If chosen for insight you get to order the device after the first promotions are over. You don't get the device at launch.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] jkxs:
Eh it depends, I think for the note 20 insights Samsung sent out insight codes near the end of the peorder period so people could still get $200 accessory credit on their order. I don't think that was the case with the S21 though and I have never heard of an insight program for the fold 2.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] bschai:
Hi,

I want to request for deactivation from samsung insight 3 or 4 weeks earlier so that I can join the next Samsung Insights for Galaxy Fold.

I read that there is the "deactivation" profile that I need to apply on my device. And someone also mentioned about "removing device from their Knox MDM system."

Are these two the same thing? Or I have to request them separately? I want to know what I say to them to completely remove samsung insights from my phone so I can re-sell or trade-in.

Thanks fo the help.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] runtohell121:
I'm trying to figure out that too right... I was able to get the Insight team to push a profile to deactivate my Note 20 Ultra; mentioning to them I wanted to use it as a trade in device for upcoming Z Flip or Z Fold. Under security and biometric setting, device admins, still shows KC and Knox Enrollment active and can't disable...

Edit: emailed and they replied back, told me to apply latest profile again - did the trick to remove all traces of the insight app and admin permissions from them.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] scorpio_bpl86:
they sent me the deactivation profile too

all set to trade-in now
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
The note 20 ultra I got at launch, with the promos, as well as S21U but since I got titanium, I didn't receive til middle of March.

I got the credits for both last 2 phones. Got headphones for both, but hate the new ones. Well I love the sound but the shape is horrendous. Several people have tried them with all the tips and they hurt everyone's ears. And yes, we are putting them in the ear correctly lol. I'm gonna sell the trash pro ones.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] myechophone:
Hi all, is there a thread to request a referral for the Samsung device insights? Would love to get one.

Thanks.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] zeCosta:
Same here
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] daviddem:
As of now they havent sent out referral form
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] jkxs:
The price leak for the fold 3 basically confirms there is no chance I can replace my note 8 unless I get selected for insights. Even then, it will be really expensive. If anyone gets their referral email please post so I can try my luck on the survey. If you weren't selected for the Note 20 insights program, maybe you get a better chance for future programs? Oh well.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] AKNOTTS66:
Yeah If the prices are true the fold and flip aren't for me. The Fold starts at $1800? what?? Wow. Will people really pay these prices? I honestly don't want a folding phone unless its like the Surface phone where it is 2 separate screens even then I don't really want it over a note phone. Maybe I will jump to the pixel phones this year, phones are getting way too expensive.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] metroslasher:
It seems that theyre not doing insights program this launch right? Because they usually send demographics survey, but until now, no email was sent to all of us.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] jkxs:
I guess we will know in about 2 hours what price is...
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] AKNOTTS66:
Well it was nice being in the Insights program for the Note 20 Ultra and Tab S7. Seems like there not doing one for the Fold or Flip so far.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] AKNOTTS66:
Probly will trade my note 20 ultra in for the Pixel 5a or Pixel 6. I'd like to stick under $900 for a phone before trade in and I'm still not sure if I'm sold on the folding phones and how expensive they are.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] iMogul:
They had done one for the Flip last year (Apr 2020) and this was late after the launch .
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] AKNOTTS66:
So maybe they will do one. Honestly though, the prices completely turn me off and the flip for what it is, I'd rather just have a s21 or note, the fold maybe is more interesting but even then its $1800 which I'm sorry is just insane for a phone. I'd much rather save the money and get a cheaper phone and a tablet than have the fold. Does anyone else think the fold will honestly sell at these prices? I just don't see it. The S21 sold a lot less than precious models and I think the Fold will be even worse.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] iMogul:
Right now with all the discount and trade in of Note 20 Ultra , the pre-order price for the fold is coming out to be $878 + tax without any cashback or perks at work discount , additional 5% in email if you don't buy but just have it in the cart and close the browser + $200 samsung credit for accessories. Of course if you consider the cash value of the trade in (Note 20 Ultra = $600) the end price is around $1500.

I am waiting for Insights because I don't want to give up my Note 20 Ultra (it is insights free now :) )
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] scorpio_bpl86:
I don't think so I am gonna trade my note 20 ultra for the fold3 as I initially thought. It is just too much to give after all the discount.

Probably going the pixel6 pro route this time.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Saketh123:
Usually the invites should be out by now. The longer they delay, the lower the perks. Currently they offer the 256GB flip 3 for $999 ( Same as 128GB under some storage upgrade credit ). Perks don't stop here. They also offer a $150 credit towards accessories like cases, buds, watch, and more. This promo usually lasts until they start shipping on Aug 27th. I'm not sure there's enough time. I'll just stick to my Fold 2 which I got after trading in my Insights note 10+ last year. P.S ( Samsung replaced my screen free due to fatigue cracks in the middle. This issue is common than you think )... Currently looking forward to the pixel fold only for the fact that they can offer at least 3+ years of OS updates.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] DublinLarry:
Since I am close to the full year with the Note 20 Ultra 5G I went into Samsung Insights and clicked on the Contact Us button and then requested deactivation. SO MUCH better process than the old send 3 emails before they get back to you with a password that only seems to work the 2nd time they send you one.... In my case, about 3 hours after sending the request I got a pushed profile update and then could just go in and uninstall the app.

Now to see if they run a new program that doesn't end up making a ridiculously priced phone only half ridiculously priced. I liked the good old days when the phone was essentially free.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] bschai:
Hi, I am also in the same Note 20 Ultra Samsung insight. I have just sent them the deactivation request after seeing your post.

I read from the previous posts that in addition to getting the deactivation profile pushed to your device, they also need to remove your device from their Knox database or something. Do you know what that is about and how to check that? I want to make sure my phone is totally cleared of the samsung insights/knox thing so that I can resell my phone or trade in. Thanks.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] zeCosta:
so.. no insights?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] DublinLarry:
I think not. When I asked to uninstall the Insights program they said "we do not have any new programs but will consider you for future programs".
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] gpister:
I just got done with my insight program with the Note 20 ultra. Man it was pretty damn simple sent them a message last night and by today morning I noticed my phone being weird for a minute. Than I noticed knox update. I see an email follow the instructions get rid of the app and done deal. So I am done waiting to see what I am going to head to not going for the fold models I am thinking I might go Google Pro 6, or maybe S22 Ultra, I am not seeing hope for the Note series since the Folds are selling so well Samsung might not even try well see. Also is it me (I did do an update it was asking for the phone), I feel the damn phone way smoother now.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] frr1:
just got a email that the samsung insights program has been discontinued
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] DeathlessOne:
I got it too. Wow, it came out of nowhere. It was fun while it lasted guys. RIP Insights.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] jkxs:
I wonder if that means we should start requesting unlocks for the insights app. Kind of a bummer I guess. Only my mom got the note 20u via insights.

My dad got his s21u and s7+ tablet with the front page slickdeal a few months ago.

I got the fold 3 at the last day of pre-orders (had to cancel order from first day of pre-orders because Samsung kept increasing the pre-order freebies and wouldn't edit orders to add, only option was to cancel).
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] DeathlessOne:
They did send a code on the same email to take my S21 Ultra out of the program.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Barzoverbeats:
I've been waiting to hear some updated news on the Insights program, yet this wasn't the news I wanted to hear. It was fun while it lasted.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] dhlspam:
Rest in Peace Samsung Insights Program.

It was a good run Thank you for 8 years of literally free new galaxy phones by flipping it every year.

I love you Samsung. Thank you for your service~!

Now, moving on to Apple.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] runtohell121:
Haven't received any emails... and my S21U and Tab S7 is still stuck in the program. Guess I'll email and hope they'll respond.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] power_book:
Just got the email. RIP insights program.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Kawaisa:
Dear Samsung Insights App Users:

We are sorry to inform you that we are closing down the Samsung Device Insights Program as of Nov 12, 2021. You are no longer required to complete the remaining study period if your device is still under the one-year term in the agreement. You can now trade-in or change your device irrespective of your agreement date.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] starterdc:
I just got the discontinuance email too. Thanks Samsung for all the free phones and tablet throughout the years !
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
How do we fully remove everything again? Knox configure still goes to Samsung and I can't deactivate Knox in admin. Restarted and it reenabled KLSM agent
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] MMakoto:
how many free phones did you get? i only got in from the note 9 which was 50% off, then the note 10+ and now the s21u.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] dhlspam:
factory reset
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
Nope, I had to apply the latest profile like 3 times AFTER removing the app. Knox all gone! Factory reset will come after my new pixel arrives next week. Good riddance, done with Samsung copying crapple. On to better things. Been fun ya'll!
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
I got like 4 or 5 free, and 3 after the 50%
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] dhlspam:
Good tip
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] MMakoto:
i've already uninstalled the device insights app, but when i try to apply the latest profile it says "can't use knox configure". last time i had to reset my phone in order to completely remove knox.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
That's fine, once it says can't use Knox configure, press OK or accept (whatever the yes button is) and it will remove Knox. Check this in software under about phone. Make sure the app is no longer an admin, and any know stuff that you can deactivate is so. All should be fine after doing that. Apply latest profile numerous times if needed
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] AmazingZ:
Any clue why they end the program after 8 years or so?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] starterdc:
I got 2 phones. I think it was the galaxy s6 and s7 and the S7 Tab. I also was accepted once but passed on the invite.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] runtohell121:
I factory reset the S21 Ultra and it auto installed the Samsung Insights app...

Edit: also the same issue with my Tab S7... factory reset and still Knox kicks in to reinstall Samsung Device Insights. Looks like I wasn't removed from their server.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] scorpio_bpl86:
wow ...

RIP Samsung insights

8 years and numerous phones for myself and my family.

Thank you
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] runtohell121:
Besides contacting Samsung Insights team... Not much we can do if Samsung Device Insights app and Knox Configure still kicks in after factory reset?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] starterdc:
I've uninstalled the samsung device app thinking knox would be uninstalled also. How can I tell if Knox has been uninstalled? If I apply new update then it reinstalls the samsung ìnsights app.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] runtohell121:
Unfortunately that would mean our devices are still registered on Samsung Device Insights server... Which is why Knox is still kicking in to reinstall the app. There's nothing we can do as far as I know besides contacting them and hope they respond and remove us on the server side to fully get rid of Samsung Device Insights.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] gpister:
This came super unexpected my mom was in the program. Man I was hoping to score on the Samsung Galaxy S22 ultra I guess going to pay almost full price.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] paynedave315:
Correct
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] K-alz:
That I don't know. It's been a while, they could've updated their app to check if the device is rooted or not. As far as I know, it didn't up until mid June this year. So, I really don't know. One of us has to take the plunge and root then install the app and see. I don't know the level of their tolerance with root. If they'd forgive if I promised to remove root then I'll do it.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
Remember back when I got mine? I emailed and asked if I could root. Their answer was "root is prohibited because it removes functionality of the app". That is a bunch of bull because the app ran fine with root. I had tried root cloak but that blocked the app running at all and got an email from them. So I kept root, and DK on it with no root blocking apps. App ran fine thru time I removed it and never got an email from them saying anything about it. I say try it. If I was getting one, I would.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] K-alz:
Yeah I remember. Same thing happened with me when I used rootcloak. Thing is that I'm worried that they've updated their app to actually detect the root status on the phone. And as I mentioned, I don't known their level of tolerance to root. I don't want to them to go like " Ok, f**k you, send us our phone back" lol
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] scorpio_bpl86:
yes there is no proper root method for the t-mo s6 edge atm
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Joehen873:
Yo guys just a quick question for u guys that r active on here , how many times have u guys been selected for the insights program? ??
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Bubba:
I received the S5 in January. I also received an email survey on a tablet, which I didn't qualify for.

Cowboy from Hell on a twisted trail.

Koffed From my Big Ass Outlaw Phone.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Joehen873:
So u have done it more than once. Thats awesome

---------- Post added at 09:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:21 AM ----------

Yo it says in the email keep the app running do not restart it. What cant u do with the phone with this app running like cant do a factory reset or what else? ??
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] scorpio_bpl86:
i got the s5 last oct-nov i guess ,

yes once you install the app it takes admin rights , you will not be able to do a factory reset
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Joehen873:
Thats what im trying to figure what makes them say to u ," hey send back the phone"???. Like what it is that they tell you that u cant do that will get u dropped??
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] scorpio_bpl86:
just received my Galaxy S6 edge ( t-mobile )

they sent me a 64GB version :D

the letter that the packet contains says the mobile insights app is pre installed on the phone so i dont have to do anything , but i cannot find it for some reason

anyway the phone is getting updated from 5.0.2 to 5.1.1 :)
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Joehen873:
Mine said goto playstore and install mobile insights app and enter a code. So you can install software updates??
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] scorpio_bpl86:
yeah just did the update ....

i still haven't installed the app , i will tomorrow

yes the app was not installed ( but the letter said it is pre installed )

wanted to see how it performs without the app first
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Joehen873:
So 6 months without root huh??

Yo bro do u know what you can and cant do with this while ur on the 6month program??
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] scorpio_bpl86:
yeah , after reading several pages on the s6 edge forums , i cannot find a reliable root method

so i would just use it without root

have you found any root method ?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Joehen873:
What about ping pong root method??
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] K-alz:
[MENTION=3971661]pre4speed[/MENTION] so I've just rooted my note edge then installed the Samsung insights app. Crossing my fingers that they won't email me tomorrow telling me that they see root. Lmao [MENTION=3271517]carl1961[/MENTION] and I tore down the new Samsung insights app and it was identical to the older one and no where does it say "detect root" or even mention root. So, I'm hoping it'd be just like last time and they wouldn't notice the root.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Joehen873:
Yeah I for my s6 edge and I can't find a way to root it anywhere. Also I was looking for the s bookmarks widget did they do away with that??
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] stayley:
Got me sprint s5 in January, rooted and flashed a couple roms. insights worked fine the whole time. No survey for me though. (:

No surveys for the 2 people i referred either.

Oh well at least i got a free phone thanks to the OP here.

Thanks to all of you who shared.

Was it the Galaxy Tab S7 the last device to offer an invite to the insights study?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] runtohell121:
S21 series back in late January/early February I believe.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] power_book:
If they still have Samsung Insights program, they wouldn't have such a hard time selling those S22 Ultra.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] yeeserious:

can anyone provide me a referral to the insights program?

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
Neither has my mom. Had her sign up in January then a few months after she got a response that offered 3 services in an email and the Insights part said they'd keep her name providing she had a referral which she did. However by that time, I had given out 18 referrals and gotten an email stating only 2 were allowed so not sure hers is valid.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] butchieboy:
Bubba whats up bro. Hope all is well for you. Nice to see you hangin somewhere...lol

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Joehen873:
I was never asked for a referral. Emailed them twice about a month ago
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Joehen873:
Hey did they email u saying anything about rooting??
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] K-alz:
Nope. Carl and I checked the new samsung app and it is basically the same exact one so I just went for it. Now running my note edge rooted. Just nothing to flash really. Development is almost dead for this device.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Joehen873:
Same way with my att s6 edge i dont even think i can root it??
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] K-alz:
I thought it was rooted a while ago.

Just received a survey for either a note 4 edge or s6 edge. Said it will take several weeks to determine if I'm accepted. Just wanted to let everyone know to keep an eye out for a possible email if you were previously in the program.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
When were you in the program? I started January last year. Finished in July and been using an LG since.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] sleepwlk78:
I was in the same time as you. We were having the whole root discussion lol. BTW, the new terms stated that rooting will remove you from the program and phone need to be returned. I emailed them a couple weeks stating I was interested in trying out more wonderful samsung products. Lol. I'm currently using lg g4 also.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
Sweet. I was thinking about doing the email thing too. Not like there is any root for AT&T current devices anyway, so oh well. And with all the damn security protocol Google is implementing, root is getting harder and harder. But I'd love to try the Note 4 edge just because lol. Thanks.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
Emailed Friday about a new opportunity to try a device. Got a survey today for S6 or S6 edge but was able to choose a Note 4 edge or other devices.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Joehen873:
Let us know because i was told they r only doing gs6 or gs6 edge as of now
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] sleepwlk78:
I'll definitely let you guys know if I get a response. The survey definitely said note 4 edge because I was torn as to what I wanted to select as my first choice. I want a note but didn't know if I wanted to go down to the 4.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] ILuvRice:
I just got a survey today (been waiting since the end of 2014), it also listed note 4 and note 4 edge as options. I chose s6 edge for first and note 4 edge for second. Hoping they reply back.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] scorpio_bpl86:
i have always tried it during august time and got free phones

i have been doing it since two years

i guess i will try later when there may be an option to select galaxy s7 or the s7 edge
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] pre4speed:
Just got my email stating I'll be getting an S6. Was hoping for the edge but free is free! Check your inboxes!

On another note, wonder if previous participants now get 2 more referrals? Gotta get my mom in on it lol

Glad you got another one. I've not heard anything back yet. Not sure if I want an s6 though if it's not edge.
