As it says that the new requested pin number is send to registered number and email address. So you have to enter that new pin number.

Even I had the same problem while redeeming points at showroom. I tried the very next day and it worked. It seems like the Samsung servers are slow for redeeming points.
[Galaxy S6 General] japjit100:
Purchased used one

I don't using same number which this phone is activated

Purchased it for 31k just 6 days used

If I don't get free charger I don't care
[Galaxy S6 General] somsang:
You can get wireless charger at aliexpress for inr500 and it's not a big deal for person who owns s6 duo. BTW I redeemed points for clear view cover.

Guys,Is the Indian model region locked?Can I use the phone if move to US/Europe?
[Galaxy S6 General] somsang:
Yes it is region locked. But in order to use in Europe you need to use the phone with Indian sim card for 5 minutes.

Any one experiencing heating right side power bottom when playing game

And it also heating when charging

It is common?

What to do . (Called the customer support , they told to write email) .
[Galaxy S6 General] amankapoor4:
i have experienced heating while charging too, could be related to fast charging.

Hey. were your wakelock issues fixed ?
[Galaxy S6 General] amankapoor4:
No mate, just left them as is, the phone does not heat on wireless charger though.
[Galaxy S6 General] Dpk1:
Guys.. I'm facing an annoying issue with my S6. There are frequent call drops throughout the day especially around 11pm. When I use the same airtel sim with my Xperia Z3 then no such issues! I'm on the latest stock Indian firmware (BOE3) with only a few Samsung apps disabled. I even did a complete factory reset with wipe (using recovery) but to no avail. Still having calls dropped! Signal strength in settings menu also appears bugged as it stays at -99dbm (always) no matter where I go. I've also compared 3g data browsing between S6 and Z3 (both having airtel prepaid sims) and have noted no significant difference in browsing speeds via chrome. I'm confused as this network instability on my S6 is especially affecting the calls. It appears as if S6 is simply rejecting / disconnecting any kind of poor signal strength while other phones are holding on to it. Anybody else facing such issue or any pointers to solving this issue?

BTW, I'm using an airtel prepaid nano sim (64k).
[Galaxy S6 General] B$!ngh:
Never had any dropped call. My workplace has very poor signal but no call drops there as well

Though even my signal is on -99dbm
[Galaxy S6 General] Dpk1:
What network and sim type are you using? Does simultaneous 3g data browsing during calls affect the call quality or cause any dropped calls? Maybe I need to get another sim or network altogether.. but I need to be sure it isn't some Samsung bug. I love everything else about my S6 though.
[Galaxy S6 General] 50103:
It is 39K now on Amazon :)

Surely gonna get it now.
[Galaxy S6 General] rkial:
Crazy how the price keeps dropping.

The resale value keeps plummeting too. My plan of getting the new Moto or Nexus in a few months is going to be a lot more expensive than I had hoped for.
[Galaxy S6 General] B$!ngh:
I am using idea postpaid.

Didnt use 3g data simultaneously during calls except for one occasion but the signal was good at that time and call quality was excellent so can't answer that one.
[Galaxy S6 General] PG101:
I use airtel and no issues here

I bought the S6 a few days back.

I was checking the My Rewards app and under Samsung Specials, it says "Free wireless charger with S6"

Clicking Know More says offer is valid for activation till june 30th.

Any idea what I'm supposed to do next? I logged into the My rewards app on Sunday. so it has been 3 days. How do I get the charger?
[Galaxy S6 General] bernard134:
Guys what's the improvement you all observe after that latest S6 / S6 Edge BOE3 update from AOEx firmware? Because in Singapore we are still stuck at AOE4 for both models.
[Galaxy S6 General] B$!ngh:
I think it was available if you registered your s6 till 31 may.

If it is extended then you will get it in deals for you section in my rewards app.

This group is not so active it seems noone interested to discuss about anything about S6
[Galaxy S6 General] rufusj89:
Not really. We're all still here.
[Galaxy S6 General] badelemental:
Actually the thing is everyone is just happy with the device. At least I am. No one is really interested in rooting it as custom ROM might take a while. Anyway I am waiting for the new 5.1 update which should bring the shutter speed control (manual).
[Galaxy S6 General] B$!ngh:
Yeah even I dont want to root in warranty period
[Galaxy S6 General] badelemental:
Well there's a root method which won't trigger KNOX so I think we will be safe. Anyway I don't really see any reason to root now a days.

Details of an Indian Unit

Hi Guys!

Can anyone post the image of Galaxy s6 Box with stickers of an Indian unit. I just want to know the details of 'manufactured by' details and imported by(if any) details of an Indian unit. Also, I want to whether there are any stickers on the Box during the First unboxing of the device. Eg: Indian Unit, Use Indian Sim, Dont accept if seal is Broken.. I need the details to differentiate between the authenticated Indian product and the pirated one from other Market. Thanks! Please Help!!
[Galaxy S6 General] B$!ngh:
You can differentiate fake ones just by looking. Its build quality will be poor.

Here is my box if it helps
[Galaxy S6 General] rajeshjsl:
What in the world ? my also disappeared .

DESPITE i'm still on aoe3 and have not updated to the latest firmware (hell i didn't touch the phone from last 2 days ) . my auto update from google play is off and i closely monitor everything that goes on with the mobile .

How did these toggles disappear ?

Samsung , dafuq ?
[Galaxy S6 General] sathishm07:
Thanks mate for the pic! Ya. I can identify the fake easily.. But the problem is they are selling the original S6 for cheap(1k or 2k less) by importing from other countries(pirated product thru customs or whatever). Even though they are giving me a VAT bill, Samsung wont cover the product under warranty. Some stores are selling the product in this way. So, I asked the details. Did u find any seal or sticker or pamphlet inside to denote an Indian version especially, other than the image you posted above? Thanks for the help!
[Galaxy S6 General] amankapoor4:
Yup it says that
[Galaxy S6 General] sathishm07:
Thanks for the pic mate! I have ordered 64GB Black Sapphire one thru a local store! No stock in my region. Hopefully, I will get by Tuesday! These will help me to confirm the product! Thanks [MENTION=864943]amankapoor4[/MENTION] and [MENTION=6718638]B$!ngh[/MENTION]

Actually you should be beware of s6 units for sale on eBay and other scam sites like olx and quikr
[Galaxy S6 General] sathishm07:

Extra Adaptive Fast Charger

Hey indian Guys. Any budy have extra adaptive samsung fast charger as i want it for charging my s6 at office. .?? Or any online website where I can buy original ( indian with warrenty) Adaptive Fast Charger ??
[Galaxy S6 General] japjit100:
Go to your near samsung cafe you can find it there I think so
[Galaxy S6 General] vulcan4d:
I upgraded from a S4 to the S6 G920I and it doesn't feel like an upgrade. Sure the S6 is a beast but I find it has key issues compared to my old S4. The microphone is weaker, a lot of times people ask me to speak up. Over Skype/Whatsapp voice calls the receiver keeps hearing their own voice as an echo. Lastly I find the 1.9GB data partition to be horribly small and it filled after installing several apps out of the box (no games) meaning it's preloaded with a lot of Samsung stuff that fill the memory. Hopefully a new firmware will resolve the issues, otherwise I think I'll go down to an S5.

[Galaxy S6 General] bulovski:
Hi I got my S6 32gb day before yesterday. I have two questions:

1. Why does my firmware say G920IDVU1AOBQ? Is this the firmware version for India or some other region? Should I install a new firmware?

2. My phone is trying to download some software update worth 262 MB, tried it thrice, but not able to install it. It restarts and shows an android picture and then restarts again, with a message which says not able to install update. Anyone knows what update this is?

Thanks

Hard reset your phone twice. Then go to recovery and wipe cache. This will erase your error in installing updates..

bought a S6 32gb black for 37.5k,opened 4 devices and three of them had pink or green tint in some part of the display and fourth one was a good one with uniform whites....

insisted on getting Sony sensor(IMX240) as both s6 and edge devices made in india from late april and may onwards are carrying ISOCELL sensors so all the devices i insisted on and they opened were made from vietnam.......

--display on S6 is good but nothing significantly diff from note 4

--7420 processor makes S6 definitely better and quicker in every way when compared to note 4

--when compared to LG G4,G4 does produce slightly better images especially in manual mode but diff is minimal S6 does produce better videos and does have better video stabilization

--battery life on G4 was poor,note 4 was epic and yet to check on my s6........................

Sold my phone for a second hand N6

Samsung has a long way to go when it comes to UI. The stutters, lag were driving me crazy. Agree, i go down in terms of camera and screen., but the N6 is silky smooth and has very good battery life, not to mention will be first to get android M. Coudn't be happier with my choice. Also s6 has crappy resale value.

[Galaxy S6 General] KevFernandes:
Electronics are a perfect example of Demand and Supply Price reactions, the more the demand the less price drops and viv, the reason prices fall so substantially is because the company already has such a large margin and they don't mind sacrificing a little of that margin to get rid of the inventory and if it was not a known fact most electronic giants (except Xiaomi and OPO) have lots of money blocked in inventory and inventory platforms i.e warehouses, so ya there is your ans. most smart people wait it out and don't become early adopters unless you are purchasing an iPhone cos that's the only gadget that realistic-ly loses value gracefully.

I own the S6 and its a keeper so no point crying over spilled milk so enjoy ur devices guys.
[Galaxy S6 General] smartjain:
Do agree with everything you have said. Samsung is going to further lower the price to get more sales before the launch of Note 5.

I agree too, Ringke is what i had on all my phones from the Nexus 4 all the way to the S6 and iPhone 6, but the Rhinoshield has its merits check out the drop tests done by Erica Griffin on YouTube it'll be the deciding factor for you, plus the form factor of these cases are different one is a hybrid and the other is a bumper so ya..you cant go wrong with either.

[Galaxy S6 General] amankapoor4:
ah not cool, though my S6 also usualy gives me a SOT of around 3 hrs, that probably means G4 will give even less.

Nothing i think beats G2 for the battery life it got to table, one of the best phones i ever used.

LG G2 was in a league of its own the camera the screen and the battery life was mind blowing, i didnt enjoy the interface much but nothing a good launcher couldnt solve, i prefer the Nova launcher but Action Launcher + is taking its place fast on my phone.
