[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] marianobe:
Hi guys. I'm about to purchase a phone in Amazon (Samsung-Galaxy-G900M-Unlocked-Phone -can't post the link-) and the seller specified that in order to use it outside the US I have to make a 20 minute call while still in american soil. Is this absolutely necessary? I'm delivering the phone to a friend's hotel (he's on holiday there) and I wouldn't want to make him go through all the hassle of buying a prepaid sim-card and have him call some number for 20 minutes.

Thanks!

hey guys, kicking around replacing a super tired 10.1 tab samsung. it still works, but feels like its chugging and the lack of memory is killing the thing for sure.

i see the 10.5 s retails for about $400, is this still a good tab to purchase ?? anything new next week or month that i will kick myself for not waiting ?? any others to consider ??

thanks so very much for any help or opinions here,

Joel

I own the 16GB gold trim LTE variant.

Yes, this is still the best tablet money can buy.

Thinner and lighter than any iPad.

Rock solid build.

Beautiful AMOLED display.

Now it has Android 5.0.2 update.

I'm seriously considering buying the 8.4" LTE version as well to replace my phone.

400$ is a quite good price.

I have just bought it with 530$ :(
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RockTheGradle:
It gets laggy and you have to wipe cache.. We do have CyanogenMod but that voids your warranty. I am regretful

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cbb77:
I agree, I personally would not buy a 4:3 tablet either. Looks like Samsung is just copying Apple once again. I think the current Tab S 10.5 is a killer, and one of the best tablets money can buy right now. I would encourage you to get this over the new model. However I would indeed wait to pick it up on sale. I have seen it on sale multiple times at $100 off. You have both Back to School sales coming up as well as the announcement of the new Tabs. Once the new Tabs come out, they will probably discount these as well. I believe in the philosophy that newer does not always mean better. Which I think may be the case for the new Tabs.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vndnguyen:

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 3DSammy:
Don't forget get that the S2 doesn't come with their flag ship processor (think S6), still only has Android 5.0.2 and a smaller battery. The early reviews are already questioning Samsung's reasoning for this new version. Although the price is not official yet the reviewers are pointing to price along with the specs as big detractor. I've only had my S1 for a few months and that was solely based on the S2s move to a 4:3 aspect ratio but now I feel like I won the lottery as I bought it for $70 less retail.

Start looking for S1 sales and avoid what is shaping up to be a looser.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fifthelement:
You can buy it for about $300 on swappa or ebay right now.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeyTG:
You can get the new tab S2 9.7" for $400 at Best Buy if you trade in a working tablet ($100 off). I traded in a kindle HD 8.9 and got the $100 discount even though it's trade in value was about $20.

In big parts of Europe we get either a cover or a keyboard-cover with our tab s2 9,7

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Akopps:
You get sd card slot and good screen but you get poor processor and poor battery life. It's good device for watching video, because of wide screen and a good battery life, but kinda poor for many other tasks. I'd consider a 32GB Nexus 9.

---------- Post added at 11:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:31 AM ----------

The claim that you lose warranty after rooting the device or installing a custom ROM is utter non-sense. Samsung can call its knox system whatever it wants, but this claim will never stand in a real court.

Not sure this has been asked before, but I was unable to find anything, so if this has been answered, please direct me to the right thread.

I receive message notifications from Whatsapp on my Gear 2, but nothing when I get a Whatsapp call, only a 'missed call' notification afterwards if I do not answer. I could not find any way to enable this. In fact the same thing happens with Skype, I receive message notifications but no call notifications.

I assume there is nothing that can be done, any ideas?
[Samsung Gear 2] HSishi:
The Gear 2 Neo doesn't catch the calls directly, neither from What'sApp nor from Skype. The Gear Manager can only catch the after-call notifications when What'sApp and Skype generate them on the phone's Notification bar.

Until these apps support Wearable's from within the apps or at least generate a notification event when calls happen, you will have to live with that :( .

I upgraded my Galaxy S5 to lollipop (via OTA and rooted it) and I plugged in my car's aux cable into my phone to play music and... nothing. Mind you, it worked the same day before I upgraded. Now nothing ive tried in other cars and is the same thing over AUX it works on bluethoot but not on AUX. My earbuds work with it, my headphones work with my phone. When i plug in different media to the car, it works just fine. But my S5 plugged into my car. Nope, nothing.

UPDATE: I downgraded to KitKat and the audio works again. This obviously doesn't count as a fix though.

[T-Mobile LG G4] rockerrock:
I just wanted to vent a bit about my consumer experiences with my local T-Mobile store.

On 6/30, I went in and purchased a LG G4. Upon swiping my credit card, the POS froze which led to me standing around for an hour and a half while the store employees debated allowing me to leave with my purchase. Funds were deducted from my account.

As the POS froze and no reciept was generated, I was advised to go home and call T-Mobile cx support to ask for one to be emailed. This turned into me running into the store several times as there is absolutely no record of my purchase apart from the POS transaction history.

The deciding factor for me to purchase the LG G4 was the promotions that provided things such as free batteries, SD card, and so on. There were a total of two promos I could apply for. The issue? As I never received a receipt, I was ineligible to receive the advertised promotions.

Upset, I returned to the store and inquired about a refund with no restocking fee for my troubles. Another 45 minutes of standing around, the store Mgr told me under no circumstance could I return the device without a restocking fee. I was given a "Purchase Order" as my reciept (another 30 minutes of standing around) and was advised this would work as the "receipt". I was also advised that I could apply for the new promo that started on 7/1.

Another rejection from the Promo deal site as the "purchase order" is not a valid receipt. I'm so fed up by now, I called customer service and was granted a $50 credit on my account to cover the restocking fee and went back in the store to refund the G4.

Well.. It's been over a week and I'm still waiting for the refund. My bank advises me that there is no pending transactions (should show by the 3rd business day max). Went back into the store to waste another hour (took my laptop with me this time and found a quiet place to sit and work). I'm currently emailing the store Mgr as asked by today to request a "Help Desk" ticket to be put in to force the refund.

This whole experience has been absolutely awful and I'm stuck not only without the phone I wanted - the promo items advertised but also my $400.

WTF T-Mobile?!
[T-Mobile LG G4] rockerrock:
Well.. They are going to wire it directly into my bank account (and if I didn't want to share the info, they would of mailed a prepaid Visa).

In another 3-5 business days, we will see!
[T-Mobile LG G4] Chosen_on184:
You should probably tweet this out to Tmobile CEO on twitter. He is pretty active on there and also include T force(Tmobile twitter team). Once he gets involved I guarantee you would get a resolution in under an hour.

Took me almost 5 weeks to get my refund through T-Mobile. Rep told me it would take about a month. Perhaps you would have similar situation.
[T-Mobile LG G4] littlegreenalien:
took a month for me to get refund,what in reccomend if you want it faster is to contact tmobile usa on twitter and tell them youj want your money to buy another phone and in like a week in a half you should have it in your bank account,there going to ask for your account# and routing#,best way to do it

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jordyboy123:
Hi all... I thought I would start a new thread based on long term usage of the LG G3, and how I've started to experience screen burn. I've had the International LG G3 D855 since the week it was launched.

I've rooted my phone and currently use CloudyG3, with stock kernel.

It has not been over-clocked, under-clocked or tweaked any way other than the Root and ROM.

Anyway, I've always been concerned with the temperature that the phone gets during heavy use and now it's here...the dreaded problem. On the lefthand side of my screen I have noticed that the screen is now starting to burn a yellow tint, that for the most part you won't notice but on white background or apps is highly evident and is getting worse ?

I wanted to see if any heavy users are starting to see the same effects? I'm guessing the over heating problem is causing a long term issue.

I will post a picture when I have my camera available.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] copy2050:
its normal and i think it will happen with other G3 owners who dont know much how to prevent this problems...

i have my G3 only about 3 months and even i'm in guarantee time i search for some type of mod to do some precaution with the device, i feel my device too hot even in messages and music app, so i find a video tutorial to fix the problem of overheat, its simple to do, other user find there's a gap between the processor and the back of display support, and its safe to do...only thing is to buy good thermal compound, the same you use on your desktop computer and apply it between that gap!

see the video and think if you are able to do, if you are, i recomended to do as fast as you can: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PH5wCeootNI

the G3 is easy, very easy to dissasembly so...with some caution and pacience you will give to your device a new life, but the burn-in part of your display will not be the same sure, but is better to be safe or buy a new screen i think!

[Galaxy S6 General] lugiank:
Hi guys, after reading on this forum that probably EU customers will not lose warranty if they trip KNOX i decided to investigate on this.

At first i found European Directive 1999/44/EC that you can find here: eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=CELEX:31999L0044:en:HTML

Then i directly contacted Samsung Italy: at first they told me i would lose warranty if i trip KNOX, BUT after telling them about EU Directive they told me this:

Gentile Sig. Giancarlo,

la ringrazio per la sua precisazione.

Sono certo anche io che l'alterazione del software non possa aver danneggiato fisicamente il pulsante Home.

Tuttavia per policy aziendale Samsung, i telefoni che entrano in assistenza ricevono una riparazione completa.

Ogni smartphone Samsung, consegnato al centro assistenza, viene periziato, se la problematica non è causata da fattori esterni, si procede con la riparazione gratuita, diversamente verrà emesso un preventivo accompagnato da perizia effettuata.

Al termine della riparazione la garanzia continuerà il suo corso.

You can translate this with google Italian -> English

So, if you bricked your device rooting (software problem) they will charge you for fixing it, BUT any physical problem that is not root related they will fix it for free

I am going to attach all screenshot of me talking with samsung
[Galaxy S6 General] godutch:
Actually Samsung can deny you warranty if you have tripped Knox, it is your retailer who cannot deny you your statutory warranty after Knox is tripped
[Galaxy S6 General] Jonathan-H:
Good luck arguing any of this and in paying legal fees if you decide to fight them. Waste of time and effort.
[Galaxy S6 General] Faspaiso:
I'm "figthing" them. They just answered to Danish customer service, that it's my own fault. So now my phone is going through a check soon from an expert.
[Galaxy S6 General] lugiank:
No legal fees actually since no lawyer is needed and it's entirely managed by EU
[Galaxy S6 General] apseudonym:
Actually (and I can't speak for everyone, obviously) I have a G920P (Sprint Variant, US) and I got a repair under warranty with Knox tripped. I returned everything to stock before I sent it in. That being said, the issue with my phone were purple dots on the front facing camera, and problems focusing the rear facing camera. As far as I can tell, that's a relatively well-known set of problems with the phone hardware, so that might have helped my case. I didn't get any sort of e-mails back saying I owed anything, and I had my phone back within a week and a half.
[Galaxy S6 General] Aircondition:
I have tripped knox and I still got warranty, europe is diffrent unlike US. Did you seruously thought you would loose warranty just by tripping knox?

My repair is finished just waiting for it to arrive tomorrow. I live in Sweden.
[Galaxy S6 General] LNJ:
You guys are exaggerating a non issue!

They don't look to see if your phone tripped Knox if you send it in.

You don't need to mention that you tripped Knox either!

If you want to point out that you tripped it, then it's your fault for giving them a reason to void your warranty!
[Galaxy S6 General] Faspaiso:
Yeah sure. Just like they wanted me to pay 295.26 USD for a new circuit board, because my knox was tripped. (not when handed in the phone.) Just because of some pink dots on the camera.
[Galaxy S6 General] LNJ:
Then you should have asked them to proof that tripping Knox broke the hardware. The burden of proof is on them. Not you!

It's like saying I got a custom tune for my cars after I modded the ECU and then my brakes broke and the manufacturer voided my warranty because I custom tuned my car!
[Galaxy S6 General] Faspaiso:
I know that stuff. They didn't care. I have a case open with danish customer service right now. They're looking into it. I know the burden of proof is on them the first 6 months, but I can't force them to repair without a judge saying i'm right.

It's the big vs the small guy here. I don't have much to say and don't want to lose my phone for a year (for an expert checking it) just to win the case.

If Samsung get a reason to charge you, they will.
[Galaxy S6 General] godutch:
I think I said this before but your fight is with your retailer, not samsung, your retailer is denying you your statutory warranty. You have no relation with samsung and samsung not with you...
