for the Galaxy Note III and Galaxy S5. They stated somewhere in there that these would be the devices.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Ramhardy:
So they asked me what phone I was using during the survey, they asked what phone I was using now, I told them the note edge, and they asked what color, and an address, after the survey, they "Your responses are being assessed by our team to ensure you are a match for the program. The review process takes a few weeks due to limited inventory and high participation response.

If you are selected to be a participant, you will receive an acceptance email directly from our Mobile Insights team and when to expect delivery of your new smartphone. Please note, completion of the survey is not a guarantee of participation"

does that mean I'm getting a phone? lol
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Ramhardy:
i did the same thing, i got a note 4 and s5 active right now, I picked note 4 edge by accident, it wouldn't let me go back, so i just picked a color and they sent the thank you confirmation email,etc, they will assess, etc, will hear by in a few weeks etc, hopefully i'll get something back, i'll keep you posted.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] cheetablaze:
Oh crap, I only had the drop down box to select my current phone. I remember picking black or white, but there was nothing above it asking what I wanted to receive. Dear lord I'll probably get a flip phone that requires a data plan.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
Lol no, there wasn't a choice for the Note 3 or S5, those were just the 2 it said they offered. Fear not, if you're selected, you'll get one of those 2.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Ramhardy:
so no note 4 or note 4 edge if thats the current device that you have if we are lucky enough to be chosen for it? Because they did ask for current device and that's what I chose,and they asked for a color preference and carrier, but did not specify a device.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
Nope no offer of n4 or n4 edge
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Ramhardy:
not doubting, but how do you know if it's changed since the new year?

---------- Post added at 05:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:27 AM ----------

and about how long does it take to receive a confirmation whether you're in or not? I know it says a few weeks, but is there a more accurate #?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] moopile:
I first took a survey on 7/28/14 and was notified I would receive a Note 3 on 8/8/14 and after a shipping SNAFU it arrived on 8/11/14.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
I took the survey yesterday and that was the offer. I don't know how long it'll take. No one in the program has given a definite time frame. Sorry.

EDIT: didn't see moopile had put his time frame. Here's to hoping it's still the same! [emoji3]
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Ramhardy:
The email was a 2nd letter saying you passed the assessment etc or did they just tell you they're shipping you the phone? Thanks

I took it yesterday too, but I don't remember them asking me about what phone I want, they just asked what I had and carrier, and color

---------- Post added at 06:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:46 AM ----------

cross your fingers for me lol
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
No they didn't give me a choice of phone, just color. But it did clearly state it would be a Note 3 or S5.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] moopile:
The 2nd letter told me I was accepted, which device/color they were sending, and that I'd receive a UPS confirmation soon. I didn't get the confirmation until the next day due to an office SNAFU. They shipped it UPS Next Day Air on a Friday evening and I got it on a Monday @ 6:09pm.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Ramhardy:
Your responses are being assessed by our team to ensure you are a match for the program. The review process takes a few weeks due to limited inventory and high participation response.

If you are selected to be a participant, you will receive an acceptance email directly from our Mobile Insights team and when to expect delivery of your new smartphone.

thats what they told me
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] moopile:
I believe that's the one everyone gets upon completion of the survey.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] killerz298:
I missed out on the last round, got the email but never a survey. I just got the survey for S8, S8+ Did question 26 not work for anyone else? It said to choose all that applied but only allowed 1 selection for me. Best of luck everyone!!!!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] spatadia14:
I'm just hoping it's not like the last waiting game, where we just waited and waited til this day haha
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] leyvatron:
correct me if im wrong, but an early survey doesn't mean anything. Last yearI filled out a survey fairly early and individuals who filled the survey after me were getting phones.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] spatadia14:
Same here, said pick all but only let me select 1. Also the color question had coral blue as an option and as far as I know, that isn't a color option for the S8? Seems maybe they reused this survey and changed a couple things.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Joehen873:
They are doing a coral blue but i believe it wont be available until after the launch
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] scorpio_bpl86:
just got mine :)
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Joehen873:
You are right surveys dont mean anything. I mean its alaways good when you get one but its not a definite
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Rajnikant90:
Thanks

Can I get referal name if possible? Thanks
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] killerz298:
Agreed. Survey is better than no survey and 1 step further than I got last time.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] NAUjackfan:
Can I get referral from someone? Thanks.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] michaelgcarro:
Just got a survey as well. Interesting that it says to complete the survey on your current smartphone. I don't have my S6 anymore so I'm taking it on my Nexus 6P. I wonder if they're looking for Samsung Galaxy users?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pappy53:
By email, or on the Insights app?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] scorpio_bpl86:
email .

and they want you to take the survey on your phone only ( not on laptop or computer )

---------- Post added at 02:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:30 PM ----------

I hope not

I did my survey on my pixel xl
