Sooo... I was too lazy to go through 120 pages LOL... Is there still a way to get into this? I'd be happy to pay it forward if someone were kind enough to show me how to join...
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] samccfl99:
I asked when you got the email when they accepted your survey. Some in this round got the survey confirmation on May 13th. I know you got the confirmation email yesterday...Thanks.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Default001:
I am apparently getting an S7 Edge..
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] v3n0msn4k3:
Dang, lucky you.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] samccfl99:
THAT'S GREAT! CONGRATS! THERE IS HOPE!

Did you get the confirmation today and when did they accept your survey, may I ask?

Thanks

I AM STARTING TO THINK THEY DO NOT LIKE OLDER PEOPLE...HEY, I BEEN IN IT FOR OVER 30 YEARS...LOL
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Default001:
Ok, so I had turned in my application around a year ago. Got a survey in April and chose either the S7 or S7 EDGE. I was very disappointed when my brother received the Note and I didn't get accepted.

They must have been waiting for the S7 devices to come in. I got the email yesterday and it's for Sprint.

Thanks!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] samccfl99:
sent u a PM to explain it. i know that if someone uses the app for xda that it does not inform you of a PM.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] corey5188:
Can you shoot me the same pm? I got the email asking for referral, not sure how to use this thread to help...
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] samccfl99:
Thanks for the info. Now i am completely confused and there seems to be NO pattern as to who gets accepted...LOL. I feel better...LOL. Except for the fact that it seems like everyone got their confirmation yesterday...

Why would you want a Note5 instead of a S7E? 5.5" is big enough for me and I need an sdcard, but to each his own. ENJOY!!!

Oh, also they did give a round of S7's out in March...

I was just explaining to him how to start the process. you already know. i cannot give out any referrals anyway BECAUSE I AIN'T BEEN ACCEPTED YET...:crying::crying::crying::laugh::laugh::D
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] drew18:
Could someone send me a referral please? Thanks!!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] clydethecash:
Howdy,

I've been told this would be a great place to find a referral into the program. I'm still learning all the details, but I've been rolling with Samsung since the captivate came out (still got it, and it still works) so I'm all aboard.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] diehardbattery:
Thanks! Hopefully I can find a referral somehow. As I said I'll be more than happy to pay it forward if someone was generous enough.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] corey5188:
I see... well thanks man. Do you by any chance know how active members are on here with providing referrals? I assume that there are a lot more needing referrals than there are people providing them.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] samccfl99:
Don't know. The thread is active now because it seems Samsung has started to accept people into the program now again. I got my referral from someone I met in another thread. You can see already people are asking for referrals. They ain't any good unless you got the survey email anyway. I am a bit disillusioned because some people who got their acceptance email yesterday, got their survey acceptance email around the same time I did, but then again, some not... It is all so strange.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] s629c:
Anybody on att getting it?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] samccfl99:
So I just took a quick look back in the thread and they sent emails out:

02/11-12 S6

03/23 04/21/22 S7E

05/03 NOTE5

and now 06/10 these S7's and it seems 1 S7E

WHERE'S MINE???...LOLOLOL
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] corey5188:
Yeah, well I suppose if I'm unable to get a referral it won't be any huge loss. Would be super nice though. I see it as like a "pay it forward" kind of thing. I'll be sure to give out my request referrals in this thread should I receive it here.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] ILuvRice:
I guess I am confused. I assume if I got the email yesterday, that would be the day they accepted my survey.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Samsung1993:
Hello!

I was referred to this thread in the hopes of getting a referral link for Samsung Insights? Would anyone be able to tell me more about the process if you've already received your phone?

Thanks!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] StrikkerXX:
I was referred to this thread to hopefully get a referral link for the Samsung insights program as well! I would be more than happy to pay it forward if I get the opportunity
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] :
Got the post link from reddit

Does anyone here have a referral "code?" and can share it with me?

Also, does anyone know if this is a US only thing?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] cold tortilla:
Could I please get a referral?

Thanks

Yes. US only.

Hello, long time reader of XDA here. I would love to get a referal. If anyone would kindly PM me one I will pay all of mine forward here as well. I really would like to get off of this S3 of mine. Thanks guys.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] IncomparableBen:
Hello, I would like to receive a referral code, and I will gladly pay it forward. PM me please, thank you.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Masonlovell11:
Are there any referral codes left? Could someone explain how this works in a PM please? Thank you!:)
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Deksloc:
Adding my name to the list on the off chance someone is in the program and is willing to refer me. Thank you!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] v3n0msn4k3:
Anyone received their tracking number email yet? I got accepted on June 10 for the S7.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] joshua14:
A referral isn't absolutely needed. The first time I got in the program I had just recently registered a phone and filled out a review. So I got an invite directly from them for the survey and left the referral blank. That was for an s5. You all need to send an email to Samsung Insights Study to request to be in the program and they will more than likely send a survey email within a few weeks.

Ah alright, longer than I thought. I already went ahead and bought a case and screen protector.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Default001:
I need a little help here guys.

Will this Sprint S7 Edge only activate on the regular Sprint service? I see its not listed on the Boost BYOP list.

Thanks to anyone who can clear up my confusion!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] lagurl:
I'll just upgrade to S7
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Default001:
I forgot about Ringplus. Has anyone successfully activated their Sprint S7 on this service?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] samccfl99:
Part of the survey is that they ask you who your provider is, so I am confused. I know the ATT model runs on certain networks. I am fairly sure the T-mobile model runs on ATT, the S5 does. I never understood why Samsung makes so many models for each provider. They should all be "F" models as far as I am concerned. Won't get one of those in this program...LOL.

Be happy you are getting one!!! Enjoy...

MAYBE NEXT MONTH GUYS. THE HISTORY SHOWS THEY USUALLY ONLY SEND OUT THE CONFIRMATION EMAILS ON ONE DAY ONLY...:crying::D
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] rahilm:
I just received my shipment notification :D
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] v3n0msn4k3:
Just got shipment notification as well. Should arrive by the 20th. Black s7 for ATT.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Entew:
It appears that the carrier question is to determine which version of the phone to send you. I will be using the phone on Ringplus, so I'll select Sprint. I am very interested in this program, so I read through all 124 pages of the thread to get to here. I sent Samsung Insights an email today requesting participation. When should I expect to receive a reply? Once I receive the reply, will I need to give them a referral?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] john94si:
Got my shipping number.. says it will be here in 3 days.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] slickrick95:
Got my tracking number as well.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] rahilm:
It's probably not possible to get in on the free Gear VR promo right? I think it requires a receipt
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] rthmn3021:
Got my tracking number but when I type it into https://www.fedex.com/apps/fedextrack/? it says "This tracking number cannot be found, please check the number or contact the sender". Does this happen to anyone else?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] slickrick95:
It probably has not been entered into the system yet... Give it a day... It will show.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] ktraeson:
Got my shipping info today!!! Should be here on the 16th
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] john94si:
I have a plan to get the promo.. yes you need a receipt..
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] slickrick95:
What is the plan? Lol
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] lagurl:
Yep I just upgraded to S7 and I had to show my receipt for the VR and it was approved
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] john94si:
Btw. I got an alert that someone must sign for the FedEx delivery. Luckily I work from home.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] mike.o84:
When they sent me my Tablet, I had it rerouted to a FedEx store and then picked it up after work. Option for those that can't be home.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] v3n0msn4k3:
S7 is out for delivery
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] lovemankoo:
I know Samsung is giving us this Free but frustrated the way they are doing this...sent me two times survey in last 2 month and nothing ..First choose S7Edge and Note 5..no luck than Note 5 and S7..no luck...Don't know how they are choosing people....
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] v3n0msn4k3:
Might help that I'm a platinum member of theirs? It says in the terms that platinum members have priority for receiving products for free or something.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] ktraeson:
Got my s7 yesterday!!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Default001:
No clue either. I waited almost a year before getting a survey. Chose the S7 or Edge and they sent out the Note 5 (which I didn't get). A few months later, I got an email saying the Edge was headed my way.

Just received it today, so no, there isn't a rhyme or reason.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] lovemankoo:
Thank you For your reply!! Did you get S7 Edge today?? When did you fill the Survey?? I filled my survey on April 23rd...For S7Edge and Note 5 (1st and 2nd choice).

---------- Post added at 06:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:55 PM ----------

Ok, I will look into my membership.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Default001:
Same for me. Survey was filled in April (my brother did the same survey). He chose the S7 or Note 5 of which they sent him a Note 5.

I received my acceptance Email 6/10 for the S7 Edge. Phone shipped 6/14 and was delivered today.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] rahilm:
Got the S7 today. Pretty nice phone. Going to give the Gear VR promo a shot using the packing slip in the box. Worst they can do is say no, right? :)
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] v3n0msn4k3:
Good idea. Just got mine too, I'll try that out. Where do you go to redeem the Gear VR?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Aqua_Peace:
Refferal

Re: Referral,

I have an old phone. :crying: Phone is so old it comes in a bag and weighs 5 lbs lol

I would love to take part in this program.

If anyone could please pm me with a referral. I would appreciate it.

Thanks

I hope asking is within the rules
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] rahilm:
samsungpromotions.com

I tried and got an invalid IMEI, so I had to file an appeal. Let me know how yours goes. Seems like they may have a database of IMEIs that were actually sold through retailers.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] 1Zero3forlife:
You got a free phone and now you are trying to push getting the VR. Dumb in my opinion, they may not ask you to participate again in the future. I'm on my 2nd phone with insights and they sent me a free Gear watch and tablet in the past. Others pushed and bothered them and never got responses or asked to join again.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] v3n0msn4k3:
I find it interesting that my s6 edge performs at the same speed if not faster than my s7. Very weird. Also, my s7 heats up way more easily.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] john94si:
I didn't realize the S7 was smaller than my iphone 6+ and the battery has been **** so far. I am glad i didnt pay for this device. I hope the waterproof part works that's the entire reason i wanted it for skiing and boat days.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Default001:
How bad of battery life are you getting? I've not experienced abnormal life on my Edge...although it does have a slightly bigger battery.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] blmille2:
Interested in Samsung Insight

I just heard of Samsung Insight, and I'm really intrigued. My wife and I have both been involved in secret shopping, so this is right down our alley. If you have any spare referrals that are burning a hole in your pocket, we would be willing to help out! ;)
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] samccfl99:
I think it is probably because IT CAN'T BE ROOTED YET!!! OR EVER! Too much useless $-H-I-T running on there. Yes it is a very powerful phone, BUT Google and Samsung are ruining the purpose of Android by blocking our Devs from doing their "hobby". Only one of these phones that might be worth it would be a "F" model.

Amazing how people can complain about getting this phone...for free (not singling you out mind you). I would be happy to have gotten one (not a S7 though, who wants to be strapped with another 5.1" phone again?....Not me). Just be happy you can sell it in 6 months and get one you want!

AND YES, I AM A MISERABLE PISSED OFF PERSON WHO DID NOT GET SELECTED....LOLOLOL. I REALLY WOULD LIKE TO REPLACE MY G900A...:D

ALTHOUGH I REALLY DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO REPLACE IT WITH...

ENJOY YOUR FREE PHONES PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] 1Zero3forlife:
^this...be happy you got a FREE phone.

How do you get platinum membership? I was a silver a month ago and became a platinum sometime since then. Just checked and I'm platinum and never got a new phone or anything. Just want to know to make sure i keep it.

I also made the mistake of using a different email than the one on my Samsung account :/ maybe that's why i got nothing
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] samccfl99:
I know he was agreeing with me, hence the Funny emoticons...LOL.

What is this Silver and Platinum levels you are referring to? I did create a Samsung account when i first got my G900A. I guess I still have the account and I did tie it to my primary email, which I did use for the survey.

So I wonder how everyone is doing with their June free phones? It looks like only one person posted that they got a S7E.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] undertaker2k14:
Advise everyone to disable facebook on the phone asap, that alone is responsible for a lot of the performance and battery drain on the phone. I like the phone overall but may keep the N6P as my primary driver and this as my secondary work phone, the N6P just feels smooth at all times despite having the older 810 chip.This does stutter a bit sometimes which is surprising given the mighty 820 chip.

Also the phone got down right scorching hot when I first got it and I was using fast charging and updating it at the same time.Hasn't happened after initial setup though.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] samccfl99:
FB is FROZEN on my phone (rooted). Don't need it there and it really does drain the battery even when not being used. I surely found that out a long time ago. There are some crappy written apps out there that do things that they should not with memory leaks and everything else. Just gotta try to pin down what is draining the battery when that happens.

So I am patiently (not) waiting to see what comes out next month since they seem to release phones on a monthly basis. I do not know how much longer I can wait. Not going to wait forever just for a free phone...I just got a nice 18 month zero interest shiny new credit card that I can use (for a new older phone though)...::crying::cool::D

Well the s7 works well under water but you can't takes pics at the screen senses touch when it gets wet. Only video works
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] s629c:
Use the volume buttons. Btw, any damage while using underwater is not covered by warranty
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Saketh123:
Inside the phone, there are bleed marks. They turn red when water touches them, this helps Samsung determine if the phone has been damaged by water. Samsung stated that the phone is water resistant but not waterproof. It also stated that any damage caused by water is not covered under warranty. :good:
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] joshua14:
Yep, if you want to use it under water buy a waterproof clear case to put it in. No sense in risking it.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] undertaker2k14:
My biggest insight/advice to samsung will be to get rid of touchwiz and the bloatware, or atleast have it in the minimal form that exists on my tab s2. There is no reason that the S7 should feel more sluggish than my N6P but it does.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Saketh123:
I highly recommend NOT to press ANY buttons under water. Every button has a rubber gasket behind it that stops from water from seeping into the device. If a user presses the button under water then the button moves in causing the rubber gasket also to move. When the gasket moves underwater the pressure of the water can make water easily seep in. So it's not recommended to press buttons under water but rain is ok. :good::laugh:
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] samccfl99:
Couldn't wait around with this game with Insights anymore. Getting a pristine N910T (Note 4) to replace my G900A. Dont know what i would do if they send me a confirmation. Dont really want a stock phone, no matter how fast it might be. This will be good enough for me. Plenty of roms to play with.

Good Luck All!

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] 1Zero3forlife:
You guys don't need a referral, I have received 2 phones without filling in the referral section.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] joshua14:
Don't put anyone's name on here either, even if it's only a last name. People could just add a first name. In the survey it states that either you requested to be part of the program OR someone referred you. A referral isn't necessary. I've seen more s6 edge plus surveys get accepted but this new email states s7, note 5, s6, s6 edge, and the s6 edge plus. So I bet s6 options will result better. They let you pick 3 choices now too instead of only 2.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] 1Zero3forlife:
That's sweet they give 3 options now
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] s629c:
